The Kidiwatch app offers a range of features that allow you to stay in constant contact with your child. With calling and messaging functions, you can reach them whenever you want. The location feature lets you see where your child is at any time. The app is designed to work with Kidiwatch-brand smartwatches. Calls With the app, you can call your child at any time, and they can call you as well. Child’s Location Thanks to real-time tracking, you can see your child’s current location. Just tap the "Location" button in the app, and it will display on the map. Location History With the Kidiwatch app, you can easily check your child’s location history over the past day or week. Safety Zones You can set up safety zones (e.g., school, home). If your child leaves these areas, you’ll receive a notification in the app. SOS Button The Kidiwatch kids' smartwatch includes a safety feature—in emergencies, children can contact you by pressing a dedicated SOS button. If your child presses it, you’ll receive an instant alert on your phone. Messages This feature allows you to chat with your child whenever you want. From your phone, you can send both voice and text messages, while the child can only record voice messages from their watch. School Mode In the app, you can set specific hours during which the watch operates only in school mode. During this time, the child cannot use the watch, and the only active function is the SOS button. Contact List The app lets you create a secure contact list for your child, ensuring that no strangers can reach them. Games & Rewards The watch allows you to send rewards to your child. This creates a fun way to motivate them—for example, to clean their room. If your child collects 10 hearts on their watch, they might earn a reward, like a trip to the movies. The app has been specially designed to allow watch management directly from your phone. As a parent, you can decide how much freedom to give your child, which will likely depend on their age.
