@isleofeigg I do a lot of volunteering, helping "older " folk to use technology. It's a laugh as half of them are younger than me.
But I now always show them how to dictate messages, emails, postings on social media … dead easy once you master clear separations between words, and punctuation. You can then edit the mistakes using a keyboard as usual.
I'm sure you can see how that may partly answer your question …
