Joyous and life savingJan 27, 2022
We heard about viewClix from a friend whose mother loved it. We got one for both my parents and my mother in law. They love it. We got it just before the pandemic and what a lifesaver to help us stay connected. For my Dad, in the last months of his life, his greatest joy was watching the slide show. He pointed out pictures to all visitors. Popping in to say hello was easy and fun for everyone. Then when my Dad was ill, it became a medical assist tool. I could pop into his room, check in on him, and summon help if I saw him struggling and then I could observe that help being given.
There are many devices now that can run a slide show or make a video call but they just aren’t as easy or the screens are much smaller. My best friend also bought one for her parents and as I visited there the other day, I enjoyed watching the slide show.

Great device for elderlyJan 26, 2022
I purchased the VewClix for my mother who lives in an assisted living facility. She was on lock down for many weeks during the pandemic and we were unable to visit with her. The ViewClix provided a great way to stay in touch. Easy set up and I can control everything from my PC. Mostly use to send pictures. Don't use video calls as much. Mom can't hear that well. Nick

Best Video phoneJan 26, 2022
My husband 77 yrs won't answer his phone let alone keep it charged. The video phone is a God sent. When I had to be hospitalized from work, his phone wasn't working. View clix worked great. He can hear it two rooms away. It's wonderful to see the pictures of our loved ones and to see them face to face while talking to them. As long as we have internet it works. Sometimes we misplace our phones or the battery dies. Never have to worry about that with View clix.

Easy to set up & use! Great way to stay connected!Jan 26, 2022
This has been a wonderful way for us to stay in touch with our 91 year old grandmother that lives an 8 hour drive away. Throughout the pandemic, when it was not safe or even permitted for us to visit her, we were able to send her pictures and constantly update her with our day-to-day lives and she could see her great grandchildren with new pictures regularly. The pictures are easy to upload and easy to swap out when there get to be too many pictures on the reel. We’ve only used the video chatting function a few times because she was not really wanting to be on video, but it works just fine. The only issue we needed to address when purchasing was providing internet, which we resolved with a simple jet pack from a mobile phone carrier.

View Clix: A Way to Stay in TouchJan 26, 2022
Basically works well and is ideal for the recipient who is not technically inclined or perhaps has a reduction in cognition. The receiver has little to do but enjoy the conversation and the caller will end the call with no responsibility of the recipient. Real easy. My one complaint might be that the speaker is not adequate. Many seniors have hearing deficits (even with aids) and would benefit from a lmore vibrant speaker.

Thank you for your review, John! If needed, both models have the ability to add external speakers or headphones to boost the sound.

Great giftJan 25, 2022
My Mom and Dad enjoy seeing pictures of Grand children and Great Grand children. It was especially nice during Covid.

Very helpfulJan 25, 2022
This worked great in the room in my dad's nursing home. I could see him and call the facility if I had concerns about what I saw or heard. Have the family pics displayed on the frame was also a very nice feature.

A real life saverJan 25, 2022
We purchased the ViewClix during 2020 COVID for my Mom who has zero tech skills and doesn't even own a smart phone. It was a life saver! We have been able to talk in person and share pictures of various family, friends, trips, and pets. It was truly a blessing during Christmas 2020 when we couldn't visit in person! Thank for ViewClix for creating such a useful tool.

ReviewJan 24, 2022
It really amazing that theres something that doesn't require the receiving end to pick up. Really great for elderly people.
The set up is a massive pain though. The remote control is just plain awful. Infuriating to use. Entering anything with that piece of junk makes me think it was never even tested. I've gone through a few of your remotes hoping they'd improve, and they're all equally garbage. I would work on that aspect.

Best thing I ever boughtJan 24, 2022
I got this for my parents so the family could do video calls beginning November 2020 at their private home. They have no laptops or smartphones. Setup of the frame was simple for me, and I setup all of the guest accounts for the children and grandchildren.I set the frame to auto answer calls and to not accept calls from 9pm to 9am. This works perfect as remotes are not something they remember how to use. The frame is in their dining room on a side buffet and they don't feel like it is intrusive there. They have had several power and wifi interruptions but the frame requires no intervention to come back online. As their dementia gets worse we do far more pictures then calls, but that's ok as they sit together and watch the slideshow often. It took me about 6 practice runs with them just to repeat what the frame is for and get them used to going into the dining room when it chimes. My family sends a picture or more nearly every day. They will both turn 90 this year and are mostly at home all day and are checked on every day. I'm 60 miles away and one sister lives a few blocks from them. Haven't required any support and We love the product!
