Smart Frame by ViewClix, The Digital Picture Frame with Video Calling, Send Photos & Videos, Designed for Grandparents, Share from Phone, 1 Month Membership Included, 10.1”

So I’ve tried Zoom and almost all other ways to video call and there are too many windows and buttons for my mom and sister to understand. This thing was SO easy to set up, and functions as a slideshow picture frame and the BEST part is I just use the app to video call and all they have to do is stand in front of it and make sure it’s on!! Call quality is great! If my family can figure it out -trust me-so can yours!!

Works great. Perfect and easy for my 90 year old mother. She doesn’t need to do anything I control it with the app

A truly worthy purchase for my elderly mom! She is 88 and lives states away from me, and my siblings who live near her occasionally use it with her to talk with me from afar. She loves the non-stop array of photos it displays and I upload more on a regular basis to keep it interesting for her. It has come in very handy, also, as a means to check in on her on the rare but worrying occasion when she fails to answer her phone. Wifi connectivity has been great, no issues, excellent speed of video, and I would say a truly worth it value for money. Bravo!

Love the product, but it does not hold the settings for sleep

My 92 year old Dad is now in assisted living and has dementia. Since many of the family do not live nearby, I have been looking for a way to be able video chat with him, without him having to manage an electronic device. At best it was not easy for him, and now with the dementia, it is even more confusing for him. The ViewClix is what I have been looking for, and did not think I would find! This device will enable family and friends to video call Dad to keep him engaged and help his mental capacity. And he will not even have to touch the device! I have set up the ViewClix and tested it a bit. When we get it to Dad and see how it goes, I will report back again. However, I feel sure that this will be great based on what I have seen so far. Not only can we call and the device will answer automatically enabling us to see Dad and he will see us. But I can send photos and messages to the device for him to see. For instance, if a family member has a birthday, I will put a message on the frame reminding Dad that. Or a special message for the holidays, etc. Set up was very easy! I'm excited to get this to Dad to be able to see him more!This is a great electronic frame also. However, Dad already has a terrific electronic frame (Aura-great!) with many, many photos on it, which he loves. Since he has that, we will primarily use the ViewClix for video calls and special messages to Dad. I'll let you know how it goes, but so far.....it's great!

This is a wonderful product. Three cheers! As my 91-year-old mother has gotten more and more befuddled with her iPhone, ViewClix has become our go-to way to communicate. She lives in a retirement home that has only shared Wi-Fi, but I realized her senior Verizon account offers unlimited data, so I made her iPhone the Wi-Fi hotspot, and it works perfectly!! I was able to add my brothers to the account so they can easily communicate, and we can do group calls. It's very nice to see her whole room instead of just her face when she holds her iPhone. I looked at the Alexa Echo product, but it just had too many features that would confuse her ~ she literally does not have to touch this device at all. I have even turned off all the extra features on ViewClix, i.e. weather and time because I want it to be just a communication device. She loves it and so does the rest of the family.

Easy set up... the biggest decission was what mounting solution to go with and where to mount it. I used an arm mount on a dresser and the distance and hearing ability of my father-in-law made the use of a phone beneficial. He often is in a wheel chair and uses a phone on a side table (which may have been a better mouning point. I had to screw the mounting arm to the table (would have been the same for the side table) since the clamp mount needed a couple of inches to be useable. I am 2,000 miles way so adjustments don't come easy.I am very happy with this solution. It requires a subscription ($10 month after the first month) only for use a couple hours a day, which adresses facility concerns about monitoring.

I bought my first one 4 years ago for my father who went into care home with dementia. At the time we couldn’t visit due to Covid. The ViewClix frame was great since we could set up daily video chats. The calls are activate from our end so dad didn’t have to do anything other than be present for the call.He also really enjoyed the continual picture slideshow that we could control online without accessing the frame (again no action required from him). He would sit for hours watching the pictures and reading the captions. Now when we visit it is easy to get him talking about the pictures he is seeing. It is easy for family to add and label photos through the phone app as well as make video calls. His frame is still going strong after 4 years.I purchased another ViewClix frame to use myself. All the features that make it easy to control/upload for my dad works for me too. It is nice having it turn on/off per a schedule.My only experience has been using the basic functions without the extra paid subscription they offer.
