The government says 27,600 check-ins have also been reported and 1420 venues have generated QR codes.
The system helps health officials trace people who may have come into contact with the coronavirus.
Information is only stored for 28 days and only accessed if contact tracing is required.
Chief Minister Michael Gunner said the app had proven itself to be a fast and hassle-free way to stay on top of contact tracing.
"This is about making life easier for Territory businesses, not harder, and it will ensure the economy keeps ticking over, and that locals remain in jobs," he said.
"To those who are using other methods of contact tracing - keep doing what you're doing."
The Northern Territory has only recorded 60 coronavirus cases, all linked to returned travellers.
It currently has 13 active cases. All were acquired overseas and are in quarantine.
