    Easiest thing to search for is “medical alert watch”

    that was the first thing i tried and then i immediately encountered intense levels of ad enshitification that happens when you run searches for consumer electronics; half of them weren't even rugged phones despite putting "rugged" (w the quotes) in my search strings. then i tried searching by brand names and again the enshitification provided me with unhelpful results.

    thank you again.

      Yeah I get that, sorry if I didn’t help much, just remember it doesn’t have to be rugged you could find a watch and then see if there is a case for it, just like a phone has a case. You can have a smart watch of your choice and a case for it.

        i didn't know that existed for smartwatches.

        At the risk of sounding like a broken record: THANK YOU!!!
