Can anyone recommend a subscription with which the watch works safely and which costs no more than about 5 francs a month? What kind of subscriptions do you have (provider, subscription name)?

Question

Answer

I operate 2 watches with one M-Budget Mobile Prepaid Easy S each and it works without any problems. GPS tracking hardly uses any data, so the Prepaid Easy S for CHF 4.00/month is not exhausted. For sporadic trips abroad, I use the Data Travel 100MB - Europe option.
The Xplora X4 cannot send SMS, so the number of free SMS in the subscription is irrelevant. Receiving SMS is possible with the Xplora. I recommend adding the service number of the provider to the mandatory contact list of the parent app to the Xplora so that the watch can receive service SMS from the provider.
The data consumption for GPS tracking is so low because real-time tracking is not possible. By this I mean that the location display does not change so dynamically that I would be able to tell from the speed whether the watch wearer is, for example, sitting on a train or walking next to the track. The watches regularly send location updates, but these can be a few minutes old.
Sending pictures and voice messages from the watch to approved contacts is also not significant due to the low resolution of the data and is also only possible to contacts who have the Xplora app installed on their mobile phone and use the chat function of this app.
