For parents
Child Safety Band: GPS Tracking and One-Press SOS for Kids
Between the school gate and your front door there are bus rides, tuition classes, playgrounds and crowds. A phone is exactly the thing a child loses, breaks, or cannot reach in time. Kavach puts a one-press lifeline and live location on your child's wrist, with no screen to distract them and no smartphone required.
Why this needs more than a phone
Indian childhoods are lived in transit. A typical school day chains together a bus or van ride, hours inside a campus, an auto to tuition, and a walk home: four handovers where a parent is trusting someone else's attention. The standard answer is to give the child a phone, but that trades one worry for three: screens in the classroom, a device worth stealing, and a battery that is dead by the time you actually call. A safety band takes the opposite approach. It does one job, location and SOS, and does it for 72+ hours per charge on its own 4G connection, whether or not a phone exists anywhere in the picture.
The moments parents actually fear are short and chaotic: a child who wandered off in a market, a bus that is forty minutes late, a festival crowd that separates a family in seconds. In those moments nobody dials carefully. That is why Kavach's SOS is a physical button, not an app. A press sends your child's live location to up to three family members in seconds, and geo-fencing means you hear about a wrong turn when it happens, not at dinner time.
How Kavach is used
School runs without the "reached?" texts
Draw geo-fences around school, tuition and home. The app tells you the moment your child arrives or leaves each one. No calls to the driver, no anxious refresh.
Crowded places
Markets, melas, weddings and station platforms are where children slip out of sight in seconds. Live GPS shows you exactly where they are; a press of the SOS shows them you're coming.
The years before a smartphone
Ages 6 to 13 are the gap: old enough to be out of sight, too young for a phone. A screen-free band covers those years without introducing social media, games, or something expensive to lose.
Kids who do have phones
Phones die, go on silent, and live at the bottom of school bags. The band's 72-hour battery and its own 4G connection keep working when the phone doesn't.
The moments it is built for
The school bus is late
Open the app and see exactly where the bus route has your child, instead of calling a driver who shouldn't be answering while driving.
Tuition after dark
Evening classes end after sunset for most of the school year. Geo-fence the class and watch the walk home live.
A festival crowd
Ganpati visarjan, Durga pandals, a mela. The places childhood memories come from are also the easiest places to lose a hand you were holding.
Playing in the colony
Freedom to roam the neighbourhood, with a boundary alert if the game drifts past the gate you agreed on.
A first solo commute
The metro ride to a new school is a milestone. Live location makes it a shared one, without you shadowing the train.
Common questions
Does my child need a smartphone for Kavach to work?
No, and that is the point. The band has its own 4G LTE-M connection with a pre-activated IoT SIM, so it works even if your child has never owned a phone. You see their location and receive SOS alerts in the Kavach app on your own phone.
Will it distract my child in class?
No. There is no screen to play with, no games, no messages, no camera. The band shows the time and its status, and its one interactive element is the SOS button. Several schools that ban smartwatches allow screen-free safety bands; check with yours.
What happens when my child presses SOS?
A press-and-hold of the physical button (with a double buzz so your child knows it worked) sends an alert with live location to up to five family contacts in seconds. If the band loses network in a basement or a lift, it stores its GPS fixes on-device and uploads the trail the moment signal returns.
Is it safe for a child to wear all day?
The band weighs 28 grams, lighter than most watches, with a hypoallergenic silicone strap option, and it is IP68 water-resistant, so hand-washing, rain and a dunk in the pool are all fine. Charging is magnetic: 0 to 80% in about 40 minutes, and a full charge lasts 72+ hours.
Can both parents and grandparents see the location?
Yes. Up to three family members can be on your child's safety circle, and every one of them receives SOS alerts and geo-fence notifications at the same time.
