A store protection plan covers the device. It does not cover you.

If it breaks, they replace it. That's the whole promise. It does nothing the day the printer won't talk to the laptop or a text shows up that doesn't look right.

Nerd on Call is $14.99/mo and covers the house, and the person trying to work it.

It is a punchline because it works. A restart clears out the clutter that piles up and slows computers down. Once a week keeps the gremlins out, and phones like it too.

A new phone, moved over properly: about 45 minutes.

Photos go first. Always. Then contacts, passwords, message threads, and the apps that matter, including the bank one.

Then every one gets opened and checked with you standing there before your Local Nerd calls it done. Inside the first hour, $110, at your own table.

A phone that dies by supper does not always need replacing. Batteries wear out after a few years, and that is normal. iPhone: Settings, Battery, Battery Health shows the real number. Under 80 percent? A new battery costs a whole lot less than a new phone.

Nobody knows what half of these do.

At some point a cable went in behind there and nobody's looked since. Now there are nine, and pulling the wrong one costs you an evening.

Your Local Nerd traces every one, labels what stays, coils what's left, and writes down which is which so the next person isn't guessing.

Those update reminders are not nagging, they are armor. Most break-ins walk through holes an update already patched. Turn on automatic updates, plug things in overnight, and let them do their job. Yes, the router too.

"Storage full" is not a reason to buy a new phone.

You're not out of phone. You're out of room. Your Local Nerd gets the photos somewhere safe, clears four years off the thing, and sets it up so it stops filling back up.

That's a visit, not an $800 decision. From $110.

Could you lose your phone today and keep every photo? Two-minute check. iPhone: Settings, your name, iCloud, Photos, make sure it says on. Android: Google Photos, tap your profile picture, backup on.

A printer that won't print: about 20 minutes.

Long enough for a cup of coffee. Not long enough to rearrange your afternoon around it.

We find what it lost, put it back, and make sure it prints from every device that needs it, not just the one we're standing at. The first hour is $110 and most jobs don't use all of it.

If your screen ever yells that you have a virus and shows a phone number to call, that popup is the scam. Apple and Microsoft never put phone numbers on your screen. Close the browser, and if it fights you, restart the computer.
