How it works

1. Set up Safe Kids in the Greenlight app

Install the Greenlight app, then scan the QR code on your device to activate it

2. Charge it and clip it on

Connect to Wi-Fi during setup for faster location updates, then tuck it into your kid's backpack or pocket.

3. See where they are, anytime

Track live location in the app and get notified when they arrive at or leave places like school or home.

They're ready for more freedom. They're not ready for a phone.

Most kids get their first phone around ten. Most parents wish it were later — and the reason it happens early is usually the same: the moment they start walking home alone, you lose visibility.

Safe Kids gives you the visibility back without handing over a screen. Live location, place alerts, and an SOS button they can press. No apps. No games. No group chats. No notifications at 11pm.

One ounce. Clips to a backpack. Lasts a month on a charge.

FAQs

Who can see my child's location data?

Only the account owner and person you have added to share the location with will be able to see the location and no one else. Your child's location data stays private

How accurate is the location? Can it track near and far?

Greenlight’s tracker uses advanced Hybrid Location Technology, combining Wifi, IoT Mobile Networks, and GPS satellites to deliver global location precision. That means stronger network coverage, no matter the distance between your phone and the device, even in areas of poor cell signal.

Outdoor GPS (Global Positioning system) range is accurate within 3-5 meters/ 10-16 feet.
Indoor WPS (Wi-Fi Positioning System) range is accurate within 10-30 meters / 33-98 feet.

Should GPS and WPS fail, our Cell Tower Triangulation is accurate with 100-250 meters / 328 to 820 feet.

How frequently does the location update?

Control the frequency of your device’s locations updates within your application:

  • Emergency mode: Provides location updates every 60 seconds for 60 minutes after Emergency mode has been activated. After 60 minutes, Emergency mode reverts to Standard mode to preserve battery. Emergency mode is also enabled when the device’s SOS mode is triggered with a tap of its button.
  • Standard mode: The device’s default tracking mode. Provides a location update every 5 minutes if a location change is detected.
  • Eco mode: Provides a location update every 10 minutes if a location change is detected.
How long does the battery last?

While other trackers last just a few days, Greenlight’s tracker has a powerful 750mAh rechargeable battery: on a single charge, the battery can last between 2 and 4 weeks depending on the location update setting (every 5 or 10 minutes), and on environmental conditions including cellular network coverage.

Does the device work internationally?

Greenlight Safe Family Devices are supported in 120+ countries worldwide.

How big is the device?

Weighing just an ounce, our compact device is just 0.65 inches thick.
Dimensions:
47 x 37 x 17mm
1.8 x 1.4 x 0.65 inch

What’s included with my purchase?

Included with your tracking device are the device’s embedded SIM card, a USB-C charging cable, fabric case, a wrist lanyard, a set up instruction guide and your device’s data subscription.

Why is the subscription required?

To leverage the Greenlight Safe Kids device's precise location tracking, place alerts, SOS alerts, and more, your device requires a subscription data plan, which may be cancelled at any time.

I already have a Greenlight plan - will this work with it?

Yes, it should work along side your greenlight plan. You could scan the device qr code and it will automatically get added to your existing greenlight account

How do I cancel my renewal?

You can manage or disable auto-renewal for your subscription under Device Settings in the Greenlight app.
