Chatterbox Go

The portable phone for kids that goes where they go

Chatterbox Go is a screen-free phone for kids built for life outside the front door — the school run, walks to a friend's house, the soccer pitch, sleepovers and weekend adventures. It's a kids phone with GPS but no internet, no apps and no ads, so your child can call home and you can see where they are without handing them a smartphone they aren't ready for. It is, very deliberately, a kids phone no internet can sneak through.

Each Go runs on our managed mobile data plan that's voice and Parent-Hub-only — there's no browser, no YouTube, no TikTok and no way for a stranger to message your child. You approve every contact in the Parent Hub app on your iPhone or Android, draw safe zones on a map, and receive arrival alerts when your child reaches school or home. Calls are encrypted end to end, battery lasts a full school day, and the chunky silicone case is built for playgrounds and pockets.

If you've been comparing options and looking for the best first phone for kids, a healthier alternative to a smartphone for kids, or a "dumb phone" with the safety features parents actually need, Chatterbox Go is built for you. Prefer something that lives at home for after-school check-ins? Take a look at Chatterbox Home — our WiFi landline for kids that pairs perfectly with Go for siblings and grandparents. New here?
