How do I set up preset messages on the Spacetalk watch?

How to create and manage preset messages your child can send quickly from their Spacetalk watch.

Preset messages are quick-select messages your child can send from their watch without typing — for example, "I'm on my way home" or "Pick me up please". You set them up through the Spacetalk App. The watch comes with some standard preset messages included, and you can add or customise them at any time.

How to create preset messages

Step 1: Open the member profile

Open the Spacetalk App and tap the profile image of the child whose watch you want to update.

Step 2: Open the actions menu

You will be taken to the map screen with the member profile card — swipe the menu upwards to see more options.

Step 3: Select Watch Settings

Tap Watch Settings in the menu.

Step 4: Open Preset Messages

Under the Messaging sub-menu, tap Preset Messages.

Step 5: Add a new message

Tap Add Message, type the message you want your child to be able to send (emojis can be included), then tap Create Message.
