Social media is a vast platform connecting various people across the world but scarcely gives time for us to connect with our neighbors. Due to this pandemic, the government imposed lockdowns in multiple places across the country. People were unable to move out of their homes, and many faced a lot of difficulties. At that time, community apps helped people in the neighborhood to keep in touch and share about any emergencies, events, offers, etc.

In addition to serving as a neighborhood social network app, it served as a safety alert tool for coastal areas when a hurricane hit Texas.
