Protect My Family (React Native)
MVP mobile app for family location tracking with SOS, geofencing, and local notifications. Optional Docker backend for auth and family management; data can stay on-device or sync later.
Problem
Families need a simple way to stay aware of each other’s safety—quick SOS, zone alerts, and notifications—without committing to a heavy cloud stack for an early MVP.
Solution
Built a React Native MVP with SOS flows, geofencing, and local notifications. Auth and family management can use an optional backend packaged with Docker; tracker data lives in AsyncStorage locally first, with room to add sync when needed.
Architecture
- Location tracking with geofencing rules and SOS triggers
- Local notifications for alerts and reminders
- Optional API for authentication and family groups (Docker)
- AsyncStorage for on-device persistence; sync-ready architecture for a later phase
