    Everyday Tech Challenges for Seniors

    Technology can be a challenge and almost like navigating through a maze for our seniors, it's important to lend a hand and educate them on how to utilize it.

    Digital Illiteracy

    Struggling to send an email or use a messaging app? It's more common than you think and can make you feel disconnected. One way to get back in the loop is to enroll in a beginner's tech class or even have a tech-savvy grandkid give you a one-on-one tutorial.

    Confusing Interfaces

    Modern devices often seem like they were designed to be puzzling. If you find yourself scratching your head more than tapping and swiping, maybe it's time to look for gadgets and apps that prioritize ease of use. There are 'senior-friendly' options out there that focus on simplicity.

    Missed Opportunities

    How to Facetime your grandkids in college so you can keep in touch with them.

    Don't miss out on a video call with the grandkids or a virtual doctor's appointment because tech got in the way. A good first step is to have someone walk you through the initial setup. Once you're comfortable, you'll be less likely to miss these important moments.
