Inspiration

Our lovely moms always reminding us to bring stuff when coming home, especially bread

What it does

This app tracks your gps position whenever someone in your house makes an alert needing anything. When you get close to the shop (whose location you define via maps) it will remind you so your mom isn't upset.

How we built it

Using Android Studio, the Firebase cloud service and a node.js server running in a heroku instance.

Challenges we ran into

How to continously track position, how to manage background services, net communication from Android..

Accomplishments that we're proud of

An app that runs in the background and has accurate position tracking and managing multiple user interfaces synchronized with a database, and push notifications.
