[NFBCS] Switch to iPhone?

[w3explorer at gmail.com]

Nancy,

No my phone hasn’t' been reset in any way.  But I have thought about doing a complete factory reset so that all of the software gets reinstalled with default settings.  Seems like anytime I get an Android or app update, some settings seem to get reset or overwritten.  Very frustrating.   

Thanks,
Dan

I think you would be pleased with how easy an iPhone is to use. If you would rather stay with Android, I would look for a Google phone or a Google family 1 phone. Manufacturers have agreed to accessibility standards for those phones.

Have you reset your phone in any way? Some resets don't require you to reload everything. 

Hope this helps. If you are being budget concious, the iPhone SE might be a good buy for you. It still has the home button. It doesn't have all the bells and whistles that some phones have but a lot of people love theirs.
