[blindlaw] Legal work in iOS 10

[Shelley Richards]

I have not really noticed any significant difference between IOS 9 and
IOS 10 for dictation purposes.  However, I only ever use dictation for
texting, shorter emails, and occationally facebook.  I also randomly
use it to type in words I just can't figure out how to spell lol.  For
anything more than a short message I use a Bluetooth keyboard.  I
would suggest though, if you are using dictation more extensively you
might want to try dragon dictation.  I played around with the app a
little, and it seems to be more accurate than the built in dictation,
and I have heard that it works better for dictating more extensively.
How do you find Pages to be, as far as easy to work with?  I have
tried it a few times, and I have always found it frustrating to work
with.  Not necessarily because of accessibility issues, but just
because I cannot get comfortable with its entire set up.  There may be
accessibility issues at play too, but I don't think so.  I always find
myself just giving up on it and going back to word instead.  Do you
eventually get better at using it, or is it truly just not as good of
a word processor as MS word is?
