ViewClix has been a wonderful asset for my uncle in the nursing home. He isn't able to use his cell phone any longer so now we are able to have face-to-face conversations. I would highly recommend this to anyone who wants to keep in touch with loved ones.
We purchased this frame for my mom (86 yr) who lives in an assisted living facilty.. It is so easy to use and love that she does not have to push any buttons, etc.. given many of the tech products out there are challenging for her. Anyone we give access to can call her or share pics (grand kids, siblings, friends) It has been lifesaving during COVID when we couldn’t visit her. Thank you for an excellent product!
This is an awesome product. Sure wish I would of found out about earlier than I did. My husband cannot speak so he just sits in his wheelchair and I can talk and see him without him having to do anything.
We purchased the 10 inch frame for my Mom in December 2020 as a way to stay in touch with family while we couldn't visit due to COVID. She has never owned a computer and was hesitant about receiving this as a gift. She LOVES it! Family & friends are able to upload pictures to her frame and she has done video chats with people from Europe she hasn't seen in years. It has really been a blessing for her. I manage the frame from out-of-state in terms of who is allowed access, the daily hours of the frame, and how it answers calls. So simple to use!
My family is sort-of large (my 2 parents and us 4 kids, 7 grand kids, and now the first great grand child) and we are spread out over the east coast, New Jersey, Virginia and Georgia. My wonderful wife found this product online and it has made all those miles that much easier to traverse.
ViewClix is not just a Picture Frame, but a communication device on many levels. My parents could not be there for the birth of their first great grand child, but ViewClix made it possible for them to SEE her and to share in the joy over a long distance without traveling.
My father is 85 and my mom is 80, they do very little driving, so this has brought sharing photo's of holidays, birthday's, special occasions, etc. that much easier. All we have to do it send out "invites" to all the people you want to allow to upload pictures to the "ViewClix Frame", and the viewer can just sit back and enjoy the slideshow!!
AND....If there were not enough, you can also make "Video Calls" with it. So, when my nephew and his wife bought their new home, they were able to video chat with my mom and dad and show them around the home.
All in all and very worthwhile concept brought to life!! And I can also say that the Customer Service/Support is TOP NOTCH!! I emailed them with a problem with the included microphone and they shipped a new one instantly!! They are caring and supportive people who just want you to be able to see/talk to your loved ones whenever you want. It is a great idea brought to life!!
It's allowed my mom to see all the grandkids and great-grandkids when COVID was at its worst, she really enjoyed it.
It lost connection at times, but just having her power it off and on did the trick each time.
I purchased the Viewclix when my father was placed in hospice. Due to covid visitation was limited and I live 1000 miles away. The viewclix allowed me to see and speak to my father during this difficult time. I had some of the best converstaions I've ever had with my father.
My father has since past but I still use the viewclix regulary to speak with my mother. We purchased a second unit for my inlaws. I highly reccomend.
My mother loves her Viewclix! She feels more connected to family because she can see pictures of the great grandchildren even though they can't visit in person. Thanks to Viewclix for a product that works for someone that is not technologically savvy!
My mother is 93 and is home bound. ViewClix has been essential in keeping in touch with her and monitoring her wellbeing. I can't begin to tell you how gratifying it is to be able to stay in touch with her.
I live in Canada and my elderly parents are in the States. I found View Clix in the Fall of 2020. I was able to see my parent's faces for the first time in a year! We were able to visit all the time through Covid, and my parent's didn't have to worry about any technical buttons and so forth. I loved being able to set the hours that the frame is on to discourage too early or too late calls by family and friends.
It's a great frame, and I love the ease of uploading photos through the browser.
I have trouble with hearing through the mic, and they had trouble hearing me, but that could be because my dad's tv is at times too loud.
Also, I wish there was a way to cast the photos on a TV or large monitor. We would have loved to use the photos for my mother's Zoom funeral for a slide show.
