user friendly
A system that is easy to learn and easy to use. In the past, this term was so abused in the software business that vendors became reluctant to use it today. Except for mobile phone applications, which due to their tiny screens forces developers to design concisely, a great amount of desktop software is downright "user hostile." It is the rarest of desktop applications that can be used by someone immediately who has never worked with a similar program. See user interface.
user friendly [′yü·zər ′frend·lē]
(computer science)
Property of a system that is easy for an untrained person to use and sets up an easily understood dialog between the user and the computer.
