I need to help someone with Android setup over the Internet.
What programs are there that do that for free?

I asked gemini.google.com which suggested TeamViewer personal and Splashtop
personal and even AirDroid it said could do a minimum of support but I
wanted to check in with you to ask what you use.

I've used a paid version of AnyDesk from Windows to Samsung tablets, but
it has a free version.

There is also a PC version for it, you can use your PC as well to help
someone using Android.

You can even run your own server for it if you want (but you don't have to):
