Security features

Location/Safe Zones 🏠

The Gabb Phone 4 is equipped with real-time GPS location tracking & customizable Safe Zones. A Safe Zone is a pre-defined area that you set up, allowing you to get a notification from the MyGabb app when your child enters or leaves that area.

Safe texting on Gabb Messenger 📨

Gabb Messenger for parents monitors the Gabb Messenger for kids app that comes pre-installed on your child's Gabb phone. The Gabb Messenger for parents app flag or block messages that may be harmful to your child. You'll get a notification on your smartphone from the Gabb Messenger app when this happens.

Download Gabb Messenger for parents from the Apple App Store or Google Play Store.

App-to-app Safe Video Calling 🤳

Gabb Messenger allows your child to make app-to-app safe video calls to other Gabb Messenger users. Parents can make video calls to their child using the Gabb Messenger for parents app. Parent-approved friends and relatives can also use the app after your child sends a link to an approved contact.

Gabb App Management 📱

The Gabb Phone 4 Pro has access to Gabb App Management. We have hundreds of apps available for download, & we approve more weekly.

Clean music streaming with Gabb Music 🎶

Gabb Music doesn't bleep out lyrics—instead, we use our industry-leading tools and proprietary technology to filter out explicit and suggestive songs.
