I wish my 71yo dad was as proficient as your mom. He doesn't remember anything he doesn't do regularly.

For example, he texts frequently but doesn't know how to check his email. Because I am the tech support child, he reaches out to me for iPhone help. However, since I am not an iPhone user, I always struggle and sometimes fail to solve his problem.

Perhaps this is a sign I have not dedicated enough time to learning this new OS in my family ecosystem, but I do feel it is the least-similar to the other OS's I have used. It's like if my dad was learning programming and asked if I'd help him with his Lisp program. No thanks.

Though maybe I am just a luddite and the universe is written in iOS.

I've used computers all my life and I find iphones really difficult to use.

Not just unfamiliar, difficult.
