Hi,
Also, try holding the phone against you whilst you type. This helps
to keep things more stable and your arms are also against you
offering them some assistance.
Hope this helps,
Cokes.

Barbara,
I've discovered other ways of holding it so be very experimental. My
most comfortable is to hold with thumbs and little fingers on either
side of the case, near to each end, and I find I can write both with
screen facing me and facing away.
With the pod I prefer just to use thumbs and hold more with the
hand, because it's thinner.
I have used both on the table but still don't like the curve action
too much then. I also quite like using it on a cushion at a very slight angle.
Yea, play! Find the best one for you and you may find you change
from time to time.

I think the basic idea of the app is great, but the holding
position has many flaws. It is hard to grip the phone, it is
uncomfortable and your right hand blocks the sound of Voice Over
coming from the speaker.
Just my personal thoughts.

Subject: Hand placement with Braille Touch
Hi,
I ant to concur with others that the way one uses Braille Touch is
not using ergonomic principles. Hence, it places at least my right
hand at jeopardy in possibly developing carpal tunnel. I believe
the developers should take a serious look at creating a Perkins
style layout for the app. Even though I am slow in braille
processing, it is essential to find a solution to this issue. I
have tried all sorts of different ways to position my hands,but
after a few minutes my right hand begins to fatigue and hurt in the
wrist. This issue has been discussed by others on this list, so I
hope the developers of the app are listening. May be this will be
fixed in the near future. There must be a good reason why all of
the braille note takers and braille displays are manufacturers
design the products with a horizontal layout.
Thanks for listening.
