Any Apple kit for your kids is completely useless if you yourself don't use Apple crap.

- gmueckl 3mo agoYou literally can't set up am Apple watch for kids without a parent-owned iPhone. It's the kind of vendor lock in thst all other companies get immediately chastised for, but Apple always manages to get a pass. I hope they pay their marketing teams adequately for those amazing ways in which they twist public perceptions.
- Grombobulous 3mo agoI don’t like that aspect either, to be clear, but the majority of American parents use iPhones and don’t have any plan to leave the platform, and there are other kids smartwatches on the market not made by carriers.
- Grombobulous 3mo agoI am sure there’s a decent product not made by a carrier, like the Fitbit Ace LTE. To be fair, that specific product wasn’t yet released when OP got their Verizon watch.
