Trusted lists
Together we build the lists of trusted people, businesses and numbers: family, friends, doctors, pharmacy, bank and church.

Set up and practice
We install and configure everything, then practice with the senior until it feels easy, with large print and simple steps.

Family stays in the loop
The family gets alerts and an easy way to approve new contacts, and we handle changes whenever they’re needed.

Scam Text Protection for Seniors FAQs
Will they miss real texts?
Texts from saved contacts arrive normally. Unknown senders go to a separate list that’s easy to check, and we save the numbers that matter at setup.
What’s 7726?
It spells SPAM. Forwarding a scam text to 7726 reports it to the major U.S. carriers for free.
Will Mom still get email from new people she wants to hear from?
Yes. Anyone can be added to her approved list in seconds, by her or by a family member, and their email shows up from then on.
Does call screening block doctors and pharmacies?
Not if they’re on the approved list, and we add them at setup. Unknown callers can be asked to say who they are, so a new doctor’s office can still get through or leave a message.
