Thank you for the tips.  I actually made a screen protector by cutting clear 
plastic to the exact size of the screen and using double-stick tape.

Hi, I personally don't use either equalEyes or Ma, but that is besides the 
point. 
The phone usually gives you a slight vibration feed back when you find the 
right spot when it vibrates a little just go ahead and slide to answer as soon 
as you feel that vibration.
I would also suggest calling yourself a few times off another phone to get the 
hang of it.
Another thing you could do is buy a package of screen protectors and make a 
slight scratch on the screen protector you install on the phone where the slide 
to answer area is that way it gives you a clue or landmark of where to do it.
Don't worry I am sure you will have the hang of the device soon.

  Thank you very much for the answer to the second question.  I didn’t notice 
the Send, but will look again.

  I’m going to show my ignorrance again, as I am new to my Android phone.  
Sometimes, I also have difficulty answering the phone.  I swipe from left to 
right when the phone is ringing, but it is hit and miss.  More than not, I end 
up needing to return a missed call.  Any hints to make this easier.

  I have used Mobile Accessibility in the past, and really liked the feature of 
using the volume button to answer the phone.  Understand that I am coming to 
the touch screen from a phone with physical buttons, so this is a learning 
curve for me.

  Thank you again for any hints you can give.

  Judy

  Hi, I can answer your second question, but your first one is quite 
interesting.  For your second one you tap the mike on the keyboard, say what 
you would like to say, then tap the stop buttons found on the screen so you 
stop recording.  When you have done this you just hit the send button which in 
most cases is found above the p key.

    Hello, to All,

    My name is Judy, and I work for the state of Idaho, and love our high 
desert climate and its sunshine.

    I am new to the Android platform, having come from a Nokia device, and love 
it.  I have the LG Optimus 2 with Android 4.1.2.

    I have actually two questions.

    In using EqualEyes to create a message, where is the recipient field?  The 
fields available in the new message are Number, and Insert Message.  However, 
when I tap on the Number field, anything I type appears in the message field.

    Second question:  How would I send a message when using the Voice button on 
the keyboard?  I can record a message, but how do I send from there?

    Thanks in advance for any help you can give.

    Judy
