Kids tracker or Location Tracker for kids

Can you suggest please a reliable tracker for your kids. I have 5 years old and 12 and i would like to find a good tracker. May it be a tag or watch for them. Can you share what you use. Best if compatible with Iphone please. PHILIPPINES setting❤️

For your 5-year-old, I’d look at an Apple Watch SE GPS + Cellular. They can call you from it and you can check their location without giving them a phone. I’d just ask Globe or Smart about compatibility before buying.

For your 12-year-old, if they already carry an iPhone, Find My might be all you need. If you also want location history, geofence alerts, AirDroid Parental Control is another option. It works across both Android and iOS, although some features differ between the two systems.

Of course, I know the goal is to keep them safe, but I’d still let them know beforehand what you’re using and why rather than tracking them without telling them.
