Ratings and reviews

Very well designed. The best! Needs an direct dial 911 button, preferably next to menu. Even better if it brings up a super simple confirm message to avoid accidental taps. Also wish i could swipe. I absolutely *love* that both hold and click will direct dial! Seniors also have a tendency to have unsteady clicks that often register as tiny swipes. If this app treated those like clicks also, it would be even better. Worth a lot more than the tiny one-time app fee!

This is a fantastic simple interface and I recommend that you spend a moment trialling it. That said, with the operating system preventing the main "pull down" settings being accessed, I will not be able to prevent my elder-folk from making inadvertent changes to the system settings. For this reason, I can't go ahead.

Tested it out. 1. I noticed that there was no option to disable the 'Quick Settings panel' feature. The more options there are to disable features that seniors could accidentally modify or misuse, the better. 2. It was also annoying to hide apps one by one. It would be better to have the opposite functionality, where only the allowed apps are shown.
