SmokeSnitch: Resident Compliance Reporter

SmokeSnitch is a mobile app for tenants in smoke-free communities to easily report smoking violations without confrontation. Simply open the app when you smell smoke, tap a button to record the time and location (with optional audio note), and the evidence is automatically logged and timestamped for management. No need for photos or harassment. Management gets a dashboard with violation reports sorted by unit, building, and frequency, enabling swift enforcement and legal documentation.
