A kids smartwatch requires an app to set the time. The app requires registration to work. I can't express how much I hate products like this.

Hello, I’m reaching out from CoinTrust Partners where we focus on secure and profitable crypto opportunities designed for sustainable growth and financial freedom. Would you be open to learning more about how we can help you invest wisely in crypto?
Agree. Along those lines, I wanted to see if I was eligible for an accountant USAA. Had to submit personal info and register. Hard pass. Then did an AI search and found my answers. Probably should have done that first, and will in the future.
Restrictions on an iPhone for kids is infuriating for eternity…

There's also the option of "goodbye". That's what I picked, and then suddenly they gave me the code to the keybox, so I could let myself in without any digital means.

Also frustrating that you can’t set location for lock screen’s weather widget 😔
The UI that killed the internet.

Sadly, this is everywhere. This keeps me from getting a bunch of new shiny tech. Strength to those who can resist.🙏 Do not get your house and children bugged. Chose freedom tech.

It’s the “ecosystem” they say, aka the digital prison they built.
As time goes on we can see that manual wind-up watches may have been peak technology all along. You could get a Pine64 PineTime watch, and program it to do what want.
