Comments on Senior Launcher - Simple Phone for Android
★★★★★Jim Toal· May 25, 2026
I cannot recommend this app highly enough for seniors, especially those with dementia. I installed it on my dad's phone, and it's helped a ton to make it easier for him to use. I limited his home screen to five people for him to call, plus the weather app. All other apps are hidden. Lots of settings to customize. I also emailed the developer with a few feature requests, and they were very responsive, then updated the app within a week to add them! Thanks!
★★★★★Kelley Jeanne· Jan 29, 2026
Very well-designed. The best! Needs a direct dial 911 button, preferably next to menu. Even better if it brings up a super simple confirm message to avoid accidental taps. Also wish I could swipe. I absolutely *love* that both hold and click will direct dial! Seniors also have a tendency to have unsteady clicks that often register as tiny swipes. If this app treated those like clicks also, it would be even better. Worth a lot more than the tiny one-time app fee!

This is very useful launcher for senior citizens. However is there a way to totally disable the notification and quick action panel opening when senior person swipes the screen? For example while on YouTube or viewing galleries they end up swiping down the quick action trays and messing up by pressing available actions while trying to dismiss the quick action tray.

Got this for my 87 yo mother-in-law, works great on her new Moto G Power 5g 2024. Suggestion for us yanks.... she doesn't know what a torch is and while SOS is kind of universal, 911 would be better so.... it would be nice to be able to rename the quick apps, so she can have 911 & Flashlight instead of SOS and Torch. Thanks.

★★☆☆☆Shirley Garvin· Jun 30, 2026
I did the whole set up for my grandma and when I got to the end I could either pay or do the free trial. I do not mind paying for it, however, there is no "continue" button. So I did the whole set up and can't move forward with it because it won't let me pay.
