About this app

Be ready for whatever happens. Prep App helps your household prepare for power cuts, storms, floods, water outages, unrest or something bigger – and it keeps working when the phone signal, internet and power don't.

Tell it where you live, who you're preparing for and how long you want to cope on your own – three days, two weeks, six months or a year. Every target in the app is worked out for your household.

🎒 RECOMMENDED KIT
Around 75 essentials across water, food, cooking, lighting and power, first aid, hygiene, warmth, tools, documents, pets and babies. Each one explains why it matters and shows exactly how much you need – for example "Need 179 L of water" for a family of four for two weeks. Tick it off and it's added to your inventory.

📦 INVENTORY
Track what you've stored and where: 10 tins of food in the kitchen cupboard, 10 kg of rice in the garage, 1 litre of honey under the stairs. Add expiry dates, group by category or location, and see what's still below target.

📊 DAYS OF FOOD & WATER
See at a glance how many days your food and water would last your household, how ready your kit is, and what's about to expire.

🥫 SAFE FOODS TO STORE
What keeps, how to store it, how long it lasts and what to do once it's opened – plus the warning signs that food has gone bad.

🗓️ MAINTENANCE CHECKS
Weekly, monthly, quarterly, six-monthly and yearly checks – test alarms, top up power banks, rotate water – with reminders of what's due and seasonal tips for your country.

🩹 FIRST AID
Clear, step-by-step guides for when help is delayed: wounds and preventing infection, severe bleeding, burns, CPR, choking, hypothermia, heatstroke, dehydration and homemade rehydration solution, sepsis signs and more.

💧 WATER PURIFICATION
Boiling, tablets, household bleach doses, filters, solar disinfection, distillation, rainwater, and finding hidden water in your home.

🔥 FIRE MAKING
Safety first, then lighters, ferro rods, tinder, fire lays, flint and steel, battery and steel wool, and how to put it out properly.

⚡ ENERGY
Power banks, solar panels, power stations, batteries, generators and staying warm without power – with a calculator for how long your power banks will keep your phones going.

📻 COMMUNICATION
Emergency and helpline numbers for your country (tap to call), how emergency alerts work, which radio stations to tune to, two-way radio and emergency frequencies, distress signals, and a full-screen SOS signal light.

📇 EMERGENCY CONTACTS
Store the numbers that matter and your household plan: meeting points, an out-of-area contact, evacuation routes and medical notes.

🧭 COMPASS & GPS
A built-in compass and an offline world map showing where you are. Save waypoints like home or your meeting point and follow the arrow back – no mobile signal needed.

🌍 MADE FOR YOUR COUNTRY
Tailored for the UK, Ireland, the United States, Canada, Australia, New Zealand and South Africa, with an international option. Numbers, official advice, water amounts, units, radio frequencies and even wording (torch or flashlight, tins or cans) change to suit.

🔒 PRIVATE AND OFFLINE
No account, no ads, no tracking. Everything is stored only on your device and the app doesn't need internet access. Back up your data whenever you like.

Prep App gives general information from official public sources. It isn't a substitute for first-aid training or advice from the emergency services – in an emergency, always call your local emergency number.
