The Best

The BEST decision ever!

Best Watch Ever!

This watch is so kid friendly and looks not kiddy at all. The app makes it very easy to manage. The peace of mind knowing you are always in touch with your kid is fantastic! I have 2 in middle school and they both have one!

Absolutely love it

Really love this device for my children so I can stay connected and check on them. The features were definitely created with parents in mine and safety.

Love the gizmo watch

I love being able to communicate with my 2 granddaughters

Good tool

I love that my children have a way to reach me when they need me and that it’s not just a tracking device. The GPS tracking falters quite a bit though… never quite has the correct address to where it’s located. My favorite feature besides the low price is that the watch can be set to answer on its own if not answered after 2 rings. My child likes that it’s a watch and easier to keep up with than a phone.

Reliability

This device is great but not very reliable for daily use.

Awesome way to communicate and locate your sweet munchkins

Grandchildren

Get to keep up with what’s going on in my grandchildren’s life

Good app

We love the app, our kids can call us, us them, family chat set up, we can find a watch when misplaced, etc. BUT, the sound (or notifications) mute automatically and we don’t know when one of our children have sent us a message. It’s the only reason I don’t give 5 stars. We are constantly having to “turn on sound”. and that switch is located in FAQs menu. It’s the oddest function for a device like this when you want to know when your child is sending a msg.

Gizmo review

Location sharing is key to having peace of mind .Very helpful to be able to keep in communication .

Grandson

I am glad to know he is being trusted and he calls us and knowing he safe

AWESOME APP

I love this Gizmo. My son has been using it for a few years now. All of the features advertised work well.

Thank you gizmo

Best app ever my kids can text their friend and most of all we know where they are at all times

Love it - some improvements though

I started my son with the T-Mobile kids Watch and when I switched over to Verizon he was already so used to it. App is super easy to use. I love the fact that I can see where he is and that he can communicate with me and close family. I mostly got it for him to communicate with his dad with out me being involved unless it’s necessary and let me tell you 10/10. I would love to know how I can get him to be able to text from gizmo to Apple with out the app. Only way is to set him up with a permi

Gizmo

I like it, but I do wish I could see how long my son was on a call. And I wish the location worked better like more real time I try to watch his location to know when his bus is here and it’s not working fast enough.

My brother & my sister hate this app

I love this app

This app is great but needs to work on the Apple Watch

This app is great but needs to work on the Apple Watch, I don’t always have my phone but I do my watch and can’t get or respond to my kids messages.

10/10

I have nothing negative to say about this app. The functions and accuracy it has to support my son’s Gizmo watch are exactly what I wanted and needed out of a smart watch made for a 7 year old. He loves wearing it because of the technology aspect, and can play a couple of different games while keeping himself on task to finish responsibilities and earn rewards at home. The GPS accuracy of the watch/app has really put my mind at ease when we go any place where there is a crowd of people, or trave

Great starter watch

It’s a great starter watch. Definitely not ready for my 10 year old to have a phone. The only thing is that the charger isn’t great, so it doesn’t charge correctly all the time.

Great starter watch

I got this for my kid to use in case of an emergency since they are too young for a phone. The location does lag from time to time but outside of that I have no complaints on the app. The app is easy to use and so is the watch.

Hope the message words bigger

Love the app so far! But can I adjust the fonts size in the message? Being a busy mom and getting old, it’s difficult to see the fonts in the message so small! Please help to give the older people a better experience to communicate with the kids (Grandma complains too!)!!!

Location

It works well but it will never update my sons location. It’s always showing him at home when he’s at school! Sometimes I have to shut the watch down and turn it back on for it to do right.

Great for my kindergartener

I love the Gizmo watch, it gives me piece of mind when my kiddo is too young for a phone. Although sometimes it alerts me that the watch has left a location when really it hasn’t.

App works well.

I like this app for our daughter’s watch. It works well. Feature request- please add AutoCorrect for the message feature.

Please add…

Can you add FaceTime on it and also I would like if you made more games on them there is only a hopping one!

The best watch

I love love love it. #thebestwatch

Good but could be better

It’s a good app but at times it really lags to reconnect/get updates from the hardware (might be the watch itself) so I can’t get accurate info. Also my son sometimes doesn’t hear/feel when I’m messaging him. Also could be a more effective monitoring tool for exercise if data was more granular.

Love it

Allows me to stay in touch and keep track of 3 grandkids

Good when it does work

Ok when it works. I had bought this so my 8 year old daughter could reach us in an event of emergency and for after school sports and for us to make sure she is where she needs to be after school. However often times location is off. We’ve been in a panic because we had received notification that my 8 yr old daughter has left her designated location. Meaning she wasn’t at her after school activity and instead showed she was somewhere across town. We were relieved when we called and she assured u

Grandma

Perfect for communicating with and tracking young people who are not old enough to have smart phones. Allows them to communicate with their primary adults and vice versa. Thanks Grandma (backup caregiver)

Good starter item

I bought this 2 years ago for my daughter to take to school. Overall its does great but there have been a few times it will ping completely different places. My 4star is because One time it said she was at someone’s house. When I called the school they confirmed she was there. That can freak a parent out and cause trouble!

Fantastic

Works great to keeping in touch with my nephew. Loves to send me message and call me :) It’s also fun for him which I appreciate.

Todo duration

Works well. I can not make a Todo without having to set a duration. Doesn’t make sense to have a time set for some todo tasks. I tried setting the time to 0:0 but it won’t let me

Great ish app

I love this app to communicate to my family but I hate the way the watch can only really be able to send voice messages and I have been getting logged out of my account when I’m trying to text. But other than n that I think it’s a great app!

Here’s the TRUTH

The watch itself is cool for the child. I like that you can control who’s allowed to contact them and vise versa as well as how much contact is allowed. Here’s the BIG issue I have, the location tracker isn’t accurate at all. At times it says my kid is a block or two away from her actual location which completely defeats the purpose if I actually needed to track her for any reason god forbid. Please update the tracking software, if that gets fixed I have no issue changing to a solid 5-star revie

Great ish app

I love this app to communicate to my family but sometimes it logs me out and it also never saves your password to your smart device so I find it troubling to have to keep remembering my password while getting logged out every so often.

Love it

I love this app for my son. The only thing that I don’t like it’s that it loads slow when you are trying to locate it. Other then that, it’s great.

Love this App & Watch, only 1 suggestion

I love this app and gizmo watch for my child. It is great for communication and knowing where he is. I only have one suggestion that it should also have a sleep tracker.

Amazing but laggy

My watch was activated but it never came on I don’t know what’s happening please help I don’t wanna lose 30$!!

Such a handy gizmo

My hubby and I love this device. Its a comfort to keep an eye on the kiddos while giving them a chance to do things by themselves. It has always worked when we call them. Both my kids wear one-I would've never felt comfortable letting them walk within five minutes of home otherwise. Great, reliable product !

Won’t sync to app

The watch is not syncing to the app. App says watch is off but watch is on. Please help!

Eh

My app keeps saying my kiddos in school mode and she is not. It is very frustrating.

Watch needs an optional Lock Screen

My kids’ watches will get bumped and they accidentally call people and don’t realize it’s happening. It’s happened multiple times during the school day. The watch needs a Lock Screen where they can type a password to access the features.

Eh needs help YOU CAN NOT CALL 911!!

Suddenly my watch went black while babysitting and it made the noise that it was charging but I had to figure out the app weirdly to get it to normal like a reset and it is laggy and better games these are boring and it definitely deletes my photos after a while and you can’t call 911 for an emergency you can only call one emergency contact you have 1
