Hello Blake, Thanks for your suggestion about the four-finger tap at the bottom of the screen. It is a big help. However, I must have large fingers because I can't always squeeze all four of them onto the iPhone when it is in portrait mode. Even after going into the VO training section and practicing quite a bit, my phone frequently registered three fingers, not four, although it sure did feel as if four fingers were touching the glass part of the phone. I may have to get used to using WhatsApp in landscape mode.
