⚠️ Before entering personal information online, make sure you’re on the real website.

A good example is the Social Security Administration website: ssa.gov. When you need to access Social Security services, look for the official government website rather than clicking on a link from an unexpected email or text.

1. Open your web browser.
2. Type the website address yourself when possible.
3. Check that the address is correct before entering any personal information.
4. Be cautious of websites that ask for information unexpectedly.

When in doubt, take a moment to check the website before you continue. 🔒

Is your device always telling you that storage is full? 📱 Don’t worry—there are a few simple ways to free up space.

Try these 3 tips:

1. Delete photos and videos you don’t need, like duplicates or blurry shots. You can also back up your photos to iCloud or Google Photos before deleting them from your device.

2. Remove apps you rarely use. If you need one again later, you can usually reinstall it and sign back in.

3. Check what’s using the most storage. Go to Settings and search for “Storage” to see which categories are taking up the most space.

A little cleanup can make a big difference! 💡

Unknown number + unexpected link? 🚨 Pause before you tap.

Scam texts can look like delivery updates, account warnings, or urgent requests. The goal is to get you to click before you have time to think.

When a message feels suspicious:

1. Pause.
2. Don’t click the link.
3. Check with someone you trust.

Know someone who could use this reminder? Share it with them. 💡

Technology changes fast—but you don’t have to figure it all out at once. 💡📱

Here are 4 simple ways to feel more confident keeping up with technology:

1. Take it one step at a time.
Focus on one feature or task instead of trying to learn everything at once.

2. Keep your devices updated.
Updates can add helpful features and make things easier to use.

3. Write down what you learn.
Keep a simple list of helpful steps and solutions so you can refer back to them later.

4. Ask questions.
Reach out to a trusted friend, family member, or tech professional when you need help. There’s no need to figure it out alone. 😊

Technology should feel empowering, not overwhelming.
