App Description

I created an app (Canary) that lets anyone leave a statement about an auto accident they witnessed for the drivers involved to collect and use.

4 years ago I was the victim of a hit-and-run accident that totaled my car. About 2 years later, I witnessed a hit-and-run that likely totaled two cars. Nowadays, it gets at me when I hear about this happening to other people, especially when it’s a serious hit-and-run.

When I created this I was thinking about what I wished existed when I was the victim of a hit-and-run and when I witnessed one. I have a lot more in mind but this does the basics, and I want to build as I get feedback from users.

Here’s how it works:

Imagine you’re driving to a wedding out of town and you witness a car accident on the highway. It’s not serious but you know one driver is definitely at fault. However, if you stop you’re going to miss the wedding. What do you do? Some might call the local police and share what they saw but you’d have to find out what city the accident happened in and contact their police department. Some would keep driving hoping someone else noticed and stopped to help as a witness. Instead, I want drivers to tell Canary what they witnessed by doing the following:

Drop a note
1. Open the Canary app and tap “I saw an accident”
2. Tell Canary when it happened, where you were and what you saw from your point of view. If you have a photo or video like from a dashcam, you can attatch that to your note.
3. Canary then makes your note available for the drivers involved to use as a statement.

Now imagine you were the driver hit by someone and you’re the victim of the hit-and-run. I want you to use Canary to collect witness statements without having to interview people yourself. Here’s how you’d do this:

Create a nest
1. Open the Canary app and tap “Get help for my accident”
2. Tell Canary when, where and what happened in your accident as well as short message to witnesses. You can also attach a photo or video of the damage to your vehicle.
3. Choose how long you want your nest open to collect information.

I’d really appreciate some feedback on the app and some help spreading the word that this app is available in the App Store.

The app is available for free:

• App Store search “tell Canary” or https://apps.apple.com/us/app/canary-auto-accidents/id6499562309
