Hi, First, you can certainly set it up yourself. You cannot, however, add the braille display until the phone is pretty much set up.
Alan Lemley wrote a very detailed guide for transferring everything from your old phone to the new one wirelessly, which if you are interested, I put the Word document on my web site. I'll put the direct link to the document at the end of my message. Once the phone powers on, if it is a phone with no home button, triple tap the side button to turn on VoiceOver. If it has a home button, Triple tap the home button. VoiceOver will come on and you can follow the prompts from there. You will have to go through many settings first before you can get to the accessibility settings, VoiceOver , Braille to select your display. I'm waiting for the 13's to come out myself since that should be just a little more than a month.

So here's my question. When I take my new phone out of the box and begin the set-up process, I'd like to use my Braille device as soon as possible to enter information. How soon in the set-up process may I connect the device, or is this even necessary or possible. Can I set my new phone up without help from anyone? Just wondering as I consider this giant step. Thanks for advice and encouragement from those of you who are much more tech savvy than I am. Peace & Blessings, Pastor Duane L.
