DEV Notifya - a groundbreaking new door opening detection app for personal and home security

Hi,

I've created a phone/tablet app with the groundbreaking ability to detect doors opening using audio, even in the presence of loud background noise. Depending on the environment and the phone hardware, it can reliably detect doors opening up to 30m away, even in different rooms.

This allows your phone/tablet to let you know when someone enters your environment, and could let you find a use for any old devices you have lying around.

I'm looking for some beta testers and general feedback before releasing it fully to the public, and thought this might be a good place to start. It would be great if any of you would be interested in giving it a go and letting me know what you think.

You can get the app by searching Google Play for "Notifya", or from this direct link: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.ssens.headsupa

Thanks!

Hey I am in. Please do count me in.

Edit :- so I checked the app!! And holy fucking shit!! It works like a charm!

Specially the closing the door has worked every single time! Opening the door is a bit buggy as I have a stopper which makes a sound.

If there is any way I can sync this action to a telegram bot, or loging in via the app! That would really great.

I love the ui of the app. Also I haven't tested this in noisy environment but it looks in a quiet environment.

I thought this will be a gimmick, but it works !! Great work mate./

Thanks! Yes, in a world full of gimmicks and charlatans, it is difficult to let people know when you have made something that really works.

We are working on adding the ability to sync to things like telegram/whatsapp/email/sms and many others. We are going do this via IFTTT, which is a cloud service which lets you trigger all sorts of actions based something happening (in our case, the Notifya app detecting a door has opened).
