Make it personal without making it generic
Use only accounts, devices, and goals the recipient names; they enter every secret themselves and keep sole control of recovery information.
Presentation
Draw the three potential exports as labeled paper parcels showing contents, size uncertainty, destination, and open-later decision.
Check the practical fit
- Space
- Work on the recipient's own updated device in a private setting, with a paper note area that never receives passwords or security answers.
- Skill
- The helper must explain choices plainly, avoid taking credentials, and defer security incidents, inaccessible accounts, or uncertain deletion to qualified support.
- Maintenance
- Leave a nonsecret checklist, ownership map, review date, and tested exit path rather than making the giver permanent technical support.
- Accessibility
- Test keyboard, switch, voice, screen reader, magnification, captions, contrast, touch targets, one-handed use, and a low-memory alternative as relevant.
- Sustainability
- Use built-in controls and existing devices first, remove redundant copies carefully, and avoid subscriptions or hardware without a verified need.
- Timing
- Schedule enough uninterrupted time for updates, verification, and recovery tests; never rush deletion, transfer, or security changes to meet a gift date.
