Also, there is voiceover practise mode, which will help, with getting use to
gestures.

Joshua,
It is always painful & frustrating to learn new things. Based on how good
you are with the Victor I know you will get more comfortable with the IPhone
too. You do not have to type everything. For texts, you can just use Siri.
Activate Siri & just say send message to name of someone or even a phone
number. She will ask what you want to say and when you are done she will
read the message back to you & ask if you are ready to send.
When you do need to type something, there is a dictation button to the left
of the space bar. When you touch it Siri says double tap to start dictation
then 2 finger double tap when done.
And as others have said, turning on touch typing does make typing much
easier. You just lift your finger when you hear the letter you want. You
will get faster at landing on the right letter right away. There is a
delete button at the bottom right if you make a mistake.
I was going to give you directions on how to change typing to touch but
couldn't find it just now. I did this too long ago to remember how.
Hopefully someone will chime in with detailed instructions on where this
setting is.
Good luck. I predict you will be helping others with their IPhones within a
year!

Hi, as a technology teacher, I have to say give the iphone experience a few
weeks to a month. Check out the basics podcasts on Applevis, or maybe
someone can be a mentor for you. It takes a few weeks to get in the mindset
of the iphone. If you're a braille writer, then eventually you will enjoy
braille screen input instead of the screen keyboard. You can set the typing
mode to touch tyling so you lift up on the letter you want. Give the iphone
some more time. You'll not regret it.

Hi to all. How do I unsubscribe from this list. I never should have gotten
an iPhone in the first place. I don't want to take the time to learn how to
type on the stupid keyboard on the screen. I hate the idea of having to
type in my apple ID when I want to download an app.
Stupid security. My flip phone was so much easier. I could just turn it on
and it would power up and away I would go. No having to type in my stupid
pass code to unlock my phone. I never should have let that article I read
about seeing AI influence my decision to get an iPhone.
On Monday I'm contacting apple to see about getting it returned and most of
my money back. With apple care and the cost of my phone, I spent almost
$1000. I could have bought a great desktop computer for that much money and
it has a real keyboard on it.
