Fitbit Ace

Fitbit Ace for family communication and safety

Fitbit Ace is the companion app for the Fitbit Ace LTE kids smartwatch. It gives parents and other approved adults a central place to stay in touch with a child, review selected activity information, and manage who can communicate with the watch.

Calls, messages, contacts, and location

The app supports secure calls and text messages between approved contacts and the child’s Fitbit Ace LTE smartwatch. You can manage the watch’s contact list, check the child’s location, and view activity levels from the app. Invited contacts can also use Fitbit Ace to call or message the child, subject to the permissions set for the watch.

This makes the app most suitable for families using Fitbit Ace LTE as a child-focused communication device rather than as a general fitness tracker. The available controls are centred on supervised contact, location awareness, and basic activity visibility.

What to know before using it

Fitbit Ace is designed to work with the Fitbit Ace LTE watch, and the watch requires a paid Ace Pass data plan. Some functions are available only when the child uses a supervised Google Account, so access can depend on the account setup as well as the connected device.

Privacy settings and account permissions matter here because the app handles a child’s communications, contacts, location, and activity information. Review those controls before giving additional people access.
