Covi

No longer maintained

Covi is no longer maintained. It no longer receives feature updates or routine maintenance, and existing features may not work properly. This documentation is compiled from public instructions published while the service was running and from the app’s source code, and is for reference only. For duty records and dormitory rules, the information from the university’s dormitory services office takes precedence.

Covi (New Southbound Duty Lookup) is a self-service duty lookup system built for New Southbound international students at a university in southern Taiwan. It lets students check their own dormitory duty (disciplinary) records and clearance status more quickly. The system was built by YuCts (櫻佑旅遊) together with the university’s dormitory services office. After testing in the university’s Department of Information Management, the website launched its 2.0 interface, and a LINE official account was offered at the same time. Later, the iPhone, iPad, and Mac app “CnuCOVI” and a Windows version were released.
