I love that I can easily communicate when needed with our daughter. it's the perfect device for us so far, we're happy. now the younger ones want one but in time...I think 4th grade was a good age at least for us.

I absolutely love this watch as it allows for tracking and connectivity with my child. she can message me vice versa and it also allows me to set chores and see her daily activity. Excellent product
