I recently downloaded this app on my Mom's smartphone and she loves it. She feels so comfortable using her smartphone now! The large buttons, texts, and simple layout makes this very user-friendly for elderly people to use all their smartphone features. Thank you for making this app.

I previously purchased this app. Now its requiring me to pay a subscription for our new phone. Also all the apps I want have trashcan icons next to them. How can I remove that so my mom doesn't delete them. This app really should be password protected. It too easy for her to accidentally change all the settings and delete things. Potentially a great app but needs work.

The app is the best I've found thus far. The buttons are large, screen is customizable. Only suggestion is to remove the "remove from favorite" button on the favorites list screen. My mom keeps removing me from her favorite screen.

This app is exactly what I was looking for. Unfortunately the very first setting allows you to disable it. Took my mom one day to hit that then it was right back to the confusing phone for her. Please make that setting password protected or at very least move it to the bottom of the settings.

This app is such a great idea and structure however it is completely useless with the inclusion of the ads. The purpose of the app being a minimalist and accessible interface for the senior user is nonexistent because the ads confuse and distract the senior user from accessing the simple buttons available. An ad free version must be made available in order for this app to actually do what it is to do

Easy layout. Ease of access is great. However, would like it to have a weather widget and dark mode option. Possibly add a high contrast option (like blue and yellow) for visually impaired people like me. Thanks.

I have been looking for the right app for seniors for quite sometime and this is exactly what i am looking for. The design comes with contact and apps shortcut in one page which is very easy to use for elderly who has never use a smartphone before without the need to navigate different pages. Touch button is also touch friendly, no more worries about long press button. I hope next update will include simple theming such as dark mode, other than that it is perfect

This seems good much easier to use than others especially with the simple speed dial. BUT. ... when a call comes into the phone, the phone rings, but there is absolutely no notification or screen or button or anything to press to pick up the phone call. ? How do you answer a phonecall?

Android 11 kills this app (reported, so known to developer - there was a single response with a promised update in November, which never happened). Support has not responded to subsequent messages since 11/24/2020, effectively rendering the app (or rather, the full phone, as the app was required to make it useful to the user) useless after the android 11 update.

Well, I used to have this on my mom's phone, and it was great, but now it just crashes. Wrote support, never heard back, so 1 star feels generous at this point. Update: finally heard back from the developer. As it turns out they haven't kept up with Android updates from months ago.
