All this cost me headaches and nausea, but I did it all by myself, with no help. I am learning the basics

Dave.
You accomplished a great deal....I agree with Lara...way beyond basics.
I don't know what AVG and Whatsapp are?!
Sorry it caused you headaches. Please remember, on most tablets and phones, you can turn the brightness way down. I keep mine almost all the way low because it is easier on my eyes and I think I don't get headaches as quickly.You can also mess around with contrast and font size to ease the eye strain.
I am sure you know all this....just a reminder( or me babbling, more like it).

My eye doc scolded me for using my IPAD in bed at night and also said the imperceptible flashing did something to the brain to affect REM sleep. He suggested I stop it at least a couple hours before bed. Guess I have to stop binge watching TV shows on Netflix!

My best, D.
