The Garmin Vivofit Jr 3 is designed for kids, offering features like step tracking, chore management, and rewards that encourage active lifestyles. Many guests appreciate its ease of use and the fun it brings to daily activities. However, the watch's dim display has been a common concern, making it difficult for children to read the time in low light. Overall, it serves as a great motivational tool for kids, but improvements in visibility would enhance the experience.

Too dim to see
It is too dark to see. Can't read the clock or time, see the activities or view it at all. Brightness cannot be adjusted. Unusable.

Sent it back
I think Garmin could have done better,especially for the price. The watch screen is so small and so dark. You can barely see the screen. So disappointed that I sent it back.

Just what I wanted.
I have had this for about a month. Wanted a device for time, and steps walked that didn’t need charging every couple of days. Only wish is that it would show distance walked.

Dim screen, minimal functionality
Pretty lackluster features for the price. Would be great if: 1) The screen was better lit. It's almost impossible to see at certain times of day or in certain light conditions. 2) There were more features - why can't the kids see the list of chores and their status on the watch? Or their sleep data? Instead, this all lives in the app which I don't give my child free rein with. Why can't the watch also show heart rate? There just aren't enough bells & whistles to make it worth the price.

Great Fitness Tracker for kids
We struggled to find a watch that wasn't big and bulky for my 6 year old. This is the perfect size, bonus that it tracks steps and activity. Garmin customer service is fantastic, hands down best customer service I've ever dealt with!!

A hit with our daughter
We bought the vivofit jr. 3 for our 11-year-old daughter as a way to encourage her to be more active, and just prior to a family vacation. She really likes the watch and has been wearing it 24/7. My wife and I track activity (steps, etc.) too, so we have fun comparing numbers. The pairing with my smartphone has worked well. Overall we're happy with the watch, with the one downside being the display which, while readable by my daughter, seems quite dark.

Screen is horrible
Overall its a good watch but the screen is really really bad, you can't see anything until you press the backlit button. Other than that, its a good watch and tracks decent metrics for the kids to keep them active etc.

Disappointingly poor quality
I read the reviews about the dim screen and poor quality but decided to take a chance and see for myself. Well, the reviews were right! It was very difficult to view the time and other features on the watch if your hand is not at the right angle. Otherwise you would constantly have to click the button to make the watch light come on, that was a pain. The screen also wasn't very secure. I returned before giving to my son for Christmas and went with another brand. I would have kept the watch if it weren't for the 2 issues. Everything else about it was great.

Terrible screen!
Gift for my daughter. She was excited to track her steps and chores but the screen is SO DARK!! We are returning it. Their marketing images show bright/normal display but unless you are outside on a sunny day or inside with a bright overhead light, you will little to no visibility on the screen. We are disappointed and are returning it.

Great fitness tracker for kids
I bought this as a gift for my 9 year old for Christmas. She had been asking for a fitness tracker watch. She loves that she can keep track of the steps, use a stopwatch and see when she meets certain goals. I like that we don't have to charge the watch (battery life it's it should last about a year!). I also like that I can give her tasks/chores and then mark them off in the app. The sleep tracker is fairly accurate too! The negative so far is only that I can't download the app onto her Firetablet so the app is only on my phone (she does not have a phone). This is a minor problem for us, however. I'll definitely be purchasing one for my other kiddos when they ask for one!

Solid Activity Tracker
Bought this for my son for Christmas, he loves showing me that he met his goals. I like the exploration game that he can earn new levels by meeting his goals as it also helps him do some fun reading.

Great Watch!!!!
We bought this for our daughter (11 years old) for Christmas, and she loves it. I (Dad) also have a Garmin watch, and now we compete to see who can get the most steps in a day. We walk together, helping her get her steps in during the day. It is a great introduction watch/activity tracker. She enjoys the different challenges in the app as well.

Faulty Battery which has leaked battery acid
Bought one in September as a Christmas present for my daughter. Put away and opened on Christmas Day. Started off great and Miss 8 was having great fun trying to beat her dad’s step count until day 5. On waking up the screen was frozen. A few attempts at pressing the button did nothing. After a while the watch face changed to the calendar icon. A press of the button brought up the connect icon and code. Figuring the battery had somehow died already I opened the device up to find the battery had leaked acid all through the device, causing visible damage to the internal surfaces of the device. Removed the battery and cleaned the acid out. Replaced battery but device is now just repeating the same as at the start of day 5. Will be returning as soon as we return from holiday. Garmin really need to reconsider the replaceable battery for this device. Would hope this is an isolated incident though.
