Choosing between an iPhone’s Accessibility mode and a Chatsie phone? Here’s a breakdown of some of our key features.
Chatsie Phones: Chatsie offers a unique remote setup feature that allows family members or caregivers to configure the phone for the user using an access code entered on manage.chatsie.com. You can set up contacts, adjust settings, and help your parent/friend troubleshoot without having to be in the same room.
iPhone Accessibility Mode: In contrast, the iPhone does not offer any remote setup capabilities through its Accessibility mode. Users must configure their devices on their own or with in-person help, which can be challenging for those with limited technical skills or physical limitations.
2. Shortcuts
Chatsie Phones: Chatsie phones come with customizable shortcuts that can be easily set up to provide quick access to the most frequently used features and contacts. These shortcuts are designed with simplicity in mind, ensuring that users can make calls, send messages, or access emergency services with just one or two taps.
iPhone Accessibility Mode: While the iPhone does offer some shortcut options, they are not tailored for specific contacts.
Chatsie Phones: Installing apps on Chatsie phones is designed to be as straightforward as possible. An “Add Apps” menu walks the user through the process of installing an app from the Google Play store.
iPhone Accessibility Mode: Apps can only be installed before switching on Accessibility Mode, making it difficult for users to customise their accessible homepages.
Chatsie Phones: Chatsie phones feature adjustable tap sensitivity settings that cater to users with different levels of dexterity. This allows users to modify how the screen responds to touch
iPhone Accessibility Mode: While the iPhone does offer some options to adjust touch sensitivity, these settings are buried within the Accessibility menu and are not as straightforward to configure.
