Subject: Re: [Mobile.AI] chalanges for totally blind in using touch screen
phones.-discuss
first of all thank you sir for starting this useful discussion.
I had same issues when i was thinking to buy an android device. And i
have bored our friends like anything with my childish questions.
This is not only yours problem. Even i was afraid to touch screen when
i can work on any mobile without any screen reader. I have seen many
sighted who do not want to use touch screen phone.
But in our case as you said we do not have any option. So accept this
reality of touch screen.
I am using xolo q700 from 10 days, and believe me it is not as tough
as i thought.
I agree that without sight it is tough to operate but possibilities are there.
So happy learning.
