Q. Can you use it with AT&T or Sprint?
A. Sorry, no you can't. GreatCall uses the Verizon network. They used to have coverage through a bunch of different providers, but they decided to move over to Verizon to get consistent coverage.

GreatCall doesn't just provide phone service, they also provide additional services like live nursing advice, health and wellness tips, and a medication reminder service to come. It would be more difficult to deliver these services if the Jitterbug phones were activated on different networks.

Speaking in jargon, the Verizon network is a CDMA network while AT&T uses GSM phones, which makes them incompatible.
