Hi Amy,

I think I would like to try the OtterBox Defender and would love it if you could send one of the screen overlays for that particular case. I just have two questions: 1. You said that the case has its own built-in screen protector. I looked online and they referred to it as a membrane that fits over the screen. I'm guessing that what that would mean is that, once you put on the SpeedDots overlay, you would, in effect, have two screen protectors. Does that affect screen sensitivity?

2. You said that your overlay doesn't peel off the OtterBox because you're not sliding your phone in and out of a shell. Instead, your phone stays in the shell all the time. I understand that, but how then does it fit into the belt clip/holster? I would imagine that the back of the phone would slide into the holster, with the screen facing out. Is that right?

Thanks so much for answering my questions.  I appreciate your time.

Suzanne Wilson

Hi Suzanne,

Do you know what kind of case it is that you have? What name and who makes
it?

I can tell you that the screen protectors that we sell to fit over the
OtterBox Defender cases, are measured and then cut to fit them exactly.
This works though because of the design of that case. You don't have to take your phone out in order to use it, so the screen protector can just fit over
the top of the case, your phone goes inside; done.
We've had other customers say similar things about the juice pack cases...
If you are constantly taking your phone in and out of a case with that kind of design, it can cause your protector to peal like that, especially if it's
not on straight.
We have only ever tested our screen protectors with one other case and that
is the Griffin, and our screen protectors will not fit them properly.

Hi Amy,

I have a question.  I use a case for my iPhone 4s that has two parts:  a
hard part that is like a shell into which my phone very snugly fits, and a
back belt clip that the phone and shell fit into. It's not an OtterBox, but

it may be similar.  When I bought one of the SpeedDots overlays, it very
quickly got ruined because the edge chafed against the shell when I slipped
the phone in and out.  I see that you sell overlays for the OtterBox and
wonder if you could describe how they differ from your standard ones.  Do
you know if they work with cases that are similar to the OtterBox as well?
Thanks.

Suzanne

I do like the fact that I can type completely by touch without voiceover
and
that I can truly use my phone, without the need of lugging around a
Bluetooth keyboard and that I can type 60 WPM on my iPhone.
Yes I make them and sell them, so this may seem a bit not quite objective, but we all used them and gave them away for testing prior to selling them.
If they hadn't taken off, we'd have no company.
They aren't for everyone which is quite true, but then again, neither is
an
iOS device. *smile*
It's nice to have choices. I love my bluetooth keyboard, especially if I'm
sending a lot of very long emails, but it's not a need anymore because of
the overlay.
It's $7. Most would spend that on a meal or something, so the price point
is
affordable where keyboards cost much more.

I bought both, one with lots of dots and one with few;  tried and took
them
off pretty soon and didn't use them since.  You feel about a bit to start
with, but you get good at hitting the right spot after a while, like a
good
pianist does.  And if you neeed  to write that much, most get a real BT
keyboard and type on that.  Given the price of those overlays, and the
starting price of a BT keyboard;  you're half way towards the real kb for
the cost of those bits of cutout plastic. BGut each to their own;   the
TypeInBraille has complicated this question a bit too as some have got
quite

efficient typists on that and transfer the text to the necesssary app
after
they wrote it.

They might be good for an absolute novice, but most soon grow out of them
and it has been argued that starting on them only creates the dependence
they wouldn't otherwise have if they learnt from the beginning as-is so to
speak.

I was talking to a coworker today, who recommended that if I get a phone,
I
get one of the tactile screen overlays.  He said it makes it a lot easier
for him to know where to touch the screen.  I realize that opinions are
probably as numerous as the number of people asked, but I thought I would
ask anyway.  If you have one, as you have gotten use to using your phone,
has it gotten in the way more than helped?  If so, is it easy to get off
the

phone?  Thanks for any opinions.

Arnold Schmidt
