Not quite as stalkery as this first appears....
A women I work with has a child with Down's syndrome. He is now in his late teens, and she wants him to have more freedom. However, as he cant read, and struggles with directions, he often gets lost. I mentioned that Android, iOS etc offer programs allowing you to see where your friends are, but as I am massively socially inept I have never had any cause to use GPS tracking apps
What I am after is a recommendation for a CHEAP phone/phones, 1 for him and 1 for him mum, and the most reliable program for this kind of thing. Ideally, an app that can run in the background so as it wont get accidently killed, and accurate enough so if the young fella and his mum are around town or alike, and he gets lost, she has a good idea what shop or alike he is in
Hope we can get some ideas together, or someone could point me in the direction of some decent hardware/software.
