GBI have been very impressed by Techless… I have been very impressed by Techless and I really like my Wisephone! They are working tirelessly to create a healthier phone for both kids and adults. Techless is super receptive to feedback and I am sure that the Wisephone will just keep getting better than it already is.

GBI really want to love this phone! I really want to love this phone!! However, there are so many little inconveniences that they should have worked out which would not detract from the phone simplicity such as....tiny font with no way to make bigger, no phone number when pulling up a destination on maps, can't forward a pic; no favorites in contacts..touch screen flickers or cuts out...seems glitchy....these are minor annoyances and I wish that they would fix. I am giving them 3 more months then I'll have to find an alternative;.

GBAmazing Customer Service Their customer service team is stellar! I reached out asking about whether I could side load some medical apps I need for my daily life and my contact Kyle was amazing. He was very human, compassionate and empathetic, as well as very open and informative about where the company is right now about my issue and what things they are considering in the future. They may or may not ever get to side loaded health apps, but they have won a convert from me for their creative and very needed concept as well as for their flawlessly executed customer care. I'll be looking to join the WisePhone family when the new version comes out for my teens and hoping there may be a way for me to join in the future too!

GBFunctionally, so-so / Concept, wonderful! Functionally, the Wisephone can be glitchy at times and I wish there we more options as far as settings on the phone (i.e. I wish I could have sound on for notifications, but turn off sound for navigating within the phone--right now its all or nothing for sound). A couple other things are that the keyboard calabor isn't nearly as precise as the iPhone and I find myself making alot more typos. The main issue I have though is the size. I really wish this phone was smaller (like some of the older iPhones). I prefer the flip phone in that it's smaller (I forget about it more, which I want, plus it can fit in any pocket). As far as the Wisephone concept goes, The Wisephone is a wonderful tool that's helped me live more freely. One of the first things I noticed after making the switch was that I did more purposeful activities to fill my day. I'm finding myself taking the time to prepare and cook yummy meals from scratch most days, reading more books in the last year than I have since I was a kid, spending my bits of down time tidying the house or taking a real breather rather than scrolling my phone. It's been wonderful slowing down and simplifying my life--it's crazy how big a difference not having a smart-phone makes! Thank you Techless!

GBOnly improve: Missed Calls and Voicemails Only downside is that I will not be notified of missed calls and voicemails unless I look through call log and/or dial my voicemail box.
