Smart Phones Made Easy for Non-Native Users Through New Tech Rollout

A new technology rollout makes the use of handheld mobile devices easier for those who are not native users of smart phone technology.  

The implications for older smart phone users could be substantial in that they allow a user to reconfigure the smart phone user interface providing simplicity and customization.

Wiser Simple Launcher overcomes a key barrier-to-entry for mobile devices by making them simpler, all while maintaining their key functionality.”
