Richard,
I hope you do get one, I’d be most interested in your comments. Cheers.

I just thought of another good use, for entering prescription numbers for refills. Sometimes, the dictation of numbers doesn't work well. I may be talking myself into getting one of these, 😊.

Here is a tactile numeric keypad that can plug directly into the USB port on an iPhone 15 or later. Earlier models would require an adaptor. To us it the consumer can open the phone app and then use the physical buttons on the external keypad to type the number and press the ENTER key to dial it. Once on a call they can use the physical buttons on this external keypad to type in input. That is good for times when complicated input is needed like typing in a credit card number.
