GPS tracking devices

My husband likes to walk so I need a tracking device, I’m currently using FindMy in his Iphone. Any other suggestions? Thanks.

    TILE gps trackers go on wallet, keys, phone. They track the items and person. Others are using Apple AirTags. Your local police or sheriff’s department has a program called project lifesaver. They supply gps tracking watches that will track your loved one anywhere in the U. S. They will get information including a picture to place in a central database for tracking. Their scent is also taken for tracking dogs if necessary.

    I would add a tile or apple airtag to his coat pocket, shoes, wallet, anything he might take with for an extra layer of security. That way if he leaves his phone behind he may have something with a different tracker. They also make discreet ones for the insoles of shoes if he will be resistant to seeing a tracker on him and therefore resist bringing it. Keep in mind this is a temporary solution - things will change and eventually it will be unsafe for him to venture out alone even with a tracker. Judgement gets impaired in other ways as well.
