I absolutely agree about the problem of just telling people to Google something due to my own experience. I can get over 90 per cent of what I want that way and have been doing it for years; but I have found that; sometimes I just don’t get the wording quite right and it can take several attempts to find what I’m looking for. All the best Angie

A couple additional suggestions could be helpful. If there is a community college nearby they may also have a tech basics course. Also check your public library to see if the reference librarian can find current books or connect with other local resources or classes they may have. Ideally these would include an intro to adaptive technology should the need to ask for that come up, as it often does in the senior, or not so senior population. One thing I found is that sometimes even if these resources exist, it can be difficult for to some to physically get to these programs. Everyone needs to remember it does no good to tell someone just to Google it if they don’t know how. In that job I often found myself teaching a little Computer 101 to people who had trouble distinguishing a title bar from an address bar, and who barely knew how to make a phone call with their device.

But, if he can wait until iOS 18 is released, which is probably next Tuesday, September 10, he will be able to record them from within the phone app and then have a transcript saved in the notes app. I don’t know if any of the beta testers have tried this yet assuming it is available in the beta already. I don’t put betas on my iPhone, or I would have tested it by now. Thanks, Richard, USA "INTROVERTS UNITE ...
