The security of girls and women is a serious
issue faced by society. Crimes against women such as
sexual abuse, domestic violence, or eve teasing are
growing in number day by day. In such a gloomy
situation, a smartphone can be looked into as a great help.
This project attempts to create an Android app that can
help to protect women in any situation they might face in
their everyday life. We have designed, implemented, and
tested an Android application that comprises various
security measures which can be explored by women in a
few steps on the screen, and can get quick and easy access
to help. It uses GPS location tracking to provide a simple
and fast way for the registered contacts to know that the
user is in trouble and for them to reach the user easily. It
also provides safety features such as a GPS tracking of the
user, sending help messages to the registered numbers of
the app, and emergency contact numbers which can be
used to directly contact via a voice call to trusted people
of users whose numbers are saved in the application.
