Not on an old iPhone.. poor execution

Touted as a use for “old” iPhones.. not quite correct. No place does it state you must use iOS 15 or higher. Cant update older phones to that iOS so it’s useless. It’s somewhat difficult to get them paired and working. Not intuitive, menus are marginal at best. Nothing is explained or defined. Finally did get a phone connected to an iPad but took a while and some experimenting. Not worth the subscription price. Works so so for the free version. Better off just getting a blink or ring. Phone need to be continuously plugged in so it WILL destroy the battery. Great idea but poor execution.
