How I, as someone who is visually impaired, use my iPhone (2020)
On the flip side, I have a blind friend who is in the market for a new phone right now to replace her old nokia with custom text to speech software. Half the buttons have fallen off. It's very difficult to find phones with physical buttons nowadays and the specialist ones cost the earth.<p>As nice as touch screens are, remember that physical buttons are more helpful for blind people. She knows that text messages are 2 clicks down in the menu, calls are one click, contacts are 3 clicks, etc. rather than having to swipe around and find the app<p>There in lies another issue with iphones for the blind, you can't remove all the other gumpf you don't need.  If there were just 3 big screen filling buttons with phone, texts and contacts, that would be easier to use than smaller icons.
