How do I get set up for video calls with family who live far away?
What’s likely going on
The tools themselves (FaceTime, Zoom, or similar) are usually simpler than they look — the friction is almost always in the one-time setup and figuring out which app the people on the other end actually use, not in the calling itself.
Is this a DIY job or worth calling someone?
A one-time setup session, matched to whichever app your family actually uses, with the steps written down simply afterward, is genuinely all it takes — this isn't something that requires ongoing tech skill once it's set up right the first time.
