Abstract
A mobile device, such as a smart phone, generates instructions for a user device, such as a wearable device for a child. The mobile device initiates a local network associated with an attribute, and the user device may access the local network using the attribute when the user device is within a threshold distance of the mobile device. The mobile device generates program data identifying the instructions and the local network attribute, and mobile device forwards the programming data to the user device via another network. For example, the mobile device may generate a short messaging service (SMS) message that includes the programming data. The user device executes the instructions when the user device is able to communicate with the mobile device via the local network.
