Living safe

About this Project

Our project, LivingSafe addresses helping young users alone have safely without harm. Our app uses AI and crowd sourced data to indicate safe zones for users. It also provides travel tips and recommendations for users. It is targeted for 11-18 year olds traveling alone. Features include contact calling, SOS buttons, AI-generated navigation tools with safety notifications, travel planning, and AI chat.

What the Judges are Saying

First off, great job! Your apps mission to keep kids and teens safe is a very important one. Using a personal example to demonstrate the apps user experience was a great touch as well!

When designing an app it's important thing to note possible collaborations and connections you can make with other applications. This can help take workload off of you, and delegate features to others. Plus it allows users to get the benefits of multiple app's features. For example, your app could have a way to connect to Life 360 or a similar app that provides friends and family with live location tracking and sharing.

Great work! Keep on innovating :)
You did a great job of highlighting why this app is needed in this community -- crafting a compelling pitch is hard to do! A next step to consider making this a reality might include looking at other apps for inspiration, and they may not be obvious. For example, Waze is a traffic/driving app which surfaces live traffic updates on their map. Since LivingSafe is also a location-based app, there is a lot you would be able to pull from. I think this is a valuable idea and something the target demographic can certainly benefit from. Perhaps there could be a partnership with an emergency safety whistle company like Birdie?
