Using GPS to Keep Track of Your Loved One

I use Jiobit to keep track of my Loved One (LO). We have two Jiobit dongles--one for each pair of walking shoes. 

Here is the website: https://www.jiobit.com/personal-safety

It requires a subscription, but I have found the service to be a great peace of mind. 

You can track your LO through an app on your smart phone. The Jiobit clip-on dongle needs recharging every now and then. It comes with a charging dock.

The gadgets that depend on Bluetooth are just not as powerful or accurate. 

Being able to track your LO can preventing the need for a Silver Alert (missing elder). Maybe your elder is still walking around by themselves and you just want to keep an eye on them. Or maybe they don't normally go out alone, but might slip out the back door or get separated from you while shopping. 

Put a Jiobit on them--on their shoe, belt, or something else that they always have on. If my LO ever asks, "What's this for?" I say, "It's in case of emergency."

Note: I also stuck my phone number onto the Jiobit dongle, in case the people who find my LO don't happen to look at the ID tag on her wrist or the ones ironed into her clothes.
