Apple Watch For Kids Service Now Live In India

Tech giant Apple on Wednesday made its Watch for Kids feature available in India, offering easy calling, texting, and activity monitoring.

The Watch for kids is functional “even if they don’t have their own iPhone,” said the company in a statement. This feature may help parents who do not want to give mobile phones to their children.

“Apple Watch For Your Kids is available in India on cellular models of  Series 4 or later or Apple Watch SE, paired with iPhone 8 or later running the latest watchOS and iOS,” Apple said. “It brings communication, health, fitness, and safety features of Apple Watch to kids and other family members who do not yet have an iPhone,” the company added.

Apple highlightes Parental Controls as Key Feature

Parents can set it up through their iPhone, making it easy to call and text. They can also know the location of their children while all personal data stays securely encrypted. Parents can approve all contacts, ensuring kids can safely use the communication features of the Watch.

Besides children, the entire family can benefit from the important health and safety features of the Watch, like Emergency SOS. Additionally, Maps, Siri, Alarms, and the App Store provide greater independence without needing an iPhone.

“Kids using Apple Watch For Your Kids will have their own phone number through a separate cellular plan, and by using their own Apple ID,” Apple said, adding that a wireless service plan for Watch is required for cellular service, currently available through Jio in India.

Children can also follow schedules and family events using the calendar feature, learn to manage tasks with reminders, and view photo albums synced from a guardian’s iPhone. Using the App Store on Apple Watch, kids can download third-party apps directly on the device, while parents can manage what is available for download.
