Kyte is an easy parental control application that can be downloaded to any Android phone, activated, and then given to a child. This app allows the child to make pre-approved phone calls and play only authorized games. The child will be unable to leave the app to access the rest of the Android phone’s features. Parents have full control over the applications from the browser and can also track the phone’s GPS online. It has other features that enable parents to turn off SMS and Facebook during school hours, ban apps and games during school and bed time hours, monitor internet usage, prevent the usage of third party browsers, set time limits on games, check call history, track location in real-time, receive email reports about what their child has been doing, and full remote control from their phone, tablet or PC.

TenthBit Inc. was founded in 2012, in sunny California. The founders, having been disconnected from their significant others while being a part of the YC program, found that they were repurposing many other services to talk to their partners. After many frustrating skype calls, and international text messages, they decided to build Couple. The app now has over two million downloads on iOS and Android and has helped couples send over a billion messages to each other.
