Kid-Friendly Smartwatches

The Gabb Watch Lite is an Entry-Point Wearable for Children

— November 17, 2021 — Tech
Gabb Wireless, a tech company, specializing in products for kids, has launched the Gabb Watch Lite, a simplified, entry-point wearable with GPS tracking and customizable, safe zones, offering parents a valuable tool for ensuring their child's safety.

The new smartwatch is promoted as the first step within Gabb Wireless's "tech-in-steps" approach to introducing smart technology to children. The Gabb Watch Lite is a barebones unit designed for young children, which could be upgraded to the Gabb Watch (step two), and later the Gabb Phone Z2 (step three) as parents see fit.

Aside from GPS and safe zoning technology, the Gabb Watch Lite also includes a Gabb Moji messaging system, SOS/emergency contact button, a step counter, and a digital clock. “The Watch Lite extends Gabb’s product lineup to account for even younger kids and is the perfect first-step technology device,” said Gabb CEO Nate Randle.
