About Lost Connection

**NOTE: YOU MUST HAVE A TEXTING PLAN FOR THIS APP TO WORK**

How it works
The user inputs the address of the place he/she would like to visit. (Example: 1401 N Shoreline Blvd Mountain View, CA 94043)

The Android app also generates the latitude and longitude of the user which doesn't require wifi. The app sends over the latitude and longitude and address of destination to the server.

The server, which runs on AWS, is a flask application that runs on python. It uses Bing API, Google Direction API, and Twilio API to help generate the information and direction that it will send to the server. The server also calculates the Vincenty distance between the two points.

The server sends a text through twilio to the user with: 1.Vincenty Distance 2.The Directions to their Destination - The directions have HTML tags on them. Due to the time constraint of the hackathon, we weren’t able to fix it. But it gives the directions, which was the main purpose of this hack. Anyways, they're mostly just bold tags.
