If you're using a phone or GPS with a touch screen, here's how to let you keep your gloves on while using it:

Pretty neat, and it only involves a small amount of manual labor.

Well that is pretty good information I have recently purchased Iphone and face trouble while wearing gloves. I haven't tried yet I think I have to make this article read by my GF and let her do what exactly that article explain.

i have no trouble with my GPS touchscreen with gloves on and they don't have thinsulate either ( aluminium foil insulation) which might be a good idea for those that do have trouble.
Hmmm, all my gloves are leather, perhaps why they work ok. Maybe just synthetic materials that don't trigger capacitive screens.
