Offline Survival Manual

This is a Survival Manual which is fully working offline ( which is important to survive in a case of some extreme situation ) It contains info on how to make fire, build a shelter, find food, heal and other useful content in a case of emergency. But it does not have to be used in emergency situations only - it can be also useful for trips to the outdoors, hiking, camping, learning about nature and yourself truly. This is not only fun, but you can also train skills ( make fire, build shelter, .. ) you might need in a catastrophy. Some things work best with practice in a relaxed environment - then you also have time for some experiments. Refugees are also welcome to use this app to prepare and guide them for their dangerous journey. Although I hope we as humans come to sense and stop the wars so that people do not have to flee and be afraid. Background: In the midst of the current political situation ( A dangerous man as president of a big nuclear power nation ) I had to prepare for doomsday scenarios and was searching for a good Survival Guide that I can use offline. There where some but none of them where really good & fitting. Also there was none free software ( FOSS ) on FDroid. Hence I was writing this Software.
