I tested the Cosmo JrTrack 4 kids’ smartwatch and found a lot of great features, but it’s essential to know exactly who it’s best suited for.
My kids’ favorite part of my job is that they get to test various kids’ tablets and smartwatches. I’ve seen the kids’ wearable market grow from introductory to advanced in recent years and reach a wider user base than ever. At this point, there are dozens of kids’ smartwatch brands selling in the US alone, so it can be hard to differentiate the various wearables and choose the best one.
If you’re considering getting your kids a smartphone but are wary of all the unchecked content available on it, or you’re unsure whether they’re old enough for the responsibility, a kids’ smartwatch could be the best choice. The Cosmo JrTrack 4 that I’ve been testing, for example, is easy for children to carry around while keeping them connected to parent-approved contacts.
This type of kids’ smartwatch is a perfect way to introduce children to technology, independence, calling, and texting while allowing parents to control what their children can access. So it’s worth noting that kids need to be able to read to use the Cosmo JrTrack 4; it doesn’t have any games and isn’t made for the younger crowd; it’s built as an entry-level communication device for older kids.
To set up the Cosmo JrTrack 4, you first download the Cosmo app on your smartphone. There, you can add approved contacts for your child to communicate with, including parents, grandparents, aunts and uncles, and friends with smartphones or smartwatches.
