What if you don’t have a smart phone? Or hell, what about one that’s 5+ years old? Are they just SoL?

Most likely you are SoL. By the sounds of it they simply won't let you into the country unless you can show that you've installed their covid tracking app

Wow. Just pretty insane we're at that point.

I have a smart phone and generally against telling people how to host their events... but requiring smart phones with tracking apps on them to do X or Y for the "pursuit of progress" is pretty dystopian.

Remember, that you want something from them (entering the country). They can refuse you if they don't like your old-fashioned lifestyle.

Sol is the star of the Solar system, the home system of the human species.

On a more serious note: “Shit/Sorry, Outta Luck!”
