To help the many families and friends who have been separated in the Uttarakhand floods, Google has launched its 'Person Finder' App - under the name 2013 Uttarakhand Floods.
It has already helped locate over 150 people.
The App helps offer information on those missing - whether you have information to share on those missing, or you're looking for someone, you can log on to that page and post.
This is an App that was used in the recent Boston Marathon Bombing. It was initially created in in 2010 in response to the earthquake in Haiti.
