Hello Charlie, we recommend keeping the Jitterbug Flip phone powered on and closed when not in use so that it can receive any updates or notifications properly. If the phone was left open, you could expect the battery to drain faster and calls would need to be answered by pressing the “Yes” button. For additional support, please contact our Customer Service Team at 1-800-733-6632.
