Watch Cover To Lock

Is there a way of disabling that cover to lock feature on the Watch? It seems to get triggered by almost anything that passes over the watch screen, and this is extremely inconvenient for situations such as recording when locking the screen will stop a recording (huge fail, Apple). -- The

No. KNFBReader is more designed to scan using the camera. I attempted to scan a 51 page PDF (it was a scanned image) and not everything got scanned. However, I used a desktop app with fantastic results. On 11/1/2016 11:12 PM, kelby carlson wrote: > If I receive a scan of a PDF where the scanner

Turning your brightness down to 0 percent will not prevent people from being able to see your screen. Always use Screen Curtain. On 10/27/2016 9:22 PM, Louise Peyton wrote: > Thank you. > Louise > > -Original Message- > From: viphone@googlegroups.com [mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com] On

Re: Update on my Uber Question

That is actually not Uber's official policy. Some drivers want you to do that so they can gain another booking fee, most drivers however will wait for you if you ask, without you having to request another trip. The latter option was endorsed by an Uber customer service agent. -Shaf On 10/27/2016

Yes, the new model is fantastic. I have it paired to my Watch and Phone (it sucks because it's bluetooth), but it's really useful. On 10/24/2016 8:39 AM, kg7...@juno.com wrote: > Hi Paul, I use the After Shox and really like them. I understand the new > titanium model is even lighter, and more
