Why it helps

Catch changes early—without hovering

Most families don’t need to watch every moment. A few well-timed alerts and a weekly review can reduce panic and keep expectations consistent.

Know when something changes

SIM/network changes, low battery, and offline signals can explain missed check-ins or routine drift.

Protect account security

Security-related signals help you react to suspicious changes before they become a bigger issue.

Stay calm and consistent

Use alerts as prompts for short check-ins—not as a reason to constantly monitor.

ALERT TYPES

What alerts you can review

Availability depends on OS rules, device settings, and permissions. The goal is to highlight meaningful changes you can act on.

WHY IT MATTERS

Why these signals matter

Alerts aren’t about reading everything—they’re about noticing changes that can impact safety, routines, or account security.

  • Reduce panic by seeing what changed first (battery, network, SIM)
  • Spot account-risky changes like SIM swaps sooner
  • Keep devices charged and reachable with simple reminders
  • Use signals as a calm conversation starter, not a confrontation
When to act
Simple
SIM change: confirm it’s expected, then review account security.
Offline + low battery: often explains missed check-ins.
Network change: useful context for safety + connectivity.

USE CASES

Common ways families use alerts

A good rule: treat alerts as “check-in prompts.” If something looks off, verify first—then adjust routines or security settings.

After-school and travel check-ins

If a device goes offline or the network changes, you can check in calmly and confirm everything’s okay.

Lost phone and device recovery

Low battery or offline signals can help you act quickly (charge, locate, or secure the device).

Account security and fraud prevention

SIM change or unusual access signals can prompt password updates and carrier checks when needed.

FAQ

Quick answers for families using alerts to stay consistent and secure.

What is the Alerts & Device Health feature?
It highlights important device and security signals—like SIM/network changes, low battery, or offline status—so parents can respond early without constantly checking.
Will alerts work on iPhone and Android?
Often yes, but capabilities vary by platform rules, settings, and permissions. Your setup determines what alerts are available.
Do alerts drain battery?
Alerts are designed to be lightweight, but any background safety feature can affect battery depending on your device and what’s enabled. Start with only the alerts you truly need.
What should I do if I see a SIM change alert?
First verify with your family. If it wasn’t expected, consider contacting the carrier and updating account passwords/2FA as a precaution.
How often should I check alerts?
Weekly review is usually enough. For urgent signals (like a SIM change), it’s reasonable to check sooner and confirm what happened.
