Re: [Audyssey] Draconis Releases DoItWrite 1.0
I chose at an early age to learn how to write, and though I haven't used this app, I have played around with Voiceover's handwriting function. I can pretty much get it to recognize everything except a couple of punctuation marks, and yes. The letters look like letters, or at least, the way I write my letters gets recognized by voiceover, so ... uh, maybe I'm not actually answering your question.

Re: [Audyssey] Draconis Releases DoItWrite 1.0
Bought the game earlier and wow it is very good indeed. This will certainly challenge me when learning to handwrite. I can handwrite after being encouraged to at school but it's squiggly at best. Also drawing on the screen is something relatively new to most of us I think. Well done guys and keep it up!

Re: [Audyssey] Draconis Releases DoItWrite 1.0
Yes, it’s instructive and fun. Just what I needed, being blind from birth and though familiar with letter and number shapes from playing with alphabet blocks as a kid, I haven’t written them much. This is good practice, since I’d like to enter my passcode without the thing blabbing to the rest of the world. :) Great job, guys.

Re: [Audyssey] Draconis Releases DoItWrite 1.0
I may have to look into that myself. I've also been blind my entire 33 years and could never quite get the hang of this writing print business. I can sign my first and last initials but even that's probably not very consistent.
