2. Overview

PulseTrackr is an iPhone community safety app for nearby incident awareness, crowd-sourced reports, map-based filtering, community verification, and trusted-contact SOS alerts.

Current App Model

  • SwiftUI app for iPhone
  • Firebase backend for reports, anonymous authentication, storage, cloud functions, and App Check
  • Mapbox map support with Apple map fallback surfaces in the app code
  • Optional evidence attachments: photo and voice note
  • No advertising, external payments, subscriptions, or in-app purchases in the current app

3. Core Functionality

  • Map: View active reports near the user and inspect incident details.
  • Feed: Browse reports inside a selected watch radius and filter by urgency or category.
  • Report: Submit a community incident report with classification, status, location, optional photo, and optional voice note.
  • Community signals: Mark reports as seen, not seen, unsafe, road blocked, or cleared.
  • SOS: Add trusted contacts and activate SOS location updates to selected contacts.
  • Settings: Manage watch radius, alert filters, report-location privacy, precise location status, and SOS contacts.

4. User-Generated Content

PulseTrackr includes user-generated incident reports, optional evidence, and community verification signals.

  • Reports are intended for local safety awareness, not entertainment or public shaming.
  • Public report fields are limited to safety-relevant incident information and approximate location when enabled.
  • Backend rate limits reduce report and signal abuse.
  • Public Firestore records are read-only to clients; writes go through Cloud Functions.

5. Privacy and Permissions

  • Location: Required for nearby reports, report submission, and SOS location updates.
  • Contacts: Used only when importing a trusted contact for SOS.
  • Microphone: Used only when recording an optional report voice note.
  • Photos: Used only when choosing an optional report photo.
  • Anonymous authentication: Used for backend authorization, rate limits, App Check, and abuse prevention.
  • App privacy: The public privacy policy is available at the PulseTrackr privacy document.

6. Safety Positioning

PulseTrackr should be reviewed as a community safety information app, not as an emergency dispatch, medical, police, or rescue service.

  • The app clearly states that it does not automatically contact police, ambulance, fire, or emergency services.
  • SOS alerts are sent to user-selected trusted contacts only.
  • Users in immediate danger should contact local emergency services directly.
  • Incident information may be unconfirmed and should be treated as community-sourced awareness.

7. Business Model

PulseTrackr is currently a free app with no in-app purchases, subscriptions, third-party advertising, or external payment flow.

Description starter

PulseTrackr helps you stay aware of safety reports near you. View active incidents on a map, adjust your watch radius, submit reports with optional photo or voice evidence, and use community signals to help others understand what is happening nearby. For personal safety, add trusted contacts and activate SOS to share exact location updates with them when needed.

9. Suggested Review Notes

Suggested App Review note:

PulseTrackr is a community safety incident reporter. The app uses location to show nearby reports and to submit reports. Users can hide exact public report location; public report pins may be offset while exact reporter coordinates are retained only for private backend workflows. Optional photo and voice evidence can be attached by the user. The SOS feature alerts user-selected trusted contacts and does not automatically contact police, ambulance, fire, or other emergency services. To test, allow location access, open the Map or Feed tabs, submit a report from the Report tab, add a trusted contact in Settings, and activate/cancel SOS from the app interface.
