Give the best Mother’s Day gift of all: tech support

In case it slipped your mind, Mother’s Day is today, Sunday May 10th, 2015. If you forgot the card and flowers, we have a last-minute gift idea: do some spring cleaning on your mom’s gadgets and gear. To help, we’ve gathered some of our best recent tech how-to’s. If she’s a brand new Apple Watch owner, spend some time getting it set up. If she’s already an expert, recommend some more apps — and turn off the most obnoxious notifications. Back up the awkward childhood photos that have been languishing in iCloud. Hack the family Keurig coffee maker with scissors and tape. Give her a crash course in Snapchat. Or if she’s more tech savvy than you are, teach her a little-known trick to make her online accounts more secure.
