505 Emergency - Empowering Hope, Saving Lives

Inspiration:

Empowering Hope, Saving Lives: SOS Emergency, we desired to assist those in dangerous situations with a safer way to contact help.

What it does:

It is an interactive app that the user can use to 'check in' when in a situation where they may be in danger, notifying an emergency contact or the authorities if they do not keep checking in.

How we built it:

Using Flutter, we made an Android and iOS mobile application with a button to press in an emergency.

Challenges we ran into:

Since it's the first time for every one of us in Hackathon, we have challenges in Github, Flutter, UI/UX, and even in Terminal.

Accomplishments that we're proud of:

We created the whole app that works with Flutter, mainly we worked as a 'team' which is the prior thing for us, as we were good at SDLC.

What we learned:

We learned to work in teams using GitHub, and how not to use GitHub. We learned Flutter the most.

What's next for 505 Emergency:

We wanted to add live location sharing along with sending an SMS option to the emergency contact and required authorities if needed.
