What to look for
- One tap to answer, or it won't get used.
- Digital frames put family photos in the room without anyone having to operate anything.
- Set it up before giving it. A device handed over in its box tends to stay in the box.
Common questions
- What is the easiest video-call device for someone not tech-savvy?
- Look for a large-screen smart display or a senior-friendly tablet that answers calls automatically or with one tap, so there's nothing to set up each time. A loud speaker and a big screen matter most.
- How do digital photo frames work for family?
- Family members send photos from their phones, and the frame updates itself over Wi-Fi, with nothing for the recipient to do. It's an easy way to keep a parent feeling connected day to day.
