That two hour panic is so real, my son left his phone in his backpack at school once and I spent the whole afternoon imagining worst case scenarios while he was actually just playing pickup basketball at the park down the street. Felt stupid after but also realized I had no backup plan for exactly this kind of thing. A friend who deals with similar chaos mentioned uMobix parental control app for android , said it’s not about being creepy but just having a way to check when phones get left behind or go silent. Started using it mainly for those random gaps and honestly it’s cut down on the frantic calling and texting cycles a lot.
