    Wer liest solche Bücher?


    Und wenn niemand liest, warum lesen sie es dann?

      My neighbor. She is a 78 year old cool Oma.

      (She has a book on some android phone, but you get the idea).

      There are older people who start to get more interested in tech. What’s so bad about offering them something that meets them halfway through a more familiar medium?

      Haha ive seen those in barnes n noble in California. Ooo that was over 10-15 yrs ago. Crazy they still make those; internationally too

      I think elderly people would read it. I would really appreciate such people because they make the effort to understand technology rather than perhaps pooh-poohing it.

      I am pretty sure my Grandma (82) has a book like that. Not about Iphone 17 – but about the Ipad we gifted her some years ago.

      Non tech savvy people, but tbh there’s nothing wrong about people who want to learn something about any tech related thing that way

      I work at an IT Service Desk and ngl It’d be handy (pun unintended) to have that lying around somewhere

      Older people. There are generations who learned how to do most mechanical stuff as “step one, step two, step three” who find it exceptionally hard later in life to read the screen and deduce what path they need to take, because they didn’t learn like that in school and their young lives.

      I used to have no patience or understanding for it, working in a phone shop in my 20’s, but now I’m in my late 30’s and never got exposed to Mac and my wife keeps trying to force our only computer being a Mac and it brings me out in a cold sweat.

      Take a Look at local institutions for adult learning (like VHS). They have tons of courses teaching people how to use a PC or smartphone.

      I have taught my grandma like 20 times how to use her phone. Got her a book like this and she got it.

      Older people are used to learn things step by step and out of books. Also she could read things she needed to know „right now“ by herself without waiting until she can ask me and forgot what she wanted to ask me 🙂

      My grandparents. They didn’t grow up with it and are just not used to it. Happens in every generation… barely anyone my age knows how to fix moth holes or a ripped hem, but we know how to use an iPhone or tech in general

      Everything Tech was very komplex, and you didn’t get far with a Trial and Error Approach.

      Where us digital natives would just try and see what happens, old people need a guide. If they don’t have kids or grandkids to teach them, how would they learn?

      There are people who are not so common to Smartphones, changes. Not everyone is an Autodidact. These people need written Docs to learb what they can do.

      Honestly, tutorials or manuals on Smartphones can be a terrible experience for some people.

      Someone dived into iOS for the first time, knows the basics, to making a call, sending messages, installing the needed apps, taking pictures, etc.

      Now that person wants to send a picture to a friend or family member. And all of a suden, the screen fades out, a new window, covering the full screen, tells you something like „Did you know, you can merge and send…“. The person just wants to send a picture with a message. Just a f… picture! That person klicks through the tutorial, ignoring everything only to send the f… picture.

      This experience may happen multiple times. For people who want to use a Software/OS, those books are great. They explain the fundamentals, and offering task, the person can do to get acquinted with the Software.

      As a rule of thumb, if you don’t understand why something was made, it’s probably not made for you
