Hi Rob,

The recommended way of using BrailleTouch is with two hands in landscape mode, with the screen facing away from you. You can read "Holding the Phone" on our User Guide:
http://brailletouchapp.com/ios-guide.html

Some people have reported success using BrailleTouch in a non-standard way, laying the phone flat on the table in landscape. They positioned their hands in a V-shape on the touchscreen, at 45 degrees. Their index fingers were toward the center of the touchscreen and on the edge of the screen closest to them. Their ring fingers were farther away from them, and toward the far corners of the screen. This is not the officially supported way of using BrailleTouch, and is not included in our instructions. But you are welcome to try it this way if you like.

BrailleTouch will be on the App Store by Jan 31.

Best,
Caleb

I tried it,  twists the wrists a bit peculiar, not good position to type in.
But urgonomics aside, it would work flat if that's what they want.  you
might have to lock orientation since the app needs to know which way is UP!

You can put the phone down I don't know what's the problem here.

Why can't we put the phone down when brailling?  I think holding it while
typing would be awkward.
