We’ve been thrilled to be able to offer one-of-a-kind online programming for our members and participants over the last 4 weeks! We’re even more pleased to hear all of your positive feedback:
“I’m writing regarding the Senior Planet session I took on Learning How to Shop Online. The instructor was excellent. Very clear, very patient with questions. Very upbeat and encouraging to participants. I loved that he was very hands on.”
“The best part was the combination of feeling less isolated as we shelter in place, and feeling that I am doing my body good.”
“This was my first online exercise class and [it] was simply wonderful. So friendly. Been now over 10 days in my apartment alone while working remotely. Can’t thank you enough for this class and I’ll definitely participate in more.”
Now, in addition to our online programming, we’re offering a new service…

Hello. I wonder if you are familiar with Zapier.
My goal is to take anything I receive from Email/Gmail and transfer it to my Open Office for modification.
Hi Jan! Give us a call and we’ll see what we can do.
Lately I attend few Zoom meetings. We sing one by one. When other sing I can see them in the middle of the screen, but when I sing my face is up in the other photos not in the middle of screen why? I know mute/unmute, video/no video, join/leave meeting etc. Is main host in charge of showing someone in the middle of the screen ? Do I touch Invite ?
Hi Van! Please give our Tech Hotline a call at 920-666-1959. One of our trainers should be able to trouble shoot with you.
Wondering if you could advise me on getting a new cell phone. Mine died I had a Samsung Galaxy 3. What is important is texting. email. photos.Google news. apps. It was not a senior phone by description. It can be in the low range of cost. I don’t want an expensive one. Is an apple better than a samsung or other?
Hi Betty! Please give our National Tech Hotline (920-666-1959) a call and one of our trainers can speak with you about this. We’re open Monday through Friday, 9am – 5pm EDT.
Thanks!
Trying to get on Zoom but think my uploading the Mac iOS file may be causing problems getting to a meeting I want to join. Possible?
Hi Pat- We’ll need a little more information to answer this question. Feel free to call the hotline to troubleshoot this issue with one of our trainers. Thanks!
I am hearing impaired. Is there a way to contact your Tech Hotline via text rather than phone ? Thank you for your time.
Hi Barbara- You can email your question to [email protected] and we will connect you with a trainer to help you out. Thanks!
*Thank you* for the tech hotline, can’t wait to try it!
On the minus side, fine to teach online shopping in general, but personally I’m inclined to abandon Amazon. I heard a piece on NPR investigative program Reveal that was really damning re treatment of employees and related abuses. I must be able to shop somewhere more socially responsible!
