Jio Phone is an option but so is placing direct call shortcuts on the homescreen.

thanks buddy. i completely forgot about that shortcut option. will ask her to try.
Jio phone was always an option but few days back when I saw slightly bigger screen Jivi model with keypad, i thought it could be a better option.

I would not suggest to buy such phones which have no reviews from reputed sources.

thanks for the help. I will ask her to try again and if she is comfortable then I will get her Redmi 5A or Nokia 1.
