Wiley Buddy WiFi Home Phone

Our mission be the best WiFi home phone for kids on the market, so childhood doesn't happen through a screen.

Main Differences Wiley was designed for kids of all ages - young and old. Wiley is flexible to cater to you & your kids' needs.

How we stack up:

• Tin Can locks you into approved-contacts-only with no off switch. Wiley gives you that same mode and lets you toggle it off, so the phone grows with your kid instead of boxing them in.
• Ooma doesn't offer a WiFi-based phone.
• Everyone Else: WiFi calling has been around for 20+ years, but almost nobody designed it with kids in mind. We did.

Built for the whole family. Wiley works for kids as early as 3 or 4 years old...as long as they can press a speed dial button to call grandma.

Younger kids learn phone literacy, tweens earn independence, & teens that still need a way to call & ask somebody out on a date.

Adults get freedom to still stay connected to the world but have an option to stay connected without the doomscrolling.

Nope!

Wiley Home Phone service comes with:

Enhanced 911 
Assign a physical address to your phone number so if 911 is dialed, first responders automatically know where to go — even if your child can’t say the address.

Instant Emergency Alerts
You and a neighbor can even instantly get an alert when 911 is dialed from Wiley so if you aren’t home you’ll know something serious is happening & can take action.

If WiFi or power go out you will lose the ability to call with Wiley.

That is a really valid concern that we and many parents have. Our mission is to safely connect kids & families & have set out to make that a reality. 

We researched this concern early on & found in our research that on average a home in the United States has 99.9% connectivity to power & internet. (On average homes experience  outages of power 7 hours/year & WiFi 9 hours/year.)

Every area is different so your experience may be more or less than that but the thing we also want to stress is that with outages there are options. Just like everything in life it really depends on your specific needs & preparedness level.

For instance some people have put together backup options for power like generators or backup connectivity like a secondary connection point like Startlink (satellite) or WiFi home hotspot like Verizon Fios (cellular). Hopefully there are other communications in the home.

At the end of the day we want to give parents options. We want to give families a simple & fun way to connect with each other without having the pressure of getting kids a smartphone too early.
