🔧 Fix this

Ideas a builder, maker or community group could start on:

  1. A real-time status dashboard within the app that provides specific outage details and estimated resolution times
  2. An automated 'emergency transfer' feature that allows users to initiate transfers via SMS or phone if the primary app interface is down
  3. A policy requiring financial apps to provide clear, actionable error codes rather than dismissive or generic messaging during service interruptions
