Free disaster prevention tool! “Evacuation Kit Mini” APP helps you prepare for disaster prevention in 3 steps, and you can also check shelters offline (iOS/Android)
In Taiwan, earthquakes are like daily background sounds, and they occur almost every month, making people panic. It is precisely because of this that more and more people are beginning to realize the importance of disaster preparedness. In particular, the composition of an “evacuation kit” is no longer the exclusive preserve of professional survivalists, but is a basic equipment that you and I should have. But seriously, just the thought of checking information, making lists, and purchasing supplies all at once, plus everyone’s needs are different, is a headache. If you are like me and often put aside your evacuation kit because you “don’t know where to start preparing”, then this free app “Evacuation Kit Mini” may be a great help on your road to disaster prevention.
This app not only provides a basic list, but also combines AI, offline maps and item expiration management. It is equivalent to an exclusive disaster prevention butler, allowing you to make the most critical preparations in the least time. Next, let’s take a look at how it can help you prepare in advance!
1. AI customized evacuation bag list: get as much equipment as you want according to your budget
One of the biggest features of “Escape Kit Mini” is that it does not give you a set of universal answers, but helps you create a tailor-made evacuation kit list based on your actual situation. After opening the app, you can directly set your own budget, from a minimum of 100 yuan to as high as 10,000 yuan. Then check whether there are special needs, such as female users, infant families, elder care or pet raising, etc. After these conditions are set, the App will use AI to help you generate a list of evacuation bags. Each item has a description of its purpose and an estimated price, which is very considerate.
For example, if you have cats and dogs, it will automatically add leashes, feed, small water bowls and other necessary items; for women, menstrual products, personal hygiene products, etc. will be added. These details make people feel that there is real research demand behind the app, rather than just applying a template.
These lists are not made up randomly, but are practical versions compiled by referring to the government’s recommendations and using AI models to analyze community discussions such as Dcard, PTT, and Threads. For people who know little about disaster prevention, such a list is like having a professional consultant by your side to guide you. You no longer have to worry about buying the wrong thing or missing out on important equipment. There is also a “Backpack Buying Guide” below to teach you how to choose a suitable evacuation backpack. For example, it is recommended to use a lightweight, waterproof, layered design backpack, etc., so that you are well prepared from the outside to the inside.
2. Item expiration reminder: Keep the evacuation bag always ready for war
Although some people have prepared evacuation bags long ago, the dry food and mineral water inside have expired a few years ago, which means they are still unprepared. Another practical function of the “Escape Bag Mini” is the “Item Expiration Reminder”. As long as you log in the name and expiration date of each item in the app, it will automatically pop up reminder notifications 7 days, 3 days and the same day before the item expires, allowing you to replace it in time.
What’s even better is that the App will arrange each item in a timeline based on its expiration date, so you can know which one is about to expire soon without having to dig through your backpack to find it. This function is especially suitable for things with shelf life such as cans, bottled water, and batteries. Even small items in life that you may have forgotten, such as contact lens solution, wet wipes, and mosquito repellent, can be managed together.
3. Taiwan’s evacuation map + navigation function: you can find evacuation locations even offline
If there is a major earthquake, in addition to preparing your backpack, it is equally important to know “where to evacuate.” One of the most amazing features of “Escape Package Mini” is that it has a built-in “offline version” of the shelter map, covering more than 70,000 pieces of information across Taiwan! You only need to download the offline map information once when you use it for the first time. After that, even if there is no Internet, you can open the map at any time to find the nearest evacuation location. This is particularly important in disaster situations where there may be no internet or power.
By clicking on the shelter mark on the map, you can also see detailed information, including name, address, capacity, etc., and you can connect to Apple Maps or Google Maps to start navigation with one click. And there is a layer function on the right side, you can freely switch the categories to be displayed: air raid shelters, first aid stations, hospitals, relief stations, civilian supplies distribution points, etc., they are all available! To put it simply, this map covers almost all the “resource locations” you may need in various disaster situations. It can be said to be a disaster version of a survival map.
Conclusion
Overall, “Evacuation Bag Mini” is a disaster prevention app that is truly designed from the user’s perspective. Its functions are practical, its interface is intuitive, and its operation is extremely simple. In particular, the two functions of AI checklist and expiration reminder have solved the pain point of “I don’t know how to start or when to update” when preparing the evacuation package. What’s more, itTotally free and no ads, which is really rare in today’s app world. The development team obviously sincerely hopes to promote disaster prevention awareness and allow more people to easily build basic resilience.
In this era of frequent natural disasters and unpredictable climate change, it is always better to “prepare early” than “wait to deal with it after it happens.” If you haven’t started preparing yet, start by downloading the “Escape Package Mini”! No need to spend money or worry, you can now give yourself and your family more protection.
