TickTalk was created in Southern California when our Founders, two parents and entrepreneurs, were searching for a safe way to stay connected with their young daughter without getting her a cell phone.
After searching the market, they quickly found that most available phone products for kids lacked safety features or were missing elements any cell phone would have. With no existing product meeting their needs, they decided to develop their own.
With only the positive features of a smartphone, TickTalk gives your child a safe introduction to technology with no games, social media, or internet access, with you in control of the features you want your child to use.
What makes TickTalk different from other children’s smartwatches is that our products are designed by our internal team from start to finish, without any third-party vendors, to offer our customers the highest level of security over their child’s private information. Most of our competitors use a version of the same generic parental control app, making it an easy target for hacking opportunities and privacy loopholes.
Despite being a startup, we invested in building our own Research & Development Team, with dedicated engineers who come with years of experience at companies like Samsung and Apple, to custom design our parental control app and smartwatches. We offer 24/7 security over our backend along with end-to-end encrypted messaging and partnered with one of the world's most secure cloud servers powered by Amazon Web Service (AWS) to protect user data.
In the early days of our company, our founders would drive all over Southern California, sometimes over 100 miles from our offices, to personally help our customers set up their TickTalks. Now, we have a dedicated Southern California Support team who is available Monday-Friday 9:00AM-6:00PM PST to answer any questions you have every step of the way.
Smart Watch For YouthWe're proud of what we've accomplished and we look forward to sharing it with you. Welcome to the future of connecting!
With our children spending more time in front of screens, making sure they are staying active has become a concern for many parents. Getting kids away from their smart devices can be a struggle, but a kids smartwatch with Activity Tracker makes being healthier seamless and fun. If you’ve been struggling to encourage your child to be more active, here are the top five benefits of a kid's fitness tracker that will benefit your child physically, emotionally, and mentally.
While the majority of parents consider their children physically active, studies find that less than 25% of children over age 6 are getting the recommended 60 minutes per day of physical activity. With a kids smartwatch that tracks steps, you’ll get a clearer insight into exactly how much your child is moving by being able to see their daily, weekly, and monthly steps. Knowing their current activity levels can help both you and your child come up with a game plan for physical activities that interest them while inspiring them to hit their goals.
The average child spends only 4-7 minutes outside and a kid's fitness tracker can help motivate your child to have fun and play with daily step goals! Our kid’s smartwatches even come packed with a Step Championship for your child to compete for the most steps with their friends, creating a healthy competition to move more. Meanwhile, parents love that while their child is out playing with friends, they can know their child is safe with GPS location tracking.
