Reviews of Garmin Jr.™

  • Love!

    I recently got the Garmin Bounce watch in a lilac floral pattern, and I love it! I enjoy how it tracks my steps accurately, and its durability. With it being summer, going to camp, swimming, long road trips, etc., this is a must! The amount of things you can do on it is amazing. It tracks your sleep, which is helpful, so I can know that I need to try and get more sleep. My favorite option(s) on this are the games, my favorite being Math Flash, which I do every morning, trying to get as much done with my timer set for 5 minutes, and the active minutes. It gives me the goal to be active for at least an hour, and when being active for an hour, I’m rewarded with a move on the adventure, giving a question that has to do with the place you are in. I love how it makes my brain have to really think. I love puzzles and riddles, so that’s very fun. I thank you for reading this, and hope that you buy the Garmin Bounce or Vivofit Jr. :)
  • Makes parenting so much easier

    We use this app with their Garmin Bounce watches. It keeps track of where they are when they are riding their bikes around the neighborhood. The points we assign for chores equate to how much they earn in allowance, and they are able to mark off chores as they do them, wait for approval from us before the points are given and can see the points add up. We are able to text and voice message them on their watches, which has put off the requests for cell phones for now and has helped us get in touch with them in an emergency now that they are gaining some independence. This has changed our parenting game! I have recommended this to all our friends.
  • Great watch, frustrating app

    We love the watch! But I have a huge issue with the app. When a notification comes through, I just get a generic “Garmin Jr” notification, and when I open up the app there’s NOTHING to indicate what I’m being notified about! Did my kid send me a message? Did her location change? Did she check off some of her chores? Literally the only way to figure it out is to click on everything in the app until you find the new bit of info. There’s no little red number or flag to let you know what to look at, so you just to click around until you figure it out! It is u believably frustrating, especially for an app that we use primarily as a safety tool for our child! Please, please, PLEASE make it clear what the notifications are actually FOR. Aside from this very very big concern, I have no complaints. But this one is huge.
