Real time GPS tracker for dementia patient

The GPS tracker I was using is being discontinued the end of the month. I used it to see where my husband was going on his bike rides since he got lost about a year ago, and I had to go find him. This wasn't free but it was worth the money and peace of mind. It was also real time too.

Can anyone recommend another? I need this before 4/30/18. It was Medic Geo which wasn't updated and they told me to use a parent app called Little Nanny/Little Parent. Now it's being discontinued!

Thanks!
 
As @psionandy already posted, you can just use the Google Maps app or Android's 'Find My Phone'.

Now that GPS is such a common smartphone feature you've got plenty of viable alternatives too. Just do a search in the Play Store for something like 'GPS tracker' and take your pick:

But whichever app you choose to reply upon, the most important thing is whenever your husband is leaving the house to make sure 'Location' is always enabled on his phone.
