Bear Bell App "BearBell"
A bear bell app designed to keep bears away. Developed based on the developer's own experience as a hiker, with the goal of maintaining an appropriate distance between bears and humans. With background playback support, the sound continues even when your smartphone is in your pocket. Perfect for hiking, trekking, camping, and other outdoor activities.
App Features
This app features animations of the bell swinging left and right, creating a visually appealing, friendly design. With background playback support, the sound continues even when your phone is in your pocket or bag. A warning sound function is included for unexpected bear encounters.
While developed for hiking and outdoor use, it can also be used during commutes in areas with bear sightings, or during farm work. Please note that this app is only one supplementary safety measure. We strongly recommend combining it with other measures such as carrying bear spray.
