Air Alert Radar for Android

Air Alert Radar, developed by zagreba.dev, is an Android safety app that tracks air raid threats across Ukraine and delivers region-specific warnings. It overlays real-time siren status and moving threat icons on an interactive map and sends push notifications for siren start and end. The app supports district-level filtering and keeps an alert history with durations and threat types, optimized for low-resource mobile use by residents and visitors in Ukraine.

Visual radar makes threat geometry immediately readable

The app's interactive map plots active alerts and shows estimated missile and drone trajectories, so users can judge direction and spread at a glance. Threat visualization uses approximate location markers and movement vectors, which clarifies where sirens apply across districts. The representation favors spatial understanding over raw text lists, helping people orient quickly when multiple alerts overlap or cross administrative boundaries.

Checking and following an area is a short mobile routine

Users pick districts to follow via regional filtering, receive instant push notifications for siren start and end, and tap alerts to open the map. The app records each event in an alert history with duration and threat type, enabling quick review of recent activity. Those steps let someone move from notification to situational view without navigating deep settings.

Built for Android with emphasis on low-resource operation

The tool runs on Android and is optimized for modern versions to maintain reliable push notifications. Its lightweight design targets fast loading and minimal resource consumption during emergencies, which reduces lag on constrained devices. Because it uses system notification services, background delivery still depends on device-specific behavior and Android power-management policies.

Precision and geographic scope constrain specific use cases

The map's positions and movement vectors are described as approximate, which limits usefulness for users who need exact, instrument-grade location data. Its dataset and alert coverage concentrate on Ukraine, so people outside the country will not find local alerts. Those limits position the app as a situational-awareness companion, not a substitute for formal telemetry or international monitoring feeds.

A mobile situational companion for Ukrainians, not a precision telemetry feed

The app suits mobile residents and visitors in Ukraine who must make fast sheltering decisions using quick, actionable awareness. It is less appropriate for professionals who require precise telemetry or for anyone needing coverage beyond Ukraine. Organizations that need cross-platform continuity and instrument-grade coordinates should evaluate services built around formal geolocation feeds and consult official civil-protection channels.
