Child Tracking Device Chip
My Buddy Tag is one of the more reasonable wearable child tracking devices out there. It doesn't work on GPS but rather with Bluetooth. You can set safety zones for your children and get a notification if they cross it, and you are also alerted if the watch is submerged under water for about 5 seconds consecutively. This is helpful for parents who have a pool.
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.
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.
Just like other Bluetooth trackers, the range for the device limited at 40 feet indoors and 80-120 feet outdoors. So while it's not on the same level as GPS trackers, it's a strong choice for those shopping on a budget.
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.
Tinitell is a single button wrist child tracking device which comes with its GPS and bluetooth locator. It also comes with iPhone and Android applications that can be used to track the movement of your child. It also allows parents to communicate with the child over the device itself with the press of a button.
There's LTE on board for voice calls, a voice assistant named CLOVA and translation between English, Chinese, Korean and Japanese. Plus there's a range of strap colours and four dog emoji watch faces. This one was announced back in summer 2018, and there hasn't been an update on price, release date or global availability just yet.
Trax Personal GPS Tracker is an extremely tiny child tracking device which can be discreetly slipped into their bags or jeans pockets. It transmits data over the internet using 3G net connection, and you can track your child using your smartphone.
The Gator is a UK version of a popular Chinese children's smartwatch. If communication is your main concern, it offers 12 month or rolling contracts for its multi-network plans that use whichever signal is strongest. That means you should always be in contact with your kids.
Parents can also use it to perform remote voice monitoring. The Wonbo Kids Smart Watch Q50 cannot be shut down on the device itself. It can only be shut down using the parent's smartphone application. Furthermore, this smartwatch allows your child to call you. It proceeds to record the first 15 seconds of their voice for future use. Best of all, this smartwatch can go for up to 96 hours on a full charge.
