There actually was a way to contact Billy on the watch, but Tim only added in on his still unconfirmed hunches. Tim isn't unfamiliar with how the powers of Shazam worked— Captain Marvel Jr. was a Titan after all. Since the incident with his Darrow 2 twin, he's had his growing suspicions. And this honestly was another tick on that list.
But Billy is his friend, and he understands that being a superhero often means keeping secrets from friends. Aggie knows who Tim is at night because of Barbara. Mr. Stark knows because he's Mr. Stark. Billy knows because he needed help and knew well enough to trust the other boy when he was in need and landed on his fire escape. If Billy is Shazam, he'll tell him when he ready. He trusts that.
Tim nods and reaches into his bag, pressing a button he added to his belt. It makes the smart watch flash his symbol again and he taps the screen to demonstrate how to accept the call. It brings up a map with a red dot flashing over Isabelle's apartment building.
"Batman's rule. Always be prepared for any possibility."
