Managing contacts

Admins can use the HUAWEI FamCare app to manage the contacts of the kids watch. Admins are classified into the main admin and normal admins. The first admin linked to the kids watch is the main admin and other admins linked to the kids watch are normal admins. Each kids watch can be linked to only one main admin and a maximum of nine normal admins.

 
  • Main admin's permissions: Use the HUAWEI FamCare app to invite new admins, adjust the order of normal admins, transfer the main admin's permissions, remove normal admins, add contacts, edit contacts, and delete contacts.
  • Normal admins' permissions: Use the HUAWEI FamCare app to add, edit, and delete contacts.

Inviting admins

The main admin can invite family members such as grandparents to be admins to interact with the child, such as giving rewards and answering emergency calls.

  1. (Main admin) Open the HUAWEI FamCare app, touch in the upper right corner of the home screen, go to Admin > New admin, enter a new admin's relationship with the child and phone number, and touch Invite in the upper right corner.
  2. (New admin) Follow the onscreen instructions in the SMS message when invited to download and install the HUAWEI FamCare app, register a HUAWEI ID using the entered phone number, log in to the HUAWEI FamCare app, touch I received an invitation, and follow the onscreen instructions to finish verification. The kids watch will be linked once the verification is successful.
  3. The new admin's name and phone number will be automatically saved to Contacts on the kids watch.
 
  • The main admin can touch Sort in the Admin list to adjust the order of normal admins and can touch and hold a normal admin and select Transfer permissions to transfer the main admin's permissions to the normal admin.
  • The main admin can select a normal admin from the Admin list to access the personal information screen and edit the relationship between the normal admin and child.

Adding contacts

Quick numbers corresponding to numbers of family members or group numbers need to be added to contact remarks. You need to add an area code before a fixed-line phone number and add a country/region code before a phone number of another country/region (for example, "+86" for China).
