Can you view a child's texts with the Kids SyncUp watch?

Where is the History screen in the app?

Why though?  If it not enough that you've personally approved every person your could talk to through that watch? If not, why get her a phone at all?

My daughter has her mom on her watch but we aren't together. A bad relationship shouldn't be directed to my daughter but I'm not blocking her ability to talk to her mom. Being able to mitigate the conversation is more productive. Some things are not in the best interest of the child. Some adults understand and some are hateful and care about themselves. Being able to see there messages without having to ask is a sign of trust. Going thru messages is a sign of distrust. Children don't understand the difference, if you don't then you shouldn't give your child freedoms to talk to other people, ever.

I know someone who can help you with that but won’t that be invading your child’s privacy?

As a parent wanting to also teach proper communication using text, the inability to see the messages is counterproductive. I shouldn't need to take my child's watch and read her texts. I should be able to monitor via the app. There is no guarantee that kids won't make mistakes while using the Syncup watch and we won't know unless the child says something or we take their watch. 

I hope Tmobile reads these discussions groups and takes our feedback into consideration.

Imagine that the other way around where a child is confiding in someone about abuse at home or something else.  Children are people too!  Everyone has some right to privacy.

I contacted Syncup support to try to get a log of messages and they refused, due to being able to view messages on the watch itself.

 

Just lazy 

It isn't laziness.  T-Mobile can only provide a person or devices text messages to law enforcement with a warrant.

There isn't a way to see the content of the text messages without looking in the watch.
