Not all of us are tech wizards. In fact, some one of us — not naming any names — have trouble changing formatting settings in Word.
Apple, of course, gets that. Instead of leaving us tech-illiterates to sulk in the corner of the digital revolution, they’ve introduced a way to bring us onto playground and include us in the fun. It’s app building for dummies.
