Sayph Opiniones 

Getting a mobile phone for my son started as a stressful reality of 11+…

I wanted him to have a lifeline as he started walking alone, be able to chat securely with friends and take photos and videos of things if he wants to.

However I did not want him to have any access to social media or be on his phone 24/7 with 100s of WhatsApp messages pinging every 5 minutes!

Sayph solved the problem for me about 6 months ago for me and I am now locked and loaded whilst other parents navigate the challenge…

He has a phone which looks modern and ‘proper’, the ability to text / talk to friends 1:1 so feels connected, and can now listen to radio on the move. I know where he is at all times via its GPS and get an alert if he goes off course, plus have to approve all his contacts.

So as far as I am concerned, for an 11yr old and the way social media restrictions are going for under 16, it’s a win:win!

We got a Sayph Phone for our 11-year-old son, and it has been brilliant. It’s simple for him to use, while the parental controls and safety features give us real peace of mind.

The addition recently of the ‘routine feature’ has been a bit of a game changer. We can set the phone to ‘sleep’ for a period. Now there's no worry of him forgetting to turn his phone back on after school as it becomes usable again at the time we set to coincide with school getting out.

The phone offers just the right balance for a first phone: it gives our son more freedom while helping us stay on top of his online safety. Having the ability to veto his contacts is reassuring too so that we can trust who he is in contact with.

Overall, we couldn’t be happier with the Sayph Phone. It's a trustworthy first phone for our son I would gladly recommend it to any family looking for a safe and reassuring way to stay connected with their child beginning to want their independence

I couldn’t recommend a Sayph phone more. We live in an area with a middle school system that starts in Year 5, we found that many children already had smartphones, and even teachers seemed to expect pupils to have a mobile phone. That never sat comfortably with us.

Eventually, we gave in and bought a basic Nokia-style phone for calls and texts, but it soon got “lost” — probably because it wasn’t considered cool enough. We switched to a Sayph phone when our son was in Year 7.

When we discovered Sayph, it felt like the perfect solution. It looks like a modern smartphone, which our son was happy with, but it provides the safety and peace of mind we were looking for as parents.

We can see our son's location (and only we can), control who he can contact, and view his calls and messages when needed. He can’t send or receive images on this phone - although we can choose contacts that he can send or receive images to and from. There’s no internet access and no inappropriate apps to worry about.

For us, it’s taken one major concern off the worry list and given our son the independence he wanted in a safe, controlled way.
