A smartphone is more than just a means to talk and text. According to an article by Popular Science, some of the additional capabilities are features that can benefit seniors. And they are available for users of the Apple iPhone, Samsung Galaxy, and Google Pixel.
Each offers a variety of settings that will make the device easier to use for senior citizens. For instance, you can adjust the Text Size to make the text larger and easier to read. The Hearing Devices feature allows you to connect a compatible hearing aid. Live Caption will automatically add subtitles for video and audio. Zoom provides an on-screen magnifier allowing users to take a closer look at icons or text that might otherwise be difficult to read.
Council of Seniors Is Here To Help Older Americans
All of us here at the Council of Seniors want to improve the lives of retirees.
From a financial aspect, that means getting Congress to enact The SAVE Benefits Act. The passage of this bill can make up for Social Security cost-of-living adjustments (COLAs) that have let you down in recent years. If it passes, $581 will be returned to eligible seniors.
