As Shark Sightings, & Outdoor Hazards Make Headlines, New App Aims to Help People Stay Safe
The Californer/10353115

SAN DIEGO - Californer -- From fast-moving wildfires and extreme weather to shark sightings, venomous snakes, dangerous surf conditions, toxic plants, and other unexpected hazards, many people are asking the same question before heading outdoors:

"What should I be watching out for?"

A new app currently in development, What Can Kill Me™, is designed to help answer that question.

What Can Kill Me™ is an interactive, location-based safety platform that allows users to discover, report, and share hazards they encounter in the real world. Whether you're hiking, camping, traveling, boating, surfing, or simply exploring a new area, the app is being built to provide real-time awareness of potential dangers nearby.

The platform is designed to help users identify hazards such as:

• Wildfires and smoke
• Shark sightings
• Venomous snakes and spiders
• Toxic plants and mushrooms
• Dangerous wildlife
• Flooding and severe weather
• Unsafe water conditions
• Trail hazards
• Infrastructure dangers
• Other location-based safety threats

Unlike traditional navigation apps, What Can Kill Me™ focuses on helping people become aware of risks before they unknowingly walk, drive, or travel into them.
