Hi,

Buy a standard USB keyboard used with PCs and a B/C to A OTG cable as per your 
android phone type. This shall work better instead of buying a 
wireless/bluetooth keyboard.

are moving into a rented home for some months until we renovate our newly

During that time I won’t have access to my computer but would like to still

Normally using Jaws/NVDA and the QWERTY Keyboard, I read documents by line, 
using down-arrow to read, and things like home, end, control-arrows by word to 
carefully navigate through difficult passages Etc.

Contrarily, on the phone, I find it awkward to read by swiping to reading modes 
using Talkback’s granularity settings then reading by swiping. One slightly 
wrong swipe and it navigates away from the current line in the text. Therefore 
I’ve never moved over to using a phone for such tasks as reading.

How are you all doing it? I’ve never used the function but from the Talkback 
documentation it appears we can connect a keyboard to the phone and navigate 
text similar to how we do it in Windows. Since I’ve never had a physical 
keyboard for the phone I’ve never had a chance to play around with it, so I 
simply don’t know. But it does appear Talkback may have lots of commands for 
navigating text, would that be true?

If anyone is willing to discuss this I’m happy to talk also. My Whatsapp number 
is:

Any advice will be very much appreciated, including what keyboard to buy that 
feels comfortable for us.

 

Thanks good people.

 

Kind regards,

[AI] Using a smart phone to comfortably read documents

2024-05-16 Thread Yamuna Jivana Dasa 
Hi friends,

I'm anticipating a time shortly that I will not have access to a computer.
We are moving into a rented home for some months until we renovate our newly
purchased home.

During that time I won't have access to my computer but would like to still
read scripture and other texts, including my E-mails.

Normally using Jaws/NVDA and the QWERTY Keyboard, I read documents by line,
using down-arrow to read, and things like home, end, control-arrows by word
to carefully navigate through difficult passages Etc.

Contrarily, on the phone, I find it awkward to read by swiping to reading
modes using Talkback's granularity settings then reading by swiping. One
slightly wrong swipe and it navigates away from the current line in the
text. Therefore I've never moved over to using a phone for such tasks as
reading.

How are you all doing it? I've never used the function but from the Talkback
documentation it appears we can connect a keyboard to the phone and navigate
text similar to how we do it in Windows. Since I've never had a physical
keyboard for the phone I've never had a chance to play around with it, so I
simply don't know. But it does appear Talkback may have lots of commands for
navigating text, would that be true?

If anyone is willing to discuss this I'm happy to talk also. My Whatsapp
number is:

+27 82 291 6081.

 

Any advice will be very much appreciated, including what keyboard to buy
that feels comfortable for us.

 

Thanks good people.

 

Kind regards,

 

Yamuna Jivana dasa
