E-VAC

Plan evacuation routes before disaster strikes. Get real-time NWS weather alerts, mark yourself safe, and share your location with trusted contacts in one tap.

E-VAC is your personal emergency response and evacuation planning assistant. Built for individuals and families who want to be ready before a hurricane, wildfire, flood, earthquake, tornado, or severe storm and not scrambling when minutes matter!

PLAN ROUTES BEFORE YOU NEED THEM Generate up to three evacuation routes tailored to the emergency type and how far you need to go — across town, across the state, or across the country. Routes prioritize safety over raw speed and steer clear of known disaster zones. Tap any route for turn-by-turn navigation in Apple Maps.

REAL-TIME WEATHER & ALERTS Stay ahead of severe weather with current conditions, a 7-day forecast, and a built-in hurricane tracker. National Weather Service alerts surface automatically based on your location, so you know when a watch becomes a warning.

MARK YOURSELF SAFE After a disaster, one tap shares your status and current location with your emergency contacts via native iOS Messages — no third-party servers, no extra apps for them to install.

LIVE ACTIVITY NAVIGATION Once you're moving, an iOS Live Activity keeps your evacuation route, ETA, and current step on your Lock Screen and Dynamic Island so you can focus on driving.

NEARBY SAFETY SERVICES See shelters, hospitals, and emergency services on the map around you, with type-aware filtering for the disaster you're facing.

PRIVACY-FIRST E-VAC only uses your location to power evacuation features — no behavior tracking, no advertising IDs, no selling data. Contacts you add live in your account; messages you send go through your phone.

WORKS WHEN YOU NEED IT Designed to function under pressure: offline-resilient route caching, large tap targets, dark mode by default, and a one-handed layout optimized for stress.

WHO IT'S FOR

• Coastal residents preparing for hurricane season
• Wildfire-zone households building a go-plan
• Anyone in tornado, flood, or earthquake regions who'd rather have a plan than improvise
• Families coordinating across multiple locations

E-VAC is not a substitute for official emergency services. Always follow guidance from local authorities and call 911 in life-threatening situations.
