We recommend using a case with BrailleTouch for several reasons.
1. A case will help you grip the phone from the sides with both hands.
2. On the iPhone the speaker is under the Home button. A case will help keep your hand from blocking the speaker, if you use the speaker and not headphones. (The speaker location on the iPod touch is not an issue.)
3. A case will help orient your fingers on the screen when you are typing.

It may work for you without a case. Please try the app with the free version first.

Best,
Caleb

They recommend a case but I don't think I need one; I'm not planning to do 
typing anywhere where I think i'd drop the phone anyway. But I don't think you 
need to be stationary either if you mean sitting down somewhere; i think i can 
do it standing or walking somewher where I am familiar with my surroundings and 
not needing to use my cane. But then I don't type anyway without these factors. 
I'm not typing on the virtual keyboard or pulling out my bluetooth keyboard in 
situations where I'd have to balance them while trying to get somewhere though 
I'm sure some have the skill to do this. Dictation also has its limitations in 
a noisy environment so whatever you do, there are limitations. That's why it's 
good there are several options.
