IT IS
- A stand alone mobile phone with its own sim card, mic and speaker
- A tracker using GPS outdoors and WIFI indoors
- A tool to help parents connect with their kids in the event they become separated
- A tool to give parents greater peace of mind when their child can walk to and from school on their own
- A device which can save a parent’s time eg. when the bus is running late due to weather
- A device which can give your child confidence to explore just that little bit further knowing they can call you
- A communication device which does not have the harmful effects of the internet, social media and games
- A cool watch to wear
IT IS NOT
- A smartphone as it does NOT have internet, social media, chatrooms and games
- A safety device – It is a mobile phone – We don’t consider our mobile phones safety devices and the same holds true for the Gator watch
- Like an apple watch as it does not need to be paired with a phone
- A replacement for responsible parenting or teaching kids about safety
