There's nothing like seeing a grandchild's face light up on your screen — and it's easier than most people expect. This book walks you through video calls in plain language: picking the one app your family already uses (FaceTime, WhatsApp, Zoom, or Google Meet), making your first call step by step, fixing the common glitches, and even adapting calls for hearing or vision difficulties with captions and Bluetooth hearing aids.

The second half keeps those calls safe. You'll learn to spot fake video and impersonation — including the "grandchild in trouble" scam — with a family code word that defeats it instantly. Privacy settings, camera covers, group holiday calls, and a starter checklist round out the book, so you can call confidently and recognize anything suspicious.
