Comments on GizmoHub (Retired) for Android

★★★★★ Julissa Ina · Jul 15, 2026
This app has worked very well for our family for the last few years. Family members who switched to the Verizon family app are experiencing many issues and can no longer send messages to my kids, which makes them feel sad and isolated from extended family. Verizon, please reconsider discontinuing the gizmo app! It works just fine and allows my children to communicate easily and safely with family members no matter who their sell carrier is.
★★★★☆ D.J. Rothe · Jan 20, 2026
If I had 2 suggestions it would he to allow parents to disable the games on the watch. Not just school mode but disable the games all together. I would also like an option of talk AND text for contacts not just call only.
★★★★★ Chelse Manwell · Apr 22, 2026
Great for young kids. Mine was 8 when I got it for him, now he is 10. Soon I will get my 5-year-old one as well. I can call him, text him, video call him. And allow up to 20 contacts. See his location, it's perfect. The only thing I would change is to be able to turn it on from my phone in case it's lost. We have lost it multiple times while fully charged because I cannot turn it off from my app. That needs to be fixed especially in case of emergency.
★☆☆☆☆ Brian Schaaf · Apr 3, 2026
Users will now be forced to pay $15 a month to retain the free features that were promised with the gizmo watch. Perhaps when you force the move, gizmo owners should be in a different tier than what the verizon family app intends? These are children, not other adults or teenagers. 1 location alert for children isn't acceptable and neither is this bait and switch low blow. Verizon, synonymous with being ripped off...
★☆☆☆☆ Erica Atwood · Feb 8, 2026
App is failing and malfunctioning. Currently, on the phone for 2 hours with Verizon trying to add my child's replacement watch. We've gone through multiple steps over and over again, to no avail. The app continues to crash.
