Kytephone Officially Launches App To Turn Android Phones Into Kid-Safe Devices
Kytephone, the mobile app that transforms Android smartphones into kid-safe devices, is officially making its public debut today. The startup had previously been in beta, following its reveal at this spring's Y Combinator Demo Day, where founders RenatGataullin and Martin Drashkov first revealed their company's vision.The idea behind Kytephone is simple. It addresses parents' growing concerns over the access that these mobile computers (aka smartphones) offer children. Kids can surf the web, download apps, text and call anyone, snap photos and send them around to friends (or strangers) and more. But on the other hand, equipping kids with a phone is often seen as a must for reasons related to convenience and safety. That's where Kytephone comes in. By locking down the phone, the app allows parents to give kids a smartphone for all the good reasons, without the negative consequences.Original Link: http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/Techcrunch/~3/aa0_36ji6qA/
