PHOTOS

Tuesday, January 26 —Webex Meeting at 6:30pm

Almost all of us use the Photos application on their computer or mobile device. Some of us just go in there from time to time to have a look around and retrieve a photo to show someone. Others organize, categorize, tag, share folders, edit their photos and even make slide shows and photo books. We're going to spend some time talking about the ways we use the software, features you might not have known you had and help you with any issues you're experiencing.

Members, check your email for the announcement from MailChimp for the meeting login information.

See you then!

ELECTRONIC PAYMENTS

Tuesday, February 23 —Webex Meeting at 6:30pm

Do you use the Wallet app? If not, do you know what it's for? How about Apple Pay? What's the difference between Apple Pay and the Apple Card? Maybe you need to send money to a friend or relative in a hurry. These days Western Union isn't the most popular choice. If you need to send cash now you'll probably hear names like Zelle, Paypal and Venmo. These various methods of electronic payment have a lot of advantages, but some work a little differently than their counterparts. Some charge fees, whereas others are free (or free in certain circumstances). Join us as we navigate the options available for making payments or sending money over your mobile devices.

See you then!

HOME AUTOMATION

Tuesday, March 23 —Webex Meeting at 6:30pm

Home automation - what is it? It can be anything from timers on your outdoor Christmas decorations to living in the "house of the future." It doesn't necessarily mean rewiring your house or spending thousands of dollars. There are simple devices you can purchase inexpensively that could make your life easier. For instance, turning on a lamp that's hard to reach. We'd like to hear what experience you've had, then several of our members who have embraced the technology will share their experiences.

See you then!

iOS TIPS APP

Tuesday, May 25 —Webex Meeting at 6:30pm

It's that time again...dues are payable for the 2021-2022 season! Cynthia sent out invoices this week. If you didn't receive one please let us know.

The Tips app can be a great resource for those who enjoy learning new ways to get the most out of their user experience. The app is available on your iPhone and iPad. Once you open the app you'll be shown a few new additions to the Tips library. Below are more focused options if you're searching for help in a more specific area like Photography, Siri or Privacy. If you've never looked at it before, go ahead and open it up between now and the meeting and just poke around a bit. Then during the meeting you can let us know if you find anything helpful worth sharing.

We had meetings in June, August, September, October and November and a Holiday Party in December. Sorry for the lack of posts.
