Parents can control the smartwatch via the Fitbit app, with the watch storing 24-hour location data to ensure privacy. The smartwatch supports both calls and messaging, and up to 20 contact numbers can be saved. Additional features include 3D games, activity tracking, and fitness goal setting.
To utilize the calling, messaging, and location sharing features, a Fitbit Ace Pass subscription is required. The subscription costs $10 monthly or $120 annually.
