Part three of The Black Friday Haul. Christmas morning, and Robin is the family tech support desk: Milo's new tablet, Nana's new phone asking for the password to her password manager, and Tess's Christmas photos not backing up. The home server in the cupboard took an update overnight, and the photo app won't start on the new version. Uncle Darren's advice is technically right: roll it back, pin the version, and build a second box to test updates on. It's also one more thing to update, and the turkey's in. So Robin spends Boxing Day in the cupboard. He can fix all of it; he just didn't want to be fixing it at Christmas. ElfHosted doesn't do Black Friday discounts. Instead, any trial started in Black Friday week (Monday 23 November to Monday 30 November 2026), on any app or plan that has a trial, new customer or not, runs until 1 January 2027. The Black Friday Haul is a short animated saga from ElfHosted about one family's apps over the holidays: the deals, a home server from the sales, Christmas tech support, and a trial that runs to the new year. Each part stands on its own; watch them in order in the playlist on our channel.
