How do GPS watches work?

10 May, 2022

Parents always tend to keep their children close to them. But sometimes, with the hectic schedule or mobility, it's impossible to be around the children all the time. Even in a safe place with senior surveillance like school, some parents still worried about their children.

As if a toddler on a road trip, they keep questioning, 'Are they there yet?' Right now, we can tackle that worries with technology, in this case, the smartwatch, to keep an eye on them. Smartwatches are a perfect device to be used by children as they don't belong to a luxurious good but have a handy function to monitor the children. It is always attached to the children's wrists, which means that the watches will always be with them without worrying about losing them.

Wonlex Kids Smartwatch

Smartwatch was invented as a luxurious good worn by adults for the first time. It helps keep track of daily activity and always needs to connect to the smartphone. This means you will need your smartphone around your smartwatches to keep them on. Wonlex comes to provide friendly smartwatches for children supported with GPS & LBS positioning, pedometer, alert, protection, and control remotely with parents' smartphones. You will not forget the features of a camera, flashlight, speakers, and microphone that you can operate remotely from the phones as long as the kid's smartwatches have the internet connection to support their utilities.

Wonlex watch can run as a GPS tracker for kids more than just a watch. Before we jump into the GPS feature, let's talk about how this watch is well-designed for children. The Wonlex Kids Smartwatch has a colorful design with rubber silicone straps that have a lot of holes to fit on children's wrists, even tiny wrists. Its touchscreen monitor helps the users to operate the watches efficiently.

The watches themselves are made of a solid frame that varies in shape and size from square to round. All of the kids' GPS watches are featured with a front-facing camera that makes them available to capture pictures, record the video, or do the video call. You can also set your lock screen on your watches with those pictures. Some watches even have two cameras to let you take different pictures from different angles. They also have speakers attached to them and notify any notification of messages, calls, or alarms.

The power of these GPS watches for kids comes from 500mAh Lithium Battery that can stand by for 100 hours. But the battery lifespan also depends on how you use the watches' functionality. Of course, the more functions you use, the quicker the battery can drain. Once the battery is draining, you can quickly charge with the magnetic charging cable.

4G GPS Watch

Tracking the children is the watches' primary and most used function. Especially the parents, they feel benefits with this function. As the kid's tracker watches use a 4G connection system, you would probably need a SIM card to operate it. This 4G connection system allows the kid's smartwatches to not rely on wifi, Bluetooth, or the existence and distance of the smartphone. While applying for the SIM card, you can track the watch's location using GPS. So, as long as your children are wearing the watch, you can know who they are in actual time location without any delay. Even not only the live time location, but you still can also track the history location of your children and the routes that they had before.

You will need an app installed on your smartphone to see the location of the 4G GPS watches. You can download the app on the apple or google play store. Once it is downloaded and installed, you are ready to go. You can always locate the smartwatch from your phone's screen, whether the maps view or satellite view. If you have never used the kid's GPS watches before, you need to synchronize the watch with your phone through an application. Usually, you will need to scan a barcode or receive the authentic code to link your watch to your phone. The app and the watch program are also available in many languages: English, Spanish, Russian, Vietnamese, Mandarin, and many more.

After synchronizing the watch, the first step you need to give information about your children, including their names and emergency contact. Once all the pieces of information are completed, you can track the watch's location. No other function, you can set a safe zone up to 2.000 meters, and the watch will notify you if your child is going to the edge of the safe zone.

Only track the location?

There will be a sensor on the back of the watch to detect the heart rate and monitor the body situation during exercise. It also features a pedometer to detect the steps and any other body movements, especially on the hands and hips. With this feature, you can monitor the activity of whoever is wearing this watch, in this case, your children. 

More functions, you can even set the alarm, stopwatch, timer, have a call with the watches, and control the volume of the watches. You can also turn up or down the screen's brightness to have comfortable eyesight. 

More protection

Since kids use this watch, it's a little dangerous if they will receive any random messages from the unknown. It will be another way of method to scam. But Wonlex Kids GPS watch has a function to allow you to control from which number your children watch receive the message. This means your children would never get any messages from random contacts and give the parents control over whom your children communicate with. If someone sends your children a message, you will receive this message in your app first. And then, if you think that this message is essential, you can always forward the messages to your children. So, everyone who wants to communicate with the child must be approved by the parents, or the messages will never be sent.

The other protection feature is the SOS button. Many watches will have one button that is easy to detect and press. This will usually lead you to the SOS button. When you press the button quite a long, it will activate the SOS signal and alert, then send it to the emergency contact, letting you know that your children are in trouble. Hopefully, you wouldn't need this feature, but it always feels safer knowing it as long as your children know how to use it.

Be more personal

Every smartwatch might have similar features, so how do you make your smartwatch different from others? You can be more visual to differentiate your kid's smartwatch from other kids' smartwatches. Kids always love being extra, so sticking a small sticker on the smartwatch could be a great idea to personalize your kid's smartwatch. Find a small sticker that expresses your kid's, then here you go, a personalized smartwatch special for your kid. Sure your kid would love it.

You can also pick a nice photo or graphic to become the smartwatch's lock screen. In this way, if you ever had an experience of losing your smartwatch (besides turning on the locating function, of course), you can easily describe what your smartwatch looks like. So, make your smartwatch as eye-catching as possible.

Lastly, every child would love to have a smartwatch. They will be thrilled and have a lot of fun with the gadget. This is a must-try item for parents to keep track of their children. The kid's GPS smartwatches are also an excellent option for parents who want to limit their children's phone usage. Kid's smartwatches have the same communication function as a mobile phone but are not too abusive like a mobile phone.
