Adding a senior or dependent — such as an elderly parent or a dependent adult — works just like adding a kid. You’ll enter their name, age and device, and Spacetalk sets up the right kind of account in the background.
Step 1: Open Add a Senior or Dependent
You can add a kid in a few different ways and moments in the app
During family setup, tap Add a Senior or Dependent.
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 Senior or Dependent.
Step 2: Enter their details
In the drawer that slides up, add a photo (optional) and their name, and set their age or date of birth.
Choose their device: Watch or Mobile. The next step depends on what you choose.
If they have a Spacetalk Watch
Tap Continue — you’ll pair the watch to their profile. If they have a Spacetalk SIM, their phone number is added automatically when you activate it, so there’s no number to enter. If you’re using a different SIM, you’ll enter their number manually. See Pair your Spacetalk Watch.
If they have a Mobile
Enter their mobile number, or tap Select from Contacts to choose it from your address book. Tap Continue. We’ll send them an SMS invitation — when they tap the link, they set up their own account and join your family.
