I was just delighted and on my way to practice new found skills. My trainer was on time, friendly, knowledgeable, and very patient with this little old lady (age 78). I didn't have to take notes to remember - he recorded it on his tablet and sent me a copy to download so I have my instructions, step by step. So pleased with the service and the follow-up.

Best Technology for You | Aging with Technology
This October, we're diving into our "Aging with Technology" series, where we explore how the right tech can support and enhance your life as you age. In Week 3, we'll focus on what matters most when selecting technology that can make daily living more comfortable, safe, and enjoyable.
Key Considerations for Senior-Friendly Technology
When choosing technology to support you or your loved ones, keep these essential factors in mind:
1. Simplicity
Technology should make life easier, not more complicated. Look for user-friendly devices with large, easy-to-read buttons, simple controls, or even voice commands. The more intuitive the technology, the more likely it will become a helpful part of your routine.
2. Safety Features
Safety should always be a priority. Consider devices that offer built-in safety measures, such as fall detection, emergency alerts, or home monitoring systems. These tools provide peace of mind, knowing that help is always within reach.
3. Health Support
Technology can play a vital role in managing health. From medication reminders and health trackers to virtual doctor visits, there are many tools available that can help you stay on top of your well-being and keep you connected with healthcare professionals.
4. Staying Connected
As we age, staying in touch with loved ones becomes even more important. Technology that allows you to easily make video calls, send messages, or engage with family and friends on social media can help bridge the distance and keep relationships strong.
5. Comfort and Accessibility
Smart home technology can offer both convenience and accessibility. Devices that let you control lighting, adjust the thermostat, or monitor home security with ease can make your living environment more comfortable and tailored to your needs.
Why It Matters
Choosing the right technology isn't just about convenience—it's about maintaining independence, staying healthy, and staying connected to the people and things that matter most. The right tools can empower you to live confidently and age in place with ease.
Client Reviews
My tech from GoovyTek has been terrific. He is patient, knowledgeable, and explains things really well. I enjoyed learning new tools and features on my smart phone and computer. They have made doing things a lot easier and more enjoyable.

Michael M
I had a session with GroovyTek over the phone today. It was extremely helpful to me because I was able to see everything that he was doing on my computer as he was talking. I was then able to follow his actions to do what he was doing as well. What a way to go!
Carole M
Dear GroovyTek team, I thank you from the bottom of my heart for this very supportive and beneficial service you provide! I am so grateful!
Loretta J
Outstanding trainers with expertise and a lot of patience at a fair price. I have used them for two years and they have given me a much better understanding of the in's and outs of how to use many aspects of my computer. It is a pleasure to have them come to my home and work on my own computer problems.
Jerry P
Excellent help from our GroovyTek trainer. He spent an hour explaining issues that I was confronted with, on my computer, and corrected all my issues and problems. He was concise, knowledgeable and forthright and I will call on him and GroovyTek again whenever I need help and support. I highly recommend GroovyTek services!
Laura M
Spectacular people. Knowledgeable, professional, customer focused and easy to work with. I have used their services a couple of times (because I am over 40) and they are great to work with.
Jim H
A wonderful service in every aspect from calling in to set up an appointment with GroovyTek and follow ups as well as the fabulous help, patience and expertise of the tech who came to the house to work with me with my computer issues. I would highly recommend GrooveyTek for all your computer needs! Thanks so much!

I have had two great sessions with GroovyTek and finally I have learned to use my smartphone calendar! I'm looking forward to my next session.
Mary D
I think your service is great! I have used it, and I booked 2 sessions for my 83-year old husband who bought himself a new Ipad, but didn't know how to use it. He's been ill, so it was a great help that you came to the house. Thanks for the service.
Susan S
GroovyTek has helped me, a 65 year old, learn how to do all sorts of things on my computer that I did not know about before. I had no one else to ask, and they have rescued me. It's so great to have a polite, friendly, knowledgeable person come to my house and teach me. What a wonderful service!
Margie C
We have had several help sessions with a GroovyTek trainer. WE could not be more pleased. My trainer takes all our questions and while answering types up his answers so even after he leaves, we can refer to his notes. I would recommend GroovyTek to any of my friends or family without hesitation. BTW, ALL the employees at this firm are extrememly knowledgeable and friendly.
Tom D
The trainers are so friendly, and helpful. They certainly have lots of patience and knowledge. They make you feel so comfortable asking questions you would not dare ask your family to show you again how to do. They are always welcome in my home, sometimes I hate to see them go!

GroovyTek did a great job! My trainer was on time, professional and she solved my slow computer. Great job, GroovyTek! I will use your services again.
