First, be sure to try restarting your watch at least 2-3 times after purchasing and activating a Cosmo Mobile service plan (you may need to wait a minute in between restarts). Multiple restarts can sometimes be required to establish a successful cellular connection after activation.

Frequently asked
About Cosmo
What if I'm having problems activating my JrTrack watch?
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: too much of the wrong kind of tech, too fast. There's worrying data over mental health and childhood developmental as well as plummeting trend lines on the time kids spend outside and with friends. None of that is to mention the dangers of 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 connective technology and 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 has no open internet or social media with standard out-of-the-box settings. It's a completely safe and simple device that's the perfect first phone for kids.
With JrTrack, parents do have the ability to select from a growing library of kid safe apps that do include simple puzzles and games. These are fully parent-administered and can be added or removed at any time, along with setting daily time limits. Our belief is that parents know best, so we give parents the tools to build the right experience for their kids at each step.

JrTrack can currently hold 100 parent-approved contacts. Parents can add two types of approved contacts:
Contacts: Calling + Texting*
Guardians: Can call, text, and use GPS tracking (must download the Mission Control parent app)
