They need to reach you
1Your child takes a tumble, gets turned around on a field trip, or a helper just wants to reach a parent.
New: the Smart Band
The tag that video-calls you when someone scans it.
Wear it on the wrist or clip it on the backpack. A teacher, coach, or kind stranger points their camera at it and your phone rings with a live video call. No app for them. Your number stays private. The Smart Band adds a pocket for an Apple AirTag, so you get the map too.

New · The Smart Band
Visible. Trackable. Connected.
An AirTag tells you where they are. It cannot let the person standing next to them reach you. The Smart Band carries both: the AirTag underneath for the map, the PhoneTag on top so one scan starts a live video call to you, with no app and no number shared.
- Soft silicone, worn on the wrist, so it goes where the kid goes
- Fits an Apple AirTag, sold separately
- Works from a school iPad or any phone camera
- $19 each, one-time, on any plan
Loved by PhoneTag families
Parents put it on for peace of mind.
Today we received the product you brilliantly created and we love it! Thank you so much!
Deb Thivierge, BCaBA, NYS-CBAA · The ELIJA School CEO/Founder
Love this. Perfect for my college student studying abroad!
A great product with a great price. You can never be too cautious!
Brilliant tool for keeping those closest to you safe and always within reach of assistance.
Permission slip mix-up on day three meant my daughter missed her friend’s bus and her own. The attendant scanned her PhoneTag, I answered right away, my sister picked her up fifteen minutes later. One scan, problem solved. Thank you!
PhoneTag started at our kitchen table. As a mom, I wanted my kids' school, their coaches, and any kind stranger to be able to reach us in seconds, without our phone number ever leaving the family. Every order is packed and shipped by us, and if PhoneTag isn't right for your family, send it back within 30 days for a full refund, no questions asked.

How it works
They scan the QR code. Your phone rings.
A grown-up scans the tag
2A teacher, bus driver, or kind stranger points their camera at the tag, there's no app for them to install.
Your phone rings and lights up
3A real incoming call comes into your phone, even when it's locked. You can setup a whole family group to ring.
See the location before answering
4Talk by video, voice, or text, and you have an AI assistant that can answer for you when you can't.
Phone-banned school?
Works from devices that can't dial.
School iPads and Chromebooks. A Wi-Fi-only hand-me-down phone. A tablet at a friend's house. None of them can place a phone call. All of them can open a camera and a browser, and that is all PhoneTag needs. In a phone-banned school, these are the devices your kid actually has, and any one of them is a line home.
- School iPadScan the tag, call rings you
- ChromebookCamera and browser, nothing to install
- Wi-Fi-only phoneNo plan, no number, still calls you
- Tablet at a friend'sAny device with a camera works
Two ways to wear it
Protect what matters most.
The band stays on the kid. The tag clips to the bag. Both are a private line to you, and both run on the same plan.
The Smart Band
Visible. Trackable. Connected. A soft silicone band with a PhoneTag on top and a pocket for an Apple AirTag underneath. Worn, so it stays on the kid, not the bag.

PhoneTag + AirTag
AirTag tracks your things. PhoneTag connects you.
One finds what’s lost. The other lets whoever finds it reach you in seconds. Not rivals, a team.

- Precision finding when you are close by
- Works quietly in the background, no scan needed
- Rides Apple’s Find My network worldwide
- Ideal for keys, bags, and luggage you own

PhoneTag
Calls you directly
- One scan reaches you in a live video call
- No app for the person who scans, works on any smart phone

Best together. Put both on the backpack. If it goes missing, AirTag
helps you find it. If a person needs to reach you, PhoneTag puts them on a call with
you. Both directions covered, for the ultimate peace of mind.

What can I put a PhoneTag on?
Anything you don't want to lose touch with: a kid's backpack or jacket, a pet's collar, luggage, sports gear, a golf bag, or a loved one's bag. It's a lightweight, water-resistant connection tag, and you can mix and match as many as you like on one account.
How does pricing and renewal work?
The Family Plan is $59 for 12 months, $39 for 6 months, or $9 a month, with 2 smart tags included. Video calling and the AI assistant (20 AI minutes a month) are included with your plan. Extra tags are $9 each, one-time, up to 12 tags and 10 family members on one account. Real-time messaging and notifications are free forever, even if you cancel, and every order has a 30-day money-back guarantee. Billed securely through Stripe.
Is it safe to put a tag on my child?
Yes, that's exactly what it's designed for. The tag shows no name, number, or address. If someone scans it, they're connected to you instantly, in a live video call with private messaging and photo sharing; they never see your contact details; you decide what, if anything, to share. You can also see when and where the tag was scanned, and the whole family can be set to ring. Read exactly how we protect your family on our Safety page, and why we say never put your child's name on their backpack.
What if someone misuses the tag or keeps scanning it?
Every scan is logged with its time, location, and device, and shown in your PhoneTag app, including scans that never rang your phone or were answered by your AI assistant. Repeat scans are throttled automatically, one tap blocks a scanner for good (they just see "no one is available"), and one tap can report them to our safety team. You can also pause any tag instantly. Full details are on the Safety page.
Does someone need an app to reach me?
No. They just point their phone's built-in camera at the tag and tap the link, the call opens in their browser. The app is only for you.
Does it work from a school iPad, Chromebook, or a phone with no service?
Yes. Any device with a camera and a browser can scan the tag and start the call, on Wi-Fi or cellular, with no phone number and no app. That covers school iPads and Chromebooks, a Wi-Fi-only hand-me-down phone, and a tablet at a friend's house. In a phone-banned school your child can reach you from the classroom device by scanning their own tag.
How does the AI assistant work?
It's included with every account. A voice assistant that's trained on your own instructions can greet whoever scans the tag and answer questions based on your instructions, take a message, or ring you and connect the call live. Your account includes 20 AI minutes a month; add 60 more for $8.00 a month, stackable, cancel anytime.
What is the PhoneTag Doorbell?
A mounted stainless tag for your door or entry, included in your plan like every other tag. Visitors scan it to reach you by live video, voice, or text wherever you are, and the AI receptionist can answer when you can't. No wiring, no batteries, no camera hardware.
Does it really keep my phone number private?
Yes. Calls run over an encrypted peer-to-peer connection. Whoever scans the tag never sees your phone number, email, or address, only the call itself.
