Google Latitude is a location-aware mobile app developed by Google as a successor to its earlier SMS-based service Dodgeball. Latitude allows a mobile phone user to allow certain people to view their current location. Via their own Google Account, the user's cell phone location is mapped on Google Maps. The user can control the accuracy and details of what each of the other users can see - an exact location can be allowed, or it can be limited to identifying the city only. For privacy, it can also be turned off by the user, or a location can be manually entered. Users have to explicitly opt in to Latitude, and may only see the location of those friends who have decided to share their location with them. app for IOS: http://itunes.apple.com/in/app/google-latitude/id306586497?mt=8 On 8/30/12, Richard Turner richard.turne...@gmail.com wrote: What is Google Latitude? -Original Message- From: viphone@googlegroups.com [mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Srikanth Kanuri Sent: Wednesday, August 29, 2012 8:12 PM To: viphone Subject: google latitude? hi all, is Google latitude accessible? thanks Srikanth -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the VIPhone Google Group.

Re: Muxic is an App Worth Checking Out
I'm not entirely sure what's causing the sluggishness. I never noticed it myself, but then again, I'm not a VoiceOver user. What I can tell you guys, is that there's a TON of things going on audio-wise behind the scenes in the app. Not only is it validating timing for crossfade, but it's also handling audio normalization, etc, etc. I'm wondering if VoiceOver is affected by the heavy use of the audio system. Here's a test... could someone run this for me? Turn off Normalization entirely, and let me know if you still have the same issue. Unfortunately, this is one of those that I'm not sure I'll be able to fix. That being said, the frequent crashes should be fixed in the next few days when Apple pushes the latest version to the App Store. I've fixed the two Title sections at the top of the Queue page for the release after that, and I've also added a few more goodies. Do be aware that in version 4.0, I'm moving the Stations tab to the library (where it probably should have been all along), and I'm creating a Similar tab that will provide you with personalized music suggestions based on the music that is already in your library. Again, let me know if there's anything I can do for any of you, and thanks for downloading and being patient as I work through some of the kinks.

Hello All.

However, if I call my bank, I am unable to key in numbers such for my account number and other info required so that I can use the automated service as when I bring up the dial pad, the numbers are displayed across rather than a traditional dial pad where you get one two three and then you move down a row and you get four five six you get the picture.

Re: converting files to ePub for reading on iDevices?
Thank you all for your feedback! I'll give stanza a try and see how well it works. I've tried renaming files with the xml extention to html, and it didn't quite work out. I wanted the xml version of the file converted, as this would preserve any formatting attributes found in the DAISY content. As it stands, I'm much more impressed with the readability of files available in the iBooks app, than I am the read2go app. Being able to search text, being able to use the command to move by page, and the fact that braille support just seems better in iBooks are my reasons for choosing it over Read2go. Thank you all again for your responses!

RE: converting files to ePub for reading on iDevices?
I do believe that Calibre while inaccessible with screen readers can still be used to convert using the command line prompt.

RE: A Skype Query on the I Phone.
Hi Kawal, OK, here is a full explanation of the buttons and how to use them after you initiate a call. I did not include a description of the Contacts tab and the Call Phones tab as they are mostly self-explanatory. I am not sure where you see the numbers displayed straight across, any time I use Skype and bring up the DialPad during a call I get a normal telephone style DialPad. Now, I think you are in the UK and I do remember something about Anne from France having this issue although I can't remember if it was with Skype or the regular Phone app so I guess this could be something that has to do with the European region settings, but that's only speculation. After you call your bank and the call has connected, you will have 5 buttons at the bottom of the screen, from left to right they are: Mute Double tap to mute/unmute the call Earpiece Double tap and just above and in the middle you get Speakerphone and Earpiece options. Double tap on Speakerphone and the call will switch to Speakerphone. At that point the Earpiece button in the bottom row is now called Speakerphone. Double tap it again and you can choose Earpiece above to switch back to the earpiece. Please note that if you use a headset when you start the call the Earpiece button is called Headset and your options above after double tapping it are Speakerphone and Headset. Dialpad This will pull up a typical phone style DialPad with 1, 2, 3 at the top, 4, 5, 6 below, 7, 8m 9 below that and * 0 and # which in Skype is called Hash at the very bottom. I can't remember if the DialPad that comes up when you are in a call used to have the letters on it, but if it did they are now gone. However, they are still there on the main DialPad which comes up when you double tap on the Call Phones tab. If, for example, you find the 2 and then slide down a tiny bit you will hear ABC before you get to the 5. Now, only thing to keep in mind is that the Skype DialPad does not work with the touch typing method so you do have to double tap or split tab on the numbers to dial them. But I did just test this to make sure nothing has changed, I called my Mastercard toll free number, I could easily enter 1 for English and then my 16-digit card number. I find split tapping here works better as it's a bit faster. Now on to the next button: Show Options This button brings up some options above, Show Messages and Show All Messages. However, I noticed just today that if you slide your finger up from the Show Messages or flick left, Voiceover announces the call duration, then the name of the contact or phone number you dialed and right at the very top or where you can't flick left any further there is also a Show Dialpad button which will bring up the Dialpad. It is, of course, easier to just double tap on the Dialpad button, but it's there. If you double tap Show Messages, the call window disappears and you are placed in the messages tab and see all messages related to whoever you are currently calling. If it is a Skype Out number, you would just see all call start/end times and call durations. If it is a Skype contact and you exchanged text messages, you would see those as well. If you double tap on the Show All Messages button the active call window disappears and you are placed in the main Messages tab where all your contacts are listed with whom you exchanged messages or placed calls. You can double tab on any of them to see all the details. At the bottom you have 4 tabs, from left to right they are: Contacts This displays all your contacts Messages This will show as selected and of course displays all your messages Active Call This will take you back to your active call window where you get back your initial options and can hang up. If you are not in a call this tab is called Call Phones My Info Here you can change your Avatar, sign out, type a mood message, see/change your status, go into your profile, see how much Skype credit you have, see the status of your Skype number if you have one and the same for voice messages and call forwarding. At the bottom is the About Skype which displays version information. OK, now back to the last button on the very bottom right of the active call window: End Call As the name indicates, this will hang up the call. A few final remarks: If you are calling a Skype contact there is no DialPad button, but the first button on the left is now Video. The other 4 buttons are still there, but Mute is now second from the left, Earpiece/Headset is now in the middle right above the Home key where the Dialpad button is for a regular phone call and Show Options and End Call are the same. If you start a voice call you can double tap the Video button on the very bottom left and start the camera. Skype will use the front camera (facing you) by default, but once video is going you can double tap the Video button again and above and in the middle you then have 2 options and those are
Re: NFL App question.
There are two I can think of right off, both are accessible. One is called Pro Football Radio and Media, and the other is called Pro Football Radio and Live Scores. Both offer different tidbits, like the Live Scores app offers constantly updated scores when listening to a game or browsing through the games on at the time. Both have similar layouts across the bottom, such as schedules, teams, and so forth. The Live Scores app lets you mark certain stations as favorites, and then access them from the favorites tab on the bottom of most app screens, as well as showing the frequency and call letters of stations for each team. The Pro Football Radio and Media app lets you listen to podcasts on your favorite team which offer may include game highlights of the prior game's activity and scoring. As I say, both are equally accessible and cost $0.99 in the App Store. My favorite is Pro Football Radio and Live Scores, for the live scores, the ability to see station information, and the ability to mark stations as favorites. I also like how the schedule screen is laid out, showing past games, and live/final games. There are other apps for listening to games, but these are the ones I know about and have tried.

RE: A Skype Query on the I Phone.
Hi again, Kawal, I would assume it can be done, but it is currently not possible. This would be something for a feedback message to Skype requesting that they allow for touch typing on their DialPad. Maybe others on the list who know more about this can chime in because for all I know Apple might have put a restriction on where you can use touch typing. Strictly speaking a DialPad is not an edit field so maybe it can't be done. Anyhow, if you practice your split tapping where you find the number you want with one finger and then touch the screen with a second finger to dial it you may find this works quite well. I find it easier and quicker than double tapping each number. Regards, Sieghard -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the VIPhone Google Group.

Re: Muxic app help
Thom, I'm David Morton. I wrote the application. Yes, version 3.0, which is what you have, is crashing alot. This is extremely frustrating to me to see so many users experiencing problems. That being said, there's good news. I've fixed the bugs that are causing most of the crashes. And now for more bad news: It takes Apple about 10 days right now to review and approve. By that measure, we're looking at an update actually hitting the app store sometime in the middle of next week. Again, I apologize for the crashes, and extremely disappointed in myself for letting them escape, but they should be fixed soon. -David On Tuesday, September 4, 2012 7:49:25 AM UTC-5, Thom3of5 wrote: Hi listers, I bought the Muxic app yesterday.

Re: converting files to ePub for reading on iDevices?
Right, you have to open the xml with a web browser, copy the text to the clipboard, and then press alt f to get in to the file menu and choose create new from clipboard. The shortcut keys for various things don't seem to work, but you can access the menu structure through the one that does work, alt f. Then, Just hit alt f again, and go to save as and enter the book name followed by the .epub extention. Also, since iBooks indexes books based on the information you can edit in this program, you need to set the title and author accordingly. Do so by pressing alt V, and then arrowing down to book info. You can backspace out the title of unknown and enter whatever you want. Also note that the next field you get to when tabbing will say genre but it's mislabled. It's actually the author. After saving the file where ever you want, copy it to Dropbox, open Dropbox app on phone, find file, open file, and then go down to the lower right corner of the screen on your iDevice and double tap the export button. Choose to export to iBooks, and then wait. Once the export process has completed, the file will be in your iBooks library and iBooks will open the file for reading.

I never noticed it myself, but then again, I'm not a VoiceOver user. What I can tell you guys, is that there's a TON of things going on audio-wise behind the scenes in the app. Not only is it validating timing for crossfade, but it's also handling audio normalization, etc, etc. I'm wondering if VoiceOver is affected by the heavy use of the audio system. Here's a test... could someone run this for me? Turn off Normalization entirely, and let me know if you still have the same issue. Unfortunately, this is one of those that I'm not sure I'll be able to fix. That being said, the frequent crashes should be fixed in the next few days when Apple pushes the latest version to the App Store. I've fixed the two Title sections at the top of the Queue page for the release after that, and I've also added a few more goodies. Do be aware that in version 4.0, I'm moving the Stations tab to the library (where it probably should have been all along), and I'm creating a Similar tab that will provide you with personalized music suggestions based on the music that is already in your library.

Re: digit-eyes, identifying unknown labels?
Hi Erik, I talked to you this morning and (oddly) to another person with the identical issue. The problem (at least then) was that your client had purchased the washable code 128 labels from Envision America and, when our software finds these, we just report what the number is and don't allow recording. To record using Digit-Eyes, you need to either print your own Digit-eyes labels (which is free) or buy the washable ones from us. At least at present. To set up the accessibility settings on the iPhone, go to settings - general - accessibility - voiceover and set them as you need.

Re: converting files to ePub for reading on iDevices?
Does it keep the headings in tact for you? I get thousands of page breaks and no headings when I convert xml files to epub. - Original Message - From: Scott Davert scottslistm...@gmail.com To: viphone@googlegroups.com Sent: Wednesday, September 05, 2012 12:48 PM Subject: Re: converting files to ePub for reading on iDevices? Right, you have to open the xml with a web browser, copy the text to the clipboard, and then press alt f to get in to the file menu and choose create new from clipboard. The shortcut keys for various things don't seem to work, but you can access the menu structure through the one that does work, alt f. Then, Just hit alt f again, and go to save as and enter the book name followed by the .epub extention. Also, since iBooks indexes books based on the information you can edit in this program, you need to set the title and author accordingly. Do so by pressing alt V, and then arrowing down to book info. You can backspace out the title of unknown and enter whatever you want. Also note that the next field you get to when tabbing will say genre but it's mislabled. It's actually the author. After saving the file where ever you want, copy it to Dropbox, open Dropbox app on phone, find file, open file, and then go down to the lower right corner of the screen on your iDevice and double tap the export button. Choose to export to iBooks, and then wait. Once the export process has completed, the file will be in your iBooks library and iBooks will open the file for reading.

general question about the weather radio app and push notifications
Several people on this list have mentioned a weather radio app that allows alerts to be set up. I saw 2 weather radio apps in the app store. One was the NOAA weather radio app that costs $4.95. Is this the one you're referring to? On a different topic, what are push notifications? Does one have to do something with the phone to hear them? Thanks. God bless!

Re: digit-eyes, identifying unknown labels?
Hi nancy, it really was a pleasure speaking with you this morning. I know all about the accessibility settings. The problem was that on the company ipad that I borrowed for testing, another instructor spurriously changed the tripple click home setting to switch contrast. Words will be had... My client was pretty disapointed about the wait, but I know it will all be worth it. Now, if only we could have digit-eyes for android so that I could use it. :) just sayin.

The problem (at least then) was that your client had purchased the washable code 128 labels from Envision America and, when our software finds these, we just report what the number is and don't allow recording. To record using Digit-Eyes, you need to either print your own Digit-eyes labels (which is free) or buy the washable ones from us. At least at present.

I wrote the application. Yes, version 3.0, which is what you have, is crashing alot. This is extremely frustrating to me to see so many users experiencing problems. That being said, there's good news. I've fixed the bugs that are causing most of the crashes. And now for more bad news: It takes Apple about 10 days right now to review and approve. By that measure, we're looking at an update actually hitting the app store sometime in the middle of next week. Again, I apologize for the crashes, and extremely disappointed in myself for letting them escape, but they should be fixed soon. -David On Tuesday, September 4, 2012 7:49:25 AM UTC-5, Thom3of5 wrote: Hi listers, I bought the Muxic app yesterday.

Re: A Skype Query on the I Phone.
Hi Sieghard. Thanks for your full explanation and yes you are right about the dial Pad coming up correctly whilst in a call as I did it just now although I am not fast enough to put in the numbers as I need to practice as I am not use to tapping twice to enter a number as I use touch typing on my I phone. I will look at your e-mail slowly to try and picture what you say when I next use Skype on my I phone and there was no difference in what you said as now for some reason the dial pad is showing correctly. Do you know who to contact if I wish to ask if the numbers can be made like the I phone? Thanks in advance. Kawal.On 5 Sep 2012, at 04:45 PM, Sieghard Weitzel siegh...@live.ca wrote: Hi Kawal, OK, here is a full explanation of the buttons and how to use them after you initiate a call. I did not include a description of the Contacts tab and the Call Phones tab as they are mostly self-explanatory. I am not sure where you see the numbers displayed straight across, any time I use Skype and bring up the DialPad during a call I get a normal telephone style DialPad. Now, I think you are in the UK and I do remember something about Anne from France having this issue although I can’t remember if it was with Skype or the regular Phone app so I guess this could be something that has to do with the European region settings, but that’s only speculation. After you call your bank and the call has connected, you will have 5 buttons at the bottom of the screen, from left to right they are: Mute Double tap to mute/unmute the call Earpiece Double tap and just above and in the middle you get “Speakerphone” and “Earpiece” options. Double tap on Speakerphone and the call will switch to Speakerphone. At that point the “Earpiece” button in the bottom row is now called “Speakerphone”. Double tap it again and you can choose “Earpiece” above to switch back to the earpiece. Please note that if you use a headset when you start the call the “Earpiece” button is called “Headset” and your options above after double tapping it are “Speakerphone” and “Headset”. Dialpad This will pull up a typical phone style DialPad with 1, 2, 3 at the top, 4, 5, 6 below, 7, 8m 9 below that and * 0 and # which in Skype is called “Hash” at the very bottom. I can’t remember if the DialPad that comes up when you are in a call used to have the letters on it, but if it did they are now gone. However, they are still there on the main DialPad which comes up when you double tap on the “Call Phones” tab. If, for example, you find the “2” and then slide down a tiny bit you will hear “ABC” before you get to the 5. Now, only thing to keep in mind is that the Skype DialPad does not work with the touch typing method so you do have to double tap or split tab on the numbers to dial them. But I did just test this to make sure nothing has changed, I called my Mastercard toll free number, I could easily enter “1” for English and then my 16-digit card number. I find split tapping here works better as it’s a bit faster. Now on to the next button: Show Options This button brings up some options above, “Show Messages” and “Show All Messages”. However, I noticed just today that if you slide your finger up from the “Show Messages” or flick left, Voiceover announces the call duration, then the name of the contact or phone number you dialed and right at the very top or where you can’t flick left any further there is also a “Show Dialpad” button which will bring up the Dialpad. It is, of course, easier to just double tap on the “Dialpad” button, but it’s there. If you double tap “Show Messages”, the call window disappears and you are placed in the messages tab and see all messages related to whoever you are currently calling. If it is a Skype Out number, you would just see all call start/end times and call durations. If it is a Skype contact and you exchanged text messages, you would see those as well. If you double tap on the “Show All Messages” button the active call window disappears and you are placed in the main Messages tab where all your contacts are listed with whom you exchanged messages or placed calls. You can double tab on any of them to see all the details. At the bottom you have 4 tabs, from left to right they are: Contacts This displays all your contacts Messages This will show as “selected” and of course displays all your messages Active Call This will take you back to your active call window where you get back your initial options and can hang up. If you are not in a call this tab is called “Call Phones” My Info Here you can change your Avatar, sign out, type a mood message, see/change your status, go into your profile, see how much Skype credit you have, see the status of your Skype number if you have one and the same for voice messages and call forwarding. At the bottom is the “About Skype” which displays

What I can tell you guys, is that there's a TON of things going on audio-wise behind the scenes in the app. Not only is it validating timing for crossfade, but it's also handling audio normalization, etc, etc. I'm wondering if VoiceOver is affected by the heavy use of the audio system. Here's a test... could someone run this for me? Turn off Normalization entirely, and let me know if you still have the same issue. Unfortunately, this is one of those that I'm not sure I'll be able to fix.

I've fixed the two Title sections at the top of the Queue page for the release after that, and I've also added a few more goodies.

App to compress mobile data
Hi All, There is a new app in the app store named Snappli that will do video and data compression on the fly. What does this mean? So lets say you go to YouTube and view a 1 meg video. Snappli will compress the incoming video stream to anywhere between 600K and 800K. That's 20 to 40%. Why should you care? Well if you have a data cap of 500 meg or 2 Gig then you can stream 20 to 40% more stuff before reaching your data cap. And here's the best part. It's free! And before you ask, no I don't have the iTunes url. Just search for S N A P P L I in the app store. Have fun Keith -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the VIPhone Google Group.

Focus or other Facebook app
Is there a paid version of Focus for Facebook? If not, can someone tell me how to fix this, please. I was running down my unread feed. At the bottom of the screen is always an iAdd. By accident I touched the screen with another finger which took me into the iAdd. I found the close add button, but when I got back to my previous screen there was nothing on the screen. The only place I could find the feed was in the dock. When I tapped on the item it did nothing. I could not back out of the feed or go forward. I closed the app and re-opened, but still I was in that same sdcreen. I had to completely turn off my phone and re-start it to have the feed show correctly. I thought this was just a fluke (bad operator), but I did it on purpose twice more so I know this is what happens. What is the best app for Facebook other than Focus o is there a way to stop the adds from messing up the app if opened by accident or even on purpose? Another question about Focus. Is there a way to friend or accept friend requests on Focus itself or do I have to go to the site? I truly like Focus. It is straightforward without a lot of junk to wade through, but I really need to know how to fix if I am going to continue using it. Thanks in advance for any help given.

Re: A Skype Query on the I Phone.
Hello, Rather than double-tapping, try split-tapping on the buttons. To split-tap, place a finger on the button you want. Touch and release the screen with another finger. When you lift the second finger, the selected button (number, call, Etc.) will be activated. I find this method to be almost as fast as touch-typing. Some have reported it to be faster with experience.

I am not sure where you see the numbers displayed straight across, any time I use Skype and bring up the DialPad during a call I get a normal telephone style DialPad. Now, I think you are in the UK and I do remember something about Anne from France having this issue although I can’t remember if it was with Skype or the regular Phone app so I guess this could be something that has to do with the European region settings, but that’s only speculation. After you call your bank and the call has connected, you will have 5 buttons at the bottom of the screen, from left to right they are: Mute Double tap to mute/unmute the call Earpiece Double tap and just above and in the middle you get “Speakerphone” and “Earpiece” options. Double tap on Speakerphone and the call will switch to Speakerphone. At that point the “Earpiece” button in the bottom row is now called “Speakerphone”. Double tap it again and you can choose “Earpiece” above to switch back to the earpiece. Please note that if you use a headset when you start the call the “Earpiece” button is called “Headset” and your options above after double tapping it are “Speakerphone” and “Headset”. Dialpad This will pull up a typical phone style DialPad with 1, 2, 3 at the top, 4, 5, 6 below, 7, 8m 9 below that and * 0 and # which in Skype is called “Hash” at the very bottom. I can’t remember if the DialPad that comes up when you are in a call used to have the letters on it, but if it did they are now gone. However, they are still there on the main DialPad which comes up when you double tap on the “Call Phones” tab. If, for example, you find the “2” and then slide down a tiny bit you will hear “ABC” before you get to the 5. Now, only thing to keep in mind is that the Skype DialPad does not work with the touch typing method so you do have to double tap or split tab on the numbers to dial them. But I did just test this to make sure nothing has changed, I called my Mastercard toll free number, I could easily enter “1” for English and then my 16-digit card number. I find split tapping here works better as it’s a bit faster. Now on to the next button: Show Options This button brings up some options above, “Show Messages” and “Show All Messages”. However, I noticed just today that if you slide your finger up from the “Show Messages” or flick left, Voiceover announces the call duration, then the name of the contact or phone number you dialed and right at the very top or where you can’t flick left any further there is also a “Show Dialpad” button which will bring up the Dialpad. It is, of course, easier to just double tap on the “Dialpad” button, but it’s there. If you double tap “Show Messages”, the call window disappears and you are placed in the messages tab and see all messages related to whoever you are currently calling. If it is a Skype Out number, you would just see all call start/end times and call durations. If it is a Skype contact and you exchanged text messages, you would see those as well. If you double tap on the “Show All Messages” button the active call window disappears and you are placed in the main Messages tab where all your contacts are listed with whom you exchanged messages or placed calls. You can double tab on any of them to see all the details. At the bottom you have 4 tabs, from left to right they are: Contacts This displays all your contacts Messages This will show

Somewhere there should be a link to buy the full version and I believe after you tap it you should find a $7.99 Buy button or something like that just as you normally have when you buy an app in the app store. Tap on that, you will be asked for your Apple Id and password and then the full functionality should be unlocked.

RE: A Skype Query on the I Phone.
Hello Kawal, I read a bit more about this issue with the keypad not working in touch typing mode and it appears that this currently is an iOS limitation. You might want to send an email to accessibil...@apple.com and just ask them why you are not able to use the touch typing method with the Skype DialPad. It would be interesting to see how they explain this. Of course iOS 6 is coming out in about 2 weeks so maybe this will allow for this which would mean a future Skype update then could make use of the touch typing method on the DialPad. As far as sending this to Skype, you can go to the My Info tab at the bottom right of the main screen, then at the very bottom of that list tap on About Skype and then swipe right until you hear Send Feedback and double tap. I think this opens either a form or email.

Re: Muxic Question
The update released today in the US app store is supposed to fix crashing issues, according to the developer. I've also turned normalization off and have experienced less sluggishness. I won't say it is gone altogether, but definitely not nearly as much. I'm also able to use other apps while Muxic is going in the background, which before there was a delay with this. I would love to be able to use normalization though without the sluggishness, since not all of my tunes are at the same levels. Perhaps the next iPhone will assist with some of these intensive processes. Wayne On 9/5/12, Tamara Rorie, Esq. catlady4...@gmail.com wrote: Hi List: I got the app yesterday and am loving it.

Hello All. Now that the Skype application is more accessible on the I phone and as I got rid of my Skype Adaptor which I was using on my chordless phone at home but using it no more, I am wishing to use Skype on my I phone to burn my unused credit. However, if I call my bank, I am unable to key in numbers such for my account number and other info required so that I can use the automated service as when I bring up the dial pad, the numbers are displayed across rather than a traditional dial pad where you get one two three and then you move down a row and you get four five six you get the picture. Can some one tell me if they have ever been able to key in numbers when you are using skype whilst on another call using it? If not, who to contact to make this feature accessible namely the person who is in charge of making this application more accessible please? I know this question may be better on the I phone list, but I do not belong to that. Thanks in advance. Kawal. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the VIPhone Google Group.
