Re: still haven't gotten braille touch
with the home button on your left, put your thumbs on the side that is now the top, and your little fingers on the side which is now the bottom. The bottom is the side with volume controls. now think of your left index finger as dot 1, your left middle as dot 2, and your left ring finger as dot 3. So your right index finger is dot 4, right middle dot 5, and right ring finger is dot 6. HTH.

Re: still haven't gotten braille touch
Hello Rebecca 1. I suggest you get a silicon case as they provide an excellent grip for the phone. At least they do to me. Prices start around £1 or the equivalent in your country. 2. You need to orientate the phone so that the home button is on the right and the earpiece is on the left. Next try to imagine the dots as being vertically arranged, rather than horizontally arranged, on the screen. So dots 1, 2 and 3 are on the left half of the screen while dots 4, 5 and 6 are on the right half. You may also want to try the flip dots 1-3, 4-6 setting, which can be found in BrailleTouch, accessed in the main settings app on the phone under the advanced heading. Good luck. Chris.

Re: still haven't gotten braille touch
Rebecca, i am still looking for the most comfortable way to hold the phone, but on my chest holding the phone with thumbs on top and baby fingers on the bottom :is the easiest for me. Now your fingerS can be Put on the scr'een fairly closE together. most important is that you touch the screen lightly and keep index and ring fingers close to top and bottom. I find not lifting my fingerS very far off the screen gives best results. Others havving better coordInation can add much to help you, but just keep practicing! i am slowly getting better! Keep plugginG! It gets better, and grade 2 is only going to improve the app! Reggie and Brooks On Feb 2, 2013, at 3:27 AM, Rebecca Ilniski rilni...@gmail.com wrote: Hi everyone.

Probably not. If you flip the dots and lay the iPhone flat, you would need to angle your hands so your fingers are pointing out to create a pyramid shape.

Re: still haven't gotten braille touch
David, of course that's right. I posted before I thought. :) Teresa Slow down; you'll get there faster. On Feb 2, 2013, at 1:57 PM, David Chittenden dchitten...@gmail.com wrote: Probably not. If you flip the dots and lay the iPhone flat, you would need to angle your hands so your fingers are pointing out to create a pyramid shape.

Does it make the dots change as using a slate and stylus With 1, 2, 3 on the right? Reggie and Brooks On Feb 2, 2013, at 12:58 PM, Chris H christopher...@gmail.com wrote: Hello Rebecca 1. I suggest you get a silicon case as they provide an excellent grip for the phone. At least they do to me. Prices start around £1 or the equivalent in your country. 2. You need to orientate the phone so that the home button is on the right and the earpiece is on the left. Next try to imagine the dots as being vertically arranged, rather than horizontally arranged, on the screen. So dots 1, 2 and 3 are on the left half of the screen while dots 4, 5 and 6 are on the right half. You may also want to try the flip dots 1-3, 4-6 setting, which can be found in BrailleTouch, accessed in the main settings app on the phone under the advanced heading. Good luck. Chris.

What kind of case do you find works best with the app? 2. I am wondering how you hold your phone as I've tried it both with the hone button on the left as well as on the right. I can type a-h successfully but once I get to the letter i I begin having trouble as picturing the alignment of the dots has been difficult for me. I'd like to be able to get this thougb as I do love my braille. If there's a way someone could assist me with a good description or even using skype or face time so that maybe visually you can tell what I'm doing that would be ok too.
