I know this subject has come up now an then here on HackerNews but I am looking to build a phone for my elderly mother. I have mostly given up on the idea of a stand alone phone but maybe a Bluetooth handset. Features I am looking for are
big buttons (but as few as possible),
contact list (easy to navigate),
read texts (She does not text but sometimes receives them for administrative info),
speaker phone with ok performance.
as few bells and whistles as possible.
Commercial solutions do not really meet these needs (AFAIK, I am open to other suggestions). Thank you for any help you might be able to provide. Please ask for any clarification that might help answer the question. I think this could be a useful thing to exist in the world.
