Iphone Updates

Ask anyone.. I am the furthest thing from technologically savvy. Can I do basic things on the computer and phone to get me through school and to use social media websites? Yes-- I was born in the 90s afterall. But as far as all the iphone updates and syncing your macbook with your phone, it's just beyond me! I guess if I sat down and really worked at it and figured everything out, then sure I'd be able to do it. It's just that I have no interest in doing all that stuff. It's time consuming and it gives me anxiety. Tonight my friends decided that I needed to update my phone. In order to do this I needed to sync my phone and computer in order to free up data space on my phone. It took a lot of patience, a lot of questions asked, and a lot of confusion, but I feel like my life is fully up to date now. I might have post traumatic stress disorder after all this. So for now, my phone and computer are up to date.... until the next update comes out, that is. Then it'll be this whole ballgame all over again. Great!
