The Fitbit Ace LTE has parental controls, a built-in tracker and you can call, text and leave messages
Smartwatches are only getting more and more advanced. But as it continues to pack in features for fitness tracking and productivity, Google’s Fitbit is innovating in a new way: It’s releasing a line of smartwatches for kids, and the features it’s rolling out are pretty dang cool.
Fitbit Ace is a fitness tracker, but through Fitbit Arcade, it uses movement-based games to get kids moving for fun — without the emphasis on tracking exercise statistics that you get with adult fitness trackers.
Its activity rewards also have limits, so kids are encouraged to move, but not to over exercise. It has calling and texting abilities, but parents can add contacts and set controls on who and when kids can use those features. It also has “School Time” to limit certain features when kids are in class. Fitbit Ace is available for preorder starting today and will release on June 5. It’s designed for kids ages 7 and older and has two plans available: a $9.99 monthly plan and a $119.99 annual plan; both plans include 4G LTE, GPS, calling, messaging and access to Fitbit Arcade.
In this article: Google Fitbit Ace LTE – Kids Smartwatch with Call, Text, GPS, and Activity-Based Games, Ace Pass data plan required – Mild-Shadow, Google Fitbit Ace LTE Band – Kids Smartwatch Band – Water Resistant – One Size Fits All – Strange Arcade and USB-C Fast Charging Cable – Compatible with Google Fitbit Ace LTE
Each Fitbit Ace also has an “Eejie,” a character that lives at its center that gets happier the more goals the wearer hits. Changing the band on the Fitbit Ace can change the appearance of the Eejie, unlock new houses for it and more.
Fitbit Ace is available in two colors, and you can also choose from five interchangeable bands. Check them out below.
