When helping someone else, start with a few high-value basics:

• a screen lock
• updated apps
• known contacts
• a small trusted communication circle
• a family call-back rule for urgent messages

This is where the connection course and scam course meet.

What to do:

• set up the safety basics before teaching every extra feature
• keep the setup simple enough to remember
• write down the most important steps if helpful
