Tablet not working correctly

Dale . 6 months ago

Will not let me make calls or message on it. Got internet and that's it.

TCL/Alcatel Mobile - 6 months ago

Hello, and thank you for your feedback. Unfortunately, the tablet is not designed to function as a phone. However, if you are using an app that enables calls or messaging over the internet, we recommend checking with the app provider for specific requirements. For instance, WhatsApp requires a phone number, while Facebook Messenger only requires an account. - Kevin.

Good but often needs to be restarted

Only really good for reading my Kindle books

Mimi1965 . 2 years ago

I have had this tablet for almost 3 months. The memory and storage are really bad. I don't have hardly any of the apps from my phone on the tablet and almost all of the space is taken. If I open more than 2 apps, it won't work because there's so little memory.

TCL/Alcatel Mobile - 2 years ago

Hello. Thank you for your feedback. There is 4GB of RAM and if there are too many apps opened in the background, the performance could reduce. Tap on the "recent apps" button, which looks like a three short lines, and then close the unused apps. As for the storage, use the file manager to see what is taking up the space. For additional storage, please consider added a microSD memory card. Feel free to call TCL mobile support if you need additional assistance: 1-855-224-4228. - Kevin.

It is easy to use. Bought it for my 93 yr old father in law and he can watch his church services now

DO NOT BUY

Tiberiu U . 2 years ago

At random times, this tablet glitches on videos on Netflix, Youtube, and Disney+. I went to the verizon store, and they recommended to change the sim card. It didn't help, but I'm traveling abroad and I'll be back after 2 months, so I can't return it. This is the worst deal I ever made.

TCL/Alcatel Mobile - 2 years ago

Please try to clear the cache storage on your app to see if this fixes the problem. To clear it, go to Settings > Apps, tap the app that your have problem with, and tap on the storage. Tap the "Clear cache" button to clear the cache. Best regards, Kevin.
