The app

Ten chapters, from Hour Zero and Water to First Aid & Home Care and Safe & Sound, readable with no signal.
Who lives with you and what each person needs, two meeting points, an out-of-area contact, other contacts and where the water main, gas valve and electrical panel are. Print it or share it as a PDF.

A water calculator, a fridge and freezer timer, a signal light that flashes SOS with the screen, and an outage log.
