Pause is an application and product that syncs up with users' streaming services via Bluetooth or WiFi to educate parents and children on LGBTQ+ representation. Pause displays a series of related prompts and questions during the runtime of applicable TV shows and movies. Users can customize the frequency of questions and will have a refreshed set of question cards with each experience. Through Pause, we aim to create a space in which both parents and young children can feel free to spark conversations about the LGBTQ+ community in an open and safe environment.
