Live tracking without internet connection is IMHO possible only as police-like phone tracking via cell tower location and tower signal strength . In rare tower region as rural Mongolia it may be very inaccurate. I am not sure about legal any technical availability of the solution.Also, I am not sure if such tracking is possible across many countries and if the target country must legally and technically support it.

.internet caffes? Not so many, honestly, few of them. More likely 'hotels'
where we will sleep. I was just interested if the Osmand app could give me
the option of live tracking for my family while I'm away so I could have 3
in one device: phone, GPS and live tracking. I would have to carry less
stuff and less things to charge.
If there is no possibility of ive tracking for Osmand than nothing. will
carry my SPOT

Your options are internet cafes and use a wifi connection to call home.
You can send your position from your GPS but you'll need to work out how to
how it.  Are there any Internet cafes in the area you are travelling.
OpenStreetMap has many of them but it does not include them all.

Conventional cell phone if there is coverage.  SMS text messaging could be
used.

Or Satellite probably either SPOT or Yellow brick.  Yellow brick would
give you messaging as well but Satellite today is much more expensive.

I know the option for the emergency (SPOT) but what I need is just live
tracking my route for the others from home while I'm away.

(My buddy and I use one when backpacking so that our wives can see roughly
where we are.)  I don't know of an Android phone, which you'd need to run
OsmAnd, that doubles as a SEND.

Yes, they will be in Europe and I will be riding my motorbike in
Mongolia and I didn't understand if they would be able to live track me
from home.
Thank you for your answer
