Challenge

A safety app has to work every time—lives depend on it. The hard parts: accurate background location tracking, instant alert delivery, privacy-first design, and consistent behavior across iOS, Android, and Web. Location queries have to run fast without draining the battery.

02

Solution

HerCircle is a Flutter app with a Supabase backend for real-time sync. The safety loop shares a journey with trusted contacts, fires a silent alert when the ETA is exceeded, and offers a fake call to get out of an unsafe situation. Geospatial queries in PostgreSQL drive the location features.

03

Results

  • Cross-platform (iOS, Android, Web)
  • Real-time journey sharing with circle members
  • Silent alert system with immediate notification
  • Fake call disguise feature
  • Advanced geospatial queries
  • Real-time subscriptions via Supabase
  • 5-step verification onboarding
