Simple Music Player for Mom
Hi, was wondering if anyone had any experience with the Simple Music Player (also Simpl) from the Alzheimer store? Mom has a particular song she will listen to over and over; however, it is on YouTube and I have to put it on a device for her to listen to (thank goodness for repeat). These seem pretty easy, but they come with prerecorded music, which she most likely wouldn't want to listen to, especially if she was really wanting to hear the song she loves. I noticed it said you can add your own using an MP3 (which I'm not familiar how to do), but wasn't sure if we'd be able to be sure that song was the only song to play when she lifted the lid.
Anyone have ideas or experience with this?
Thanks so much!

I have seen this device; however I use a music app on the smart tv in my mother’s bedroom to play her favorite music. The app will play for hours and it is a music app that I had previously subscribed to.

Note if you have access to an old phone that no longer is used for phone calls it can still be used to play songs in it's library.

I bought one of these for my partner to use in MC and downloaded a lot of music to it that I thought she would like. But even with a simple "on/off" button she can't use it and constantly unplugs it. We use it sometimes when I'm with her, that's it.
