Review: Great Series - In general, I have found books in the "for seniors" series by this publisher to be very well written. I first obtained a copy of this book from my local library. After reviewing the content, I decided it was a book that I wanted to have available for reference long term. I have found that it covers everything I wanted more information on. The writing style is one of the best I have encountered. Being able to review the book before purchase made it an easy choice for me. I have not been disappointed with my purchase. Review: Absolutely a life saver! - Thought I was smart enough to master my iPhone without help but this book was a life-saver. I discovered all kinds of things this amazing phone can do that I didn't know. Guess i should have asked my 4 year old granddaughter to teach me first, but the book has much better illustrations. It doesn't make you feel like a "dummy" and it's step by step with gorgeous illustrations.

catchin up with the new normal
The book has been a great reference for my wife as she learned to use her new iphone. Glad I picked it up for her. Some of the new technology is different and not easy to learn if you are behind the times or don't have friends that you can buddy up in learning.

Don't Buy: No Siri Instruction
How can you publish a book with "Suitable for iPhone 5, 4S. ...." when there is not even a mention if Siri in the book? Do they think Siri is intuitive? Far from it. That statement on the cover is nothing more than an outright lie put there as false advertising to sell an out of date book.

Easy to Understand
Bought this book for my husband because we are not tech savy and got tired of hearing "why'd that do that? how do you....? what does this mean?" Now I hear a lot of "ah has". Lots of pictures, easy to read, and step by step instructions.

Great
Still working my way through it, but very helpful for non-tech savvy adult. Pictures and text very plain and size of book is also helpful.

I got this for my 60 year old mother. She was offended by the title but boy did it do the trick. It worked so well she sends me photos of trivial things all the time. The number of "my morning coffee" messages I have gotten would make me never buy this book again. With the help of this book my mother came out of the dark ages and now texts, surfs and phones with all the millennials.

I Phone for Seniors
The book appears to be OK. I would have preferred more technical detail but used inconjunction with the Apple iPhone Manual, which you can down load from Apple for free, the two work well.
