As the Assure Touch uses 2G and 2.5G networks, they are not guaranteed to work in USA as some American mobile networks have stopped using 2G and 2.5G networks.  American mobile networks are changing to 3G and 4G networks only.

The location data may not be sent to your app in areas that are not covering 2G and 2.5 G and similarly you may not be able to make calls to and from the watches.

We do not advise you buying our watches for use in the USA as we cannot guarantee that the watches will work in the USA.

The watch works with all mobile operators with the exception of one Irish operator, Virgin Ireland. The watch can make outgoing calls to Virgin Ireland mobile and landline numbers but Virgin Ireland’s mobile and landline network are unable to call the watch currently. There are no issues with Virgin UK calling the watch.

If your mobile operator or landline is with Virgin Ireland please contact us at support@watchovers.com before ordering your watch.

You can cancel your subscription at any time by emailing support@watchovers.com quoting your watch mobile number and requesting cancellation.  We will deactivate your sim card and your subscription. Unfortunately part monthly subscriptions cannot be refunded.

To reactivate your sim card, simply re-subscribe and forward a copy of your subscription confirmation email to support@watchovers.com and we will reactivate your sim card within 1 business day.  There is no charge for deactivation and reactivation.

The Assure Touch is splash proof and can be worn while washing hands and general splashing. The watch is not suitable for submerging in water.

The length of the watch strap is 220mm including the watch case and will fit a wrist size between 130mm and 200mm.

The smallest setting is 130mm but the watch can be worn a little loose for wrists smaller than 130mm.  Please measure your child’s wrist before ordering the watch to ensure the size is suitable.

No it does not come with either a UK or Irish sim card.  The watch comes with an ‘always roaming’ SIM card based in Spain with a Spanish mobile number.

With our ‘always roaming’ Spanish sim card included, unlike a standard sim card, they use the strongest mobile network, enabling the watch to get mobile coverage even in weak signal locations, vital in times of emergency.

All calls to the SIM card from outside Spain will be charged by your mobile/landline operator at their tariff for calling Spain.  As the device is not intended for long communications, the cost of calling the device should not be significant for general use.

Most mobile operators let you add low rate international calls for no additional charge or for a nominal charge, but you must contact them and Opt in. Check with your mobile operator as it varies from operator to operator.

Unfortunately, there is no guarantee that all of the features of the Assure Touch watch will function with a sim card other than the one that we provide.  Therefore, the Assure Touch watch is only available to buy with our pre-fitted sim card and we can only provide support for the Assure Touch watch using our sim card.

With our ‘always roaming’ Spanish sim card included, unlike a standard sim card, they use the strongest mobile network, enabling the watch to get mobile coverage even in weak signal locations, vital in times of emergency.

At WatchOvers, we feel strongly that an SOS emergency device should not be on pay as you go sim , as you cannot risk the service not being available when you need it, i.e. in an emergency. In addition we have found pay as you go services are not usually as good as our service. When our sim cards are roaming, they use the best available network for that location, whether it is our mobile provider or not. With Pay as you go sim cards, you do not get this service.

In addition for Pay as you go and for many other services, the sim cards can be subject to “steering’ by the sim card provider. Steering is the process by which a mobile operator decides which partner their subscribers will use whilst roaming. These choices are usually exercised to take advantage of better prices from partners or based on bi-lateral agreements they with partners in that location. The quality of better priced networks is not usually as good. As part of our agreement with our mobile provider, our sim cards are not subject to steering.

There are no SMS text message fees as all messaging is free through the App. You cannot send SMS text messages from or to the Watch. You will receive alert messages and notifications through the App for low battery, Geo-Zone alerts and when an SOS call has been made.

No, the watch transmits messages and notifications through the App and does not require SMS for messaging or commands. This reduces the cost as there is no text messaging costs. Voice messages are sent using data.

There is NO lengthy 12 or 24 month contract, it is just pre-paid monthly, with No Contract, so you can Opt Out Anytime. Simply pay month to month which is debited automatically in advance to your account on 1st day of each month, giving you the freedom of a 30 day contract.

No, our Watch-Phone is a stand alone mobile phone that you can make calls from and to. Only phone numbers that you have added through the App, can call the watch or can be called from the watch.
