Bear Repellent Bell App "BearBell" A "bear bell" app designed to keep bears away. Developed based on the developer's own experience as a hiker, this app continues to evolve with the goal of maintaining an appropriate distance between bears and humans. Background playback is supported, so the sound keeps playing even when your smartphone is in your pocket. Please use it as a companion for outdoor activities such as mountain climbing, hiking, and camping. App Features This app features a visually fun and friendly design, including an animation of the bell swaying from side to side. Thanks to background playback support, you can continuously play the bear-repelling sound even while your smartphone is in your pocket or bag. In case you encounter a bear, the app is also equipped with a warning sound feature. In addition to the bear bell sound, the app includes a voice announcement feature. Every 10 bell plays, it reads out messages such as "I'm ringing a bear bell as a bear safety measure." You can choose between male and female voices, and the message content is fully customizable. Furthermore, the app includes a custom bell sound feature, allowing you to ring the bear bell with your favorite sound—record your own audio with the microphone or import audio files you already have. The map display feature (BearBellMap) lets you check bear sightings and bear bell usage records on a map, and also includes a function for posting sighting reports. Combined with the location tracking feature and bear appearance alert feature, it supports safer outdoor activities. While the app is developed primarily for mountain climbing and outdoor use, it can also be used in various other situations, such as commuting to work or school in areas where bear appearances are a concern, or while doing farm work. Please note that this app is only one of several supplementary safety measures. We strongly recommend combining it with multiple safety measures, such as carrying bear spray.
