## What is Swear Detector?

The reality is that virtually everybody swears.  Bad language is everywhere and we can't get rid of it anytime soon.  However, we can take something as negative as swearing and turn it into something positive.  Swear detector is able to detect when a bad word is spoken.  When a bad word is spoken, an alarm will continue to sound until money is added to the swear jar.  The alarm is frankly annoying and serves as a deterrent to stop the swearing.  That's the bad part.  The good part is that we encourage you to donate the money accumulate in the swear jar towards fighting a good cause:

Craniosynostosis is a condition in which the sutures in a Childs skull fuse prematurely.  The condition occurs typically within the first year of a Childs age.  If untreated, the fusing of the sutures will cause a buildup in pressure towards the Childs brain grown.  Thus affecting cognitive development leading to further complications in the Childs development. 

Thank you for your time and consideration!

### 1/5 — Not convenient

*2023-05-18*

The application has to be armed in order for it to work. Once it’s armed you cannot access any audio functions of your phone without shutting off the application. Not very convenient, if I could remember to turn the app on I could remember not to swear…
