Shell Phone Show - Disabling the Touchscreen on the BlindShell Classic 3 w ad

In this episode, Adrian—aka Driza —shows you how to turn off the touchscreen on the BlindShell Classic 3. While the phone is primarily button-based like the Classic 2, third-party apps from the Aurora Store can activate touchscreen functionality. Adrian walks you through using the touchscreen in Be My Eyes, then demonstrates how to disable it entirely by using the pound (#) key.  You’ll also learn how to switch the touchscreen back on if needed, and why some apps might require it for full access. It’s a quick, hands-on walkthrough for users who prefer the physical buttons or want to avoid accidental swipes. Got questions?
