Setup with instructions You can set this phone up with the instructions and a family member's help in about 30 minutes. The work is sizing the photos and programming each number. After that it is simple to use. It doesn't need a professional, but someone should check that every photo button dials the right person.

What it is

Summary

AI-generated from vendor-published content · October 1, 2026

This corded phone lets you dial by pressing a photo instead of a number. You slide pictures of up to 10 frequently called people into the phone, program in their numbers, and press the photo to place the call. A switch turns on a picture-dialing-only mode, which helps someone who can't dial a full phone number. The handset has 40dB of amplification for easier listening. It also has a 911 button, last number redial, a ringer with off, low and high settings, and a flash button for call waiting. Saved speed-dial numbers stay in memory even when the phone is unplugged, with no power or batteries needed. Photos need to be about 1" x 1-1/4", and call waiting only works if your phone company provides it.

    2. Print or trim a photo of each person to about 1" x 1-1/4" and place it in the matching photo slot.
    3. Program each person's number into the matching memory button, then test by pressing each photo to confirm it calls the right person. Plan on about 30 minutes, and ask a family member to help with the photos.
