The magic is all around when the vívofit jr. 2 is on your kid’s wrist. This swim-friendly activity tracker is tough enough to make it through playtime, and with 1+ year battery life, there’s no stopping the action to recharge. Parents manage chores and rewards from the parent-controlled mobile app, while kids experience app adventures.
Stylish and Strong
Tough and durable, vívofit jr. 2 features a customisable colour screen and comfortable band. Your kid can show their Minnie Mouse style and rock it everywhere from playtime to football, during bath time and even to bed. The user-replaceable battery will keep kicking for more than a year — no charging necessary.
The Parental Personal Assistant
Parents use the free mobile app to manage the vívofit jr. 2 activity tracker. Parents can view activity1, responsibilities, sleep and more after syncing2 with compatible Apple®, Android™ and Amazon Fire Tablet devices. From the app, add profiles for multiple kids to see each child’s steps, sleep, daily activities and chore data when it syncs3 to your mobile device. Invite the whole family to compete in a daily step challenge, assign tasks and chores, designate a reward virtual coin value, and find out how many coins each child has. Those in-app coins can be redeemed by your kiddos for agreed-upon rewards. It’s all controlled right from your device.
Rewards, Reminders and Responsibilities
Kids will see just how fun and rewarding household chores can be. With vívofit jr. 2, parents assign chores and schedule alerts from the smartphone app, and kids’ bands show them their new jobs to do. These can be set up to recur weekly or even daily — perfect for children who need reminders. And for youngsters who procrastinate, schedule alerts in the parent app so vívofit jr. 2 reminds them to finish their homework, brush their teeth and more. The alert will remind them with an icon what they’re supposed to be doing. Then, the child can start the task timer on the device so they know how long they have left.
Give Kids the Power
Is your child ready for a little extra responsibility? By enabling Kid Mode in the vívofit jr. app, you can give your kid limited access to monitor and check off their own chores and view the latest mission in their app adventure. It's simple. Just log into the app on your child's device, turn on Kid Mode and create a passcode. The passcode is needed to modify chores and change coin amounts, so your kiddos won't be able to alter those features without your permission.
Friendly Step Challenges
Friendly competition comes to the playground and the backyard. Toe-to-Toe™ step challenges lets kids sync with nearby friends to challenge each other (one-on-one challenge) — or even themselves — to timed step competitions. Once complete, they’ll see their total number of steps during the challenge and find out if they triumphed over their friends or beat their own personal best. It’s all controlled right from the wrist. Download the Connect IQ™ app to challenge your kids to a step competition.
Access Even More Fun
vívofit jr. 2 lets your kids get their hands on more styles and app adventures. All you need is a new band to open up a new world of adventures. What’ll it be next? Track activity, and engage in galactic app adventures with a Star Wars themed band? Or will your kid show off their Marvel Avengers band, and join in app adventures that let them save the day like a true hero? It’s up to your kid.
