Hi Isaac. Screen curtain is like a curtain that goes over the screen so know one knows that you are writing confidential text or document so that if a sighted person looks at your phone the screen is blank. I think you can do it on the Macs too. I did this once and as I wanted a sighted person to look at my I phone's display, thought this was odd until I remembered that I had left the screen curtain on so naturally the sighted person could not see the display on my phone.
Hope this helps. Kawal. On 22 Nov 2010, at 15:55, Isaac Obie wrote: > Hi Kawal, > What is the meaning of this screen curtain thing? Why is it important whether > it's off or on?
