No need for guess work any more. Here is a ready to use checklist of all the commonly emergency items, divided into essential and optional categories. Add your own items and customize this list. An emergency can be due to natural disasters, pandemics, bad weather conditions, or any unforeseen circumstances. Always be prepared with emergency items stock. Have a few weeks worth of food and supplies reaady in case there is no access to food, water, and other daily necessities. As we have seen time and time again, when an emergency situation arrives, people start panicking. This last minutes panic leads to confusion for everyone. And not knowing how to prepare for such a situation results in buying and storing unnecessary items, or too many items, while missing on items which might be necessary. This also puts pressure on other people around who cannot find them items they need. This app is designed exactly to solve this problem. With this app you can get an exact estimate of what you need to buy and in what quantity. In one simple glance it gives you all the necessary information. This app also allows you to put expiry dates on your items so you get notified in advance before the expiry date is approaching. Purpose behind this is that you don't let your perishable items go to waste, consume them well in time and replenish them. Our bigger goal is to enable distribution of emergency supplies in a smart way by connecting suppliers of items and people who need them, and avoid mass panic and confusion in last minute. If everyone incorporates this simple app in their lives and put it to use, which hardly takes 15-20 minutes or maybe half an hour, this goal will be achieved sooner than later.
