Frequently asked questions
About COSMO
What is COSMO?
COSMO Technologies is a Denver-based, venture-backed family tech company on a mission to bring families closer together. We're passionate about building better solutions that keep kids safe and families connected. COSMO was founded in 2020; since then we've become a leading company designing and manufacturing electronic devices and software solutions specifically for kids and families, like our award winning COSMO JrTrack kids smart watch. We’re dedicated to building a better future and giving families connection, safety, and peace of mind.
Why are we passionate about family tech?
Today, there’s a growing crisis for families and kids when it comes to technology. Kids are losing their childhoods too fast. There's worrying data over mental health and childhood developmental as well as plummeting trend lines on time spent outside and with friends. None of that is to mention the dangers of early exposure to explicit content, cyberbullying, and more. The problem is that our kids are being exposed to addictive and manipulative devices and platforms at earlier and earlier ages. Too often, parents and caregivers feel like it's "all or nothing" when it comes to connection and technology with kids.
We're passionate about building a world where kids can be kids again. Where families take back the neighborhood and playing till the street lights come on isn't old fashioned. A world where kids feel safe, parents feel confident, and families are always together. Can family tech really do all that? We think so.
The problem is that families simply haven't had the right step-by-step solutions to both keep kids safe and help them thrive in a digital world. That's why we're building an entirely new kind of technology from the ground up - an ecosystem designed specifically for the unique needs of kids and parents. That’s #BetterTech for families: a simpler, smarter, more thoughtful kind of technology that changes everything.

JrTrack can hold up to 10 parent-approved contacts. Parents can add two types of approved contacts:
- Contacts: Can only call the watch (no location tracking or texting)
- Guardians: Can call, text, and use GPS tracking (must download the Mission Control parent app)

Yes! JrTrack has the ability to call 911. You can turn this safety feature on / off in the settings of the device. To do this, open the JrTrack settings app on the watch, then tap "Device". Next, scroll down until you see "Enable 911 Calling" where you can enable or disable. When enabled, your child will see 911 as an option in their approved contact list. All 911 calls require a double confirmation before a call is placed.

Yes! Swapping wrist band colors is a fun way to customize your JrTrack! We offer two types of wrist bands: Active Fit silicone bands and Comfort-Fit woven velcro bands. All JrTrack wrist bands are compatible with JrTrack 1, JrTrack 2, JrTrack 2 SE, and JrTrack 3.

Memberships & Service
When do I purchase a COSMO Mobile Membership?
COSMO Mobile Membership plans are purchased once you receive your JrTrack watch. You'll need JrTrack in-hand to activate a plan, which connects your watch's SIM card with cellular service.

Why do I need a COSMO Membership to use my JrTrack watch?
You'll need to activate a COSMO Membership plan to activate your JrTrack's pre-installed SIM card and enable cellular service so you are connected with your child anytime, anywhere. The full set of COSMO JrTrack features (e.g. calling and GPS tracking) require this cellular service. COSMO offers a variety of different types of Membership plans for flexibility and affordability for any family budget (see details in the FAQ below).
