Caring for Elderly Parents: How Location Sharing Helps
November 20, 2025•6 min read
Safety Tips
Caring for aging parents is a delicate balance between safety and independence. Location sharing can help.
When Location Sharing Helps
- Parents with early memory issues who might get confused
- Active seniors who drive or travel alone
- Parents recovering from surgery or illness
- Long-distance caregiving situations
Having the Conversation
Approach the topic with respect. Explain that it's about staying connected, not about control. Let them see your location too.
Useful Geofences
- Their home (get alerts if they leave unexpectedly)
- Doctor's offices
- Grocery store and pharmacy
- Community center or church
The SOS Button
Make sure they know how to use the SOS feature. One tap sends their location to family members if they need help.
