The gamification piece is half-baked. Fitbit is only allowing kids to earn more access to the games installed on this Fitbit Ace. Kids will get bored of those games very quickly and this feature won’t be used as often as it should. Fitbit should heavily consider integrating this new Fitbit Ace with Google Family Link. This would allow parents to set physical activity goals for all apps downloaded on all devices owned by the child, instead of limiting it to just the games installed on the Fitbit Ace. An integration with Google Family Link would allow parents to block access to all apps installed on all devices thus extending the demographic to ages above 10 years old. https://families.google/familylink/?utm_source=sem&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=us-family-link-bkws-exa&utm_content=rsa&gad_source=1&gclid=EAIaIQobChMIr9eGpquzhgMVF0h_AB08HA0hEAAYASAAEgJvKvD_BwE&gclsrc=aw.ds

The pp on this! 👀😢. I have twin kids so need to know: Is it built more durably? Extended warranty? As a long time customer, I can’t seem to get my FB screen face to stay on beyond a year and that’s with totally normal use. I wear it, check the time and log my workouts. I want to believe. Help me believeeeeeeee!!!

This is great because were not going to be those parents that give our kids cell phones before they get to high school but we need to know where they are and how to get in touch with us if they need help. More and more great products in this space.

Because that’s what kids need, tiny screens on the go :) If it didn’t have a screen and was a tracking and emergency calling device it would’ve been a more appealing product

Amazing. Time for young to start tracking their fitness activities. FitLynk will look into supporting it as soon as it becomes available.

16 hours battery life? Mandatory data subscription and roaming not included? Are you serious?
