I am looking for some advice on trackers. We have used a Yepzon for my husband. However, I had too many issues with charging, tracking, etc. In addition it is not very user friendly.

I have found on the Android phones there is an option on Google Maps for location sharing. I activated that option on both our phones so if I go into maps I can see his location. I have used it several times while he was still driving and it saves a whole lot of worrying! I make sure his phone is charged & he has it with him. Easy to use and it's a free option.
