Easy to setup and use
I recently made a huge mistake by spending a lot of money on an Apple smart phone. It lasted six weeks then quit. Apple said it was full of water and could not be fixed. That was a total lie. I won’t ever purchase another Apple product for as long as I live. This phone was a fraction of the cost and does everything an Apple phone will do. (as long as it lasts for more than six weeks!)

Easy to use
This is a great product for anyone but especially for someone who struggles with technology.

A good option for seniors or young people
The phone was not too difficult to activate online, once you find the activation page. You have to activate it with Lively, it cannot be used on any other service.It is large enough for most people to see the screen well. It has a clear and simple menu, which can be adjusted as needed in the options. For a Senior who can learn, it will not take much effort to master the phone. Since it is an android, some features from google are available. An account from google will help transfer contacts to the phone. It is able to share location with other users of Google Maps without purchasing the Lively upgrade to track the phone location in a separate app. We are not using the advanced emergency response services from Lively yet but expect to in the future.For Seniors who cannot learn there are a couple of issues. It does not have a lift to wake feature, requiring the push button on the side to be pressed. This can be confusing for a person with some dementia to learn if they are transitioning from an Iphone to this phone. Another issue is the contact list provided through Google contacts permits favorites which are displayed on the top of the list if you open contacts, or if you open the phone app, but not if you open texts. These minor differences may be hard to learn for someone without a memory. The solution is probably to delete all of the contacts except a few critical ones, and eliminate the favorites. It is also possible to turn off the lock screen to make access simpler, but it will have no security at that point.We will see how it works, and I may update this review. At this point it appears to be the best option for a simple phone with actual features.

Worst buy of a lifetime
This is supposed to be easy to use. Yes, there are many other bad reviews, but somehow I was hopeful and tried it anyway. It’s my third cell phone, and the only one that I may have to return or throw into the trash. First of all, to set it up, you’re supposed to call a certain phone number. But when you dial that number, all you get is a recording that says the number is out of service. Then, somewhere in the instruction booklet, I found a second phone number, but that number gave the same result as the first one. So I called their Customer Service. That person managed, after about an hour, and with some difficulty, to connect me to a “set-up specialist” with whom I spent two or three hours on the phone. Finally she said my phone was ready to go. But it wasn’t. It still won’t receive incoming calls. It’s advertised as “simple,” but it’s by far the most ridiculously complicated and impossible to use of any phone I’ve tried. I will be either returning it or tossing it into the trash.

A good deal
It’s a phone for seniors. What more can be said

Not so easy
I got this phone for my daughter, who has special needs. Thought it would be easy. Not! Hand to set up. Had my son, who is a pro at that sort of thing, do it. It took him quite a while and a phone call.As for the phone, she likes the pre installed APS . But adding to them is problematic. I have a Google phone and like it way better.She can call me easily, however, which is really why we got it. Not an easy phone.

I love this phone!
I had an old, old version of this phone and it finally just wore out. I decided to buy the newest model and I am so glad i did. The battery holds its charge for days. Easy to use and has the same great features as my first jitterbug. Great choice for a great price.
