Very good
I like it. It is good.
Software is poor
The app asks me to review it every single time I log on. So I’m now giving it one star….
It’s just ok
The battery doesn’t last long enough, the watch worn during school can overheat and cause a mark on my daughters hand. This is therefore unacceptable. Frequently location is incorrect, which is concerning. Delete messages remain on the watch which confusing. Daughter cannot message back freely which doesn’t make sense. Overall ok but too many issues need addressing.

Still pretty terrible
Some suggested improvements seem to have been made, but there are still lots of issues similar to what others have posted, such as out-of-date locations. Sometimes I will receive a notification that a watch has moved out of a safety zone, but when I go to the map, it shows the watch in the original location. It can take quite a few refreshes or several minutes before the location catches up.
Also, the app badge icon (red bubble) does not clear after reviewing messages and notifications. This obviously complicates knowing whether or not there are new messages or notifications.
Note: one issue we had was when Wi-Fi is on, it really messes up watch location tracking and texting. Owners might want to ensure that watch Wi-Fi is not set to on.
*Suggested improvement: add a new user type for caregivers, such as aunts and uncles, grandparents, nannies, who can see the location, but do not have full access to make changes to watch Settings.
*Another suggested improvement: allow different alert sounds for messages versus notifications, and let these be different than the phone’s built-in system notification sound. The same alert sound for everything makes it difficult to know when I need to pay attention to the app/watch and in the end, the watch wearers, who are the point of even having this watch and app.
