Show HN: Offline SOS signaling+recovery app for disasters/wars(https://github.com/nizarmah/igatha)162 points|nizarmah|5 days ago|89 commentsA couple of months ago, I built this app to help identify people stuck under rubble.First responders have awesome tools. But in tough situations, even common folks need to help.After what happened in Myanmar, we need something like this that works properly.It has only been tested in controlled environments. It can also be improved; I know BLE is not _that_ effective under rubble.If you have any feedback or can contribute, don't hold back.
