USER-FRIENDLY

examples

  1. (customer to salesperson)
    The software package I'm using now is way too complicated. Do you have something a little more user-friendly?
  2. (manufacturer's press release)
    Our new digital camera has all the features necessary to satisfy the serious photographer, but is affordable and user-friendly enough for the mass market.
  3. It's one of the most user-friendly manuals I've seen. Even a child can understand it.
