AirTag
If your dad is always misplacing his keys, wallet, or other items, get him an Apple AirTag.
The AirTag is a small, lightweight, and water-resistant tracker that can be attached to anything he wants to keep track of. He can use the Find My app on his iPhone or iPad to see the location of his AirTag on a map, play a sound on its built-in speaker to find it, or use Precision Finding to get directions to it. The AirTag uses Bluetooth and Ultra Wideband technology to tap into a network of over a billion Apple devices that can help locate it.
As a newly added feature with iOS 17 (coming this fall), family members will be able to share an AirTag as well.
