More than 17 000 children took part in the Digital Scouts adventure this past weekend

So far Telenor Bulgaria has reached more than 40,000 teenagers

The autumn edition of Telenor Bulgaria's educational campaign "Digital Scouts: You know before you scroll" reached over 17,000 children who successfully passed all thirty questions in the two consecutive days of the last weekend of October, and proved that they know what are the dangers online and how to deal with them. They competed with each other in a race for knowledge and digital skills on topics such as online bullying, identity theft, phishing, malware, etc.

The Digital Scouts app, which is available completely for free in the two online shops App Store and Google Play, once again topped the charts, becoming the most downloaded app in the "Games" category of the App Store. The average answer time for a question was 6.6 seconds, and passing through all the questions took participants an average of 3 minutes and 18 seconds.

And because the app is educational, the questions were to be both challenging and fun for the participants. The easiest one for the users was related to Instagram - "What is forbidden on Instagram?". Thus everyone agreed that buying followers on the social network is frowned upon. The most difficult question was "Which behavior on the Internet does NOT pose any danger."

The fall edition of Digital Scouts did not leave the little scouts alone in their online adventures. The campaign was joined by popular influencers such as Andy Studio, Balan, Haha.bg and Isabel Ovcharova, who have been part of the campaign since its very beginning, as well as other popular influencers for whom online safety is an important topic. The gamer Konstantin Kanev, better known as nothxtv and Emil Conrad also took part in communicating the campaign to the youngsters.

For the three editions so far, the operator has managed to reach a total of over 40 000 children and teenagers to show them that they can have a fun and interactive way to gain sustainable knowledge that will be useful to them any time they are online.
