A mobile app that keeps children safe from kidnapping. Anti Child Abduction Mobile App uses data from motion sensors, GPS information, and previous location patterns collected from a child's phone. When the child's position differs from those patterns, the tool alerts parents their child may be in danger. (Inspired by a local event in the family's neighborhood.)
