When the cell phone rings, the VTech phone rings. If you are within 30 feet of the base and your cell phone is near the base, the phone works well for incoming and outgoing calls. No matter how many times we read the manual and redid the steps necessary for the answering machine element to work, it will not record calls nor will it let us know if we have had any calls. We still need to consult our cell phone for that

My mom has a Captel wired phone for hearing impaired but it is not near her bed. The Captel works great, but is not convenient. She can't get out of bed and across the room fast enough to answer the phone, so everyone stopped calling. I bought this phone in the hope that she could hear on it without her hearing aids and it would help her be more connected to family who can't visit now because of COVID-19
