Every time an earthquake occurs, cellular networks are destroyed and signals are lost - along with lives.
Life Signal is an app that allows people in disaster areas to quickly pinpoint the exact GPS location of ten members in their “safe group” aka a list of up 10 contacts than can be preconfigured on any smartphone, even when networks are down and communication between them is impossible. This allows loved ones to reunite and first responders to discover survivors quicker than ever before.
Life Signal was developed for UNACEM, Peru's biggest concrete factory.
