When it comes to older relatives using technology, the hardest challenge is finding them devices they'll actually use. Family Circle Magazine's Lynya Floyd joins Cheddar to reveal the easiest tech solutions for the senior loved ones in our lives. She discusses why the issue is so important as millennials get older, and become caregivers in their own right.
Floyd says it's always best to start with smartphones when thinking of the right tech for seniors. She recommends an easy-to-use device called Jitterbug. Technology can help make it easier for people to maintain their independence as they get older.
