    A bit of string under his jumper and down the sleeves, attached to his phone. As you would with kid's gloves.

    Many things...but the phone is the most expensive and inconvenient to lose. It is a Galaxy so does not have the iphone app. Is there anything similar for androids? If it had a location tracking device on it, that would help, as it would save him searching house and car before realising he had left it somewhere else.

    I dont know to be honest.

    Other option is to attach the phone to say his belt by way of a chain.
