Hi Netbat, Fat fingers should have no impact whatsoever on your use of a touch screen. You normally just repeatedly flick in whatever direction you need to in order to select an item, and then just double-tab to activate it.

I have had an IPhone for just over two years and, like you, I used to be totally lost when it came to anything with a touch screen. In fact, I can find my way around my IPhone quite well, or, at least, well enough for my purposes. I must admit that I use Sery, the voice assistent and I use a bluetooth keyboard to get from one app to another, and when you open up an app. Most apps are menu driven, so I have gotten used to it. This is not to say that you should get an IPhone or anything, I agree with you that you shouldn't have todo what other blind people are doing,. I just wanted to let you know that it may be easier than you think to use an idevice.
