This wearable child tracker is one of the most unique we’ve seen—and it’s so discreet that your kids (and any suspicious characters) won’t be tempted to tamper with it. The B’zT Patch can be added to any item of clothing or backpack to give you extra eyes on kids that like to wander. It’s ideal for outings to amusement parks, the beach, or the grocery store. The patch uses a proximity-based Bluetooth chip that can withstand a turn in the washer and a tumble in the dryer. When your kiddo wanders out of range, you get an alarm that lets you know instantly.
Pros
Affordable Because it’s not a smartphone or a smartwatch, the B’zT Patch comes with a cheap price tag. You can pick up one patch for around $25, which makes it affordable for families that need to protect multiple children. The app lets you register up to five kids, and you can track them all at the same time.
Machine-Washable You can attach the patch and forget about it. It’s designed to withstand the rigors of regular washes. And the battery should last up to 10 months—but the lifespan can vary depending on how often it’s worn and the number of washes.
Inconspicuous This is the sneakiest of all the child trackers we’ve seen. It doesn’t look like other wearables, so it hides in plain sight. This provides the extra comfort of knowing that the device would likely go unnoticed in an attempted abduction, so the bad folks couldn’t disable it.
Cons
Limited Range The B’zT Patch uses Bluetooth instead of GPS, so that limits the tracking range. The company claims that it works up to 130 feet, but walls and other obstructions can interfere with that range. And each patch can only be paired to one phone at a time, so if you want to hand off tracking to another caregiver, you need to disconnect your phone and then have them connect using their device.
Standout Feature: Fun Designs
Your kids will be excited to pick out their favorite patch design, which should help you avoid fights when it’s time to wear patch-adorned clothing. Patches come in a number of brightly-colored patterns that feature outer space themes and animals.
