Jitterbug on Echo Dot?

[rallypoint]

Hi, all.

Just purchased several Dots for my 84-year old mother-in-law. It is setup, but now we need to setup the calling. She has a Jitterbug phone. We have iPhones, but used a laptop to do the inital setup.

We understand to setup calling we need to download the ios app. But, can we sync the Dot with her Jitterbug, or do we need to get her an Echo Connect for her landline.


Thanks,
Ron

Ah, left out the most important info.... it's a flip-phone.

I don't think you can set up calling on a flip phone. And yes you need connect for landline calls. If she did have smartphone though, she can do calling there without a need for landline and echo connect. So you have a choice to make.
