Safety zones

Safety Zones let you define specific areas where your child usually spends time—like home, school, or a friend’s house. When the watch enters or exits one of these zones, you’ll get a notification. It’s a great way to stay informed and support safe, independent exploration!

How to add a safety zone Open the Xplora app and go to Maps. Tap the Safety Zone tab. Select Add a new safety zone. Pick the location: either tap directly on the map or search for an address using the search bar. Choose the radius of the zone (minimum 300m). Tap Next. Give the zone a name and choose a colour to help identify it easily. Tap Save. You can repeat these steps to add more zones, like school, grandparents’ house, or after-school activities. How to edit or remove a safety zone Go to the Safety Zone tab in Maps. Tap on the zone you want to change or delete. Adjust the location, size, or name. To delete it completely, tap Delete.

Why can’t I set a smaller zone?

Xplora devices use a combination of GPS, WiFi, and mobile network data to locate your child. Because the accuracy can vary — especially in built-up areas or inside buildings — smaller zones could result in false alerts. To avoid this, the smallest allowed size for a safety zone is 300 metres.

⚠️ Alerts depend on connectivity

Safety zone alerts depend on the device being connected and transmitting location data. Notifications are not always instant but are sent as soon as the system confirms the device’s location change.
