I don't know the Android platform at all well, or just at all; but know there's more to iOs than just VoiceOver and braille support, so the iPhone or to suit you very well, and there's more than enough of us here to offer support and encouragement.
Glad you got a friend that is prepaired to buck the control loop too. The one possible complication then, is two phones needing two simms/numbers/contracts, etc. So an iPod might have been enough and keep Android as the phone if you get on with it alright. Mother is not going to like the thought of her gift being put aside so soon I guess. I presume it was her gift, and not her buying on your behalf at your expense? not our business and don't feel obliged to answer that, just know it happens.

Yeah my friend Michelle is planning to get me an iPhone 5S for my birthday, as a late birthday gift. My mother controls when I get new phones, and since she got me an Android phone not too long ago, me getting an iPhone for her would be an absolute no and she wouldn’t do it. But Michelle was like it is unfair that she had an iPod and Android and I just had the Android. She wanted me to enjoy iOS just like she can, too. Especially since I have a condition similar to Cerebral Paulsy called Hemiplegia which makes me only have use of my left side. Therefore, there are more iOS games that I can play than computer games. Anyways, thanks again. Portia. > On Nov 26, 2015, at 11:50 PM, 'RobH.' via VIPhone <[email protected]> > wrote: > > Anything that still works is relevant. They still work and are still > supported.
