iPhone

Add their contacts, show them the code, done. A big-button phone for mom, dad or grandma, set up from your iPhone. GrammyFone turns an iPhone into a calm, big-button phone for your parents and grandparents: a large photo for everyone they call, and one red Emergency button. You set it up from your own phone, and keep it up to date from anywhere. HOW IT WORKS On your phone: 1. Add the people they call, with a photo each. 2. Tap "Send to their phone" and show them the QR code, or print the one-page instructions. 3. Add or change a number or photo any time, from your own phone. You never have to touch theirs again. On their phone: 1. Point the camera at the QR code. 2. Tap the green button that says "Yes, this is my phone". That is the whole setup. From then on they tap a face to call. There is nothing for them to type, no account to create, and no password. BIG, CLEAR AND CALM - A large photo button for every person, sorted into Family and Friends - A gentle "Call Anna?" confirmation so nobody calls by accident - Phone call, FaceTime video or FaceTime audio, per person - Follows text size and dark mode, with extra large layouts - Settings open only with a long press, so they stay out of the way EMERGENCY, WITH LOCATION - One button calls the emergency number for your region (you can change it) - The family gets an alert with where they are, ready to open in Maps WIDGETS - Put a loved one's photo on the Home Screen or Lock Screen and call with one tap PRIVATE BY DESIGN No account, no ads, no tracking of you. Contacts sync through Apple iCloud between the people you invite, never through our servers. The app counts anonymous feature usage to improve itself. GRAMMYFONE FAMILY Free: set a phone up by hand, with up to four people - your own phone, or theirs while you have it in your hands. GrammyFone Family is what you buy to do it over iCloud instead: set their phone up from your own, and add or change people afterwards without ever touching theirs again. It also unlocks emergency alerts and removes the limit on people and phones. One purchase, shared with your Family Sharing group, and phones you send a setup to never pay. GrammyFone is not a medical alert or monitoring service. Calls and alerts depend on the phone, network, iCloud and permissions.
