In just a few years, our good old mobile phones have turned into a real little pocket computer. Unfortunately this race for ever more functions is very often at the expense of the user experience. Here is a tip to make using an Android smartphone easier to access..
Smartphones aren't just for geeks
The latest generation phones allow you to perform countless tasks. Messages, consultation of websites, viewing videos, taking photos, listening to music or the radio, watching TV, playing, getting informed, managing one's schedule, etc. The list is so long that one could almost write a book.
On the flip side, interfaces have gradually become more and more sophisticated, making the use of mobile devices complex and preventing users from fully enjoying their devices. The large number of options and functions very often discourages neophytes..
Applications that make it easier to use your smartphone
Fortunately there are tools today (called launchers) capable of simplifying the interface of smartphones in order to easily access the most common functions. These applications are primarily intended for children, seniors, people with disabilities but also techno-refractory. They offer very simplified menus with large, very readable buttons.
With one click you can make calls, check your mailbox or send messages. The size of the characters but also the well contrasted colors greatly facilitate reading on the screen..
