description This paper discusses the unending coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. The activity of detecting, testing those with symptoms and isolating their contacts is the most effective method of stopping the chain of coronavirus infection. The importance of the study is to identify smartphone applications that can track the movement of individuals in an effort to curb the spread of COVID-19, especially in Malaysia. This research method used a literature review, which included new insights into the quality of action and scientific papers. It synthesized information gleaned from a variety of sources. The findings of the study are that the Government of Malaysia has launched three main applications to track the movement of individuals, namely Gerak Malaysia, MyTrace, MySejahtera. Similarly, every state in Malaysia has its own state government application to track individual movements. Overall, Malaysia is one of the countries in the world that has successfully curbed the spread of COVID-19. COVID- 19 cases in Malaysia are under control.
