Setup with instructions Renny is a complete device, but it needs Bluetooth pairing with your phone and a few choices about ringtone, volume, and caller ID. A family member can do this from the instructions in about half an hour, so guided setup fits. No professional is needed.

What it is

Summary

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

Renny is a standalone alert box that rings loudly and flashes a bright light whenever your cell phone gets a call, even if the phone is silenced, set to vibrate, or in another room. You can pick from 5 classic-style ringtones made for different types of hearing loss, adjust the volume, or turn on Talking Caller ID so it announces the caller's number instead of ringing. It pairs by Bluetooth with one phone from up to 150 feet away, and no Wi-Fi, internet, or app is needed. If you want coverage in more than one room, you can pair two Rennys to the same phone. It only works with a single phone at a time.
