GreatCall / Best Buy Health
“A handset designed for eyes, ears, and one urgent button — later a Best Buy Health line.”
The phone with a real button.
GreatCall's Jitterbug made mobile phones usable without a grandchild on retainer. Lively and Best Buy Health grew from that beachhead.
Proved senior-first hardware could win at retail.
