Sending Messages from your TickTalk 4 Smartwatch

Sending Messages from your TickTalk 4 Smartwatch My TickTalk

One of the best parts about TickTalk is giving your child the ability to stay connected to loved ones, near and far. With our Secure Messaging Center, your child gets the texting experience while you get peace of mind with end-to-end encryption and only parent-approved contacts. So how does messaging work on TickTalk?

All messaging takes place between your TickTalk smartwatch and the TickTalk App

All communication takes place using our AWS-protected cloud server to protect your child's personal data best. With encrypted messaging, your conversations are converted into scrambled text with a unique verification code that only you have the key to. This allows us to protect your child’s personal information, block unknown numbers from messaging your child, and making sure that your child is only being contacted by people you approve.

Message up to 50 Parent-Approved Contacts

Anyone who wants to message with your TickTalk must download our free TickTalk App. You’ll receive a notification for anyone who requests to add your child and you’ll be able to set individual access levels for each contact. If you have Add Friends enabled in your TickTalk App > Settings, your child will also be able to message friends with TickTalk watches that they have added.
