    Those features you mentioned are actual quite widespread: the EU, Norway, Poland, the UK, Australia, Canada, NZ, and more all have them. It’s really just the US that insist on having basically indistinguishable sludge-coloured notes. I used to handle international currently regular and hated dealing with US dollars.

    I don’t have an answer to the direct question, but if she would struggle to use her phone in that situation I also imagine she might struggle to clearly say “Hey Alexa, make a call to Mommy Jim” or whatever. I’m walking at the moment so I don’t have the details to hand, but mmwave presence sensors can distinguish between someone standing and lying down. You can also buy Bluetooth wristbands that can detect if the wearer falls. It might be worth figuring out if a fall can be sensed rather than reported.
