Two entrepreneurial parents have come up with a quirky way of using education as a precursor for their children using social media on their phones.
Issac and Ann Elnekave have launched 1Question, an app that can be linked between parents and their child s phones as a sort of childlock that can be opened by answering educational questions.
The Elnekaves came up with the idea during lockdown living with their three daughters, aged 13, 14 and 24 - who Issac described as being on different planets glued to their phones.
Upon installing the app on his daughter s phone Issac told Daily Mail Australia he was met with a simple reply from his youngest, Alyssa.

Premium Content Like all great ideas, it is obvious now that someone has thought of it - force kids to do maths and English problems in order to unlock the apps on their phones. Sydney entrepreneurs Issac and Ann Elnekave have turned the idea into an app called 1Question and trialled it on their 13-year-old daughter Alyssa. At first I wasn t sure about it, Alyssa said. I didn t want my friends to blame me if their parents made them get it. But, once I started using it I realised it doesn t take that long to answer a question and it s actually pretty cool.
