No problems at all Anna.
Both books are fantastic, you really do know your stuff.
For anyone who wants to add another bar of gold to their library. See
below link for Getting Started with the iPhone and iOS 11:

Again, an excellent buy regardless of skill level.
I hope to purchase many more titles written by Anna in the coming years.

Thanks very much, Sadam. I'm so glad you liked the book. and fortunately, the
changes to the watch mean that while the book won't cover the new features, it
should still be accurate about the features it describes.
I'm not doing a Getting sTarted with the iPhone book this year because demand
is way down. The changes in iOS 12 are small enough that the iOS 11 version
should still be helpful, though.
Best,
Anna

I recently purchased Anna's excellent book You and Your Apple Watch.
It was amazingly well written!
Even with the exchange rate I didn't hesitate to hit that buy button.
I'd consider myself quite an advanced user of tech, but even I learn some very
handy tips and tricks from Anna's wonderful book.
Advanced or basic user, anyone wanting to get to grips with the Wach from a
blindness perspective should jump at purchasing the above title.
Thanks again for writing such a fantastic book Anna, I would rate this book 5
stars and then some.
Are you planning to update Getting Started with the iPhone and iOS 11 once iOS
12 is released?
Keep up the good work!

Hi everyone,
My favorite things about the watch are getting notifications on my wrist and
the fitness stuff. In a crowded, noisy environment, getting a tap on the wrist
when a text message comes in means I'm more likely to know I got the message.
I'm not that into fitness, but being reminded to get up and walk around each
hour has improved my health, I'm sure.
Sometimes when it's hard to get my phone out in a hurry, being able to answer
the phone from my wrist is convenient.
There are apps that are really helpful in addition to the built-in ones as
well. I have one called Clicker that simply lets you tap it to count things. I
knit, and some of the patterns require counting rows. I love having the count
on my wrist, where it's easy to access.
It's also easier to deal with text messages from the watch without stopping
what I'm doing completely. When a new one comes in, I can quickly dictate a
reply.
I hope that helps.
Best,
Anna

I have two Braille watches. But I do wonder why I would want an Apple watch?
What would it do for me, especially since I have an iPhone? I'm not a swimmer,
so that part of it has no application to me.
Best regards,
Carolyn

Subject: some apple watch questions
Hey guys,
OK, i have been toying with the idea of getting the apple watch. So don't
laugh, right now, i have a braille watch, yea i know, old, lol.
Honestly i haven't really played with the apple watch. What's everyone's
thoughts on it? The list of things you can do with it, it's crazy.
Just wanna get some general opinions.
Thanks,
Jed
