I will be doing solo horseback riding soon and my mom wants me to have something on my person during the rides so she can check on me and my location without me needing to answer a text or phone call. It’s purely a safety thing and exclusively for me when I’m riding alone. Outside of riding, the tech will be turned off and stored with my riding stuff.

What would y’all do in this kinda scenario? I value the opinions of the people here in regards to tech more than the search results I was getting when I looked it all up.

    Just share your location on Google maps temporarily, that’s the easiest. You will have your phone with you and if your phone doesn’t have a signal it’s unlikely anything else you might be willing to take with you will.
