Solve Your Tech publishes step-by-step guides for everyday tech tasks on Windows, iPhone and iPad, Android, Microsoft Office, Outlook, and Google apps. Each guide starts with the answer, then walks through the steps, so you can fix the problem and get back to what you were doing.
We mainly write about products we use on our own computers and phones, because those are the ones we know best. Our how-to articles are checked step by step against the device or app maker’s own documentation, and we test them on our own devices whenever we have the hardware or software, so we can confirm the steps and point out the spots where people tend to get stuck.
Who Writes Solve Your Tech
Solve Your Tech was founded in 2012 by Matthew Burleigh, who is still its head writer and editor. Matthew has been writing technology tutorials online since 2008, first as a freelancer and then here.
His background is in IT. He earned Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees in Computer Science from Arizona State University and has worked in the field since 2003, starting in IT support for small businesses and later moving into IT management and consulting. He has also designed, built, and maintained dozens of websites, mostly with WordPress and Shopify.

How We Write and Update Articles
- Answer first. The first paragraph of each guide tells you how to do the task. The steps and details follow.
- Checked against the source. Steps are tested on a current device or checked against the maker’s own documentation from Microsoft, Apple, or Google, and we link to that official page so you can confirm it yourself. When we can’t capture a real screenshot, we use simple diagrams and label them as illustrations.
- Clear visuals without personal details. Guides may include screenshots taken for the article or clearly labeled interface illustrations with arrows and numbered callouts. Names, email addresses, and other personal information are removed. Interface layouts can vary by software version and device.
- Clear dates. Every article shows when it was first published and, if it has changed since, when it was last updated, so you can tell whether it matches the version of the software you’re using.
- Kept current. When Windows, iOS, or an app changes, we update the article instead of publishing a new one. In 2026 we removed thousands of older, short guides and combined duplicates so each topic has one maintained article.
