All participants showed overall satisfaction. All found calling very easy. Participants alternated between use of right
arrow and enter button. Difficulties following the cursor. Irrelevant topics and ratings. Secondary sort or filter. Map needs scrolling and zooming. Participants wanted directions to the location. Some users will definitely ignore prompts.
