My wife is working on a holder made with clear vinyl with a lanyard that has a cord adjustment so you can wear it over the shoulder, or shorten the cord and wear it so the camera is at about your sternum so you can use it hands free in a store, or when getting help with something in your house. The materials cost under $5. Where I work, people are beginning to use Be My Eyes or Aira in free locations where they would not be able to get the glasses. Richard

There are probably cheaper tripods and holders out there, but this one really is great with it’s bendy little legs and since it’s a universal holder it is not something that would no longer work if you ever bought a different phone, e.g. if you now had a regular size phone and you get a lus-size phone later.

I have read all the documentation I could find but I still have a couple of questions. Is the rear facing camera the one I use? If I need to use both of my hands while on a call do I just find some place to prop up the phone or have any of you found a good solution?
