If you have difficulty performing gestures, the rivo is a good choice. The only thing I don’t like is the firmware update process. I wish for a cable and an IOS app. The new version is much easier to use than the earlier version with its larger keys. I have no problems with gestures, but some of the students in an iPhone class I taught could benefit from a rivo since they have neuropathy. if you feel more comfortable pushing buttons like on the old flip phone, then the Revo is a good alternative for that reason.
Gregg can you do things like check and reply to emails, and browse the web with the Rivo2? Yes I have issues with touch screens. Have you tried it on Android or just IOS?
I have only used the rivo on the iPhone. It can be used on all IOS devices. Here is the link to the manual which gives all of the functions. http://rivo.me/manual/en/rivo_2.2_en
Hi, Thank you for that. I didn't see where it specifically said it could do email or the web that is why I asked. When you got yours did you have to update it? How do you know if it needs a firmware update?
I received notification of an update by email. The Revo will work well with the native male client as well as Safari. I’ve also used it with a number of other Browsers. The big advantage is that it makes rotor commands easier to perform than you can with the normal gestures in voiceover.e
Hi,
I've herd demos and reviews on the keyboard, but I've never tried it. I'm sure it's an excellent solution for users that don't prefer to use the touch screen, and the fact that it has a built-in speaker and microphone, and that you could put it in your pocket and use just the functions from within the keyboard. very easy. again, I have not tried the keyboard, but I hope other users found it useful.
