Posted on TikTok by WaterWatch and by creators; the views are their own. WaterWatch is a final layer of protection, not a replacement for supervision.

Shipping and details
Cancel any time before it ships for a full refund.
- Ships: We'll email you the moment a date is set. Nothing ships until then.
- One hub covers up to four bands. Add bands now or later. They pair to the same hub.
How it works
Your child wears the band
Light, fully waterproof, with a strap designed to resist small hands.
Water triggers it
The moment the band hits water it signals the hub directly over radio, no Wi-Fi involved.
You hear it and you see it
The hub's siren sounds and your phone lights up, anywhere in the house.
Two kinds of alert
Water is not the only thing worth knowing about.
The band goes in
The moment the band hits water, the hub sounds a continuous siren and your phone lights up.
The band goes too far
If a band moves out of range of the hub, you get a different sound and a different notification.
What you get
- The band. Rechargeable, fully waterproof, and light enough to forget about.
- The hub. Sits by the water with a built-in siren, and listens for the band directly.
- Power adapter and setup guide. Running in a few minutes.
- The app. Free on iPhone and Android.
The questions people actually ask
When will my order ship?
We're targeting this winter. WaterWatch 1.0 is still in hardware validation, so I'll confirm an exact date once I'm confident in it.
You'll get build updates along the way, and you can cancel any time before your unit ships for a full refund.
Is this a pre-order? When do I pay?
Yes. Full payment is charged at checkout to reserve your place in the first production run, in order. You are not charged a second time.
We're targeting this winter, and you can cancel any time before your unit ships to get the full amount back.
Can a toddler take the band off by themselves?
It's designed to resist that. The band uses a dual nub and strap system made to be difficult for a young child to open on their own, and we're continuing to refine it.
No strap is impossible for a determined child to remove, which is one more reason WaterWatch sits alongside supervision rather than in place of it.
Does it need Wi-Fi to work?
The band and hub talk to each other directly, so the alarm still sounds even if your internet goes down. Wi-Fi is only used to send the alert to your phone.
Does WaterWatch replace supervision, pool fences, or swim lessons?
No, and I'd ask you not to buy it if you're looking for a replacement. WaterWatch is a final layer of protection, the one that catches the seconds in between when an adult looks away, steps inside, or turns to grab something. It works alongside the other layers, not instead of them.
Will it go off when it should not?
Sometimes, and that is deliberate. The band cannot tell a bath or a sprinkler from a pool, so ordinary indoor water will set it off. A band that ignored some water would have to decide which water counts, and that is not a decision a safety device should be making. Check your child first, always, then hold the button on the hub for three seconds to silence it.
How long does the battery last?
The band takes about an hour to charge and lasts around two days of normal use. The hub is mains powered and has its own battery, so it keeps running through a power cut or somewhere off grid.
