Hey all,
I’m looking for something that can track location of my preschooler who starts new school soon. He’s too young to get a smartphone, so I have to rule out app based solutions I guess.
My initial research found virtually nothing. One candidate is GeoZilla, which sells nice devices and their pivacy policy looks okayish regarding location data, but it still relies on their servers of course. Another option would be an iWatch, which again puts trust into 3rd party, and the device is quite expensive for a small kid.
Any privacy-oriented trackers out there that I’m missing. Maybe there are some smartphone alternatives that can have cell connectivity and GPS and apps installed, but with much simpler interface?
Update: Thanks everyone! I got GeoZilla tag for now. The app doesn’t require personal information, which is good. However, it’s annoyingly reminds to enable location for itself to track “me”, which I don’t need at all. Garmin came as a strong second, mainly due to my child age. Garmin devices are not for very young kids, I believe. And it costs more than GeoZilla. I still have some time to think if I really want this, though. It’s not too late to return GeoZilla tag
Tile is also another option but not sure how their policies are but relatively cheaper option and uses other people apps like airtag depending on location of course using Bluetooth.
I’ll check that one out, thanks!
