Is there a MOVE indicator like on the other Garmin watches? Vibrates and says MOVE if you sit still for 1 hour?
no phone calls?
So do your kid necessarily need the messages or can you skip that?
I was going to get this I was just wondering if there is any more options to do on the watch ⌚️
This watch ABSOLUTELY SUCKS. The device simply doesn’t work as it should. You send messages to your child, and never know if he got them. He sends messages back to you – sometimes you get them, sometimes not – sometimes you get them TENS OF MINUTES AFTER THE MESSAGE WAS SENT!!!! You can send messages faster with Carrier Pigeon – probably with fewer dropped (unsent) messages!!! This is with the LTE service, in a major North American city. Terrible terrible terrible, spend a few extra $$$ and get a basic Apple Watch for the kiddo.
I’m a Garmin user and love Garmin. As a Bounce dad, both of my kids have the watch, I do not recommend this watch. The watch works fine at first but develops substantial connection issues. Having to do constant factory resets just doesn’t cut it. Garmin is buying back both units I bought. Lack of connectivity is a known issue with Garmin.

300€ in europe Garmin can keepit
Do you have this version vs the huawei kids ?
Can it be used to track my kids run?
5 minutes of something with zero information
We were planning on buying gizmo watches for our kids… but they are not water proof so we’ve been looking at this watch. My only hesitation with it is that it does not allow 2 way calling.

Turn off the dang background music horrible
*Also want to mention that there is a cost to have the LTE service (Texting), is ~$10 per month or $100 per year.
As a parent who bought, smart phones for my son and a flip phone, I’m done with the phone becoming a device to entertain, distract from life and school "especially". I think this option makes sense, however, they missed the mark for not packaging this for older children.
LTE on your kiddos body is not wise.
Do you have to connect it to your phone?
Is it possible to give and receive calls with the Garmin?
Worst watches, 2 days battery… Are you kidding?!?!????? Very big size, there can be 500mah battery, but
The sound is so loud in the background but good review
That music is horrible
