Join us each month on every fourth Tuesday from 2:00 – 3:00 PM for an additional Senior Planet lecture or workshop designed to help adults learn new skills, make new friends, and so much more. Each session will cover a different topic, offering practical tips and hands-on learning.

The topic for this week's workshop is Managing Privacy Settings on Your iPhone.

With so much to explore online, it’s important to keep in mind some basic precautions that everyone can take to safeguard the privacy of their online activities. In this workshop, we’ll learn about the built-in privacy features of the Safari app, as well as the iPhone's other privacy settings. We’ll explore Safari's Private mode and look at how to manage app permissions and tracking on an iPhone. Please bring your own iPhone to class.

This workshop includes hands-on practice and requires an iPhone. iPhones will not be provided.

This presentation is a part of the Senior Planet Licensing curriculum provided by Senior Planet from AARP.
