When seniors get a new phone, even phones labeled “senior-friendly” can be confusing, especially if there are memory issues.
Senio Launcher solves this with a super simple, easy-to-use home screen for Android phones — perfect for seniors and anyone with vision, memory or hand mobility challenges.
One configurable button list - just the things you select
Adjustable large text: easy to read for all eyes
Configurable text in buttons: easy to read
No icons to remember but can add emojis and contact photos
Settings are protected so nothing changes surprisingly
Senio is built with 20+ years of software development and usability expertise and insight into what seniors really need.
Senio Launcher replaces cluttered, small and confusing icon centered home screens with a clear, consistent and safe list, which seniors can find a lot easier than remembering the meaning of colorful icons and sideways swiping.
Perfect for caregivers who are looking for an easy solution to help seniors enjoy their smartphones without frustration.
Tip: Senio Launcher works on any Android phone — perfect if your ‘senior-friendly’ phone still feels complicated.
