### 5/5 — I love it

*2026-02-25, version 3.4*

It’s great, I have one right now it’s really great the only bad thing is that sometimes when my mom sends me a text I don’t get her text and when she tracks me it’s wrong

### 1/5 — No

*2026-02-07, version 3.4*

Is basically a cheap wrap around for the parent portal website and no matter what you do (YES, WE HAVE MADE AN EMAIL) the website constantly tells you “email not found”. App, website and watch are therefore unusable

### 1/5 — The worst

*2026-01-23, version 3.4*

This watch is a piece of junk . My son can call and text but isn’t able to receive calls or texts . I can only track him . We will be buying him an apple watch it’s cheaper through our phone services . Don’t waste your time or money on this watch or service .

### 1/5 — Horrible service and company

*2026-01-18, version 3.4*

We had for two weeks before requesting a return on everything. The calls didn’t go through most of the time and would say, the call could not be completed and to try again later. The tracking was always off if it loaded at all. The battery died within a few hours without doing anything on the watch, including calls, texts, games. The company has been a nightmare to work with for a refund and charges return fees if approved. Wish we picked a different watch like Bark.

### 3/5 — mad

*2026-01-08, version 3.4*

because every single time we try doing it it keeps on doing something wrong

### 4/5 — Ok

*2025-12-26, version 3.4*

So the app is fine. But the activation of the watch took several hours to complete and they don’t notify you when or if it has happened so it leaves you guessing as you try to figure out why the watch isn’t working. Also I wasn’t getting the 2FA emails for several hours either so I couldn’t login to figure out what was going on.

### 4/5 — Basic kids phone watch

*2025-12-23*

To sum up, we are glad as this option as a first “phone” watch for our teen since we are prefer not to give a screen or personal device until older. It does the job, we can get a hold of each other. Sometimes the location of slightly off, which has definitely freaks me out, saying she is a little further away 🤯😱.
Also, definitely a few steps to do everything for safety reasons. A few extra features would be nice like the tiny text letters. But overall it’s worth the price and does the job.

### 1/5 — Needs Work!

*2025-12-23, version 3.4*

I was invited to become one of my grandson’s guardians.  It only offered parent sign up and would have made me the primary contact.  Also would not recognize my password despite having the correct number of letters and numbers in the password.

### 5/5 — Great first watch

*2025-12-22, version 3.4*

We have had this for about a month and no problems have come up. It works well, and was very intuitive for my child. It does exactly what is says
As far as blocking numbers and has been completely reliable with GPS, texting and calling. I do recommend.

### 2/5 — Poor battery life, can’t hear calls

*2025-12-22, version 3.4*

Considering it only lasts a day, even when it’s not constantly updating is infuriating. So if my kid gets lost, I better find him fast because this watch will die in less than 24 hours at a full charge. I can barely hear calls, thank goodness for texting otherwise it’d be useless. The location is not very accurate either. It often puts him at a completely different house than where he’s at. We are currently at home and his watch says he is 3 full houses down, sometimes it’s an entire block off. Doesn’t give me a great deal of confidence. I tell other moms to pick a different brand.
