5. Unlimited Calls and Messages
Unlimited calls and messages to/from contacts lets your child have the freedom to interact with their contacts as much as they like. Parents can add up to ten contacts in the app and personalize the access for each contact. You don’t have to worry about additional charges! The sound is surprisingly clear both to the Gizmo Gadget and from the device.
Gizmo gadget wont stay charged for even a day of wear with no usage at School fo my daughter:(
I have had 2 tablets glitchy in kids app now also
purchased Dec2016/Jan 2017
One major flaw with the Gizmo Gadget. If the device comes out of the wrist band everything stops working.
in the instructions it says that it notifies you, it does not. and the GPS and phone do not work after it comes out so there really is no way to find it when your kid walks in and says it fell off at lunch.
I do not get an alert on my phone when I get a message from my son’s gizmo. I just have to check it periodically throughout the day. I’ve looked, but do not see how to turn the alerts on so that I hear a sound when I get a message. Is there a way to turn on the alerts.
Hi Charretta! Does this help? https://www.verizonwireless.com/support/knowledge-base-201141/
That did not help. It does not explain how to get an audible notification sound when a child sends a message to the parent.
I am looking for something for my 91 year old father. This would allow us to track him (if necessary) and give him ability to call. How large is the band for the gizmo?
Unfortunately, these wristbands are child sized.
Just bought one for my 10 year old son for his Birthday. My ex-husband, his wife, and I can all track him, which we love about the Gizmo. I just wish we could choose which notifications we want to receive. We all get notified when he puts it on/off quiet mode, when he reaches fitness goals, etc. We don’t need/want to have all of those notifications. That’s my only complaint.
What a great review for the Gizmo! Thanks for sharing it with us!
That’s great! It’s definitely a wonderful option for younger children.
