Found a phone that can have a few pictures of the person to be called tapped on. My dad can not search for a person through contacts nor remember a family member’s phone number. The picture call is awesome and the phone has gps
but I worry he wouldn’t always have a phone on him. He’s never had one and is not accustomed to carrying one.
A watch would have a higher possibility of him putting it on naturally by himself and not having to worry that if he gets lost if he has his phone.
gps w/ picture calling on a watch is what I am looking for.

There are dog collars that will allow you to set a range and if the dog leaves that area you are notified. That might work.
Check with your local police department. The department where I live has a program with the Mental Health Department where they can track vulnerable people. Dementia, Autism... the person is fitted with what looks like a watch and if they go missing you call 911 and report them missing and tell the dispatcher they are on the "Care Trak" program. The officers show up, they have a book with all the people in the program and then a patrol car goes out with a special antenna and searches for the signal given off by the watch.

Elderly and tech, even without complications, is a brutal journey that too often ends in the same place.
An apple watch can respond to voice commands but it misses too often, and needs a daily charge. Maybe more than daily if he's making calls with it.
There are many gps tracker's out there including watches with better battery life.
