FAQ
Questions parents usually ask.
Honest, detailed answers about how Mini Guard works, what it costs, and how we protect your child's data.
Purchase & availability
Mini Guard is currently in development. Target launch pricing is €59.90 (189 zł) for the wristband and €5.99/month (19,99 zł/mies.) for the connectivity plan — all prices include VAT.

Mini Guard is being built on the official Apple Find My specification and will appear in the Find My app alongside your AirTags. Final Apple Find My support is planned and will be confirmed after certification.
Only the parents and guardians you approve. Location data stays scoped to your family account — Mini Guard staff cannot read your child's location as part of normal operations.
The design target is up to 5 days of typical use on a single charge, recharged with the magnetic pogo-pin dock. Actual battery life will be confirmed after engineering and field testing.
Mini Guard ships with a built-in eSIM — no SIM card, no PIN, no setup. Roaming across 100+ countries (EU, UK, US, Canada, Turkey, UAE and most popular family destinations) is planned at launch, at no extra cost to the connectivity plan.
Connectivity & eSIM
No. Mini Guard ships with a built-in eSIM that connects automatically in 100+ countries — no SIM card, no PIN, no setup. The data plan is included in your monthly subscription.
If cellular drops, the wristband can still be located through the Apple Find My network using nearby Apple devices (planned). The last known location keeps updating in the background.
Apple Find My
No. Find My access is included with any Apple ID at no extra cost.
The Mini Guard app is planned for both Android 11+ and iOS. Apple Find My adds an optional layer for families with at least one Apple device.
Child safety
Mini Guard is designed mainly for children aged 4–10. The strap fits wrists 125–175 mm in circumference.
Two-way calling is planned for a future release, subject to hardware feasibility testing.
All approved guardians receive a priority push with the latest available location. Timing depends on network conditions. If no one responds within 60 seconds, the wristband starts calling them in order.
Water-resistant design with IP67 as the target — safe against rain, hand washing and pool splashes. Not for swimming or diving. Final IP rating will be confirmed after testing.
Yes. A skin sensor detects when the wristband is no longer worn and Mini Guard notifies your approved guardians with the last known location within seconds. It's a calm heads-up, not an alarm — the band is designed to be removable, we just tell you when it comes off.
Yes. Once you save school as a safe zone, Mini Guard sends automatic notifications when your child arrives and when they leave. You choose whether to be notified on arrival, on departure, or both, and the alerts go to every approved guardian on the account. Real timing depends on network conditions.
Privacy & GDPR
On EU servers (Frankfurt and Warsaw planned), with TLS 1.3 in transit and strong encryption at rest. Mini Guard is designed to align with GDPR.
Yes. You can export and delete all account and location data at any time from the app or by emailing privacy@miniguardfamily.com.
Orders, returns & warranty
The wristband, a magnetic pogo-pin charger and a quick-start guide. The eSIM is pre-provisioned.
A 30-day money-back guarantee is planned at launch. Your statutory 14-day EU right of withdrawal always applies as well.
By law, we are liable for non-conformity of the goods with the contract for 2 years from delivery (EU Directive 2019/771). Mini Guard also plans a voluntary 24-month manufacturer's guarantee against manufacturing defects — this does not limit your statutory rights.
