Valora

Our project offers a quick, practical, and efficient way to call for help in risky situations. Through an accessible and intuitive platform, we connect the person in danger to family, friends, and responsible institutions.
The SOS button, with a 5-second timer, prevents accidental activations and sends the alert automatically, speeding up the response. More than technology, we seek to guarantee safety, support, and immediate assistance, reducing response time and helping to protect lives when every second counts.

Learning Journey

Learning Journey

Our team learned to work together, divide tasks, and listen to different opinions. We faced technical challenges, such as developing functionalities and integrating location services, and we overcame these through testing, research, and the support of programming tools. We also had non-technical challenges, such as organization and communication, which we solved through planning and collaboration. Testing with family and friends was essential for improving the application. In the end, we learned that persistence, teamwork, and adaptation are fundamental to transforming an idea into a real solution.

Information Legitimacy Description

Our team ensured the information was legitimate by using reliable sources such as official organizations, research reports, and trusted websites. We compared data from different sources to confirm accuracy and avoided using information without clear references. When possible, we prioritized recent and well-documented content. We also tested ideas in practice through user feedback, which helped validate our decisions. This process allowed us to base our project on accurate, trustworthy, and relevant information.

Ethics

We considered ethics as the foundation of the app, prioritizing user safety and respect. We protect personal data and only use what is necessary, always with consent. The SOS button and location features were designed to help in real situations, with a timer to prevent mistakes. We also aim to be accessible and easy to use. Our goal is to provide a safe, reliable tool that helps without exposing those in need.
