I just read this article from Pew Research about how parents manage kids devices. https://www.pewresearch.org/internet/2025/10/08/how-parents-manage-screen-time-for-kids/?utm_source=Pew+Research+Center&utm_campaign=2d805b5222-Internet_Science_2025_10_28&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_-2d805b5222-401240485 Most parents (like…
I saw this reel from Gabb, and it made me think about whether parents could actually band together and stop giving their kids social media. https://www.instagram.com/p/DQNIf8_jubf/ I'm not a mom yet, but I already dread the battle with screens. I don't think "everyone has it" is compelling enough for me to give my kids…
It’s that time of year again—time to start thinking about spending time with friends and family, planning exciting holiday activities, and of course, giving gifts. 🎁 We want to make sure that you and your child have a great experience this holiday, so here are two things to help ensure your Gabb gift is successful: Holiday…
This may be a bit repetitive since there are several posts about screen time, and the responses to those posts may eventually answer my question I'm sharing here. So I need a bit of help. My niece is often glued to her phone and seems a bit unhappy because of it. My niece does turn it in at night when she goes to bed and…
I don't remember what plan I signed up for when I bought Gabb in the first place. It's completely unintuitive how to install additional apps on the phone. I looked at the instructions from this post and couldn't figure out how to do this.…
Hi All! Is there an option for filtering the emojis? That are some flag emojis that I did not expect to be on the Gabb phone but it is there.

Hi Gabb Team, I’m a parent using the Gabb Phone for my child, and I really appreciate having GPS location tracking through the MyGabb app. However, I’ve run into a major limitation. The “Guardian Contact” feature that allows other trusted adults (like the other parent) to view location is only available for the Gabb Watch,…
Why is the app library so limited, with only certain approved apps available? I understand the intention is to protect my child, but as the adult, I’m the one accessing and managing it. I’d like to know why we can’t choose apps freely from the entire Play Store—especially since we’re capable of researching and evaluating…
Hi Everyone, My daughter uses Duolingo to learn Hebrew, and now that she has a Gabb Phone Pro we decided to add the app to her phone. Unfortunately, no matter how much we try, we can't get the Samsung Keyboard settings to download a Hebrew keyboard, or any keyboard other than the 12 that came already downloaded on the…
I took out the SD card to try to transfer music to my Gabb phone and now it's telling me I have no SIM card. I tried pretty much everything and it still won't register that it has the SIM card.
We keep trying to delete this audio file from the phone, but it keeps getting re-downloaded. How do I stop this?
Can you video call with your child without WiFi connect?
My son had a previous Gabb phone that was lost. We upgraded to the Gabb Phone 4 and now I can't activate it. It says the QR code is invalid, when I put in the IMEI number manually it says I need a plan but when I go to my app and dashboard it says I already have a plan. It basically keeps going around in circles. We don't…
How do I turn OFF the wifi and keep it off? For some reason the wifi keeps turning on after I turn it off. I have tried all the basic ways to turn it off through all the settings. It must be a software issue or an app that I cannot control. Please help, thanks!
For a month now, my daughter has not been able to send or get messages. She has also not had her phone ring when called. The bill has been paid on time. It shows a signal and she is also still connected to our WiFi. I have tested it multiple times. I have called her while sitting next to her and it not ring on her phone. I…
I recently send my son a picture from his baseball game and he wants to set this image as his background image. Does anyone know how to save an image from a text message on the Gabb Pro 4?
