Review on πŸ“± TBidder Kids Smart Watches: 4G GPS Tracker, Video Call, HD Touch Screen Waterproof, Android iOS Compatible by Tim Knain

Revainrating 5 out of 5

(NO MORE) Better value for money than famous kids GPS watches!

UPDATE: This clock and app used to work mostly as advertised and despite complicated setup and lots of bugs I've been very happy with it. I don't know what they changed, but now it's slow, very buggy and most of the features don't work well, IF AT ALL. I reconfigured the APN and IP settings and updated the app (it helped a little but not really. It did NONE of the things it promised, now I can text (but no notification when text comes in or out) and track them again.) The problem seems to be with the application/service and not with the device. Nobody can call the device at all. The only way I can video call them is through the app, and neither audio nor video works enough to hear or see each other during a call. Deleted photos take minutes if ever to appear forever when you fear for your child's safety. Location accuracy is very poor most of the time with LPS and there is no way to turn it off and just use a much more accurate GPS. (It goes into GOS mode randomly, but I always need that precision). Step tracking and other advanced features, forget them. I still think it was one of the best options when it came out and worked better, but more and more companies are making these products and I need one that WORKS to protect my child. I ordered TickTalk4 when it was already out. (a much more expensive watch that does everything this watch claims to do and more except the math game) but hopefully they REALLY do it. If it works as promised, the extra money will be worth it. Previous rating: When kids reach a certain age, they need phones to be safe, but internet on phones also puts them at risk. This watch is the perfect solution. Excellent battery life, voice text, video chat, real-time GPS tracking and fencing, SOS function (sends you a text with the GPS coordinates and then calls up to three numbers of your choice until someone answers) remote photo function. Only accepts calls from numbers you authorize. Tracks steps. When ours stopped working properly, the company replaced it with no problem. We bought the Speedtalk simulator for only $5 a month! The mobile app is in elementary English, it takes a little getting used to, but it works well in the end. The freedom and peace of mind this product has brought to our family is incredible. I've looked at similar Verizon and Sprint products and they cost more per device per subscription and don't have as many features. I am very happy.

Pros
  • Great for a small home
Cons
