I do want to know whether I am exposed to COVId and get to be quarantined to not spread out the covid to others who I really take care of. Dont want to be a person that possibly make my family or friends sick.

Most people do. However, the precision of the Israeli system (Based IIUC on cell tower triangulation) was not good, meaning you'd have a nontrivial chance of getting randomly get flagged for 14 days quarantine (with legal consequences for not doing so); Some people were flagged multiple times within 3 months, and it's not entirely clear what the rate of FP was, but it was nontrivial.
