    TRACK SPORTS, SLEEP AND MORE

    KID-APPROPRIATE FEATURES

    CHECK-IN REMINDERS
    Your child can “check in” at their location, which sends a notification to the Garmin Jr. app1. And you can send a reminder when it’s time to check in.

    MANAGE UP TO 20 CONTACTS
    Use the Garmin Jr. app to assign parents or guardians who have full permissions to contact, locate or manage your child’s Bounce.

    COLOR DISPLAY
    Even on bright, sunny days, kids will be able to see everything on the color display. And they can customize it with fun watch faces.

    KID-FRIENDLY WEATHER
    Kid-friendly weather updates with basic forecast and “feels-like” temperature1 help guide kids to wear weather-appropriate attire.

    NO DISRUPTIONS
    Use the Garmin Jr. app to turn on school mode or do-not-disturb to keep your child’s Bounce from distracting them during school hours or at night.

    STOPWATCH AND ALARMS
    Your kid can use a stopwatch on their wrist or set alarms and timers to help remind them when it’s time to do homework or when piano practice time is up.

    PLAY FUN GAMES
    Your child’s Bounce smartwatch also has fun games to play during parent-approved times. They’ll get a kick out of the puzzle slider and math flash games, but they’ll really love showing you up during Toe-to-Toe™ timed step challenges.

    This app has a delay with the real information. We think it could be improved. Also it does not show the exact location of my kid. Otherwise, it is a very good and useful product.

    My wife has Alzheimer's so I was looking for a less expensive, very rugged AND not obvious as the usual trackers are. Many AZ patients will not wear pendants. The watch is perfect as AZ patients will admire the watch and the larger screen are good for old eyes. Low and behold along comes Bounce. What a good starting point. . Ways to make it better for kids and people who need to be tracked. Allow caretaker to adjust the time period reporting period> For example: 30, 15, 10,5, 2 minutes. Display location checks posted to map. 30 minutes between reporting is far to long for any person to be unobserved in many cases. There is a market there for this watch way beyond where you are now.

    So far my daughter and I love the watch. Full of features and the thing I like the most about it is that I can track when my daughter leaves school and I can live track her on the bus which is great because her bus is super inconsistent and it eliminates me being late to her stop or standing there for 35 extra minutes when her bus is late. I wish she could text other than pre made messages and to other mobile users in addition to people who download the Garmin app but at least she can get ahold of the people who really matter. Watch is bulky even she has said it but I reminded her that it has to be bulk for the amount of things it does and she's okay with it. All things considered I'm happy with the investment.

    We purchased this for our son because we're not quite ready to give him a cell phone yet. However we wanted a way to reach him. He had a different smart watch for about five years and it was really important to us that he was also able to track his activity and his steps. This watch gives parents the ability to track their kids location. My only complaint is that the wristband that came with. It was hard to change my son preferred a nylon wristband and Garmin didn't make it easy to get this one off.

    I liked the watch since it had almost all the features I needed, but unfortunately, it lacked phone call functionality for my child and me. As a result, we returned it and opted for an Apple SE watch instead.

    We bought this for our 6 yo daughter. She's going to summer camp which has many field trips. The location and timing of notifications are down to seconds. The moment we leave any boundary and we're together we intermittently receive a notification that she has left the area!

    As an everyday watch, the battery drained way too fast and my child isn't using anymore. Love the app, the chores features, the steps challenges, the games... great watch!! I love Garmin products. But until the battery last at least a week for a child - it isn't worth it. My child already lost interest in it under 4 weeks.

    Great features,. Great games for kids under 8 yrs old. Love the communication feature. Can not text but can record a short message. Battery life is short does not last longer then about 2 days before you have to charge.
