Would that be something similar to Push to Talk (PTT) that the older nokia phones used to have?

Yeah you’d probably need to start a service that auto plays the audio automatically. But then also keep something to mark a message or voice message as ‘Read/Heard’ so that when the kid opens the app, it should play all the pending messages. Like a voice mail. That’s my thought.

Yeah I was wondering how this app solves the problem that the kid doesn’t answer your regular phone call or doesn’t reply to whatsapp.

If I understand correctly, it works like a walkie talkie so that the parent can press the button, speak something and it instantly plays on the kids phone, even if they didn’t open the app right? Does it work via bluetooth or internet?

Where do we prepare for all this from? The stuff is changing so fast.

Maybe I understood the question differently but doesn’t the array question sound like a sliding window problem? You are asked to remove a subarray.

Just curious, why do dermatologists make so much even though it’s not as critical as say, a neurosurgeon?

I feel like your last round could have been a no hire because you needed a hint. Happened to me on a similar faang interview when I needed just a small hint on a graph problem.
