Smart phones have had plenty of affordances for blind people. But they didn’t say he was blind or unable to use a smart phone

Is it because of physical limitations or stubbornness to learn like my 83 year old dad?

I don’t know but I wouldn’t be so quick to dismiss it. IME many elderly people genuinely struggle and some mask their embarrassment with a stubborn attitude.

In the case of my dad, he is really into music - mostly around playing for the church. He is always on YouTube - on his phone - learning about music equipment, mixers, etc.

He is motivated to do that because he wants to.
