I have some vision and work at LCI in Hazlehurst, Ms. this industry hires blind people and I have worked there for thirty years. Many of them have those IPhones like you have with voice over activated and it is nice. I have an IPad and it is nice. I am learning more on it. I am glad to see you making videos showing the blind using adaptive technology to the world. Good outreach. I am proud of you.thanks again and keep up the good work.

Amazing Anna, God Bless and Thank yo for sharing your skills of maneuvering emails and reading documents.

Email is cool on the iPhone, as long as dictation works well. This is basically the only thing I have, because touch typing on the iPhone is a nightmare for me. I don’t have sight at all, but I love the iPhone 8 Plus.

My question for her is if the technical has gotten any better since 2014 or if it’s about the same? What exactly are the differences between 3000 and 1000?

Miss Anna: what version of Jaws are you currently using? recent versions of that software, such as jaws 22, can allow you to have the mouse read. This is called mouse echo, and when referring to jaws 22, I am really referring to Jaws 2022. this change was made, I think after just 19, to reflect model year numbers. please contact freedom scientific for more information.
