Great watch for our daughter to get a bit of independence.

We love the kids nav watch! Bought for my 7 year old it's great for giving him a bit of independence and being able to stay in touch without needing to give him a phone! I would also recommend the screen protectors as well - same as all smart watches it's worth investing in a screen protector!

Bought Kidsnav Edge a year ago for my 8 yr old and it is brilliant. Would 100% recommend. Have had no problems and it does so many things. Puts your mind at rest knowing where they are and being able to contact them anytime. Best buy.

We originally bought a Moochies watch, which was the biggest mistake we made (check out their Trustpilot reviews. Awful company). Our friends then told us about Kidsnav and we're so pleased they did. Delivery within a couple of days and easy to set up. We had a minor issue with the GPS, but after we changed a setting on the watch, it worked perfectly. Big thank you to Sally in customer service who replied to our emails out of hours (as we were going on holiday and had a couple of questions about using the watch in Spain). Thanks all x T x

We purchased this for our daughter who has additional needs. She would not be safe with a mobil phone as she is too Vulnerable and we would worry that she would lose it.
She constantly runs off and we have to go looking for her and often find her at strangers homes. She has no sense of stranger danger or road sense. We bought the watch as it can be linked to an app on our phones and we can track her, this gives her some independence and helps to build our trust. It has a call feature so she can call us if she needs to and we can call her too. We can also control what numbers she has on the phone. So far it has been a great purchase, well worth the money.

I've purchased 2 Kidsnav watches. One for my 5 year old and another for my 8 year old autistic son. We were going on holiday and as any other parent who is worried if their kids get lost, I wanted to find a way to keep track of them or communicate with them if something happened. I found Kidsnav, made order online and the delivery was very fast within 3 days I got the watches. I asked them if they could send them as soon as possible as I was going on holidays 3 days later. They were amazing and responded back and sent it right away so I got the watches the same day that I was flying to Italy.
The instructions were very clear and straightforward on how to set up the watch including a video.
I used the watch in the UK and in Italy. I had a small issue of trying to make the watch work in Italy at the beginning but it was easily solved by moving the simcard to my mobile phone and manually activating to the Italian networks. Once I did that, it worked very well and I moved the simcards back to the watches and they worked perfectly.
Pros:
- Very easy to set up and easier for children to understand what to do. My son is non-verbal autistic and can't easily communicate so the fact he knew he could press the button and directly videocall me was a great feature and easy for him to use it.
- GPS, amazingly accurate. It does give you very specific location. I did it manually and not automatically as I didn't want the watches to end up with no battery, just in case.
- Children can send you voice notes messages! My daughter did this and loved communicating through the watch.
-There's a lot of functionalities in the watch which I still need to learn how to use.
- I started researching GPS watches 4 months before travelling and decided to go for Kidsnav due to highly positive comments and because it's Pay as you go. Most of the other providers tie you to a monthly contract and if I did this, was extremely expensive for 2 kids and especially as I wouldn't be using it for every single day. This to me was a great deal. Also many of other providers I found customers complaining about the app not being accurate or just confusing.
-Kidsnav's customer service was super nice and replying to me right away and very helpful. Excellent team and thank you so much for replying to my questions and concerns right away.

I don't have any cons to report as I do believe this watch to be excellent, however, I wanted to suggest a few ideas that could make this watch absolutely way ahead of any other in the market. The addition of whatsapp, calendar sync so you can add tasks to your kids and showing up to them in both visual and text format, and adding the functionality of a Schedule. I think for ASD kids this would be superb, being able to manage their daily tasks and them to only clear it once done. It helps to learn and establish routine. My son used to have one of this from Octopus but their functionality was not that great but the idea behind was excellent. I would also adjust the reward watch so that you can adapt the type of reward and they are notified e.g. going to the park, out biking, etc. I think functions like these help the kids be more engaged to the watch and get the best out of it.

But like I said, great watch, reliable, amazing GPS, great communication apps, excellent price, and very responsible customer service. Thank you for creating such an amazing watch!!

Amazing watch, bought for my son and been used regularly for 8 months.
Had a panic when I first got it during set up but had fantastic (and patient!) customer service - they got back so quickly to give help and guidance. Have had friends that have bought cheaper versions and they have all broken within months. The screen protectors also a fantastic idea (on our second one now and they have kept the screen scratch free and unbroken).

Our KiDSnav watch is absolutely great. Our daughter is using it for 3 years now, without any problems. It has a lot of useful features and works out cheaper to run than some others. With the GPS we can always check where she is. It's a great alternative to a mobile phone. I couldn't recommend it high enough. The customer service is also great and responds promptly to any enquiries.

Great watch that’s easy to use for children. Gives peace of mind when the kids are out playing

Great watch! The best feature is the text messaging. I can send my son a text message and he can text me back via his watch. Less worrying for me whilst he is out

I got the KidsNav watch for my 4 going 5yr old girl...

I like the watch it was not too expensive.
I like how it's simple and it just works yes it could be a better screen and louder speaker and longer battery life and better camera but then expect to be paying more...

I like the app. It is easy to use and also just works
I also like you do not have to be stuck in a contract... I top the SIM with the minimum amount and she never runs out.

I say it just works because I've just received MyFirst Fone R2 for my other daughter 7yr old... Well, that doesn't just work, unfortunately...

Yes, it has a better screen better battery better camera than KidsNav but it is a lot more expensive so I expect it

However, the App is not as good it takes a lot longer to setup, and it's not very user-friendly...
I dislike it does not have Satellite view on the Map view like KidsNav has...

I need to pay £9 a month for Network Esim on myFirst Fone R2 which isn't to bad but not as good as Kidnav...

The worst part nothing just works..... although I am paying £9 a month myFirst Fone R2 Network calls don't work currently waiting for a reply as to why.... Data calling over wifi only works 10% of the time and video calling 50% of the time.... Whereas Kidsnav so far always works without fail...

myFirst Fone R2 is a letdown....so Kudos to Kidsnav for making a more reliable affordable Watch and App BUT I just wish you did offer a more upgraded version watch with a better screen, camera speaker etc for older kids...

I wouldn't have gone and looked elsewhere and bought the myFirst Fone R2....

I would like to see Kidsnav make a similar spec watch using the same app which I would have happily bought over the myFirst Fone R2

Piece of mind for such a small price. Such power technology on a small watch. Worth every penny

Amazing device for my 9 year old. It has given him a new found freedom and a way for us all to feel safe.
The features are fantastic both on the watch and app.
Highly recommend

Worth every penny. The most advanced GPS watch for kids we've used. We could not be without it now! Thank U Kidsnav!

Wow, we brought a volicity watch back in 2020. The watch was not charging. I emaiked Kidsnav to ask if the 4 pins had to be out on the charger as one was in.
They sent us a new charger for free.
Great service, great product.
