Smart phones have revolutionized access to information and the conduct of the business in daily life for everyone including people with non-standard eyesight.
These devices are very intuitive. How we use them is personal and their presence usually becomes prominent in our daily lives. You must own the device to learn to use it and you must be willing to work at it on your own. You must dare to try new things and search for information yourself. This is the only way to truly learn to use one of these devices.
Once you have obtained the device your intellectual journey can begin. Below I have listed some links to help you get started. Happy exploring.
