switching to iPhone or I-O-S-devices

Dear Loy & List: I meant I download the podcasts usually on WIFI, although go o am unlimited cellular LTE data plan as of Aug. 11. As the podcasts are residing on my device, I am able to listen to them without cloud connectivity as I try to avoid streaming. Brian K. Lingard

If you don't use cellular or WIFI, how do you get all that on your phone?

Dear Josh & List: Personally, I generally buy Iphones with the fastest processor and most memory. This let’s me have tons of podcasts in local memory so I do not need cellular or wifi transfers to stream or download them. Further, I can work on a document without needing cloud storage.
Guess I like spending money. Wish I had a plantation of money frees, all blooming with $1,000 banknotes. Brian K. Lingard

Hi, I have one more question. My android phone is a 64gb64 GB storage phone. I am only using about 21.5gb21.5 GB out of the gb storage. I could cut that down if I deleted some vocalizer voices though. My question though, is this. In general, how expensive of IOS devices iPhones, iPads, iPod touch, and so on, do people on this list purchase? On my android phone I have eloquence, be my eyes, vocalizer voices, envision AI, Netflix and 3 or 4 other streaming apps including XFinity for my tv, 2 or 3 radio streaming apps. Some aps I need because the native ones are not accessible such as I have 2 or 3 camera apps. Every now and then I take video but my photos and videos do not stay on the phone. They go onto Facebook or YouTube and then get deleted off the phone. I don’t fill up my phone with unneeded stuff but yet when I go somewhere like vacation, I like to take some movies and tv shows with me, then when done delete them off the phone. So, do you guys mostly buy 32 gb or gb iPhones? I cannot really think of a case where a huge 256 gb phone for me? Well I would never fill that up. And come to think of it, a 128 gb iPhone I would never fill up either. I try to stream whenever possible. The iPhone7 seems most economical the 32 gb one for $450. Or do most visually-impaired folks opt for the most storage?

I found out I can bluetooth tether I-O-S devices to android and use a bluetooth hotspot. So therefore because I like both platforms because each has their advantages, I think I'll save money and get an iPod touch with 128gb of storage. And when I need data I'll bluetooth the iPod touch to the android phone and have the iPod touch borrow its data. I'll get the iPod touch 7th generation with the a10 fusion chip. But I do have a question, yes another one. If in the future I get an iPad, does the iPad's 8mp camera have a flash? Apple says you can scan documents with iPad so I am hoping it has a flash. I know the iPod touch camera has a flash. My android phone camera also has a flash. And with the iPod touch and my android phone in my pocket I can get rid of a good number of apps on the android, and use more apps exclusively on the touch and give the phone a break. And if I want good braille access I can bluetooth the orbit reader to the touch and even use braille screen input if I wish.

Hi: I have an iPhone 7 Plus with 128 gigs of storage. In the future, I want to get a phone with at least 256 gigs of storage. I store several bard books, some photos, a couple of videos and other documents. I always like to have more than less. Victor On Aug 1, 2019, at 10:18 AM, Leedy Diane Bomar <bomonkee53@...> wrote:

I get as much storage as I possibly can on my iPhone. Actually I have an iPhone 7 with 256. I fill it up with bard books and podcasts primarily
