Today, we’ll be discussing ways you can use your personal technology to help you stay informed and entertained, whether you want to keep up with the daily news cycle, virtually tour museums you wish you could visit in person or you want to start streaming new documentaries and shows through Netflix. We’re facing new challenges, including more time spent at home and less money to spend. The accessibility and reach of our personal technology devices can improve our capacity to deal with these lifestyle changes.
In today’s session, called Staying Informed and Entertained, we’ll be discussing the different apps and services we can utilize to stream movies, television, music, and radio. We’ll also be talking about podcasts, virtual opportunities for arts and culture, and more.
The first one we’re going to talk about is Prime Video. It’s an app where you can stream TV shows and movies and it’s free with an Amazon Prime membership. Netflix provides an array of TV shows, movies, and more with an impressive library and great Netflix originals. YouTube TV is a live TV service that allows you to stream live cable television with other 70+ channels. Finally, Disney+ is the best of Disney, Pixar, Marvel, Star Wars, and National Geographic all under one streaming service. In this new era, it appears to be the streaming services that are in a position to become the new power brokers in Hollywood.
We’ll also talk about podcast platforms like Stitcher, Laughable, and Overcast, as we have seen a large rise in interest in this form of audio content. We’ll cover music streaming services such as Amazon Music, Apple Music, Spotify, and Pandora. And, if you’re interested in virtual reality, we’re also covering popular offerings like artists streaming their concerts and 3D museum tours.
GroovyTek has helped me, a 65 year old, learn how to do all sorts of things on my computer that I did not know about before. I had no one else to ask, and they have rescued me. It's so great to have a polite, friendly, knowledgeable person come to my house and teach me. What a wonderful service!

Spectacular people. Knowledgeable, professional, customer focused and easy to work with. I have used their services a couple of times (because I am over 40) and they are great to work with.

My tech is patiently bringing me (at age 79) into the computer age. I am so glad that I found him through GroovyTek. What a wonderful gift!
Judy K
I was just delighted and on my way to practice new found skills. My trainer was on time, friendly, knowledgeable, and very patient with this little old lady (age 78). I didn't have to take notes to remember - he recorded it on his tablet and sent me a copy to download so I have my instructions, step by step. So pleased with the service and the follow-up.

I have been very pleased with the IT trainers from GroovyTek who have been to my house. They were very helpful!

The trainers are so friendly, and helpful. They certainly have lots of patience and knowledge. They make you feel so comfortable asking questions you would not dare ask your family to show you again how to do. They are always welcome in my home, sometimes I hate to see them go!

I was so pleased to find GroovyTek. Although I am pretty tech savvy in some areas there are others where I need help. GroovyTek has helped me fill in that gap of information. I made an appointment to help me sync my devices and also help me learn how to organize my photos. The trainer was knowledgeable and able to explain things very clearly.

My tech from GoovyTek has been terrific. He is patient, knowledgeable, and explains things really well. I enjoyed learning new tools and features on my smart phone and computer. They have made doing things a lot easier and more enjoyable.
Jennifer H
I have always had the best computers that Apple offered, but the problem was that I never knew how to use them. Thanks to my GroovyTek trainer, my tech skills have increased exponentially and I am feeling more competent and confident with each lesson.
John B
We have had several help sessions with a GroovyTek trainer. WE could not be more pleased. My trainer takes all our questions and while answering types up his answers so even after he leaves, we can refer to his notes. I would recommend GroovyTek to any of my friends or family without hesitation. BTW, ALL the employees at this firm are extrememly knowledgeable and friendly.

I'm very pleased with my session today with GroovyTek. My trainer was able to fix both my computer and my printer (problems with both) and instructed me on how to correct the issues if they occurred in the future. We also made plans for my next session. I find GroovyTek sessions extremely helpful and convenient since they are in my home.
Eva S
Today was my first experience with GroovyTek and it was extraordinary. I learned so much over the course of the hour AND as importantly fixed the problem I was having. The trainer was intelligent and friendly. All support was given in a very collaborative way. I am looking forward to this partnership.
Barb S
I have had two great sessions with GroovyTek and finally I have learned to use my smartphone calendar! I'm looking forward to my next session.
