    My mother can’t see the paragraph Siri requires to be read so she can understand my mother’s voice. How do those with so much vision loss get Siri to understand their voice? We tried whispering the paragraph to my mother, piece by piece, but Siri kept shutting off. Maybe the slower speech setting would help with that? Is there a solution?

    I watched this u tube yesterday and really liked many ideas including the Big Key app. I signed up and had my granddaughter help me set up. She then told me that using a keyboard other than original one makes your emails open to third party. I work with superior courts and that could cause problems if true. Can you let me know if that is correct with this app?

    Symptoms described did not cover eyelids sticking to cornea overnight and the damage caused through releasing them. Sleep disruption caused by eye movement during REM sleep is dreadful.

    The thing here is with the iPhone the touch drag and tap is quicker to man your phone. Cause the double tap it takes a bit longer to execute and you don’t have to do that. I as a proficient iPhone user use a touch and tap all the time and it saves you time from double tapping the screen. Also, knowing where. You are at on the iPhone is important. Too, if you get really good you can use a Bluetooth keyboard along with your jesters. Very easy to do if you iknow your phone. Or touch typing on the screen or standard typing. I have used an iPhone sense the iPhone 5s. Have used apple products before iPhone like the apple 23 computers as well. You just get to know technology. I have even taught people at the Apple Store something about the iPhone. Pretty amazing right? I am a blind successful business owner as well. I do everything with my phone now. I have the 14 plus as well and it is a great phone. But I do use the phone and Bluetooth keyboard all of the time. Especially when i am typing, I don’t want to have to dictate everything, so i have a keyboard with me and that way, I can use the phone like a laptop computer. But if you drag, and tap use one finger to drag along the screen, and use another to tap you save your self a tap or 2. You don’t necessarily have to do a double tap. If you know how to drag, and tap you actually can get really fast on the iPhone. It is super easy once you know how to do that.
