Hi Eileen, Glad your setup went well.
Setting up Face recognition isn't that hard. The first time you do it, it may feel impossible, but if you pay close attention to what your phone is telling you, you can probably do it yourself with little trouble. someone else posted on the list to remember to make small movements with your head. That turned out to be very helpful. I started with a small movement, and if that wasn't sufficient, the phone would say something like "Turn your head up." I would then know that I needed to move it further in the direction the phone was indicating. Just thought I'd mention this in case you want to give it a try.
