Burr Ridge · In-home & remote support
Tech help for your parents and grandparents.
Tech Made Simple is a small local service that helps families with Wi-Fi, TVs, phones, computers, and basic online safety—calmly, clearly, and without judgment.
Our main goal is simple: make technology at home feel easier and safer.
Run by a local student who has spent years helping neighbors and family with their technology and online safety.
Common things we fix
- Wi-Fi that doesn’t reach every room.
- TVs that say “no signal” or lose Netflix/YouTube.
- Phones and tablets full of confusing pop-ups.
- Sign-in and password issues that won’t go away.
Services we offer

Setup and troubleshooting for TVs, soundbars, and streaming apps, with remotes made as simple as possible.

How it works
Call or text
You briefly explain what’s going on at home. We ask a few simple questions and suggest an in-home or remote visit.
We visit or connect
During the visit, we sit side-by-side, explain what we’re doing, and move at a pace that feels comfortable for your parent or grandparent.
Things work, next steps clear
We leave things working, write down any important steps if helpful, and discuss whether you want ongoing support such as Scam Shield.
