Child’s first phone and sim
Hi all,
Im looking at getting my daughter her first phone, can anyone advise if smarty offer a child friendly sim.
I would like to have access on controlling her data usage and app restriction, if possible.
Any advice welcome!

PaulMur_2868339 If you start off her sim as a 'nickname' sim under your account, you will have access to and control of her account.
Here is the relevant Smarty article:

As for restricting apps etc, that may be more of a problem if she has her own online account - unless you link the phone to an account that you control.
