Why an App?

Questions & Answers
why an app?
The amount of young people using the internet for more than three hours a day has more than doubled in just over a decade (quadrupled among 9-12 years old), and in just six years, the usage among the younger ones increased by 12 times. Depreciated by age groups and gender, the proportion of high consumers may be even bigger, eg 76% of 15-year-old girls use the mobile phone for more than 3 hours / day and 79% of 18-year-old boys use the internet for more than 3 hours / day.
With the smart phones and the breakthrough of the mobile Internet access, the terms and conditions have changed fundamentally. Today you do not have a phone in your pocket. Now you carry a computer, a tv, a radio, a game console and large parts of the world’s total music and most of the information ever produced.
It is precisely for this reason that our focus is on creating tools that can be used in the platform where children and young people spend the most time, and that accessibility and support for vulnerable people come closer to the victim.

hools and workplaces can work on their own and/or together with us.
