This is how you know this phone is NOT for seniors: [1] it has an superfluous LED flashlight in it, [2] the scroll up/down button is one button, not two, [3] it has a superfluous camera, [4] it has the ability to store pictures and send them to someone, and [5] it has text options. The room full of 30 somethings that design (and review) these phones need to talk to a person in their 70s (you know, the intended users).

I have had a flip phone for a number of years. They require use of two hands to open it which makes it difficult. Why don't they make one with a push button opening device an then add a snap in lens for those who use glasses?
When you open the phone our glasses automatically pop up above the face. You wouldn't have to grope for your glasses from a pocket or purse. The lens could be sold in varying strengths just like the reading glasses are.

I am old and own a iPhone and have no trouble seeing it with glasses. I love High Tech. But I am sure there are elderly people who do need bigger buttons.

How do I set up my jitterbug flip phone

[charlieavril]

This phone has the worst service ; it's sketchy and unpredictable.. I bought it for my mom and I cant reach her on it. If she has an emergency she wont be able to call me either. I have to find a more reliable phone ASAP. This is a safety concern for my elderly mom.

WHERE CAN I BUY THEM IN NEW HAMSPHIRE? THANKS.

Can anyone help me to unlock jitterbug flip phone from gratecall?

I am 41 and looking to replace my old flip phone! I want to spent around $50.00. This something I like here. I do not have a flashlight or flash on my old flip phone. Emergency are interesting too.

Hi does anyone know if this phone has a front camera to do video calls?

[mickeygriffiths]

Where can i buy this in person? Never mind. I read the comments below.

[mikegilbertson]

this sounds more like an infomercial than a review.

[plaidpaisley]

Seems this phone is somehow muted on my M-I-L’s phone. Trying to troubleshoot it from afar…🤦🏻‍♀️🥸🙅🏻‍♀️

[michelebriere]

Jitterbug is crap. Mom has used it for several years, and always has a problem with it. Don't bother.

[wmgthilgen]

The Jitter Bug and other such senior phones have big large button which if one wears glasses and the majority of seniors do, don't need. ALL the speakers in all the phones are the same size and subsequently no different. Using an app can boost the level but only a small degree or risk blowing the speaker as I've done on numerious supposed senior phones.

If they can make larger loud speakers, why can't they make larger listening speaker. I hate having to utilize ear buds when using a phone. It's not only cell phones, all the electronic normal phones have the same issues, we can't hear the conversation from the other end without an app and or ear buds.

As mentioned below, this is an ad, not a review. Please don't support these deceptive companies.

I had the privilege of trying one of these last. A 80 year old friend has one. She doesn't use it and it sits in a drawer. I was appalled at how horrible this device is. I do not know what model I was dicking with as there was only the Jitterbox name on the phone. I could not get the screen to come on and I initiated a call and could not get it to disconnect or get the hands free to work. I am pretty technical as I work in IT and all I can say is this is a real POS. Shaking my head at this junk. Do NOT waste any money on it. We are getting her a iphone so she can tell Siri what she wants to do. Update: Well, apparently I don't know the name of this junk phone. Sorry. Jitterbug! LOL!

Why don't they show you how to change the battery or to remove it's case in case it's dropped in water?
