Verizon today announced the launch of the Gizmo Watch 4, the latest addition to its Verizon Family ecosystem, designed to provide parents with enhanced peace of mind through next-level safety features. The smartwatch introduces Watch Removal Detection alerts, real-time location insights, and upcoming severe weather notifications, aiming to keep families connected and protected without exposing children to social media or unfiltered web browsing.
The Gizmo Watch 4 includes key safety features such as custom safe zones, a distraction-free school mode, and the ability to add up to 40 trusted contacts. Its durability is enhanced with a water-resistant design, a 1.6-inch scratch-resistant glass screen, and a battery that lasts up to three days. The watch supports high-quality video calling on Verizon's network and integrates seamlessly with the Verizon Family app for centralized management of safety and wellness features.
Verizon is also offering a special promotion from July 9 through September 3, 2026, allowing new and existing customers to get a free Gizmo Watch 4 when purchasing the device on a 36-month payment plan with a new watch line. The value is given as $180 promotional credits applied over 36 months. Additionally, by enrolling in the Verizon loyalty program, standard activation and device upgrade fees are waived.
The Gizmo Watch 4 is available in Dusk Blue and Pistachio Pin colors at verizon.com or through the My Verizon App. For more information on keeping kids safe online, visit Parenting in a Digital World.
