Hi folks, Yea I have to agree,
the great things about technology today is that we can now use with less troubles the same devices that the sighted world use no real need for the production of 3rd party products like years ago to make things usable. Accessibility is built in to our devices thanks to such companys as Apple and Google with android and the different Mac OS ranges. I use my phone all the time for different things, only when I know I’m going to need to do a lot of typing do I use my iClever bt keyboard with it. Otherwise I just use the IOS KB From: 'Donna Goodin' via MacVisionaries <[email protected]> Sent: Friday, 4 January 2019 3:03 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: iPhone accessory that may be of interest Hi Alia, Basically, I agree. If it provided a better typing solution I might have gone for it, but I'm perfectly comfortable using the touch screen, so have little interest in using a device such as this for iPhone operation. However, if someone has fine motor challenges or something like that, being able to use physical buttons might be helpful. Like I said, I don't think it'll be for everyone, but I do think it will appeal to some. I figure it's always good to know what your options are.

I don’t need anything “extra” to use it. same with mac. it’s why I moved from jaws to mac. so why would you buy a special accessory that makes you different again?! it’s just me, but that defeats the purpose. the iphone is perfectly accessible, and from the little I watched all those buttons just complicates something that’s perfectly simple, why is this needed?

Not sure what I think about it, but thought some might be interested. It seems to be a little hand-held device that replaces the touch screen on the iPhone.
