    I purchased this phone for an elderly, legally blind man and he could not use it. It took a couple of steps to answer and he could not read who was calling or his contact list. I completed a survey giving a poor response and someone from Lively called me and made arrangements for the phone to be returned and I was given a full refund. I was very pleased with this result.

    Bought it for my mother. Her phone is so old that she was warned that it would soon stop working. The jitterbug flip2 phone itself is ok. The service company still has not transferred her phone number in almost 2 weeks. We're cancelling and returning the jitterbug phone.

    Poor. Had to return. It was for 94 year old. Having to push OK button for almost every action....answer, are a call, etc. The reviews say this. Lively said, they plan to do an update to eliminate that requirement. I was sent the older model that allows the person to hear the caller as soon as the flip open the phone. It is the jitterbug model, not the lively.

    We bought one of these phones after hearing they were very easy for senior citizens to use, but even the simplest tasks -- like answering a ringing phone -- can be hard for non-tech-savvy seniors. Senior user regularly silences ringer by accident.

    i bought this for my 84 year old mother. Don’t waste your money this phone does not have sped dial and don’t answer when you open it. The also charge you a $35.00 activation fee that they don’t tell you about on the box at all. It’s way to hard to set up a iphone would be easier

    Purchased this phone for the voice activated calling with Alexis as operator is blind. Had the phone for 2 days and had to do an update. Update fixed phone to answer when you flip it open but the Alexis app to ask lively to call works only 50% of the time. You can have it working then the next call it will not. Very unreliable. Support said there were still doing updates.
