Phone Buddy is a mobile phone application that turns a regular smartphone into a restricted phone that kids can use to keep in touch with their parents, as well as allow parents to track where their kids are.
Phone Buddy allows for many different modes that allows you to turn off certain applications and features, allowing parents and caregivers to feel comfortable letting their young children play with their phone without the risk of deleting important information (such as photos or contacts), or accidentally calling a work colleague!
Phone Buddy is perfect for your 9 year old son who wants to walk around the block by himself, but you want to be sure he can call you (without calling anyone else!)
Phone Buddy is ideal for your todder who wants to play games while waiting with you at a Doctor's appointment, while ensuring she can't delete anything off yourphone.

- Select which phone numbers your phone can call
- Enable GPS tracking so you always know where your kid is
- Set off alerts so that you know when your kid arrives/leaves a predetermined destination

- Turn your phone into a baby monitor
- Play 'white noise' to help your baby sleep
- Configure multiple different modes, so that you can use your phone for helping your baby go to sleep, or switch easily to a new mode so that your 10 year old can walk to school on his own comfortable in the knowledge that he can call you id needed
