Hi Rick, I guess this wouldn't work with the screen facing you because your hands would be upside down. If you had fingers sprouting from the back of your hand it would work well *smile*.

I also am finding this very interesting. It took me a few minutes but once I got my head around the phone being backwards in a visual sense, I was Brailling away with no issues. Even though I have no vision whatsoever, the fact that the phone was facing away from me and visually upside down from my point of view was somehow troubling me. As soon as I forgot about the screen orientation and just worried about the home button being on the right, I was good to go. I can't help but wonder why this can't be done without having to have the landscape orientation facing away from you as opposed to facing you. I'm sure there's a very good reason for it but just curious what that reason is. Pretty amazing app. Best, Rick alfaro On 1/31/2013 2:33 PM, ROBERT CARTER wrote: > Hi, > > It is so funny how we can have such different experiences with the same app. I was entering text very quickly and quite accurately three or four minutes after installing BrailleTouch.

If you take a few minutes and read that, I think you will understand better how to use the app and won't be so frustrated. The description of how to hold the phone is there. The special custom gestures that enable you to get space, delete and to open the menu are there, etc. Good luck. >> >> Mary >> >> Mary Otten >> [email protected] >> >> >> -- >> You received this message because you are subscribed to the "VIPhone" Google Group. >> To search the VIPhone public archive, visit http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/. >> To post to this group, send email to [email protected]. >> To unsubscribe from this group, send email to [email protected]. >> For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/viphone?hl=en. >> --- >> You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "VIPhone" group. >> To unsubscribe from this group and stop receiving emails from it, send an email to [email protected]. >> For more options, visit https://groups.google.com/groups/opt_out. >> >> > -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the "VIPhone" Google Group.
