Lots of bugs and features don’t work. Nice idea though.

@oleg_avrah It doesn't list any offenders in the area I created (even though I have verified that there are w/ official online sources)

@oleg_avrah When you create an area and then go to "See Area On Map", it will often take me to some area in NY. (Area was setup in Texas).

Useful app, especially in countries where you can't buy a good gun.

Hello, Product Hunters and everyone who cares about safety! Today, I’d like to present you the recently released Guardyman app. Basically, I aimed to design an application that would provide stats on crimes and sex offenders in the selected location and help people avoid dangerous areas. I think this app will serve a good purpose to everyone who cares about their security. So, Guardyman makes data analysis on committed crimes and shows stats broken down by categories. Plus, there is a sex offenders list with addresses, heat map with detected crimes, and other features that estimate the danger level in your area. Now, what’s good about Guardyman is that you don’t have to monitor statistics around the clock. I didn’t want people to feel paranoid in no way. Instead, I’ve added this super comprehensive option where you enter a location and the destination point, and the map displays your route with the whole picture of local sex offenders and crimes. Based on that, you can change your direction and find safer ways to get to the intended place. As been said, the app gives updates on the crime situation and sex offenders in your neighborhood. It intends to keep you away from danger. What do you think about it? Please share feedback and drop me a line on @platonenkonik. Feel free to ask questions! Stay safe and guard your life!

Hey guys, how do you collect all that information and how often do you update it?
Ruslan
I have an awesome idea! You can sell 10-20-100 visits to gym Ps. You can even sell a gun as an add-on to your app

@ruslannaz or if you’re a lonely person - this could be a dating service with the 100% success rate. Joke. Really good idea for those who travel to dangerous cities.

Extremely useful for women (no sexism) and travelers
Eugene Lata
Wow. Looks like a very useful tool. Do you update information only for US? Any chance we will see statistics for European countries in the future?
Roman Pramberger
@eugenelata @oleg_avrah They dont. Most western countries dont do public shaming these days and/or value privacy, even of accused criminals.
Alex Clever
Hay, for my country it would pretty useful! Does it contain dangerous zones in Ukraine?
Nik

Hrant Arzumanyan
I am not sure I got it right. You get the information about criminals from the government?
