Older adults want tech companies to focus more on their needs.

Most people 50 and older now own a smartphone, but once they get it home, setting up the device and figuring out all the features can be tricky.
 
Instead of asking your kids for help or muddling through on your own, what if you could have a conversation with an AI-enabled voice assistant to help you personalize your device so it works well for you?

    I recently purchased a Samsung Galaxy S24+ 5G. I am 75 headed toward 76. The first app I used in setting up my new phone is the Smart Switch. This sent all my data from my old phone to my new phone. To help get more familiar with what the phone will do I purchased two books, A Seniors Guide to The Samsung Galaxy S24, S24+, and the S24 Ultra. Along with that book I purchased, The Colorful Guide to the Samsung S24, A Guide to the 2024 Samsung Galaxy. I found a magazine online titled, Samsung Galaxy The Complete Manual 5th Edition that I bought. I subscribed to the magazine too so I will receive future editions.

     

    A suggestion, check out the manufacturer's website for help or the place you purchased your phone if you have problems getting it connected.
