    I have 4 kids and all of them have watches, instead of phones. Great product, lots of features!

    Work as described! Perfect for a seven-year-old. Could be a little better on connectivity but good overall.

    The watch gives me a sense of trust, knowing where my child is at. The text service is just enough for our needs. Sometimes it lags though. (20-30min).
  • Easy to use, meets our needs

    I feel more comfortable letting my son ride his bike to school with this on. We can track when he gets to certain milestones on the way so we know exactly where he is.

    It helps him maintain access to his fitness and we are also able to us the location and messages. The chores list has also made home more independent and really helps him work on his executive functioning skills

    I use this app and the rewards as a behavior system for my kid and it works great. He is reminded by his watch to brush his teeth and pack his lunch for school. He does these things now much easier because he earns rewards we set up together in the app.
