Simplifying iPhone experience

My grandma recently upgraded from the se2016 to the iPhone 11 and is having a difficult time figuring out the swipe gestures along with that she can’t see well. I am looking for ways to simplify her ui & make it so there’s less places she can accidentally end up. Any suggestions are appreciated (I’ve already done things like increase text size display zoom etc)

iPhone 11 Pro, iOS 15
