    The problem is that my child’s watch is a couple years old now and I am trying to connect it to the watch. We had it set up on our phone but now that she’s older she wants it too. The steps, activity, and sleep are not connecting are not connecting on the phone from the watch. Overall I love the watch fun app for kids to learn their activity! Please help!
  • Love this app!

    I’ve had issues on in off but majority of the time I am able to connect with my kids. I have peace knowing they don’t have access to so many other things that come with other smart watches.
  • One of the best things I’ve ever done

    I bought this for my grandson for safety reasons and it also gives him the ability to communicate. We love it. Garmin does it again!

    As a parent who's been using the Garmin Jr. app with my child's Garmin Bounce smartwatch for over a year now, I can confidently say it's been an absolute game-changer! Setting up kid profiles was a breeze, and the continued ease of managing them is fantastic. What I love most is how seamlessly the app integrates with the Bounce. My child adores the fun watch faces and the feeling of accomplishment when they complete their assigned chores and activity goals. The reward system we've set up through the app is a huge motivator, and it's wonderful to see them taking responsibility and staying active. The activity tracking is accurate and provides great insights into my child's daily movement. It's reassuring to know they're getting enough exercise, and the app makes it easy to monitor their progress over time. The safety features, like the ability to see their location (when enabled) and communicate with them, offer invaluable peace of mind. Even after a year of consistent use, the app remains intuitive and reliable. We've experienced no significant issues, and the occasional updates have only added helpful features and improvements. The Garmin Jr. app truly enhances the experience of owning a Garmin Bounce, transforming it from just a smartwatch into a valuable tool for encouraging responsibility, activity, and connection. Highly recommend it to any parent looking for a positive and engaging way to manage their child's smartwatch!
