Octopus is the first icon-based watch that teaches kids good habits and the concept of time. First off, it’s a watch. It gives the time with icons, making it the first clock that young kids can actually read and understand. It helps children conceptually link time to events. It’s also a scheduler for children, which helps foster responsibility, independence and self-esteem. Parents can program visual reminders from their smartphone that pop up on the kid’s watch (icon+vibration). Finally, Octopus is an assistant that helps you, parents, prioritize expectations and stay consistent with daily routines. It provides tips and personal notes. It also reminds you to remind your kids!

If I order a watch now, how long will it take for me to get it in Montreal, Canada
Does it track activity as well?
Will I still get a notification that the task was completed if I’m not on the same WiFi or Bluetooth? Say I’m at work and my child is at home, will the notification still come to my phone?
They have not shipped to their backers. I have started sending out emails Ellen, 60 mins, Target etc. About how they forgot about their backers and disappointed thousand of children in the process. Target did respond and they will be addressing this with their management team. I encourage ALL US
You may wonder, why we delivered Target before you?
Last October, we signed the contract with Target (for only blue and red watches). We were meant to be on their shelves on July 26, so 3 or 4 months after the shipping to our backers. But this was on the paper. We had a lot of issues in our journey. If we didn't deliver Target on time (once we experienced a part of our journey, we negotiated to deliver to them a smallest amount of items to keep more for you, our backers) we would have huge fines that would killed JOY... And we wouldn't be able to produce watches in the future.
Thanks and again for your support all along our journey and we apologize for the inconvenience, @Lizelle @beth @Joe @Connie: I have sent to you a private message @Dan: Thanks a lot for your message. All the OctoTeam understand your frustration as you can understand the business decisions that we had to do. We apologize for this situation and we are shipping as quickly as possible the last orders that we are still holding. @Sarah @Lee @Dries @Belladj: Yes, I can still update your color choice for you. I have sent to you a private message.
I signed up for a blue and a green, and as backer #440, I'm still waiting for my shipping notice. If there is going to a be further delays for certain colors I would prefer a refund and I'll just get it from Target if my kids still want these.
We stood by you but now others can get to buy at Target while I have received no information about mine from you.
Can you please check and update on my order.
Thanks!

You should at least provide a free companion to all the backers or a coupon for a free watch at retail stores I ordered two watches my daughter's birthday passed the 3 of July and I backed the project on June last year.
I did receive an email about shipping last week
