Welcome to Silver Tech Tips
Simple tech. Smarter living. Especially for Seniors.
Hi there,
I’m so glad you’re here.
If you’ve ever looked at your phone and thought:
“Why did the screen change?”
“What’s this update thing?”
“How do I join this doctor appointment online?”
You’re not the only one. And you’re not behind.
You just haven’t had someone break it down in a way that actually makes sense.
That’s where I come in.
What is Silver Tech Tips?
Silver Tech Tips is your guide to using everyday technology with confidence. I created this newsletter for older adults who want to stay connected, safe, and informed, without feeling overwhelmed.
Every week, you’ll get short, friendly lessons delivered to your inbox. Each one is written in plain English with step-by-step directions.
Here’s what you can expect:
How to stop spam calls and fake text messages
Which apps are helpful — and which ones to delete
How to make your phone easier to use
Simple ways to protect your privacy online
Answers to the tech questions you were too embarrassed to ask
Example: Blocking Spam Calls
Let’s say your phone keeps ringing with numbers you don’t recognize.
You’ll get a guide that shows you:
How to tell if a call or text is a scam
What buttons to press to block the number
How to adjust your phone’s settings to cut down on junk calls
What not to click when a suspicious message shows up
And if you’d rather listen, you’ll get an audio version too
It’s like having a patient, tech-savvy friend walk you through it because that’s what I’m here to be.
How Often Will You Hear From Me?
As a free subscriber, you’ll get:
One simple tech tip every Tuesday
Easy-to-follow directions in plain language
Helpful answers to real questions from real people like you
That’s more than enough to get started — and you can learn at your own pace.

You can unlock bonus tips, videos, and printable guides for just $1/month or more.
It’s completely optional, and every bit helps keep this mission going.

Take a look around — read a few past tips, and ask a question if something’s been bugging you
And if you ever want more help — videos, cheat sheets, or live Q&As — you can always join one of the support tiers.
Either way, I’m just glad you’re here.
