Hello Ioana. I've also recently acquired an iPAD. Prior to getting it, I've used an iPHONE since 2011. I've got spacial difficulties and am finding that it isn't at all the easy transition I thought it would be. Personally, I prefer my iPHONE7. I find it easier to keep my gestures from going crooked or being misinterpreted on my iPHONE. However, that may be partially due to having used an iPHONE for so long.
I would have to basically agree with the previous commenters. I use my iPAD for more cunsumption of media and do actual work on my iPHONE. The iPAD gives me the advantage of a second iOS device which is useful for tappping into the music, dramas, podcasts and books I want to hear while still keeping my iPHONE free. Braille screen input is much easier on an iPAD due to the extra length but I'm far faster on a Bluetooth keyboard paired with my iPHONE. Also, the iPHONE has GPS while the iPAD doesn't. There may very well be some apps which take advantage of the iPAD's size in a way which is especially useful for blind people. I can imagine maps or game boards being easier to cope with on a larger touchscreen but have yet to find anything other than a talking atlas which is specifically for iPADs. I look forward to reading other people's thoughts about this.
