I have done some teaching people who are just losing their sight and need to learn to use voiceover. It is best to turn the screen curtain on so they learn it without any sight. This relieves some of the frustration as their sight becomes worse. But a fully sighted person would probably have no clue what a screen curtain was or how to turn it off. The exception is for a close family or friend who has learned a bit about how we use our phones.

They haven't a clue, and there is nothing to see.Wondering the very same thing. Given that a sighted person will use the screen to do what we do using the screen reader, how could they do it without anything to see?
