Mostly works.
I have to open and close the app twice to get it to load. I wish my children’s phone location would auto refresh when the app is opened. It works but could be better.
Horrible app
I regret buying a Gabb phone. I am not able to use the parental contacts control and now the app is not moving past a WiFi screen. I have already spent close to 3 hours with tech on the initial issue. After troubleshooting a myriad of things, they say I’m stuck in the middle of a software migration they are doing. I won’t recommend Gabb to anyone.

Gabb Tip Pop Up
Is there any way to get the Gabb Tip pop up to have an option to click out of it? Every time I open the app, the Tip pops up and then I can’t use the app.
Just ok, but not great
I love the idea of the Gabb watch, but it doesn’t work very well for the primary purposes that I have it. I wanted to be able to keep an eye on where my kids are in real time, and be able to contact them easily, but without constantly calling and harassing them. The first problem is that the location does not update well at all. I’ll get a notification saying my kid left a safe zone, but when I open it up, it shows his location 15 minutes ago. I push “refresh” and it doesn’t refresh. The other problem is that often, the texting doesn’t go through immediately. I’ll send my kid a text, then 2 hours later when he’s home sitting next to me we hear his watch ding, and it’s my text from two hrs earlier. The calls usually go through, and I can reach them that way, but it’s frustrating. The step tracker is not accurate at all. This is unimportant to us, but if that’s a feature you’re looking for, look elsewhere. My younger son is at 216,000 step this morning. It never resets and doesn’t actually keep track well anyway. I would recommend keeping an eye out for a deal on another option. The price might be ok, but it doesn’t work well enough to even be worth that.

Gabb Tip on screen
There is this ‘Gabb Tip’, referring to your child being connected to WiFi, that will pop up on the parent app and you cannot close it or see your child’s location. This has been going on for weeks. I have to uninstall the app for it to just work briefly and then pop up comes back on. I’ve called tech support and still not resolved. I can’t be the only person this is happening to.
