Camera and Photo sharing via text messages

jjdd

I'd like to upgrade to a Gabb Phone from the Gabb Watch for my 11 year old, but one of the features I like about the phone is that there's no picture taking or sharing. Is there a feature on the Gabb Phone for parents to 1) turn off the camera app access altogether, 2) turn off sending/receiving images via text message, or 3) allow this for limited contacts?

Hi @jjdd,

Great questions! It's exciting to hear that you are looking to upgrade from the Gabb Watch to a Gabb Phone. I'd be happy to help answer these questions for you.

1. The camera app on our Gabb Phones are not able to be deactivated at this time.
2. Sending/receiving images via text is a feature that can be added or not depending on which plan you choose for your device. You can see the "Image or Group Texting) option shown below for the Gabb phone 4 and Gabb phone 4 Pro. You can find these plans on our website HERE and HERE.
3. When selecting the option with or without the ability to send/receive images through texting, you are toggling the feature fully on or fully off. There is not an option to toggle this feature on for certain contacts at this time.

Hope this helps!
