I'm an IT professional with my first iPad (3rd gen). I use my iPad for almost everything. I primarily bought it because I have to spend a lot of time at my father's nursing home and it has become a fantastic way to keep his memory sharp. He loves looking at the photos of our family and pets, and is amazed that I don't have to buy all of the Cheezburger pictures of cats! The nursing home has wi-fi, so he can look at silly cat pictures all he wants.

I can keep track of my bills and his, communicate with my siblings on the west coast and my aunt and cousins on the east coast and let them talk to him, as well. Using Facebook to share photos has helped us to stay close despite the distance. Sometimes I let him watch a movie on Netflix when he is bored. My iPad has paid for itself over and over in the 9 months I have had it.

Hello and welcome to the forum!

Hi Judy, that's a lovely story and a great way to use your ipad.

I'm new to ipad's but would be interested to know what App you use for your bills etc.

Keep up the good work you are doing.

The app I use for bills is Bank of America, but just about every major bank has their own. Not every place will send bills to the bank app, but almost all will send me an email notification.

Daughter Judy was my nickname years ago. I was on a league team where each of us was a different member of the Jetson clan, including Mr. Spacely!

That's cool. I'm betting "Rosie" was your coach.
