First of all, you've done an "Incredible" job on this Video; your time and effort is greatly appreciated my friend. I'm a 1st time i-PAD/MAC user, coming from "MANY" decades of Windows/Android, so it's a bit of a different world to me. Your explanations, of everything you covered, was extremely well done, and (very) easy to follow. You've saved me (and I'm sure' countless others) a massive amount of time getting acclimated to this new (for us) platform. Thank you again Thomas...

This is a very good video. I am 82 and an experienced PC user. This is exactly what I needed to get me started using my new iPad air. Thanks a ton!!

You are by far the best teacher for this IPad. Thank you

Hello Thomas, I'm about to teach my elderly mother how to use the ipad and your video has been a great help in setting up the "lesson plans". I thank you very much. One thing: While you dealt with the camera, you did not deal with the Photo App at all. You might wish to include that in your series. That is going to be a big thing for her and I suspect many of the seniors you are helping here! Thank you very much! marc

[johnsauer]

My girlfriend just bought an iPad and we are using your video to help get her set up. Thanks. Very helpful.

[kellyomahony]

Great video! I work with older adults. Your video helps me to organize what I will teach. Your introduction, too, is very thoughtful: how to slow down your voice, etc. Thank you!

I am 68 and just bought my iPad Pro with all of the bells and whistles 2 days ago to do my own book illustrations. I write children's books that build up their self-esteem and discuss bullying. I had been paying an illustrator to do them for me but decided to learn how to do them myself. This video is very informative. I look forward to learning more from you. Thank you

I have had a iPhone 6s Plus, and now have a an 11 pro max and treated myself to a iPad 9th gen and your video taught me a lot of things I didn’t know. You have an extremely comprehensive video here and also a reassuring nature Sir and I am extremely impressed with your approach and abilities. Well done and thank you for one of the best videos I’ve seen in the last 5 years of tutorials A+++ take care and thanks again

Thank you so much for this. I just bought an iPad for my dad's birthday (70+) and since I just got an iPhone for the first time in my life this year, I'm not at all versed with MACs/iPads. This will help me considerably learn the basics before I gift him the iPad later this week. Hopefully, I can share this vid with him as well to brush up on the basics. Cheers mate!

Oh and thank you for the voice speed tip. Very considerate of you :)
