Note: We have stopped taking orders for this product.
We hope that the next version will live up to the great promise & have higher customer satisfaction.
We recommend the wonderful Ion-Kids line of products.
The Wherify Satellite GPS Child Locator Watch was designed as a Child Locator Device capable of operating over long distances.
However, after extensive testing, BrickHouse Security has decided not to sell the Wherify Locator Wristwatch for the following reasons:
- It's a great idea, but it simply does not work. The technology required is two years away from actually working in the real world.
- Unreliable Battery life.
- Coverage is not reliable.
- Device is bulky and heavy.
- No service or support from the Manufacturer.
-
GPS is not the best solution for Child Safety.
BrickHouse Security currently recommends the
Ion Kids Child Locator System.
We continue to test new products that promise to help parents keep their children safe. However, We do not expect that any manufacturer will be able offer a reliable GPS Tracking Device the size of a wristwatch any time soon. When we find one we are ready to stand behind we will be sure to let you know.
If you are interested in receiving an e-mail announcement when we do have a long distance tracking system, use the form below to join our mailing list.

How much do love your child? More than the dog you're careful to keep on a leash every time you take him outside for a walk? I’ll bet you do. Here’s the perfect product: a snazzy-looking digital wristwatch for your child that just happens to contain a satellite homing device so you can pinpoint junior’s whereabouts at any given moment.
It’s a truly sad commentary on society that there’s even a need for a tracking system like this. But given the tragic fates of several young children in California, Oregon, Utah, and other locations over the past couple of years, the need for a device like this is beyond any doubt.
Here’s all you need to know:
- The Wherify Wristwatch Locator may save the life of your little loved one.
- Wherify’s Locator uses the U.S. Department of Defense’s mult-billion-dollar Global Positioning System (GPS) Satellite Network combined with the largest 100-percent digital, nationwide PCS Wireless Network.
- To locate your child, simply log in to the Wherify Web site with your ID and password and view a map. Alternatively, you can call a special toll-free number and you’ll be told the closest street address.
- When you put the device on your child’s wrist, it locks. It can be removed remotely, with an Internet-initiated command, or by pressing a particular sequence of buttons on the device.
- With a full battery charge, the device can do about 40 “locates.” The battery charges in six hours, and the device is water resistant to a depth of eight feet. Depending on environmental conditions, the device can pinpoint the wearer’s location to within 90 feet, and usually within 10 feet.
What else can you do? Here are a few features:
Choose Map Style Select a standard street map or custom aerial photo. Then zoom in, zoom out, pan right or left for a better look.
Breadcrumbs Soccer game? Play practice? With the “breadcrumb” feature, you can pre-set times for “locates” to ensure your child arrives safely. (Of course, if you do one “locate” every half hour, you’ll get a pretty good idea of how your child spends his or her day.)
Unlock Device Remotely
Once your child safely arrives at the pool party, you can unlock the locator via Internet or phone so your child can remove it.
Depending on which of four service plans you choose, you’ll get from 20 to 80 “locates” per month. You can purchase additional “locates” for a small fee. While some might suggest that the Wherify device is necessary only in densely populated areas, the watch can also be used to keep track of campers or hikers, activities that take place away from urban locales.
