Love the limitations and that there are no workarounds. Sometimes there are issues with apps downloading and updating and game data has been lost which is not ideal but the safeguards outweight that inconvenience

Tony was very patient and diligent. He didn't give up on me even though nothing was working.

Pinwheel phones have been perfect for my teens- flexible, but with plenty of options for parents to manage as much as needed. And the support staff have always been able to solve problems I have, or to help walk me through things. Thank you so much!!

It took a little while to get the fix we needed but they didn't forget about us and kept us updated as to the progress with the update/fix.

It's a valuable service. Sadly, continual tech problems have us frequently considering moving to a regular phone.

The pinwheel phone helps me keep the dangers of the internet somewhat at bay for my 13-year old. The phone does seem targeted towards a younger customer, without much of a plan to age with their consumer. My son has been using this phone for about two-plus years, and there is no mechanism to upgrade the phone when it breaks or feels out-of-date. In addition, it doesn't provide Apple-level support for obvious reasons. When you have an issue, the support system is dependent on the user/parent to carry a heavy lift toward trouble-shooting. That said, my teen is generally safer than his peers, I can stay in communication with him, and I am able to monitor his interactions with friends, while allowing him the freedom he needs at this stage.

Everything you'd want in a kids phone. Very safety minded!

I was pretty frustrated to find an app wouldn’t download and the amount of time I had to spend to get it to work. Julia helped out and had been very professional and responsive.

We are very happy with our Pinwheel service! I love that I can control which apps my child has access to on different times and days. It's easy to find him with the GPS tracking. I love the freedom and independence it gives him while keeping him safe. There's a great variety of apps to use and it's been perfect for my 10 year old.
