A Pebble watch app created during the AngelHack Seattle 2015 hackathon.
Team: Yves Chan, Ha Nguyen, Vincent Chan, Hoi Ting (Ting Ting) Tai

This app acts as a silent alarm for individuals facing potential domestic violance. Through the convience and subtletly of a Pebble watch, a user could call for help when they feel threatened simply by pressing a short pattern on their watches (currently programmed to a long down and then an up on the watches up and down buttons on the right). This then sets off three actions:

  • sends texts asking for help with the user's current location to 3 listed emergency contacts,
  • initiates a call to the police, and
  • locates the nearest hospital.

The Android Companion App ([found here] (https://github.com/ttingt/SupportedAndroidCompanion)) also features top tweets on Twitter relating to Domestic Violence in hopes to convey a sense of community and ability to reach out.
