This video, and probably many others in your series, are also very applicable for those who are new to smartphones. It is a huge leap from using a flip phone to a smartphone. Made extremely difficult at smartphone manufacturers do not provide a printable User Manual. (Relying on RUclips videos for functions is totally unacceptable. Inexcusable when one is buying a mid-range phone.)
Thanks for putting this video together. My 80 year-old mom just got a new phone and is getting very frustrated with it. The new Android phones can be a bit overwhelming for elderly users This will help me to set it up for her. Great video!👍
Hi there. Thank you very much for this video. I'm a public librarian who is in charge of tech classes for our older community and while I can find plenty of tutorials for iPhones specifically for beginners and seniors, I have a large-ish contingent of Android users who feel left out. As I'm an iPhone user myself, I need to learn from experts like you about Androids, so please add more Android content.
Thank you Josianne ,welcome to our community. I love your comment because it tells me what to produce. i will start to create more android content. I’m trying to decide which format to use,the onscreen showing my face as i explain or the tutorial with graphics one . let me know which do you like best. Please share our channel with your group because when we get 500 subscribers we can have a community tab which allows us to truly communicate and learn together!
@@boomerstechshow It would be a nice touch to see your face, but we're here for the tutorials. I appreciate the slow cadence of your voice and that your videos are short and focused. I will definitely share the channel with the group. I know something my group is very interested in is taking photos with their phones, sharing them, receiving them, saving them, even printing them. Hope you have something on that soon. Thanks for the quick response and best of luck! Here's hoping we reach 500 soon.
Thank you!! My grandfather had his old phone just die, and we can't find one that is easier to use from Apple. I was hoping there would be an app or something, and sure enough, there was thanks to your video!! It's made both his and my life much easier.
Thank you Bertrand for this invaluable source of information - greatly appreciated 👍🏽 I'm helping a senior neighbour with her phone and have a question for you. Is there any other way of REDUCING the number of apps on the screen (when you slide up) other than disabling them? As, whenever you try to disable the ones you don't need or have use for, they give a warning notice that if you proceed with it, it can affect the usability of the phone! Please help. Thank you
Thank you so much for this video. Today I am helping a couple in their 70's with their very first smartphone. I'm going to use all of your tips! I am going to show them how to find your channel so when I'm gone, they can refer back to what I did and also find other helpful tips. I'm very grateful for your teaching style and hope you continue to add helpful videos to your channel.

Need to know how to use this new phone I have gotten a new phone yesterday I do know how to use it my old phone kept on going to messenger messages simple way
Why i liked LG phones. It had a dedicated easy old people mode that was actually easy not like this bs
Thanks, I like the easy mode on android too and I created this channel to try and turn all phones into an easy mode, thank you for joining our community!
This all looks quite useful but sadly my bigger problem is preventing the senior from pressing a wrong button and getting it into an unusable state.
Try using an Applock app to lock Settings and Play Store
Any recommendations for phone for seniors? Only need phone for calls, text, internet to Google search and... I watch RUclips videos. That's all I use.
Hi Dom any iphone would work you don’t have to buy the latest this one will work amzn.to/3QaqoF4
