Pricing: No standalone device price is listed; the Samsung phone is financed at about $7/mo over 36 months. Plans run from about $25/mo up to about $35/mo (the top plan is what unlocks browser and app options). Prices change often, so confirm the current price at the retailer. Checked September 2026.
Pros & cons
Pros
- Safe-list contacts and per-app approval by parents
- Growth-based controls (KidSmart OS) that expand as your child matures
- Text monitoring, content filtering, and GPS location
Cons
- Carrier-locked to a standalone Troomi plan (no bring-your-own-carrier)
- The top plan can enable a browser or even full Chrome, so safety depends on the plan and settings you pick
Setup & lockdown guide
Troomi's safety level depends on the plan and settings you choose. Apps are parent-approved from a curated library, and everything is managed from a web Parent Portal. Important: on the top 'Discover' plan a parent can turn on a safe browser or even full Google Chrome, so it is not a locked, no-browser device unless you keep the browser off.
How to talk to your child
Tell your child: 'This is a real phone that grows with you. We'll unlock more as you show you're ready for it.'
