You stay connected. They stay screen-free.
The walk home. A bike ride with friends. A little more independence.
Sidekick gives children aged 8 to 12 a simple way to call home, without the distractions of a smartphone.
For 21 days, 15 Australian families will be the first to experience Sidekick in everyday family life.
Say yes to more freedom.
Sidekick clips to their bag, ready when they need to call you, ask for a lift or let you know they have arrived.
No apps. No games. No social media. Just connection when it matters. See how Sidekick works.
“My tween girls fly to Perth to see their dad, and I used to worry the whole time. With Sidekick, they can call me whenever they need to, I can call them too, and I know where they are without giving them a smartphone. The app also lets me see that their Sidekicks are charged, which gives me real peace of mind.”
Founding families receive
