My kid loves this app she can text and call and FaceTime her friends we will continue loving this app
My Senior uses The Gizmo!
My mother, age 95 now, has been using the Gizmo Gadget for years!! If she falls, she can call me! It’s not so complicated as an Apple Watch and it’s affordable! It has just enough contacts for her to stay connected. It makes us both feel very secure!!!
How un usable this app is
I found gizmo very difficult to log into from the very beginning I had it for about 2 months and then once I did t use the app for 2 days and then it logged me out and when I tried to log back in it said not able to log you in at this time and it continued to say that and to this day 7 months ago I was not able to log in Becuse it said it had the same problem it wouldn’t let me make a new account Becuse I had to log back in to delete the old account so I am stuck with the app permanently I can’t even delete the app on my phone. I have to delete the account to delete the app on my phone, once again, I cannot sign in because it keeps saying error. We cannot log you in at this time.

Why’d you move😞
I get to keep in contact with my daughter, the kids Dad and 2 grandchildren, ❤️❤️❤️❤️😊
Amazing for my family
I can chat with my Second Cousins now without going far away just to hang out with them since they don’t have phones for some reason they have Gizmo Watches.
Good, but poor volume and glitches
Gizmo is nice, but the volume on it is poor. It’s difficult for my child to hear me, especially when she is in a small group of friends.
The real time messages glitch. Other than that, we have enjoyed it for years.

5 stars
This app is a great app to message with little ones with the app and the watch without having to get them a phone!
My grandbaby is having such a fun time with her new watch
Oh my goodness my grandma Ref text me all the time her other grandma her pants. It’s so good. You guys are getting five stars.
Grandma’s window
Living so far from my granddaughter, nice to have a safe secure connection!
Good product.
Great option for younger kids!!!
Verizon stopped this from working with the Gizmo app
Not great
Watch
This is great for young kids don’t ever change!!
great app but can’t log in
it won’t let me log in saying that it can’t register me at the moment… it’s been saying that for the past 3 hours. i will say that i have used the app before and it is extremely helpful and the gizmo app and watch are great for preteens and older kids. would recommend, i just don’t know why i can’t log in at all

Not what we thought
We knew the watch could only communicate with approved numbers but didn’t realize that was only for calls. Texting requires using the gizmo app and can only be used for numbers that have been assigned to guardians. We want to be able to text normally without needing to have the app open and we want our child to be able to message with people on their approved list. Getting replacement chargers is also really difficult. Additionally dealing with Verizon is always a nightmare. If we had this to do over, we’d choose a different device.

New app is horrible
Bring back the gizmo app. My watch is stuck in school mode and it won’t let me back in this app to turn school mode off. Very irritating and frustrating. Why change what was working great.
New to this
So far so good my son and I both love we get to communicate when not together I recommend
Transfer to VF
The GizmoHub is a great app. However, Verizon recently made the decision to force their customers to use a new app and this includes the Gizmo watches. Customers will need to download this new app to replace the GizmoHub. We downloaded the Verizon Family app which has now bricked our Gizmo Watch, it is locked in school mode and Verizon cannot figure out how to get it out of school mode. Their solution was to factory reset the watch and reconnect it to the GizmoHub, that I have explained a million times to them no longer will work. Every time I hit the GizmoHub app, there is just a picture and a message that we have to use the VF app from now on. So if I factory reset the watch….i cannot reconnect it to the GizmoHub because it does not exist. Verizon has made a mistake and not doing anything to try to make it right.
Yes. School mode is turned off. The VF app is registering it as on though. Yes. I have restarted and turned off phone and watches. Yes. I have uninstalled and reinstalled both apps numerous times.
Not sure what else to do at this point. Not sure Verizon cares.

Great App, Flaws on Apple’s End and Watch doesn’t last too long
My brother & sister have gizmo watches, and I had one as well when I was younger. The watches themselves are nice, and I love being able to text them from my phone as well as track them. Location is a little slow, but still accurate. However, as I am an older sibling I have had issues with access. These seem to be more on Apple’s end though. Restrictions have to be turned off for me to access the app, which is annoying. Additionally, the watches themselves only last about 2 years. Overall, great product and is amazing for kids who shouldn’t have phones yet, however older siblings with iPhones need restrictions turned off & the watches don’t last too too long.
Edit: If app age rating restrictions are below 18+, the parents need to approve a request from the child. I have no idea why it is rated 18+, it shouldn’t be, but it is.

So slow
Everything is so slow with this app. It takes forever to load and to locate my child. Is it just my device or the app?
Buns
Can’t get it to work
