In this tutorial we will build an app that can be used in an emergency situation. It allows the user to capture their location, to take a photo, to record a message and send these in a message to a trusted person.
The app is taught for educational purposes only and in case of a real emergency contact your local emergency authorities to seek help.
The starter file for this app can be downloaded from:
