# What We're Building: ONLIFE

## Emergency Communication for Everyone

ONLIFE is a smartphone-based mesh network that enables communication during emergencies when traditional networks fail.

## Version 0 Features

- **Android app** that uses Bluetooth and WiFi Direct
- **Store-and-forward messaging** - messages hop between phones
- **No internet required** - works completely offline
- **Battery efficient** - less than 3% drain per hour

## Why This Matters

When disasters strike - earthquakes, floods, or network outages - people need to:
- Find family members
- Coordinate help
- Share critical information

ONLIFE ensures communication remains possible when it matters most.
