About How To, Simply
Who makes How To, Simply, how we make and source every guide, and who reviews our health, home, pet and craft articles before they go live.
IllustrationThe people behind the guides
A small family team that writes, checks and publishes every guide.
What we do
How To, Simply has two kinds of help. Tech guides for iPhone, Samsung Galaxy, Google Pixel, Xiaomi Redmi, OnePlus, OPPO, HONOR and Nothing phones, Mac and Windows show the screens you will actually see, as our own screenshots, and name the device and system version. Articles for home, health, life, education, pets, fashion, arts and gardening walk through each step with a drawing, cite official sources such as the NHS. New articles are approved by a reviewer with the right background before they go live.
Every guide and article starts with a short answer, then the steps in order. Some tech guides also have a short demo video from our YouTube channel, recorded on our own devices.
Real screens, labelled
Guides show our own screenshots from real devices, with the thing to tap or click marked, and the box at the top of each guide names the device and system version. Where we have no real screenshot yet, the step is text only.
Named system
Each guide has a box that says which device and system version the screenshots show and the date it was last checked.
Official sources, linked
We use the maker's or the platform's own documentation first, and every source we use is linked at the end of the guide.
No pretend reviews
We do not claim to have tested a product when we have not.
