Raksha

Raksha (meaning "Protection" in Sanskrit) is an advanced Android safety application designed to provide users with immediate assistance in emergency situations. It utilizes real-time location tracking, background services, Twilio SMS integration, and Firebase Cloud Functions to ensure reliable, instantaneous alerts even when the app is minimized or closed.

✨ Features

- 🚨 Panic Button Overlay: A persistent, floating widget (via PanicOverlayService) that allows users to trigger an SOS from any screen without opening the app. - ⏱️ Timed Safety Check: Set a timer before entering a risky situation. If you don't mark yourself "Safe" before the timer expires, an SOS is automatically triggered via Firebase Cloud Tasks (even if your phone dies). - 📍 Live Location Sharing: Real-time continuous location broadcasting to selected emergency contacts using foreground services (LiveLocationService). - 🗺️ Safe Zones & Proximity Alerts: Geofencing capabilities that notify loved ones when you arrive or leave designated safe zones (ProximityAlertService). - 📞 Fake Call: Generates a realistic simulated incoming call to help users discreetly escape uncomfortable situations. - 🏥 Medical ID: Stores critical health information (blood type, allergies, medications) accessible instantly during emergencies. - 📡 Offline SOS Failsafe: Utilizes Android's WorkManager (SosWorker) to queue SOS requests if the network is unavailable, dispatching them immediately upon reconnection.
