KiDSnav Reviews 

There are a lot of good design elements to these watches - it's solidly built, and has at lot of well-thought out options in terms of GPS tracking, being able to lock it down when the child is at school etc. I'm personally uncomfortable with the features which allow for photos or sound recordings to be taken remotely - I'm not convinced all parents can be trusted with such capabilities! - but I would assume most will just not bother with them thankfully. The drawback to the watch is just how poor the battery life is, for no obvious reason. Its a very chunky device so there is plenty of room in there, and it's limited in what it can do, compared to a typical smartwatch, yet it needs charging every night - and that's even with it set to turn off at night. Given that kids aren't the best at remembering to do things this seems like an obvious weakness. I'm really not sure why a device with such limited features can't run for a whole week on a single charge.

My daughter is craving a little more independence, but am reluctant to buy her a phone because of all the social media pressures it will place on her.
This watch is a little godsend. It allows her to play a little bit more freely with her friends whilst being contactable and also trackable! Love it!

Delivered quickly, easy set up and works well. Very happy with it!

Purchased 2 watches for my twin boys 9th birthday, they are fab, so accurate, can phone msg, track, exactly what we were looking for 10/10

Just what we needed for my daughter. I feel the GPS isn't always quick/accurate enough to update but all in all fab watch for the kids. Love that I have a way of contacting them, have just bought a second watch to give to my other daughter.

Watch works well, just what I was looking for, easy to use for a child with no distracting games, map seems accurate and easy to set up!

We love the kidsnav! It is great to give my son that first bit of independence but I can still keep in contact with him & see where he is. We also like that do not disturb mode during school hours.
A fantastic little gadget!

This watch has made our life so much less stressful, and giving our 7 year old a new sense of responsibility and independence.

He’s able to go out and play without us worrying as you can set safe zones like the park that you get notified when he leaves. You can also call them to check if you ever get worried.

Great addition and we are planning on getting another for our youngest.

Kidsnav has been brilliant. It has given our child peace of mind when away from us but also peace of mind for us too. It has allowed independence but enabled us security. So far can't fault it. The app has been great for monitoring and showing where they are. Whe my youngest is ready I will get her one

Excellent watch which has given our child greater freedom, whilst we retain some peace of mind to allow us to keep in contact and check location as needed.

This little gadget is small and packs quite a lot of features but most importantly it allows me to see where my 8 year old is and lets him get in touch in emergencies. Its the perfect balance for a few years before getting a phone for him.
Pros
-Tracking
-Phone
-Messaging
-Camera
-Fun

Cons
-bulky for small wrists
-battery drains quick but it is a phone essentially

Overall, its proven useful on occasions where my sons went 'lost' or needed to get in touch for a pickup.

My daughter loves her watch and it’s great being able to call her. She’s too young for a phone and I want to put that off for as long as possible so this is a great alternative for keeping in touch.

Only negative is that the location isn’t that accurate.

We love this watch, gives us peace of mind when our child is out playing. The features of the watch are excellent, my son enjoys wearing it and it’s great that we can contact each other and he doesn’t need to carry around a phone.

My son used been using this watch for a year now. It alerts me via text when battery is at 20 percent so I never need to worry about him not v thinking to charge it. As another review says the texting buttons are small but he can read text from me give and reply with emoji or voice note if not wanting to call. We use the school mode to make sure he isn't tempted to distract himself. I like having a way to contact him on walk to and from school boy didn't want him having a phone and likely losing it.

Perfect watch to give me peace of mind while my daughter is out playing and easy to contact her without her having a phone. Good battery life, would recommend.

Amazing simple watch.All the essencial functionality on board including gps. My dougther use it fro 1 year now

The watch has so far been really good, it gives my girl some freedom to go out without me and gives me peace of mind that I can see where she is or contact her and she can also contact me! She loves the "bump watch" feature with her friends too, great way for them to keep in touch when too young for a phone

Really excellent customer serve ice and the products are great - easy to use and my son loves his new found freedom now I can let him wander a bit, without having to fork out for a new iPhone and all the social media worry that comes with it

Excellent watch which does exactly what we need but doesn't give complete freedom.

We got our son this watch in January 2023 amd it is still going strong.

Let's us know where our 8 year old is as well as being able to call him. He can call out to up to 10 registered numbers but can't text.

Scheduling feature is handy if ever need to wear to school.

I'm not sold on the 1p contract. Although it is cheaper than most I have to top up even though we have never and probably will never use the previous balance.

Sometimes the GPS is a little off which has caused a few issues but only on the odd occasion.

Overall great watch, sturdy and gives peace of mind when needed. Great that you can change the strap also for when they want a bit of change, feels like a new watch

This watch has been a great asset to us to enable to keep track of our daughter as she plays outside the house, it's a great middle ground when they are too young for a phone. Tracker is pretty good not perfect. I would recommend.
