I think you need to keep working to improve your braille speed and your listening speed so that you rely less on magnification. It is not the best of both worlds but a hindrance because magnification cannot compare to the speed of using voice an braille when used successfully. Yes it is frustrating and very challenging to learn something knew fully enough to use it over a easier formerly used technique. However, once done, you will b happier for it. Continuing to think about how you wish you could see is like a sighted person continuing to think about how they don't have sonar. Once you stop even having that word disability which means no ability in your vocabulary and mindset, you will thrive. That is the soft version of what I think.

I’m wondering if I need to enable or should enable the magnifier gesture. How would this be helpful. Also I’m always struggling with going between blindness and low vision. Is it ok to use a cane, read braille, have a note taker and still look at your phone? I’m just curious what others do and think.Thanks, Aaron Linson Podcaster Studios <http://blindpodcaster.com/> Being Confident in your ability, not your disability
