Karri Messenger 2

A screen-free, pocket-sized messenger that lets kids and parents stay in touch through voice messages — no smartphone required. Works on mobile data and Wi-Fi with a built-in SIM, so it goes anywhere. Kids press a button, record a message, and send it to a parent's phone app or another Karri. Parents get live GPS tracking, safe area alerts, and full control through the companion app.

IPX7 waterproof, drop-resistant to 1 meter, up to 4 days of standby battery life, and light enough to clip onto a backpack or belt loop. End-to-end encrypted. Available in 7 colorways. Requires a monthly plan for connectivity.

Kind of like a modern day walkie-talkie. It’s completely screen free and lets you keep in touch with your child via voice notes while giving them freedom in the neighbourhood. Win-win.
