Carolyn, Yes, you can ask Siri to send an email message, now, if you have the email address in the contacts email address in contacts, but if not, you will have to tell Siri the email address. For example, you could tell Siri to send an email message to Janet Gross if you had my email address in your contacts, and she will. Now if you don't have my email address in your contacts, you will have to tell Siri send an email to Janet. harv...@outlook.com , you will need to tell Siri what the subject line you want. Yes, Siri can reply to an email message. Siri can also read to you new email messages.
I hope this help you.

After hearing all this, I might try touch typing. Can you get Siri to do an email for you? I can get her to text, but haven't has as much luck with emails. Also can you get her to reply to one?

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!

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. Matthew On Jun 8, 2019, at 8:51 PM, Joshua Hendrickson <louv...@gmail.com> wrote: 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. -- Joshua Hendrickson Joshua Hendrickson -- The following information is important for all members of the V iPhone list.
