Child Tracking Device Amazon
Designed for kids aged 3 - 11, it has 2-way calling and messaging so kids can keep in contact with up to 10 contacts approved by the parents. Naturally, there's location tracking and GPS boundaries that parents can set up. You're also getting a 1.3-inch 240 x 240 AMOLED display with 4 - 7 days of battery life.
AngelSense has also added some new features just this year. 2-Way Voice allows users to instantly call and speak to your child if you need to, an ETA feature lets you know when your kid is on the way home and the new Timeline Map promises better visibility of your child's routes.
Some models also offer geo-fencing, an electronic barrier drawn on a digital map which, when breached, immediately alerts the parent or guardian. There are also devices that include cellular connectivity, so kids can make an SOS call to a designated number from their smartwatch. And below, we've rounded up the best kid trackers you can buy right now.
Child Device Monitoring App
The Buddy Tag uses Bluetooth instead of GPS, making it one of the more affordable options on this list. While you can use it in as a normal kid tracker, it's also touted as a device that helps prevent drowning. There's a panic alarm for the child to contact parents if they're in a threatening situation, along with a personal ID to help reunite a lost child with the parents.
Omate has teamed up with Japanese toymaker Diablock and Tata Communications on a wearable that turns the kids tracker itself into a plaything. They use nanoblock straps that lets your child design the strap how they see fit with don't-call-them-Lego blocks.
As so many children under the age of four don't know their address or telephone number, a dirt cheap system like this could help save the day. A variety of other designs, including a pet version, are also available.
HereO also allows you to set a geo-fenced safe zone so that when your child crosses the boundary, an alert is sent to your device. There's also a monthly subscription of around $5. Heads up, the HereO is currently unavailable on Amazon.
Child Text Monitoring Iphone
It also comes with one month of free tracking. Tracking can be performed using a live map, a compass with distance countdown or, get this, augmented reality. Yup, just hold your smartphone up (iOS or Android) and, assuming you're pointing the phone's camera in the right direction, a little icon pops up on the screen showing you the child's whereabouts.
The Weenect Kids tracker also comes with an SOS button and, for older kids, a 'zone entry/exit' function that alerts the parent when he or she has returned home. This primarily one for the European crowd, though it also works in the likes of Korea, Madagascar, Australia, Ghana, India and Malaysia, too.
Child Monitoring Software
Amber Alert's pocket-sized GPS unit measures just 7cm and its rechargeable lithium battery runs for up to 40 hours on a single charge. Slip it into your child's pocket and you'll be able to check up on his/her location using either a browser or the accompanying iOS and Android app, communicate using the device's two-way voice function, and even set up geofencing boundaries.
