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.

Tile + life360 is my my go to. I have many of them, the pro edition has replaceable batteries. All of them can find your keys or whatever, or if you push the tile on your keys, it will ring your phone.

With life360, it will also show where your phone,wallet,keys, phone etc was last.

There is also find my phone with androids enable via we brouser on your google account, and find my friends / Apple icloud with Apple.
