    Sounds ok.

    But limiting. My grandma is still able to learn and think.

    She currently uses a table and a phone. Android, set up by me and locked down as much as possible.

    One home screen, with the apps she wants on one half od the screen, and a widget that shows notifications on the other half. (Limited only to notifications from apps like whatsapp, etc.)

      I would eliminate the “features and benefits” by turning off notifications on the home screen… The phone goes boop then she goes to the messages cause it has a unique sound and check their message. Almost all the other goofy apps, unless it’s messaging, I turn off the notifications. For me, the best approach is eliminating variables. But this is all relative to the needs and desires of each unique individual. But I think eliminating variables is the best approach. Unless they get curious about something and ask questions, then you can expand off of the basics.
