Indian Public Toilets
In India, public toilets exist — but nobody knows where they are, whether they’re open, or if they’re clean 🚽 Imagine a mobile app that: 🔹 Shows the nearest toilets 🔹 Displays real-time cleanliness ratings 🔹 Allows users to report hygiene issues 🔹 Supports city govts & malls to maintain facilities 🔹 Enables subscription-based upkeep & sponsorship This isn’t fantasy — this is a buildable product with real impact for urban cities, tourists, women & elderly. And yes — such apps are commercial
