GrandPad: the Tablet for the Tech Beginner!
The Best Tech Device for Anyone who Is a Non-Tech Person!
With the holidays right around the corner, you are trying to find the right gift for your family members, friends or even a neighbor. The biggest issue for many is what to get your older relatives (your parent, grandparent, other relatives) who aren’t tech-savvy. Anyone who hasn’t got a smartphone or a small tablet ( think Amazon’s Kindle) is really missing during this pandemic to be able to see friends or family members virtually.
I found this to be a problem when my mom was really unable to do much on her computer other than send an occasional email — and even that was problematic. I have friends and other relatives who are older who never wanted to have a computer, are baffled by smartphones and don’t know what to do other than to call people on the phone. I even have a couple of friends who have given up being online except to send an occasional email. They like the super-basic elements but are unable to navigate sites like Facebook; Twitter and Instagram have them confused if they try to respond to any comments. It’s frustrating for these people and they have pretty much given up.
Most ignore tech devices unless there’s someone within the family that will help them learn how to handle a tech device- because for them the smartphone, tablet, or Kindle is too complex.
Here’s the latest and greatest tech for this holiday season for the elderly OR those who are not tech-savvy but might want to be able to get a device that is simple, basic, and really easy to use. Now there is a device for this category: GRANDPAD!
GrandPad was designed to meet the needs and interests of people over the age of 75. However, this device is perfect for those people who find that smartphones, tablets are difficult for these non-techie people. I know people who are younger (some just over 60, as well as others in their 40s, who don’t want to upgrade because they feel lost in the morass of various technologies that have developed. One person said it was like using her old phone was like having an AA degree and upgrading to a better, newer device required an MA’s worth of effort. Some don’t get the essence of so many online websites like Facebook, Twitter, or Instagram and how to use them, ave found GrandPad to be a viable option that allows them to dial in on the specific things they want/need to have most: online chats with family members, particularly those with done live visuals on both sides; the ability to share photos, and other things that have previously been too confusing or difficult for those who wanted to go online but couldn’t use the options to see, talk or share information easily.
Grandpad has been a lifesaver for families during COVID-19 lockdowns and social distancing. The innovative device is safe, simple, and secure and makes connecting with loved ones enjoyable and stress-free for older adults. GrandPad removes barriers to technology use that many seniors often face, by featuring:
–Ergonomic design with a larger screen and easy-to-use buttons;
–Crisp screen resolution with larger icons so text is easier to read;
–Powerful front-facing speakers;
–Specially fabricated touchscreen that responds better to aging skin that tends to dry and thin; and
–Built-in, secure 4G LTE data for always-on Internet access.
— Plus there are companion apps for iOS and Android– which makes for easy conversations with others.
GrandPad comes preloaded with every feature seniors need to stay connected to their loved ones without the difficult and distracting features of other tablets. This is the perfect holiday gift for older adults because it allows them to easily:
–Make unlimited video and voice calls to anywhere in the world;
–Share and enjoy photos and videos with a trusted circle of family and friends;
–Enjoy music and streaming radio;
–Play games and access news;
–Browse the Internet without fear of phishing scams;
–Order transportation through Lyft; and
–Connect with caregivers.
