Overview

ResqShield is a family safety application providing real-time location tracking and emergency response. Built with Flutter over a Node.js + MySQL backend, it integrates Google Maps for precise tracking and WhatsApp for alerts.

A dedicated Women's Safety Mode activates automatically at night, and the SOS system speeds up emergency response through quick alerts and automated location sharing, with continuous location updates and fail-safe shutdown.
