I've mastered NO technology... I have an Ipod (not phone) and I like to
Take pictures and videos... but when I am in the sun, I cannot see the
Screen.

People with Smartphones hold theirs up and I see their screen clearly.
Am I missing how to get light in the sun or does one need a smartphone?

Adjust the brightness. If you have a current iPod with ios 7 or greater, then on the home screen swipe up. You will see a control panel. Increase the slider for brightness as far as you can . It will make the screen bright.

If that doesn't work, look at the case you have for it and make sure it doesn't have a shading or tinting effect.

Used... it works beautifully... wish I had it during the march yesterday in the
City... but I now have it for the future... thank you so much for this... I'm such
A technical dunderhead... my brightness is growing dim in my senior years..
