I don't think it's necessarily fair to assume she "needs" that without further context. My parents (late 70s; mother has severe arthritis) have an iPad that they use for video calling and they have been able to pick it up without issues. The only other thing they use it for is looking at photos we share to them on Google Photos. They were actually fairly tech illiterate (if anything weird happened to the TV or VCR they would phone me), but maybe 5 years ago I setup a Linux PC for my father to send emails to relatives. I should note that this was the first time he ever used a computer or anything remotely technical (his career was as a carpenter). I expected him to get frustrated and never use it again after the first few times, but he has learnt and managed to pick it up fairly well. I agree some things did take a while (e.g. explaining right clicking), but he persisted which was the main thing. The first few video calls usually resulted in me not seeing anything as they held their fingers over the camera, but they learnt how to do it. He has even started an online shop buying and selling Lego pieces (much to the detriment of my mother, as she barely sees him now).
