Phone for Shaky Hands: Tremor Protection on Android

With shaking hands, a finger often slides, taps twice or brushes the screen and opens the wrong thing. Easy Phone’s Touch and tremor settings fix this.

The three tremor levels

• No tremor: normal touches. A second tap on the same button is ignored for a moment.
• Light tremor: a small slide still counts as a tap, very short brushes are ignored and accidental double taps are ignored for 1.2 seconds.
• Strong tremor: you choose by holding. The finger stays on the button until the circle fills; slides and brushes never open anything.

Let the phone find the right level

1. Open the family settings (hold the Family key for 2 seconds) and go to Touch and tremor.
2. In Try it, let your relative tap the three circles a few times, as usual.
3. Easy Phone counts slipped, double and too-short touches and shows a suggestion.
4. Tap Use this level.
