Pepper Spray

To make women feel more comfortable on public transportation and reduce the risk of harassment.

Comment

Inspiration

We wanted to create a safe space for women who may feel uncomfortable using public transportation. From personal experience, we've felt this way before, and we feel as if there needed to be an app created to combat this issue. We haven't seen other apps like ours, so we hope that this can make a difference!

What it does

An app where women can communicate to see who's going to the same destination so that they can travel together.

How we built it

Using Java, Android Studio, and Uizard

Challenges we ran into

Android Studio code was slow and had several bugs.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

We created a realistic model of what we wanted our app to look like, and started creating it on Andriod Studio.

What we learned

We learned how to authenticate users before using our app in order to ensure users' safety.

What's next for Pepper Spray

Creating a functional prototype of the app with real-time updates for users and also to get it into the app store!
