Yes, there needs to be some separation of your fingers. The touch screen
needs to know that you're using multiple fingers instead of one fat
finger. Practice is key. You probably want to start by using some pretty
exaggerated gestures, and once they start working, see what you can get
away with. The roter gesture is a good example of this. I started with a
pretty exaggerated gesture where I had two fingers strangling a virtual
knob on the screen, and now it's just a quick twist with two fingers
barely touching the screen.

Oh, I thought you were supposed to keep your fingers close together.
I'll give that thumb thing a try also.
Do you separate your fingers a bit on all 2 and 3 finger taps; with
swipes also?
Thanks to everyone for giving me such good tips.

Hi Nancy,
Make sure you keep your two fingers spread apart a little bit. Some
people put their thumb between their two fingers to keep them spread
apart.

Hi Nancy,
Congratulation on getting your first touch phone. I am sure you will
get the hang of it. It just takes time, patience and practice.
As for hanging up a call, I to had some difficulties hanging up the
call. Try waiting a couple of seconds once you pull the phone away
from your ear and perform the two finger double tap gesture a little
slower, if you find your speed is not getting you results.
I found that if I waited a couple of seconds and perform the gesture
slower, I had better results in hanging up my calls.
Again, enjoy your phone, I am sure you will love it.

Dave,
Yipee! I just used a 2 finger double tap to answer the phone. My
husband, David, is being very patient with me calling him and asking
him to call me so I can practice.
I have not yet had much luck hanging up with the 2 finger double tap.
I'll keep practicing. :)

Nancy, to answer the call coming in just 2 finger double tap. it can
be done anywhere on the screen. same to hang up is another 2 finger
double tap. to make a call I just ask sirit to call the person. when
done talking a 2 finger double tap does it.
the person you are calling does need to be in your contact list.
be patient! I have learned that is the key to using these new phones.

Subject: IPhone SE question
I just got my first cell phone without buttons...the IPhone SE.
It left the store wrapped up in an Otterbox Defender case and a
tempered glass screen protector.
At this point, I am just trying to learn how to make and answer calls.
My finger is dancing all over the screen. If I had a adhesive Braille
Dot put on the screen so I would know where to tap, would that work?
Or would it cause Siri and VO anguish having a dot on the screen all
the time?I just have no idea how sensitive the screen is.
Thank you so much.
Nancy
