Tips for purchasing technology for seniors
When purchasing technology for elderly loved ones, the experts at GrandPad recommend solutions that offer the following features:
- Built-in 4G LTE data to ensure a reliable connection any time, anywhere. This ensures a reliable connection, since many seniors over the age of 75 do not have home internet, and those who live in assisted living or skilled nursing facilities experience limited or spotty Wi-Fi and often require staff assistance to access the network. GrandPad comes with built-in 4G LTE in every device, with no additional costs or contracts required. That means mom or grandma can connect with family, show off her latest photos, and play games at home or on the go.
- Protection from unwanted calls, scams, and phishing attempts. Fraud against seniors has increased significantly since COVID-19 hit, due in large part to the overall increase in online activity. GrandPad features a unique, closed network for greater security. That means no one outside the individual's "trusted circle" can contact a GrandPad user. However, the GrandPad user can freely make calls or send emails and texts. Plus, the built-in private social network protects users from the pitfalls of social media.
- 24/7/365 personalized customer care. At any time, day or night, the GrandPad user can press the red "help" button on their GrandPad and they will be directly connected to a GrandPad Expert Adviser within seconds. No 800 numbers, phone VRUs, online chat, or emailing customer service for support. One touch of the "help" button and the user is connected within seconds to a GrandPad agent.
- Easy-to-use apps and brain games at no extra cost. GrandPad features easy-to-use group video calling; voice-enabled texting and emailing for people who have difficulties typing or using a touchscreen; secure family photo and video sharing; and more than 15 engaging brain games that support cognitive health and enjoyment.
- Ergonomic design for people with dexterity challenges. Devices that come with multiple cords, small charging ports, and complicated packaging can cause frustrations for people with arthritis, tremors, or dexterity issues. GrandPad comes ready to use, right out of the box, with no setup required. It boasts an ergonomic design and enhanced, front-facing speakers and camera. Plus, a hands-free charging cradle means mom or grandma won't have to struggle with small cords and plug-ins.
