Gizmo is a analysis devise used by Andy during his around the world adventures and time travel adventures. Andy carries it on a black wriststrap on his left arm but the Gizmo is removable.
Properties
General
The Gizmo is used for analysing creatures and the time period/location that Andy is in. He can use it to take pictures and video/sound recordings and to supply power to other devices.
Size-altering
Using the Gizmo, Andy is also able to shrink in size for hiding or finding creatures and then return back to normal size. The smallest size Andy has been seen to change to is small enough to ride on a Dragonfly, but generally he goes to the size of a cat. (APA: Epidexipteryx and Tail Feather, Leptictidium and Fig) He once used the Gizmo to increase the size of a ball of wool.

Jen once momentarily shrunk herself and got a raisin stuck in the Gizmo causing it to be faulty. Later, Andy was accidentally shrunken down to insect size and could not return to his normal size until he fixed the Gizmo by removing the raisin. (APA: Sabre-Toothed Cat and Roar)
