If your Pixbee won’t power up, the first thing we recommend is to plug in the Pixbee to the charger it came with and ensuring it is fully charged or at least is charging while you carry out some troubleshooting.
While Pixbee is connected to this power source, ‘long press’ or ‘hold down’ the power button for 20 seconds.
If your Pixbee still does not turn on, try rebooting your Pixbee smartwatch from the Pixbee App. Just press SETTINGS and then option REBOOT in the App.
If this doesn’t work, please call our customer service team or email us at info@pixbee.com.au

How You Can Help:
Thank you for your patience and understanding as we work to restore full connectivity!
The Pixbee is a brilliant watch and needs a reliable network and Nano-SIM card to support it.
The Pixbee Video Smart Watch requires a Nano-SIM card. It is best supported by a Vodafone, Telstra, or Optus Nano-SIM (either pre-paid or post-paid) with a minimum 2GB capacity to facilitate the Pixbee’s super-cool functions like voice and video calls, SMS, and image sharing.
If you fall into this category, we recommend you physically go into a Telstra, Optus, or Vodaphone store (or contact your specific service provider) directly with your Pixbee and ask them to supply, format, and insert a nano-SIM for you.
Yes, but check with your provider to ensure the other specs of the Nano-SIM card support the needs of the Pixbee. It’s specs should be on the back of the Nano-SIM packet.
We suggest you update your Pixbee watch Firmware when you first set up your Pixbee and continue to check if updates are required.
To update the firmware on the Pixbee Video Smart Watch, please follow the below steps:

A geofence zone is a virtual boundary set by you around a designated area on your map. Say your watch-wearer is going to the park with their friends. Maybe you’re a little apprehensive. Bring up the map on the Pixbee App, find the park’s location, set a red boundary around its outside perimeter, and rest assured you will get a notification from Pixbee if your child leaves this zone.
Good question, but one best answered in our manual, so follow this link.
You will receive a notification directly to your smartphone. However, something as simple as an outdated app or a smartphone low on battery (or is about to die) is enough to throw the best-laid plans to a fault.
To make sure you can always receive notifications when your child enters or leaves a safe zone, make sure your smartphone is on, fully charged, the App is running, and your phone is off silent.
You can make SOS requests (calls) to the numbers listed in your emergency contacts in an emergency. To do this, hold down the power button on the right of the watch. The SOS request will trigger a call to the contacts on the emergency list.
You can do this through the Pixbee App. The SOS calls are sequenced.
If your child or watch wearer makes an SOS call, the first contact on the list will be called three times. If that contact does not answer, Pixbee will call the second person on the SOS list. The SOS call will continue to be placed three times with each contact and make its way down the list until someone answers. We advise you to educate your watch wearer about how to use this feature responsibly.
You can’t disable the siren. Please check out our Dear Pixbee page where we discuss this function, including how to best educate your small person on its appropriate use.
The Pixbee has a built-in pedometer, so kids can have fun measuring their daily steps.
Stars are given when the Pixbee Smart Watch hits 5000, 10,000, and 15,000 steps.

Your child can receive incoming SMS messages from approved contacts. Your child or watch-wearer can then call the message sender back or send back an emoji.
Parents and guardians can send texts to their watch wearer, who can only reply and acknowledge in emojis- like a thumbs up. This is so your watch wearer can get the information they need but isn’t compelled to spend all day texting. “Hey Mick, I am going to be 5 minutes late can you wait at the gate?”

The Pixbee smartwatch can only make video calls to approved contacts, who also have the Pixbee App on their smartphone and have the App paired to the Pixbee watch they are trying to call. This allows you to safely make video calls, thanks to the security offered by the software in the Pixbee smartwatch and Pixbee App.
In order to make a video call, the caller will need to be added to Pixbee as an Approved Contact via the App. To add a new, approved contact and enable them to make receive video calls to Pixbee, they will need to download the Pixbee App, register a new account and pair the Pixbee to the App. During the pairing process, Pixbee will ask the main Pixbee App account holder for permission to allow this person to be an approved connection with your Pixbee. The administrator Pixbee App account holder can remove this new person as an approved contact, anytime.
Once your approved contact downloads the Pixbee App, pairs with the Pixbee watch and is granted access, they will have full access to your Pixbee’s App features, so they will be able to see the watch wearers’ location, change settings and more. In light of this, we recommend only granting this access to people that you trust implicitly.
Please note, if you are not able to physically get to the Pixbee watch you are trying to the App with, we suggest you ask the Pixbee watch owner to take a photo of the QR pairing code on the Pixbee watch and send it to you or someone else you trust so that you can then pair the Pixbee App to the watch remotely.
We have several suggestions to help get you back on track. Please be aware, video calls can only be made between the Pixbee App and the Pixbee smartphone.
Things to check:
Please note, on rare occasions using your Pixbee watch or the Pixbee App in an area that is heavily built up, remote, or with little reception, this has been known to momentarily impact the clarity of video calls. We suggest you contact your network provider to confirm there is a coverage issue in your area.
If you have run through these steps and are still having trouble, please email our help desk at info@pixbee.com.au and we’ll be happy to assist you further.
