How It Works
Just5 offers mobile phones that are designed for audiences that
require five basic features: ease of operation, big buttons, amplified
sound, a long-lasting battery for reliability, and an emergency SOS
button. Primary target audiences include seniors, people with poor
eyesight or hearing problems, people with medical conditions that
require constant care, and kids who need a “starter phone” with basic
functionality.
Just5’s phones provide large
buttons to simplify calling and texting; a digital display for more
accurate dialing and texting; a high-volume speaker with amplified
sound up to 100dB; a physical switch on the side of the phone to lock
and unlock the keypad; an FM radio for convenient listening without a
headset; and a handy flashlight and also a speaking keypad.
For
emergency situations, users can preset up to five phone numbers for
911, family, friends, doctors, etc. When users press the emergency SOS
button, the phone will text an urgent message (e.g. “I’m having an
emergency, please answer”) to these five numbers, then dial them in
prioritized order. When dialing, the phone will sound a loud siren to
attract the attention of others. Once someone answers a call, the phone
automatically switches to loud speaker mode for easier communications.
This feature is vital if a user drops the phone after pressing the SOS
button.
