National Coverage Minus Alaska

Kids, like everyone, need a phone with reliable service. Gabb phones are built on the back of the nation’s most reliable network and offer great cell phone service coverage. Coverage is offered throughout the United States.

Hawaii is included in Gabb Wireless’ cell service coverage; however, the company does not currently offer any coverage in Alaska.

Safety Features to Protect Kids

The cell phone market for kids is growing, and there are many options for parents and guardians to choose from. Gabb Wireless’ phones offer several safety features to keep kids safe, including the following:
– No internet, no social media
– Active GPS tracking
– Unlimited talk + text
– Gabb Music kid-safe streaming
– Gabb Guard spam blocker
– Parent-managed safe third-party apps on the Gabb Phone

Plus, there is an ever-growing list of safe (parent-approved) third-party apps on the Gabb Phone Plus.

Affordable Products and Plans

Gabb Wireless sells two types of phones as well as a watch (a phone kids wear). 

Gabb Watch 2
This is a great option for younger kids or those who prefer a stand-alone watch device. The Gabb Watch 2 triples as a cell phone, GPS device, and interactive watch. It comes in two colors: Silver and Space Gray. It has an affordable upfront cost as well as a competitive monthly fee. You can see the company's website for a cost breakdown. 

The Gabb Watch 2 also comes with the following features:

• Reliable GPS and tracking functionality with customizable safe zones that notify you when your child leaves and enters specified locations
• Unlimited talk and voice/preset text on the nation’s most reliable network
• 15 customizable text message presets, voice messaging, and emojis
• Up to 25 parent-managed contacts (no outside calls or texts)

• Parent-controlled lock mode to limit distractions during school hours 
• Flashlight app easily accessible from the drop-down menu
• Resistant against sweat, water, dirt, and sand
• Gabb Go (a fun task manager and step counter)

Gabb Phone
A device that looks like a regular smartphone, the Gabb Phone allows unlimited talk and text with the option for MMS (the ability to send/receive picture messages and group text). This device has no access to the internet or any third-party app stores. It can be tracked via GPS and is a great option for a first phone. The Gabb Phone has a competitive upfront price and monthly cost. You can see the company's website for the cost breakdown.

Gabb Phone Plus
In addition to all the features of the Gabb Phone, the Gabb Phone Plus is a premium Samsung quality device and comes pre-installed with safe apps as well as optional parent-managed safe third-party apps.

Customer Reviews

Reviews left on BestCompany.com consist of parents thanking Gabb Wireless for creating a mobile device that allows them to easily communicate with their children but doesn't include all the headaches or safety concerns that come with modern smartphones.  

In fact, most Gabb customers were extremely satisfied with the included apps and features installed on the phone, stating that it was just enough to entertain their child but not cause them to ignore the world around them. Other customers were happy with the phone and its long battery life (due to the fact that kids can't drain the battery on internet browsing or social media).

A number of reviews also mentioned the company's customer service. In particular, many customers felt that Gabb Wireless responded to their questions in a timely manner and often went above and beyond to help.

Cheaper Options Available

If you are looking for an even more basic and affordable phone that lets you keep in touch with your child and track their location using GPS, there are lower-priced options with great reviews. While the company's pricing is competitive for what you get, parents can find options for half that cost with lower tech features. Think walkie-talkies on steroids with a large range.

GPS Capability Limitations

Other companies' phones allow GPS to navigate using a maps app, which may be an added feature on the Gabb Phone Plus in the near future.
