A home phone for kids who aren’t ready for a phone.
sits in the kitchen like the family phone used to. Kids call their grandparents and the friends you’ve approved by tapping a face. No apps, no feeds, nothing to scroll.
In a small family pilot now.
Calling, the way it used to feel
The first step is just the phone: calls with the people you choose, and nothing else.
Faces, not phone numbers
Everyone they can call is a card with a picture. Kids who can’t read yet call Grandma by tapping hers.
It really rings
Each caller picks a card and a ringtone, so kids know who it is before they pick up. They answer with the receiver or a tap.
Draw while you talk
Open a shared page during a call and doodle together. It disappears when you hang up.
It grows up with them
Four stages, each replaying how kids kept in touch from the 1980s to the 2000s, all on the same home phone and screen. Each adds one thing, keeps a deliberate limit, and starts when you decide they’re ready. There’s nothing to install on a phone of their own.
Built for parents to trust
You say OK to every contact
Kids can invite friends, but nobody can call until a parent approves.
No ads, feeds, or trackers
Nothing to scroll, and nothing on the pages that watches your family.
No photos of kids
Kids pick a sticker for their card. Only grown-ups can add a photo.
Nothing is kept
Calls are never recorded, and drawings vanish at hang-up.
First names only
No last names, birthdays, or locations, ever.
It can’t call 911
Keep a real phone in the house for emergencies.
