The problem Lady Buddy solves

By Designing and develop a Women safety app that automatically senses the danger to a mobile user and triggers an SOS alert with location details based on multimodal data from a mobile device such as audio, video, image, motion detection etc., given a situation that the user is not able to operate the mobile.

Challenges I ran into

API Integration:

To overcome the challenges related to API integration, I adopted the following strategies:
a) Thorough Research: I conducted extensive research on the API documentation to gain a clear understanding of its endpoints, request methods, and response formats. This allowed me to familiarize myself with the API's functionalities and identify any potential ambiguities.

b) Effective Communication: In cases where I encountered uncertainties or inconsistencies in the API documentation, I reached out to the API provider for clarification. By effectively communicating my concerns and seeking clarification, I was able to address any ambiguities and ensure a smoother integration process.

c) Robust Error Handling: I implemented a comprehensive error handling mechanism to handle various API response scenarios gracefully. This involved mapping different error codes and messages to appropriate user-friendly notifications or error screens, ensuring a better user experience.

Dependencies Issues:

To overcome challenges related to managing dependencies, I implemented the following strategies:
a) Compatibility Checks: Before integrating a dependency, I thoroughly researched its compatibility with other libraries and existing codebase. This helped me identify potential conflicts or compatibility issues in advance, allowing me to make informed decisions about dependencies.

b) Timely Updates: I regularly monitored updates for the dependencies I used. Whenever a new version was released, I carefully reviewed the release notes and changelogs to identify any breaking changes or potential issues. By staying proactive and keeping my dependencies up to date, I ensured the integration of bug fixes, security patches, and new features.

c) Dependency Optimization: I critically evaluated the necessity of each dependency and eliminated any unnecessary ones. This optimization process helped reduce code bloat, improve the app's performance, and minimize the maintenance
