I'm not sure about heart attacks or stroke, but it will notify you if your
resting heart rate goes above 120 BPM, you can do an ECG, and depending on
which Apple Watch you have you could check your blood oxygen level. You can
also use it to track your sleep. It isn't always accurate, but it
does have that, but
the Mantis does not.

BrailleSense 6, so at least you weren't

Hi Donna,
I tested several Orbit Readers for my braille and talking book library, and
they all broke down within a few months, if not sooner. I loved the braille

This is true, unless you have enabled the new Stolen Device Protection feature.
When Stolen Device Protection is enabled, then passcode bypass is disabled, and
only biometric authorization is allowed.

Hi all,
Just got this device, and
There's also Brok the InvestiGator, which was nominated for a Golden Apple on

It wouldn't hurt to contact whoever is in charge of distributing the eReader
and troubleshooting problems. My state has the Zoomax also, but I've heard
things about it that make me hesitant to request one. Good luck.

I'm glad you're enjoying both of your Shokz headsets. I've had the OpenComm
headset for quite a while, but I haven't used them in a very long time because
they don't seem to fit correctly. I feel like every time I move a muscle I have
to adjust them so that they don't fall off. The OpenFit do

That happens to me sometimes too. Someone texted a link to me, and although
Links didn't show up in the rotor, I was able to activate the link by
double-tapping on it. I'm not sure whether that will always work or I was
lucky, but try that and see if it works.

I know there are people who have had good luck with Orbit displays, but I don't

regional braille and talking library, and all had dot issues within a few
months if not weeks. Sometime after the Orbit Reader 20 Plus
Hi. I want to download my music to my Mac, and have already started. I have a

Hello. My name is Jessica (or Jess). I recently got a MacBook Air, which is my
first Mac. For quite a while I relied on just my iPhone or my braille notetaker
to do things, but I decided it would be good to have a Mac as well. I'm looking
forward to learning from the people on this list.
