Simplicity is still at the heart of everything we do.
In 2006, we introduced the Jitterbug, the original easy-to-use cell phone for seniors. But we've grown to be so much more.
We're help you can count on as you age, with millions of families having relied on us to help their loved ones feel safe, connected and independent.
Easy to use then. Even easier today.
In the 2000s, cell phones were exploding in popularity. But for many older adults, they were too confusing to navigate.
Necessity met invention. A start-up called GreatCall saw the opportunity to meet the needs of an older generation and created the Jitterbug, with big buttons, large screens, and simple menus.
Suddenly technology had a new purpose: Simplicity.
The evolution of the Jitterbug
The first Jitterbug is introduced, making it easier than ever to stay connected with family and friends.
The Urgent Response service is launched, with highly trained agents ready to help in emergencies big or small, 24/7.
Our first Medical Alert is introduced, for help at home or on the go at the touch of a button.
The first Jitterbug smartphone is brought to market, with the latest in cell phone technology combined with our signature simplicity.
The Link caregiver app is introduced, allowing loved ones to get alerts on their smartphone if there's an emergency.
Easy-to-use Jitterbug phones celebrate 20 years of helping America's families age with confidence.

A life saver
I am really thankful that I purchased this. It has been a life saver. I was connected to someone right away when I pushed the button.
Peace of mind
I got this for my mother. So far, she hasn't needed to push the button, but it gives me peace of mind knowing if something happens, she will get help.
Makes perfect sense
Got this for my Mom. She's 91, and this makes perfect sense!
