My father has a habit of losing his phones. He's on his 4th or 5th iPhone in as many years because he keeps losing the fucking things.

Last time I went to his house I thought I struck gold and found his phone, only for him to tell me that the one I found was a backup phone he bought so that he'd have one ready for when he lost his main phone. And that brand new in box backup phone had gotten misplaced and some how ended up in the basement.

Does anyone have any recs on a Bluetooth find my phone device? I have a Garmin watch and use the find my phone function on it all the time. Something like that, but obviously not a $400 smartwatch. Every time I search for something all I get is fucking air tags which is the opposite of what I want.

Something that can be permanently affixed to a table would be great too.

I'll set it up, but he usually doesn't tell me that he lost his phone until it's been gone for weeks so it'll be long dead at that point. If he can find it himself I think it'd he'd actually use it. Hopefully anyways.

Find my shows last know location.

Maybe have a talk about safety and telling you as soon as you loose it lets you find?
