Is there some explanation somewhere of what a virtual mouse and apk install looks like and how to install it. It would be helpful for my decision making if I could see someone using a virtual mouse on one of these phones.

I currently have a cat s22 and I dislike having to touch the screen all the time. What I would prefer is to have modern apps place the selection cursor by default somewhere in the app and then be able to use the arrow keys to move from icon to icon within the app. I am assuming based on this post that the days of that kind of design are gone (very sad, a truly underappreciated art form) but it would be nice to have some confirmation.

I believed I installed Old T9 so I can make full use of the keypads. Although if you do web browsing, certain web doesn’t allow the T9 to do its job so you may need to touch the screen as well. Usually when I use the keypads, it’ll highlight areas that I need to click. Perhaps this video makes more sense of my explanations — https://drive.google.com/file/d/1T_mDO1-sR8aoaiRPXxTw3kodixGIuqj3
