RE: Apple Pencil

Yeah I have tried but with total sight loss The term pushing sh*t up hill with a tooth pick comes to mind. If you have some sight then you might find it better to use but I know I got rid of the pencil quickly after figuring out it didn’t work for me. It’s to me a nice idea but without being

RE: Apple Pencil

Hi Fanus, The Apple Pencil is a fancy name for the styless you can buy to use in together with an iPad pro. If you have an iPad Pro you can do various things with this thing although I am not sure if it is of much use for a blind person. I don’t think it adds any functionality to the iPhone at
