Add a kid to your family in the Spacetalk App during family setup or any time after. Enter their name, age and device, and Spacetalk sets up the right kind of account for them.
Who this is for: Parents and carers adding a kid who uses a Spacetalk watch or a mobile phone to their family in the Spacetalk App.
How do I add a kid in the Spacetalk App?
Step 1: Open Add a Kid
You can open Add a Kid in two ways:
During family setup: On the Who is in your family? screen, tap Add a Kid.
At any other time: From the Spaces screen, tap the blue + button in the bottom-right corner, tap Add Member, then Invite a new member, and choose Add a Kid.
Step 2: Enter their details
In the drawer that slides up, add a photo (optional) and their name, set their age, and choose their device: Watch or Mobile. The next step depends on what you choose and your child's age.
Step 3: Complete setup for their device type
If your child has a Spacetalk watch:
Tap Continue — you will pair the watch to their profile. If they have a Spacetalk Mobile SIM, their phone number is added automatically when you activate it. If you are using a different SIM, you will enter their number manually. See Pair your Spacetalk Watch.
If your child has a mobile phone (under 13):
Enter their mobile number, or tap Select from Contacts to choose it from your address book, then tap Continue. Spacetalk sets up their account and sends a setup link to their device by SMS so they can get started.
If your child has a mobile phone (13 or over):
Enter their mobile number or select it from your contacts, then tap Continue. Spacetalk sends them an SMS invitation. When they tap the link in the SMS, they set up their own account and join your family.
