Elderly uncle puts phone in silente. Help?

Question

Hello, my uncle is 70 and he sometimes puts his phone on silent and we're nota able to reach him. Is there an app that would check If his volume is maxed out every 30 min, and If It isnt, do It? Thank you.It is an Android. It would be good If the app started working even If the phone restarted

Maybe he just wants some privacy. 70 isn't that old, I'm 77 and still very functional. Not all of us want to be on an electronic tether every minute of our lives.

Volume Lock: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=uglyguy.volume... It's useful also if you have small children that like to use the tablet with the sound turn up to eleven.There are a few similar apps. I think we are using that.

Get him a smartwatch and watch as he "forgets it" every day
