[Electronics-Talk] Accessible Phones?

[emerge at mindspring.com]

I am guessing, but there are a couple of other products using the name Lively, and I think they had to return to Jitterbug because of that. As I said, I returned the phone.

They are still advertising the lively on television, though. I thought that was a different phone. Pam.

I tried the Lively and returned it. The menus do read out. Amazon Alexa does talk, but only has five or six options at most.
 
The bit feature drawback is that the phone does not answer upon open or hang up upon close. The manual I had said that it was an option under Accessibility, but it had been removed according to a Lively representative.
 
Lively also appears to have returned to its original name which is Jitterbug.
 
If you choose this phone, good luck. It does have some good features, but it was not for me.

Last time it came up, people thought the Lively phone was OK.

I know this topic has come up here before, but a friend of mine has an old
push button phone that their carrier won't support any more. What is the
newest one of these phones, and who sells it?
 
Thanks in advance. I know this topic was a long thread on the list, so if
you want to write privately, my email is:

Thanks so much!
