Best mobile phone for elderly mum

Options
Hello,


I desperately need recommendation for a mobile phone model for my elderly mum. Her vision is very poor and she is struggling to use touch screen for messages ,she says she cant see letters clearly. I need something with big buttons, but because she is living abroad alone an option to have Viber or Whats up is essential. As well is GPS :( Could anyone please recommend me smthg?

    AFIK these apps only work on a smart phone? She might be better with a tablet and increase the text size to maximum.

    She might want to ask for advice in her nearest mobile phone shop. There is one on every street corner in Spain.
