Dad Designs App That Freezes Phone If Kids Don’t Call Back
How many times have you been furious at your kids when they absolutely won't call you back? At my house, that's a lot. But Nick Herbert decided to do something about it. He designed an app that will shut down your kid's phone if they don't call their parents back. Hooray for you, Mr. Herbert!
The name of the app is ReplyASAP, and in order to unfreeze their phone, kids have to, you guessed it, return that phone call to Mom or Dad. Since 2017, about 75,000 users have downloaded the app, and for now, it seems only to work on Android phones. Would you use this?
