Hi Bob, Yes, I am using an Android phone and because I got fed up with high cellular phone bills, I switched to the Google Fi cellular network. As far as the phone goes, I was surprised how easy it was to learn how to use the built-in screen reader called Talkback. In fact, when the annoouncement about the death of WE came out, I gave considerable thought about what I should do. I considered switching to the other screenreader but discounted that path because I think that in the not too distant future technology will bring to an end such screenreradrs. So, that left me where so many of us have wanted to be, finding and acceptable screenreader that is supported by the operating system creator. There are three choices: MS narrator, Apple Voiceover,and Android Talkback. I played around with voiceover but I was unahappy about the fact that I would have to have an Iphone and yoou know how expensive they have become. So, that left Android and there are many phones in all price ranges that you can use. I bought a very inexpensive Android Tablet with the goal in mind of learning how to use Talkback. I felt that if using the touch screen was to difficult, I would eat the $100 cost and consider it just an experiment. But, I was surprised that I quickly learned how to use the tablet with the keyboard first and then detaching it so as to use the touch screen. Actually, Before buying the tablet,I needed a new cell phone so after reading about Google Fi, I decided to try it since no contract was involved. I bought from Google the Nexus 5 and I have never looked back. I coud go on but probably by now you have had enough. But, if you have any other questions, let me know. Bernie
