Q: how does the picture function work ?
A: The picture function allows you to pre-program frequently called numbers into the phone, then there’s a little plastic film that pops out so you can put a little photo of the people at those frequently called numbers (ie: Family members) on the buttons. When they need to call, they just look at the photo of who they want to call, and press that photo button. The phone will dial automatically whatever number you’ve pre-programmed for that photo. I hope that information helps. My Parents like the phone because the volume gets really loud so they can hear better.
