General questions
What is The Phone?
The Phone is a phone. Simply a phone. Except that our phone has the look and ease of use of a smartphone, without the excesses: no internet or social networks. It is a modern and non-addictive means of communication, suitable for both young and old!
There are already touch-tone phones that do the job very well. Why choose The Phone?
No! ThePhone is for everyone: children, adults looking to disconnect, and seniors looking for a simple and secure phone. It's ideal as a first phone or a second device to stay reachable without internet.

Why choose The Phone?
The Phone is THE solution to the eternal argument between parents and children: “Put down your phone”, “No phone at the table”, “Turn off the sound”… By choosing The Phone for your children, you protect them from addiction and exposure to unwanted content.
Why not put a camera/music?
It was a difficult choice for The Phone at the beginning of our story: what features did we have to include? And the more we added, the more we realized that we were moving away from our initial goal and that we didn't want to create a half-smartphone.
So the first model is deliberately purist and focuses exclusively on what makes communication valuable: calling and writing.
To remain attractive to children a little longer and therefore further delay the age of access to the first smartphone, our models will evolve and subsequently integrate certain functionalities, without denying our origins and therefore without deviating towards what smartphones offer.
From the 6th grade onwards, children need a smartphone to access Pronote and certain homework given at school. Wouldn't the Phone be limiting?
They are very smart, the future middle school students who explain to their parents that the smartphone is "mandatory" when entering 6th grade because they will have to do their homework on Pronote ... if Pronote does require Internet access, this can very well be done on another medium: computer, tablet. At least you will be certain that they will not be disturbed during their homework by notifications from applications ...
Is The Phone a phone exclusively for children?
The Phone was designed to appeal to everyone, although the most urgent people who needed an alternative to the smartphone were children.
Any adult who wants to take some time to disconnect, in the evening, on weekends or on vacation, can have The Phone as a second phone to stay reachable in case of emergency but without being tempted by notifications or other suggestions from their smartphone.
And we are also convinced that seniors will quickly become interested in The Phone: for its ease of use and protection against cyber-scams of which they are the main victims.
Which carriers can I use my The Phone with?
The Phone is unlocked for all carriers! You can choose the plan of your choice, depending on where you are and your preferred carrier. Keep in mind that no data is required to use The Phone: an unlimited call and text plan is more than enough! The Phone also works with prepaid cards.

Does The Phone charge like other phones (USB C)?
Yes, The Phone uses a USB-C port for charging, similar to many other smartphones.
Does The Phone have better battery life than other smartphones?
Yes, The Phone is designed to offer a longer battery life than traditional smartphones thanks to its high-capacity battery, software optimizations and, above all, the fact that it will be used much less often than a smartphone. Enough to respond favorably to the anxiety that increases proportionally to the battery level that drops.
