According to Business Insider, the app will listen to your cough and use AI to make the potential diagnosis.

According to physicians, the COVID-19 cough sounds different than other types of coughs.
Coughvid is indevelopment at École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne.
So far researchers have gathered more than 15,000 audio samples of coughs to train its AI.
