I think this is an app that would have been useful if I was in school! I like how you planned your survey timing. It would have been nice also to see the thinking behind the problem this solves, if people were tripping or had issues on stairs. But overall I liked the app!

I think it's a start but I would have liked to see some data on how crowded stairwells actually are at first. Why not just use a webcam and show the image of the stairwell in realtime to know how crowded it is?

This is a good project, and it would have helped me when I was in high school.
