How do I add a kid to my family in the Spacetalk App?

How to add a child as a Managed Member to your Spacetalk App, whether they have a Spacetalk watch or their own phone.

You can add a kid during family setup, or at any time afterwards. Enter their name, age, and device — Spacetalk sets up the right kind of account in the background based on their age and device.

How to add a kid

Step 1: Open Add a Kid

You can do this 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, they set up their own account and join your family.
