Focus mode for school
Eliminating distractions so kids can concentrate at school.
JrTrack is perfect for device-restricted schools
Focus mode is Cosmo’s built-in solution to help kids stay distraction-free during school hours. You can set schedules that automatically lock down non-essential features on the JrTrack watch, giving you and your school peace of mind that your child can stay connected for emergencies only.
Completely locked down
With Focus mode enabled, the watch only shows time and allows SOS mode.
Completely Silent
No notifications or alerts come through during Focus mode.
No social media or internet
The watch does not support any social media or internet.
Parent & school agreement
Want your child to bring their Cosmo JrTrack watch to school? We've put together a printable Parent & School Focus Mode Agreement, designed to help schools and parents work together.
You can print this out and give this your school to help explain to them that with Focus mode enabled, JrTrack is only a safety tool, and that you'll be locking down their JrTrack during the school day so it's not a distraction in class.
"We believe families should never have to choose between focus and connection. We’re here to help make sure they have both. So educators can keep kids on track. Parents get peace of mind. And kids stay connected when it matters most"
Russell York
Founder & CEO, Cosmo
