Info

The remote session is not intended to take the place of our face to face on site sessions, but there are many cases where a remote session could be perfect for you, and we do our best to make it an easy, helpful and fun experience!

The session is primarily for an Apple computer/s and will require a good internet connection. Of course there may be questions concerning other Apple devices such as an iPhone or iPad and in many cases we may be able to assist. Where possible we will use the built in Apple screen sharing and/or Apple FaceTime video or audio, otherwise a simple phone call may be all that’s required.  Please take the time to read the information below.

All remote sessions are by appointment (just like our in person sessions) and must be booked using our very quick and easy Remote Enquiry Form here.  If you're having trouble doing this please feel free to call us and we can go through the details over the phone 0412 422 820. If you’ve had a remote session within the last 4 weeks and your circumstances (eg. same devices, location, internet etc.) have not changed then simply contact us direct to check availability here.
