Thanks for all the suggestions but believe me I’ve tried reprogramming my
digits with and without sighted assistance and at various parts of my thumb.
What I haven’t done as yet, which I think you were suggesting in your msg, was
to assign the same finger to more than one slot.
Put in thumb and 2 fingers almost 5 days ago, still working fine no matter
which finger I touch. Try taking a paper towel or something very soft and as
dust free and wipe home button. May help. I have extremely dry finger pads too
so maybe helps too. I thought too I would have problems, but
That is probably because you are using the free version.
I suspect if you wrote the developer, that would likely be the answer if your
list of voices is smaller.
That is only a guess.

Rolling your finger when scanning your finger makes all the difference in
