Subject: GPS options for my 3-GS


Although this probably borders on heresy for this list, I use my iPhone
3-GS exclusively as a wifi device, no phone service other than Skype.  I
do so because I am not anxious to incur exorbitant charges for data. One
thing which I presently do not have is GPS access.

Something I read from a couple of messages this afternoon suggested that
if I used an external GPS receiver with my 3-GS, I would not incur data
charges.  I may well have misunderstood.  So now for the questions. If I
purchase an external GPS receiver, will this somehow obviate the need
for cellular data?  The only external GPS receiver I have heard of is
something called Bad Elf. Are there better choices? Lastly, if I bite
the bullet and purchase a data plan, is there any sort of GPS receiver
in my 3-GS?

Thanks for any feedback.

Re: GPS options for my 3-GS

2013-03-04 Thread Ari Moisio

Hi

Assisted  GPS will use few kilobutes of data to get the GPS almanac. This 
will however only speedup the  start of receiver.  I'm not  sure if it can 
be disabled on  iPHone.


External receivers do not use AGPS over the cellular network.

  Hi, the link below is to a very short demo of the totally different way the 
microphone on the iPhone 5 can sound when you take away apple's processing. I 
don't know other apps that do this, but Fire 2 definitely does. You have the 
way to control the volume, compression, limiter and other audio features. There 
is a setting in the app that allows you to completely turn off the microphone 
processing done by apple.

   

  First I use List Recorder to record the actual sound of the microphone with 
all of apple's audio processing turned on, which is the only way most apps can 
do it.

   

  Next, there is a recording made in Fire 2 with the processing turned off.

   

  Enjoy.

Re: A couple of apps that are fully VO compliant

2013-03-04 Thread Keith Watson
James,

Actually it's fully accessible and does exactly what it claims to do. The only 
information it gives is the current temp and the high for the next five days. 
It's a minimal app. No clutter. You want more info go use weather bug or some 
other app that goes in depth. You want minimalist then Conditions is for you.

 label all of the possibilities since it doesn't tell you they are
 there. So it is too minimal for me and I like more details, not less
 anyway. JMO. I guess this developer seems to think giving details in a

 The first is called VO Calendar. Its a calendar app that is written
 specifically for blind users. Sort of high priced but worth it in my
 opinion. Anything that saves me time and aggravation is worth $10 in my
 book. Give it a look see.
 
 The second app is called Conditions. It's a very simple weather app that
 is also fully VO compatible. It's 99 cents and worth throwing a buck at the
 programmer just because he included VO in his thoughts while writing this

Unfortunately, the best one can do in your situation is to do a single 
finger double tap on a number and look at the ladder theme.  If it seems 
like you've played it before, then double tap the back button and hit the 
next number in the line.


I'm not sure if this is a bug in the game, or if sighted people actually 
see titles in place of the numbers, but I'll ask my daughter when she's 
got a minute and let you know.

Re: Wired Single EarEarphones Recommendation

2013-03-04 Thread Sherrie
I just snipped off the left ear cord of my Apple earpods and it works just 
great.  I, too, only want one ear tied to the phone so I can be aware of 
what is going on around me.  I bought a Blue ant single ear blue tooth but 
don't like it as much as the wired one since you can't answer a Siri 
question or turn music or books on and off with it.
So I use the wired one.  Usually have phone in my pocket and run the wire 
under my shirt so it doesn't catch on things and is not so obvious.  But I 
am very pleased with the single ear piece of the ear pods.

I don't know if this would be something you'd want to do but, you could buy

I tried the Apple store but didn't come across anything. It would be

 Hi, the link below is to a very short demo of the totally different way the 
 microphone on the iPhone 5 can sound when you take away apple’s processing. I 
 don’t know other apps that do this, but Fire 2 definitely does. You have the 
 way to control the volume, compression, limiter and other audio features. 
 There is a setting in the app that allows you to completely turn off the 
 microphone processing done by apple.
  
 First I use List Recorder to record the actual sound of the microphone with 
 all of apple’s audio processing turned on, which is the only way most apps 
 can do it.
  
 Next, there is a recording made in Fire 2 with the processing turned off.
  
 Enjoy.

RE: A couple of apps that are fully VO compliant

2013-03-04 Thread Ron Pelletier
Hi,

In that case, I may have the right app.  I thought I had the wrong one
because its not accessible and I was told it was.  I guess yu could slide
your finger down to the row of days and then slide down to the temperature
but if you don't slide down perfectly straight, there is no way to find out
if you are on the right temperature for that day.  It only gives the maximum
and not the minimum.

Not absolutely sure but, if I have the right app, its not even worth the
dollar to me.  I'm waiting for an answer on the name of the developer to see
if for sure I have the right app.

I found conditions not to be completely accessible actually. I can see
enough to know there are graphics that show what it is going to be like each
day and voiceover says nothing about these graphics. It does not even tell
you graphics are there. So I don't even think you could label all of the
possibilities since it doesn't tell you they are there. So it is too minimal
for me and I like more details, not less anyway. JMO. I guess this developer
seems to think giving details in a weather app is not desired.

 The first is called VO Calendar. Its a calendar app that is written
 specifically for blind users. Sort of high priced but worth it in my 
 opinion. Anything that saves me time and aggravation is worth $10 in 
 my book. Give it a look see.

 The second app is called Conditions. It's a very simple weather app 
 that
 is also fully VO compatible. It's 99 cents and worth throwing a buck 
 at the programmer just because he included VO in his thoughts while 
 writing this app. Heard him on a podcast giving Marco Armant  the

 Hi all.
 
 Here comes my text review of the game. I'm sorry for my bad spelling, but 
 english isn't my first language. :)
 
 The Inquisitor is a point and click, or, menu driven audio based adventure 
 game. The controls are described in the game, but I'll briefly go over those 
 anyway, because I'll discuss some navigating issues which don't makes sense 
 if you don't know the controls:
 Single tab with one finger: Select next item.
 Single tab with two fingers: Choose the selected item.
 Swipe down with one finger: Inventory.
 Swipe left with one finger: Notebook.
 Swipe up with one finger: Map.
 Swipe right with one finger: should tell you your mission, but that won't 
 work for me.
 Drawing a cross: Hints, but that won't work for me either. Well, I hope it's 
 just me who are doing it wrong though. :)
 
 First I wanna tell the bad things about the game, which I really hope will 
 be fixed in an update:
 I find the controls extremely clumsy and annoying. When going through the 
 menus by tabbing once with one finger, the game chooses randomly in the 
 menus. That means if you are counting the menu items, you'll find that the 
 game choose a menu item which you didn't expected, and other times it 
 randomly jumps over some of the menu items, and you have to keep pressing 15 
 or 20 times until you finally have found what you're looking for.
 Especially in the inventory, I find the game to automatically pick an item 
 which is done by pressing once with two fingers, when I only press with one 
 finger to go through my inventory. that's bluddy annoying, especially when 
 having more than 10 items in the inventory.
 Pretty often, I find the game to crash randomly when going through the 
 menus. It just closes, and I'm back on the home screen with VOiceover turned 
 off, and I found myself opening random apps. Not a good thing. :)
 Having all that said, I haven't tried to reinstall the game because I will 
 then have to start from scratch, but I'll consider doing so if I'm the only 
 one who have those issues.
 
 Now, to the great stuff:
 
 The game is really good, and it have a great story. There are many puzzles, 
 and I find the difficulty level to be pretty high, because there are used 
 many english words, which I find pretty difficult to understand because 
 english isn't my default language. the game is full of cutseens, and some of 
 them are very long. The audio could have been  better, but the music is 
 awesome. The voiceover of the main character is awesome, and sometimes 
 pretty creepy. :)
 The developers says that there's 6 to 8 hours of gameplay, but I think I've 
 played it more than that, and as I'm writing this, I'm only half through the 
 game. 
 All the areas are very well described, and there are many things which just 
 fits nicely into the game, but you don't have to use. That makes it harder 
 to solve the puzzles, because there are many combinations.
 In some puzzles, the game kind of plays automatically which I have mixed 
 feelings about. I'm not sure, but it seems as you can easily miss some 
 important cutseens, because you might expect to do the puzzle manually, but 
 then the game does that automatically, so you might end up pressing the 
 screen, which might skip some cutseens. That means you sometimes have to 
 wait a few seconds to see if the game is loading or if you have to do the 
 puzzle on your own.
 
 Conklution:
 
 Is the game worth the price? Now I'm a gamer, so I'll say yes! :)
 Thinking of how much narration the game offers, the full translation in 
 three different languages, all those long cutseens, lots and lots of 
 puzzles, minigames which I haven't seen yet and the upcomming graphical 
 versions, I'll say the game is very much worth the price, especially when 
 those issues are fixed. But if you're not into puzzle solving and clicking 
 through a menu to play a game, it might not be for you.
 
 I'm really enjoying the game, and I'm looking very much forward to see what 
 the developers are going to release in the future.

Canadian Weather app, was: A couple of apps that are fully VO compliant

2013-03-04 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
Hi Ron,

I am replying to the thread about accessible apps, but I changed the subject
to reflect that this has been about weather apps for the last few messages.

Since you are in Canada I would recommend the app called Degrees from the
developer North Bits. I think it's a Dollar or 2, but it uses Environment
Canada information and the current conditions as well as the forecast are
presented nicely and Voiceover reads everything well including sun rise, sun
set, the current moon phase and the previous day's high and low temperature.

You can add one or more locations that you want to check and make one of
them your default and I like the fact that you can display the current
temperature right on the badge icon. Due to limitations set by Apple,
Voiceover reads it as new items and it cannot announce negative
temperatures, but unless it's around 0 where a 1 or 2 could be either
plus or minus, it's usually pretty obvious whether it's above or below 0.
So, for example, right now it's minus 7 Celsius here (you can, of course,
set the units to either metric or imperial) and if I check the app icon,
Voiceover says the following:

Degrees, 7 new items

If you have any questions feel free to ask. If you want to take a look at
the information, you can check out the following Environment Canada website,
it's to the weather for Smithers, where I live, and the information
presented in the app is very much the same:

http://text.weatheroffice.gc.ca/forecast/city_e.html?bc-82

Use 1 3 times to jump to the third heading level 1 which is Smithers and
then you can use the arrows to read the information. It gives the location
and time of the reading, then current conditions, 7-day forecast and then
Historical Data.
The website also has a link called Record Values which gives you the
record high and low temperatures and some more information which can be
interesting to know for the day. For example, if I check this for my town, I
learn the following:

Averages and Extremes for: March 4, 2013

Hi,

In that case, I may have the right app.  I thought I had the wrong one
because its not accessible and I was told it was.  I guess yu could slide
your finger down to the row of days and then slide down to the temperature
but if you don't slide down perfectly straight, there is no way to find out
if you are on the right temperature for that day.  It only gives the maximum
and not the minimum.

Not absolutely sure but, if I have the right app, its not even worth the
dollar to me.  I'm waiting for an answer on the name of the developer to see
if for sure I have the right app.

I found conditions not to be completely accessible actually. I can see
enough to know there are graphics that show what it is going to be like each
day and voiceover says nothing about these graphics. It does not even tell
you graphics are there. So I don't even think you could label all of the
possibilities since it doesn't tell you they are there. So it is too minimal
for me and I like more details, not less anyway. JMO. I guess this developer
seems to think giving details in a weather app is not desired.

Hi Lea.

As far as I understand, the game does not have any sexual content. Not that I 
have seen or understood. So if you don't like comments like this you can safely 
play the game. If you do like it though, don't expect sexual content. :)
There are lots of words like darn it damn it, hell and many bad guys

avoid it.

 Hi all.
 
 Here comes my text review of the game. I'm sorry for my bad spelling, but 
 english isn't my first language. :)
 
 The Inquisitor is a point and click, or, menu driven audio based adventure 
 game. The controls are described in the game, but I'll briefly go over 
 those anyway, because I'll discuss some navigating issues which don't makes 
 sense if you don't know the controls:
 Single tab with one finger: Select next item.
 Single tab with two fingers: Choose the selected item.
 Swipe down with one finger: Inventory.
 Swipe left with one finger: Notebook.
 Swipe up with one finger: Map.
 Swipe right with one finger: should tell you your mission, but that won't 
 work for me.
 Drawing a cross: Hints, but that won't work for me either. Well, I hope 
 it's just me who are doing it wrong though. :)
 
 First I wanna tell the bad things about the game, which I really hope will 
 be fixed in an update:
 I find the controls extremely clumsy and annoying. When going through the 
 menus by tabbing once with one finger, the game chooses randomly in the 
 menus. That means if you are counting the menu items, you'll find that the 
 game choose a menu item which you didn't expected, and other times it 
 randomly jumps over some of the menu items, and you have to keep pressing 
 15 or 20 times until you finally have found what you're looking for.
 Especially in the inventory, I find the game to automatically pick an item 
 which is done by pressing once with two fingers, when I only press with one 
 finger to go through my inventory. that's bluddy annoying, especially when 
 having more than 10 items in the inventory.
 Pretty often, I find the game to crash randomly when going through the 
 menus. It just closes, and I'm back on the home screen with VOiceover 
 turned off, and I found myself opening random apps. Not a good thing. :)
 Having all that said, I haven't tried to reinstall the game because I will 
 then have to start from scratch, but I'll consider doing so if I'm the only 
 one who have those issues.
 
 Now, to the great stuff:
 
 The game is really good, and it have a great story. There are many puzzles, 
 and I find the difficulty level to be pretty high, because there are used 
 many english words, which I find pretty difficult to understand because 
 english isn't my default language. the game is full of cutseens, and some 
 of them are very long. The audio could have been  better, but the music is 
 awesome. The voiceover of the main character is awesome, and sometimes 
 pretty creepy. :)
 The developers says that there's 6 to 8 hours of gameplay, but I think I've 
 played it more than that, and as I'm writing this, I'm only half through 
 the game. 
 All the areas are very well described, and there are many things which just 
 fits nicely into the game, but you don't have to use. That makes it harder 
 to solve the puzzles, because there are many combinations.
 In some puzzles, the game kind of plays automatically which I have mixed 
 feelings about. I'm not sure, but it seems as you can easily miss some 
 important cutseens, because you might expect to do the puzzle manually, but 
 then the game does that automatically, so you might end up pressing the 
 screen, which might skip some cutseens. That means you sometimes have to 
 wait a few seconds to see if the game is loading or if you have to do the 
 puzzle on your own.
 
 Conklution:
 
 Is the game worth the price? Now I'm a gamer, so I'll say yes! :)
 Thinking of how much narration the game offers, the full translation in 
 three different languages, all those long cutseens, lots and lots of 
 puzzles, minigames which I haven't seen yet and the

Re: Wired Single EarEarphones Recommendation

2013-03-04 Thread Chuck Dean
Hi,
I agree with Sherrie. Just snip off the ear piece that does not have
the control on it.
The voltage is so small you will not get shocked from the bare wire,
but you may want to put a piece of tape over the cut wire, as the end
may poke at you and be uncomfortable.

I carry one of these all the time in my waist pack...they also work
well at the ATMs with audio assist.

 So I use the wired one.  Usually have phone in my pocket and run the wire

 Hi, the link below is to a very short demo of the totally different way the 
 microphone on the iPhone 5 can sound when you take away apple’s processing. 
 I don’t know other apps that do this, but Fire 2 definitely does. You have 
 the way to control the volume, compression, limiter and other audio 
 features. There is a setting in the app that allows you to completely turn 
 off the microphone processing done by apple.
  
 First I use List Recorder to record the actual sound of the microphone with 
 all of apple’s audio processing turned on, which is the only way most apps 
 can do it.
  
 Next, there is a recording made in Fire 2 with the processing turned off.
  
 Enjoy.

Re: stuck sleep/power switch on a 4S

Well, as I had AppleCare Plus I was able to successfully exchange my iPhone
4S with the worn out sleep/wake switch for a new one.  Since I'd backed up
to the Cloud everything came back.  That is except for my BookShare books,
but fortunately the BookShare website has a History of the books you've

So I guess the lesson is to  have AppleCare plus so that your phone is in
warrenty for the full 2 years.

 dropped or gotten it wet.  Currently I have a speck candyshell case on my
 phone, however even when I take the phone out of the case it's still very
 hard to get it to sleep/wake using the switch.
 
  I do have a Genius Bar appointment this afternoon, and until then I've
 been using the assistive touch menu as a work around, however I've seen on
 the internet that some people have had problems getting Apple to exchange
 their phones,now they could be people who don't have Apple Care Plus but I
 know my phone is under warrenty as ironically I was at the Apple Store on
 Friday and was able to exchange my power cable which was fraying.
 
  Apparently this is a well documented thing that happens to iPhone 4 
 iPhone 4S's.  I'm shocked as one would think as much as we use the home
 button that that would wear out much faster!
 
  My question is has anyone on this list had their power/sleep button
 become hard to use?  If so, did Apple exchange the phone?  I know I could
 upgrade to the iPhone 5 but I don't want to, I'd like to see what happens
 this year with the new update.
 
  This is my original iPhone 4S, I had 3 iPhone 3GS's (all exchanged
 through the Genius Bar) as I had battery problems with the first 2 so
 within a 1.5 year time span I had 3 3GS's and in the same amount of time I
 have only had 1 4S.  Oh yeah, do you know if the phones you get when you
 exchange them at Apple are they refurbished or are they new?
 
  Thankks,
  Katey

RE: An audio demo of the process and unprocessed microphone in the iPhone 5

2013-03-04 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
Hi Carol,

 

I listened to Neil’s audio samples and admit that the Fire 2 recording does 
sound very good. The base is better and overall the sound is fuller and richer.

 

If the Fire 2 recording was used as a reference and given a 10 out of 10 for 
quality, I would say the List Recorder recording Neil made as a comparison was 
at least an 8 or maybe even a 9 out of 10.

If you didn’t have both recordings side by side you would not even notice the 
difference that much, at least I wouldn’t and another factor is what your usage 
is. If you absolutely need or want the upmost in quality I could see how you 
would want the Fire 2 app, if you want good quality recordings for taking notes 
and so on I think for most people List Recorder or any other recording app 
which does not circumvent Apple’s audio processing will be just fine. After 
all, it’s not as if there were multiple discussion threads on Viphone where 
people complain about the poor audio recording quality.

 

 

Regards,

Sieghard

Hi, the link below is to a very short demo of the totally different way the 
microphone on the iPhone 5 can sound when you take away apple’s processing. I 
don’t know other apps that do this, but Fire 2 definitely does. You have the 
way to control the volume, compression, limiter and other audio features. There 
is a setting in the app that allows you to completely turn off the microphone 
processing done by apple.

 

First I use List Recorder to record the actual sound of the microphone with all 
of apple’s audio processing turned on, which is the only way most apps can do 
it.

 

Next, there is a recording made in Fire 2 with the processing turned off.

 

Enjoy.

 Hi,



 I'm the developer of Voice Dream Reader. I assume you mean the voice of
 Julie, not Julia. Julie is not available in the Lite version because the
 maker of the voice, NeoSpeech, has not yet given me the permission to
 distribute it in the free version. I'm working on that, and it should be
 out
 soon.

 When I went through the list, The voice Julia was not listed. Is this only

 was able to sample the Julia voice. I agree with others that Julia is the
 clearest, with Ryan coming in a close second at a speed level set at 4.
 Anoter note, Is Voice Dream easy to use? I havc been testing Natural Reader
 and is a little stubborn to use with VoiceOver. Your comments is most
 appreciative.

 Thanks in advance for any input before purchasing the app.

Dropbox and the cloud

Someone told me that dropbox files on your IPhone are stored in the cloud 
and not on the actual phone.


My question is, does the cloud limit you to a maximum of storage space?
I have a ton of pictures stored on Dropbox.  When I say a ton I mean almost 
11,000 pictures coming to about 27 GB of space.


Any help with this would be appreciated.

Hi Debbi,

Isn't there a thing that says, Show keypad or something?  Did you

phone one time and just hang up and see the screen with vo turned on
so that you can see the options in screen and that way you know it?  I
am sorry I can't tell you more because I use an Ipod and I know that
in one of my family member's IPhone 4 S, when I fool around with it
and I do see a button thing that says, Show keypad when the keypad
is hidden and when the keypad is visible, it says, hide keypad.

 up the keypad in order to do this?

 Another example is; I live in a gated community and I haven't given the

 someone comes to visit me, they enter a code from the call box which then

Radio question

2013-03-04 Thread Shane clark
Hi All,
I currently have iBlink and TuneIn on my phone. I hear a lotof people talking 
about Pandora, Slacker Radio. But what's the difference between them, and other 
Internet radio stations? I mean they all pretty much do the same thing as far 
as streaming music and such right?

Re: The Inquisitor audiogame, a text review

2013-03-04 Thread anouk radix

Hi Suren,
Thanks for the description of the game. I often have sluggishness with 
the inventory. Imho the developer should implement that will allow you 
to go BACK as well as forward through the menu system. Also he should 
possibly limit the USE system a bit because now you have to search 
really long till you find the item that you want to use your other item 
with.
I have not really gotten far yet because i am stumped with some stuff 
but the initiave and the audio is great, now just hope that bugfixing 
will occur.

Greetings, Anouk,

Hi all.

Here comes my text review of the game. I'm sorry for my bad spelling, but 
english isn't my first language. :)

The Inquisitor is a point and click, or, menu driven audio based adventure 
game. The controls are described in the game, but I'll briefly go over those 
anyway, because I'll discuss some navigating issues which don't makes sense if 
you don't know the controls:
Single tab with one finger: Select next item.
Single tab with two fingers: Choose the selected item.
Swipe down with one finger: Inventory.
Swipe left with one finger: Notebook.
Swipe up with one finger: Map.
Swipe right with one finger: should tell you your mission, but that won't work 
for me.
Drawing a cross: Hints, but that won't work for me either. Well, I hope it's 
just me who are doing it wrong though. :)

First I wanna tell the bad things about the game, which I really hope will be 
fixed in an update:
I find the controls extremely clumsy and annoying. When going through the menus 
by tabbing once with one finger, the game chooses randomly in the menus. That 
means if you are counting the menu items, you'll find that the game choose a 
menu item which you didn't expected, and other times it randomly jumps over 
some of the menu items, and you have to keep pressing 15 or 20 times until you 
finally have found what you're looking for.
Especially in the inventory, I find the game to automatically pick an item 
which is done by pressing once with two fingers, when I only press with one 
finger to go through my inventory. that's bluddy annoying, especially when 
having more than 10 items in the inventory.
Pretty often, I find the game to crash randomly when going through the menus. 
It just closes, and I'm back on the home screen with VOiceover turned off, and 
I found myself opening random apps. Not a good thing. :)
Having all that said, I haven't tried to reinstall the game because I will then 
have to start from scratch, but I'll consider doing so if I'm the only one who 
have those issues.

Now, to the great stuff:

The game is really good, and it have a great story. There are many puzzles, and 
I find the difficulty level to be pretty high, because there are used many 
english words, which I find pretty difficult to understand because english 
isn't my default language. the game is full of cutseens, and some of them are 
very long. The audio could have been  better, but the music is awesome. The 
voiceover of the main character is awesome, and sometimes pretty creepy. :)
The developers says that there's 6 to 8 hours of gameplay, but I think I've 
played it more than that, and as I'm writing this, I'm only half through the 
game.
All the areas are very well described, and there are many things which just 
fits nicely into the game, but you don't have to use. That makes it harder to 
solve the puzzles, because there are many combinations.
In some puzzles, the game kind of plays automatically which I have mixed 
feelings about. I'm not sure, but it seems as you can easily miss some 
important cutseens, because you might expect to do the puzzle manually, but 
then the game does that automatically, so you might end up pressing the screen, 
which might skip some cutseens. That means you sometimes have to wait a few 
seconds to see if the game is loading or if you have to do the puzzle on your 
own.

Conklution:

Is the game worth the price? Now I'm a gamer, so I'll say yes! :)
Thinking of how much narration the game offers, the full translation in three 
different languages, all those long cutseens, lots and lots of puzzles, 
minigames which I haven't seen yet and the upcomming graphical versions, I'll 
say the game is very much worth the price, especially when those issues are 
fixed. But if you're not into puzzle solving and clicking through a menu to 
play a game, it might not be for you.

I'm really enjoying the game, and I'm looking very much forward to see what the 
developers are going to release in the future.

Søren Jensen

  Hi, the link below is to a very short demo of the totally different way the 
microphone on the iPhone 5 can sound when you take away apple's processing. I 
don't know other apps that do this, but Fire 2 definitely does. You have the 
way to control the volume, compression, limiter and other audio features. There 
is a setting in the app that allows you to completely turn off the microphone 
processing done by apple.

   

  First I use List Recorder to record the actual sound of the microphone with 
all of apple's audio processing turned on, which is the only way most apps can 
do it.

   

  Next, there is a recording made in Fire 2 with the processing turned off.

   

  Enjoy.

Looking for accessible calorie counter

2013-03-04 Thread Ann Byrne

From my friend:


Okay, I went to the app store to look for an app 
that would help me count or figure out carbs for 
the foods that I eat. I found a few. Here’s the 
thing…I downloaded a couple of the free ones and 
neither of them were VO accessible. I’m so 
hesitant to pay money for an app, just to find out that it too is not


accessible to me. Is there a way to find this out before I purchase an app?

thanks a lot,

Ringback tones and hotspot question

Does anyone know of an app/tweak that will let you have ringback tones when a

Secondly, is there an app that will allow me to have wifi and use my phone as a

 This is normal behaviour, and how Bluetooth earpieces can last more than a 
 few hours on a charge. You need to have the iPhone send a continuous signal 
 to the earpiece in order to keep the channel open. Try playing a quiet sound 
 track in the music player. You can find white noise MP3 tracks on the 
 internet. This will provide a quiet hiss sound which the announcement will 
 play over. Be aware that this strategy will greatly reduce the time that the 
 earpiece will last between charging.

 of what is sent to the headset is lost before the headset begins working

 Has anyone else experienced this behavior and, if so, were you able to

Hi,

Yes, I've had that happen to me, but on an iPhone 5. As far as you getting 
refurbished ones, they're brand new. They simply go in the back in the store 
and grab a new phone. Your AppleCare will transfer over to the replacement 
phone as well.
I was also told that phones purchased through Apple are tested more before 
they're actually sent to stores for sale, as opposed to carriers, who just 
get phones shipped straight to them after manufacturing.

Hello all,

I have a 32 Gig iPhone 4S that I purchased on Oct 15, 2011 and I have

dropped or gotten it wet.  Currently I have a speck candyshell case on my 
phone, however even when I take the phone out of the case it's still very 
hard to get it to sleep/wake using the switch.


I do have a Genius Bar appointment this afternoon, and until then I've 
been using the assistive touch menu as a work around, however I've seen on 
the internet that some people have had problems getting Apple to exchange 
their phones,now they could be people who don't have Apple Care Plus but I 
know my phone is under warrenty as ironically I was at the Apple Store on 
Friday and was able to exchange my power cable which was fraying.


Apparently this is a well documented thing that happens to iPhone 4  
iPhone 4S's.  I'm shocked as one would think as much as we use the home 
button that that would wear out much faster!


My question is has anyone on this list had their power/sleep button become 
hard to use?  If so, did Apple exchange the phone?  I know I could upgrade 
to the iPhone 5 but I don't want to, I'd like to see what happens this 
year with the new update.


This is my original iPhone 4S, I had 3 iPhone 3GS's (all exchanged through 
the Genius Bar) as I had battery problems with the first 2 so within a 1.5 
year time span I had 3 3GS's and in the same amount of time I have only 
had 1 4S.  Oh yeah, do you know if the phones you get when you exchange 
them at Apple are they refurbished or are they new?


Thankks,

  Hi Debbie,


  When the phone rings, there is a slide to answer button in the lower left 
corner of the screen. If you first touch that button then answer it with a 
one-finger double tap, the keypad will come up when you take your phone away 
from your ear.


  Hope this helps,

HI everyone,

I was wondering; if you answer a call and it's a robo call and you are 
asked to press 1 to confirm a doctor's appointment or if its a survey and you 
need to press a # to rate your customer experience etc, is there a way to bring 
up the keypad in order to do this?

Another example is; I live in a gated community and I haven't given the 
office my cell phone # to associate with my gate code for this reason. When 
someone comes to visit me, they enter a code from the call box which then calls 
my home #; I answer the phone and then hit a # on my telephone keypad which 
then releases the gate. Is there a way to do this on the IPhone?

Thanks!

 Hi,
 
 Yes, I've had that happen to me, but on an iPhone 5. As far as you getting 
 refurbished ones, they're brand new. They simply go in the back in the store 
 and grab a new phone. Your AppleCare will transfer over to the replacement 
 phone as well.
 I was also told that phones purchased through Apple are tested more before 
 they're actually sent to stores for sale, as opposed to carriers, who just 
 get phones shipped straight to them after manufacturing.

 Hello all,
 
 I have a 32 Gig iPhone 4S that I purchased on Oct 15, 2011 and I have Apple

 to use.  I have always had my phone in a case  have never dropped or 
 gotten it wet.  Currently I have a speck candyshell case on my phone, 
 however even when I take the phone out of the case it's still very hard to 
 get it to sleep/wake using the switch.
 
 I do have a Genius Bar appointment this afternoon, and until then I've been 
 using the assistive touch menu as a work around, however I've seen on the 
 internet that some people have had problems getting Apple to exchange their 
 phones,now they could be people who don't have Apple Care Plus but I know 
 my phone is under warrenty as ironically I was at the Apple Store on Friday 
 and was able to exchange my power cable which was fraying.  
 
 Apparently this is a well documented thing that happens to iPhone 4  
 iPhone 4S's.  I'm shocked as one would think as much as we use the home 
 button that that would wear out much faster!  
 
 My question is has anyone on this list had their power/sleep button become 
 hard to use?  If so, did Apple exchange the phone?  I know I could upgrade 
 to the iPhone 5 but I don't want to, I'd like to see what happens this year 
 with the new update.  
 
 This is my original iPhone 4S, I had 3 iPhone 3GS's (all exchanged through 
 the Genius Bar) as I had battery problems with the first 2 so within a 1.5 
 year time span I had 3 3GS's and in the same amount of time I have only had 
 1 4S.  Oh yeah, do you know if the phones you get when you exchange them at 
 Apple are they refurbished or are they new?

Hi Louise,

Thought I add my thoughts regarding data usage, but Ricardo already gave 
you

the correct advice and I agree with what he said.

If you can get 1 Gb at a reasonable cost then this will do you, I used to 
be

on a Flex plan from my provider which had cut-offs like under 100, 100 to
300, 300 to 500 etc. I often was under 100 Mb, usually between 100 and 300
Mb and now they had a special where I was able to get 2 Gb and unlimited
calling in Canada for actually less than what I paid before. I have now 
been
completely not careful with data usage, have downloaded app updates via 
3G,

downloaded or streamed the occasional podcast over 3G and used Skype and
Facetime and still my data usage last months was only 500 Mb.

Things like normal every-day stuff like using SIRI, getting emails, going
online to look at a website, using GPS and all that doesn't take up very
large amounts of data at all.

Sieghard

Well, the procedure has changed, then, because they want three separate 
questions when I use the iPhone to modify my ID.  I can tell because I 
flicked to each question in the first list, answered one, and was then 
presented with a list of different questions, and the same thing happened 
when I answered the second question and moved to the third.  Also, there 
are only 17 questions in that portion of the PC version of the security 
screen, and while there are some duplicates on the PC side, there are many 
questions on the Iphone version that aren't in the PC list at all.


I think I' making headway, though.  The last time I answered the third 
question, I was taken out of that screen and back into the Apple store 
where i'm supposed to find the agree button.


I know it's got to be there somewhere, but I can't find it and letting VO 
read that whole 13 plus pages is time consuming and annoying.

Raul, I'm on the apple ID web site and right away I see a discrepancy
between what's shown on the iPhone and what's shown using the PC.  No 
where
in the security questions section using the PC is there any indication 
that

I need to answer more than one question.  I've just selected a question,
typed in an answer, and made sure the birth date info was correct before
clicking save.  I was told my changes were saved, and now I'm back in the
same list of security questions an no hint that I need to choose two more
questions.  totally confused over here.  sigh

Hello Lisa. It is perplexing that using the same ID on your PC and on 
your

device is not seeming to synchronize after you make sure and answer all
those questions correctly. It has been so long since I have done this 
that I

do not remember the exact steps on making sure things work right. Perhaps
signing out and then back in from your device might make things work a
little better. One other thing you might consider trying is going to the
Apple ID website directly and updating your security questions. This 
might
trigger the need to answer them on both your PC and device again. However 
if
something is not synchronizing properly perhaps this is the fix. The 
Apple

ID website is http://appleid.apple.com.

Good luck.

I guess that's my biggest issue.

I'm going to use my PC once more and answer 3 security questions and see
how it goes.

I did notice that on the iPhone, at least, answering one block of
questions seems to trigger another list of unique questions.  I agree 
that

some of them are probably not applicable to those of us who have never
driven, but you could always use a guide dog's name or your favorite

secure because the predicted answers of vehicle models aren't present.

Hi alan,

My guess is that you inadvertently set punctuation to none. Choose Punctuation 
on the rotor, and be sure it's set to Some. Then your symbols should be spoken 
again.

Re: Dropbox and the cloud

2013-03-04 Thread Woody Anna Dresner
Hi Chris,

Dropbox is a cloud service; it stores everything in your Dropbox folders on its 
servers. If you install the Dropbox app on your phone, you'll be able to access 
everything you have stored in Dropbox. It will be streamed from Dropbox to your 
phone when you open it. It is only stored on your phone if you make it a 
favorite. So it will have no effect on your iCloud storage or the memory 
available on your phone unless you add files to your favorites.

HTH,
Anna

Re: Radio question

2013-03-04 Thread Christopher Chaltain
I see you sent this to a handful of lists, so I apologize if this has 
already been answered.


I don't have iBlink or TuneIn on my phone, but I do have Pandora and 
Last.FM on my phone. With Pandora you specify an artist and it will 
stream music from related artists. You can indicate which songs you like 
and don't like, and it'll adjust to your taste over time. You're 
basically creating your own radio station.


Other radio apps will let you tap into and play internet streams. For 
example, I can listen to a local radio station here in Austin I like, 
KGSR. Some apps will give you access to different sources of media, like 
XM/Sirius and so on.

 Hi,
 
 Yes, I've had that happen to me, but on an iPhone 5. As far as you getting 
 refurbished ones, they're brand new. They simply go in the back in the store 
 and grab a new phone. Your AppleCare will transfer over to the replacement 
 phone as well.
 I was also told that phones purchased through Apple are tested more before 
 they're actually sent to stores for sale, as opposed to carriers, who just 
 get phones shipped straight to them after manufacturing.

 Hello all,
 
 I have a 32 Gig iPhone 4S that I purchased on Oct 15, 2011 and I have Apple 
 Care Plus for it.  Unfortunately my sleep/power switch has become very hard 
 to use.  I have always had my phone in a case  have never dropped or gotten 
 it wet.  Currently I have a speck candyshell case on my phone, however even 
 when I take the phone out of the case it's still very hard to get it to 
 sleep/wake using the switch.
 
 I do have a Genius Bar appointment this afternoon, and until then I've been 
 using the assistive touch menu as a work around, however I've seen on the 
 internet that some people have had problems getting Apple to exchange their 
 phones,now they could be people who don't have Apple Care Plus but I know my 
 phone is under warrenty as ironically I was at the Apple Store on Friday and 
 was able to exchange my power cable which was fraying.
 
 Apparently this is a well documented thing that happens to iPhone 4  iPhone 
 4S's.  I'm shocked as one would think as much as we use the home button that 
 that would wear out much faster!
 
 My question is has anyone on this list had their power/sleep button become 
 hard to use?  If so, did Apple exchange the phone?  I know I could upgrade 
 to the iPhone 5 but I don't want to, I'd like to see what happens this year 
 with the new update.
 
 This is my original iPhone 4S, I had 3 iPhone 3GS's (all exchanged through 
 the Genius Bar) as I had battery problems with the first 2 so within a 1.5 
 year time span I had 3 3GS's and in the same amount of time I have only had 
 1 4S.  Oh yeah, do you know if the phones you get when you exchange them at 
 Apple are they refurbished or are they new?
 
 Thankks,

Re: LookTel VO Tutorial

2013-03-04 Thread Cara Quinn
Grant and All, thanks very much for your feedback.

Let me mention two things.

• Firstly, if you find that VO misses numbers, you may need to turn the rotor a 
bit slower. There is a delay between when you hear the sound for each number 
and when VO actually speaks it.

• Secondly, If VO's focus moves to the two buttons at the top of the screen the 
rotor functionality will switch back to its usual features. This is what is 
supposed to happen. If this does happen, simply touch the screen again near the 
middle, with a finger and you'll be good to go!

Are you having any issue hearing the sound which signals you to flick up or 
down on the correct number? The AppleVis podcaster was having an issue but I 
was able to hear it fine. So I'm wondering if this is something we'll need to 
change in the next update so people can more easily hear this sound? -Thoughts?

Thanks to everyone so far for your awesome and helpful feedback! You rock!

Smiles,

Cara :)

Hi Cara,

What a terrific idea! I am certain this will benefit a lot of new
users of VoiceOver. I had a play with it and mostly it is fun and easy
to get the hang of. I will say though that the second, combination
lock game seems quite buggy at least on my particular iPhone 5.
VoiceOver rarely announced the numbers as I spun the lock, but usually
a small sound played indicating that my gesture worked. Often times
though, VoiceOver simply loses its focus and when I spin the dial it
begins turning the rotor from lines to words etc. as it would normally
do when not in an an app with custom gestures. The result is I have
not been able as of yet to win the second game, and I am an
experienced VoiceOver year of three years. :)

RE: question about police scanner apps

2013-03-04 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
Since the iPhone has no built-in receiver for radio frequencies they all
work only using online feeds and that is the only way for this to work just
as the only way to listen to FM or AM radio is via apps like Ootunes or Tune
In since the iPhone has no actual FM and/or AM receiver.

I installed this app and it wants me to create a nickname before I can
continue so that my scores can be put out on some public board. I hate when
this happens! Why can't you just play the game by yourself if you want and
that's that? Is there something I'm missing so I can continue without having

RE: Ringback tones and hotspot question

2013-03-04 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
Hi Shane,

Your second question first. The iPhone can be used as a WiFi hot spot
without the need to jailbreak or use additional apps. Ever since iOS 5 I
think it was, the Personal Hotspot feature is part of iOS and you can allow
other devices to connect to your iPhone when your iPhone is connected to
WiFi or, for that matter 3G/4G. Of course you have to keep in mind that in
the States apparently using your ipPhone as a Hot Spot is not automatically
included in your data plan or at least not in all data plans. Here in Canada
the carriers don't charge extra for that no matter what plan you are on, but
if you use data you might want to make sure with your carrier they won't
charge you an arm and a leg.

You can allow connections either via WiFi with a password, via Bluetooth or
by USB cable. The latter basically means you can plug your iPhone into a
laptop or desktop with the normal 30-pin or lightning cable and let the
computer that is connected access the internet that way. I have done this
many times when I was at a hotel where I could only connect one device to
the hotel's WiFi, I would connect my iPhone and then plug it into my laptop
which charged it and at the same time allowed me to get online with the
computer.

As for ringback tones I am not quite sure what you mean. If you mean can
you set different ringtones for different people in your contact list then
Yes.


Regards,
Sieghard

Hi,
Does anyone know of an app/tweak that will let you have ringback tones when
a person calls? My brother was interested in knowing. 
Secondly, is there an app that will allow me to have wifi and use my phone
as a hotspot? I thought maybe Cydia may have such a feature. 
Thanks.

Re: Form factor of the Plantronics M50!!!

2013-03-04 Thread Traci
Hello, I bought this earpiece about a Month ago.

It's shape is a small rectangle, smaller than my previous plantronics model.  
The piece that goes in your ear is not round.  I'm not sure how to describe it. 
 The ear loop feels pretty sturdy to me, and softer than my previous model.

On one edge of the device is a volume rocker, on the other edge is a on/off 
switch.  The back of the device is smooth, but it is a button.  I'd have to 
say, I prefer the actually button on my previous model.

At the top of the device is where you plug in your charger.  You can also have 
the earpiece on either ear, by gently rotating the ear loop.

So far, I'm quite happy with this device.  I love the voice prompts when I turn 
it on/off, and I like how the battery level is displayed in my iPhone's status 
bar.  Keep in mind, it is reported to not work great with Siri.  For some 
reason it won't complete the command.  You need to physically have your phone 
in hand to tap the button.

HTH,

Re: Ringback tones and hotspot question

2013-03-04 Thread Denny Schwab
Hi,

Just a note on ringback tones.  Ringback tones are actually the ring
that the person calling you hears when they call.  By default this is
the simple ringing you hear when you make a phone call.  Some
phones/plans, I am not sure which, allow you to set a different sound
for this ringback tone.

Ringback tones are not what you hear when someone calls your phone,
but what you hear when you call someone else's phone, and is set up on
the phone you are trying to call.  I.E. If I set up a Ringback tone it
is what you would hear when you call me.

I do not have any information on how, or if, this can be set up on an IPhone.

 Hi Shane,

 Your second question first. The iPhone can be used as a WiFi hot spot
 without the need to jailbreak or use additional apps. Ever since iOS 5 I
 think it was, the Personal Hotspot feature is part of iOS and you can allow
 other devices to connect to your iPhone when your iPhone is connected to
 WiFi or, for that matter 3G/4G. Of course you have to keep in mind that in
 the States apparently using your ipPhone as a Hot Spot is not automatically
 included in your data plan or at least not in all data plans. Here in
 Canada
 the carriers don't charge extra for that no matter what plan you are on,
 but
 if you use data you might want to make sure with your carrier they won't
 charge you an arm and a leg.

 You can allow connections either via WiFi with a password, via Bluetooth or
 by USB cable. The latter basically means you can plug your iPhone into a
 laptop or desktop with the normal 30-pin or lightning cable and let the
 computer that is connected access the internet that way. I have done this
 many times when I was at a hotel where I could only connect one device to
 the hotel's WiFi, I would connect my iPhone and then plug it into my laptop
 which charged it and at the same time allowed me to get online with the
 computer.

 As for ringback tones I am not quite sure what you mean. If you mean can
 you set different ringtones for different people in your contact list then
 Yes.

 Sieghard

 Hi,
 Does anyone know of an app/tweak that will let you have ringback tones when
 a person calls? My brother was interested in knowing.
 Secondly, is there an app that will allow me to have wifi and use my phone
 as a hotspot? I thought maybe Cydia may have such a feature.
 Thanks.

Astronomy, picture of the day

2013-03-04 Thread Traci
Hi all, for those of you that enjoy astronomy, you may really like this app.

It shows you a picture a day, there is an unlabeled button that is the image 
info.  Tap this and you can read a little paragraph about the photo.  It's 
pretty cool!  The only other part that has unlabeled buttons, is when you tap 
about this app.  This brings you to a screen full of unlabeled buttons.  I 
tapped on a few, which brought me to various websites, nASA mobile etc.

I have a program called gomeals. you can write your meals down each day 
as it gives you the plate and you can look up any foods, both 
restaurant and grocery, as well as take-out.  For example,if you are in 
burger king you can add up your possible meal in calories, carbs, fat, 
and everything else before ordering, or, after eating.  it has a verry

Re: Call quality on the iPhone 5

2013-03-04 Thread Jonathan Mosen
Hi Neal, yes, this is carrier specific. The only carrier I've used with the 
iPhone in the United States is ATT. But I use the very same phone in New 
Zealand, and there, the quality of calls is pretty much indistinguishable from 
a landline. In the US on ATT, it is a much inferior experience and I know the 
duplexing issue you're talking about. Carriers have a choice over the codec in 
use, how much bandwidth each call takes up. ATT are squeezing a lot more calls 
into the same bandwidth and it sounds absolutely yuck. I've not had any 
experience with the other US carriers.

Hi there! I just downloaded the app, and it doesn't seem to be very VO

you see Starbucks. This isn't very helpful obviously for people who are 
unfamiliar with the mall if you cannot see the signs. It might be a good idea

Hi, the link below is to a very short demo of the totally different way the 
microphone on the iPhone 5 can sound when you take away apple's processing. I 
don't know other apps that do this, but Fire 2 definitely does. You have the 
way to control the volume, compression, limiter and other audio features. There 
is a setting in the app that allows you to completely turn off the microphone 
processing done by apple.

 

First I use List Recorder to record the actual sound of the microphone with 
all of apple's audio processing turned on, which is the only way most apps can 
do it.

 

Next, there is a recording made in Fire 2 with the processing turned off.

 

Enjoy.

Re: An audio demo of the process and unprocessed microphone in the iPhone 5

2013-03-04 Thread Sean Paul
Me personally. I think the mic on the iDevices is very good. I've actually 
recorded audio using it  we've gone to air with it. There is a news reporter 
who works for WTOP radio out of Washington DC  that's all that he uses for all 
of his on air broadcast recordings. I'll stop now as this discussion could go 
on for ever if we let it.

  Hi Carol,

   

  I listened to Neil’s audio samples and admit that the Fire 2 recording does 
sound very good. The base is better and overall the sound is fuller and richer.

   

  If the Fire 2 recording was used as a reference and given a 10 out of 10 for 
quality, I would say the List Recorder recording Neil made as a comparison was 
at least an 8 or maybe even a 9 out of 10.

  If you didn’t have both recordings side by side you would not even notice the 
difference that much, at least I wouldn’t and another factor is what your usage 
is. If you absolutely need or want the upmost in quality I could see how you 
would want the Fire 2 app, if you want good quality recordings for taking notes 
and so on I think for most people List Recorder or any other recording app 
which does not circumvent Apple’s audio processing will be just fine. After 
all, it’s not as if there were multiple discussion threads on Viphone where 
people complain about the poor audio recording quality.

  Sieghard

  Hi, the link below is to a very short demo of the totally different way 
the microphone on the iPhone 5 can sound when you take away apple’s processing. 
I don’t know other apps that do this, but Fire 2 definitely does. You have the 
way to control the volume, compression, limiter and other audio features. There 
is a setting in the app that allows you to completely turn off the microphone 
processing done by apple.

   

  First I use List Recorder to record the actual sound of the microphone 
with all of apple’s audio processing turned on, which is the only way most apps 
can do it.

   

  Next, there is a recording made in Fire 2 with the processing turned off.

   

  Enjoy.

Re: Radio question

2013-03-04 Thread James Mannion
To add to the answer to this question, some apps, such as Spotify and
Slacker will allow you to listen to specific songs or albums on
demand. In some cases you have to pay the subscription fee to be able
to do this. Pandora will not allow you to select and listen to
something specific, artest and track, on demand. then there is the
difference of sound quality. IN myexperience, Spotify has produced by
far the best sound quality and Slacker I have not been so impressed
with for sound quality.

 I don't have iBlink or TuneIn on my phone, but I do have Pandora and
 Last.FM on my phone. With Pandora you specify an artist and it will
 stream music from related artists. You can indicate which songs you like
 and don't like, and it'll adjust to your taste over time. You're
 basically creating your own radio station.

 Other radio apps will let you tap into and play internet streams. For
 example, I can listen to a local radio station here in Austin I like,
 KGSR. Some apps will give you access to different sources of media, like
 XM/Sirius and so on.

RE: An audio demo of the process and unprocessed microphone in the iPhone 5

2013-03-04 Thread Neal Ewers
Hi all, I was not meaning to suggest that the microphone on the iPhone was not 
good. I can see that a lot of people would use it for a lot of good recordings. 
I was just pointing out an app that, especially if you are listening through 
professional speakers or wearing professional grade headphones, does in fact 
sound very nice. The Apple processed microphone is quite good as phone 
microphones go. My iTouch microphone sounds much better, but likely that is 
because they have not tried to limit the frequency response for phone calls. I 
have heard some crappie mikes in my day, and I certainly don’t consider the 
iPhone 5 microphone anywhere close to these.

Hi Carol,

 

I listened to Neil’s audio samples and admit that the Fire 2 recording does 
sound very good. The base is better and overall the sound is fuller and richer.

 

If the Fire 2 recording was used as a reference and given a 10 out of 10 for 
quality, I would say the List Recorder recording Neil made as a comparison was 
at least an 8 or maybe even a 9 out of 10.

If you didn’t have both recordings side by side you would not even notice the 
difference that much, at least I wouldn’t and another factor is what your usage 
is. If you absolutely need or want the upmost in quality I could see how you 
would want the Fire 2 app, if you want good quality recordings for taking notes 
and so on I think for most people List Recorder or any other recording app 
which does not circumvent Apple’s audio processing will be just fine. After 
all, it’s not as if there were multiple discussion threads on Viphone where 
people complain about the poor audio recording quality.

Sieghard

Re: An audio demo of the process and unprocessed microphone in the iPhone 5

2013-03-04 Thread Sean Paul
Neal, I certainly know you weren't suggesting anything of the sort. As like 
you, I'm always playing with mics, apps, etc to get the best possible sound out 
of any device that I'm using at the time since I do audio for a living. I was 
just making a couple points there to go along with what you'd said. As Neal 
Augenstine who is the WTOP reporter  I have discussed many times in the past, 
the end listener isn't as focused on those type things as those of us who get 
obsessed with them are. Great discussion but I'd bet we're probably not 
supposed to be having it on this here list...

Doing a two-finger double tap starts your music playing but this in-turn

RE: An audio demo of the process and unprocessed microphone in the iPhone 5

2013-03-04 Thread Neal Ewers
Hi Carol. I don’t believe I will be using this app much because I too have 
other recorders. I also prefer to do my editing on a computer rather than on 
the iPhone, but to answer your question, I have not played with the editing 
features. I sent this demo because I was struck by two things.

 

First, that it was an improvement over the already good iPhone microphone.

 

Also, because I was surprised that Apple allowed a company to bypass their 
processing. They are often a bit more controlling than that, but, perhaps 
things are changing.

It is extremely accessible. Even the input and other sliders work.

There is, however, one strange thing. When you turn off Apple’s processing, the 
output of VoiceOver drops by a lot. I have written to the developer about this 
and perhaps there is a way not to have this happen that I have not found yet.

RE: How do I set up an ftp account on my iPhone

2013-03-04 Thread Neal Ewers
Actually, I emailed it to myself. I'm still working on the FTP, but someone
has sent a message about a possible app. I don't remember the name at the
moment, but you likely got the message as well. Sorry, I don't mean to sound
too busy to go look it up. I am having email issues and am having to
transfer a lot of individual messages to another account because my messages
became corrupt.

Subject: How do I set up an ftp account on my iPhone

 

Hi all, I am using Fire 2 recorder and am trying to send a file from my
iPhone to my ftp server. This is one of the options in file sharing in that
program. I put in my ftp site and clicked send only to be told that I had
not set up an ftp account on my phone. Does anyone know how I go about doing
this?

 

OK, I did some checking and I'm told by tech support at Verizon that I need
an FTP app on my phone. If true, does anyone have any experience with
accessible FTP apps?

 

Thanks much.

Doing a two-finger double tap starts your music playing but this in-turn does 
stop the Skype call. So you can actually do this by doing two two-finger double 
taps. :)

you see Starbucks. This isn't very helpful obviously for people who are

 Hi all.
 
 Here comes my text review of the game. I'm sorry for my bad spelling, but
english isn't my first language. :)
 
 The Inquisitor is a point and click, or, menu driven audio based
adventure game. The controls are described in the game, but I'll briefly go
over those anyway, because I'll discuss some navigating issues which don't
makes sense if you don't know the controls:
 Single tab with one finger: Select next item.
 Single tab with two fingers: Choose the selected item.
 Swipe down with one finger: Inventory.
 Swipe left with one finger: Notebook.
 Swipe up with one finger: Map.
 Swipe right with one finger: should tell you your mission, but that won't
work for me.
 Drawing a cross: Hints, but that won't work for me either. Well, I hope
it's just me who are doing it wrong though. :)
 
 First I wanna tell the bad things about the game, which I really hope
will be fixed in an update:
 I find the controls extremely clumsy and annoying. When going through the
menus by tabbing once with one finger, the game chooses randomly in the
menus. That means if you are counting the menu items, you'll find that the
game choose a menu item which you didn't expected, and other times it
randomly jumps over some of the menu items, and you have to keep pressing 15
or 20 times until you finally have found what you're looking for.
 Especially in the inventory, I find the game to automatically pick an
item which is done by pressing once with two fingers, when I only press with
one finger to go through my inventory. that's bluddy annoying, especially
when having more than 10 items in the inventory.
 Pretty often, I find the game to crash randomly when going through the
menus. It just closes, and I'm back on the home screen with VOiceover turned
off, and I found myself opening random apps. Not a good thing. :)
 Having all that said, I haven't tried to reinstall the game because I
will then have to start from scratch, but I'll consider doing so if I'm the
only one who have those issues.
 
 Now, to the great stuff:
 
 The game is really good, and it have a great story. There are many
puzzles, and I find the difficulty level to be pretty high, because there
are used many english words, which I find pretty difficult to understand
because english isn't my default language. the game is full of cutseens, and
some of them are very long. The audio could have been  better, but the music
is awesome. The voiceover of the main character is awesome, and sometimes
pretty creepy. :)
 The developers says that there's 6 to 8 hours of gameplay, but I think
I've played it more than that, and as I'm writing this, I'm only half
through the game. 
 All the areas are very well described, and there are many things which
just fits nicely into the game, but you don't have to use. That makes it
harder to solve the puzzles, because there are many combinations.
 In some puzzles, the game kind of plays automatically which I have mixed
feelings about. I'm not sure, but it seems as you can easily miss some
important cutseens, because you might expect to do the puzzle manually, but
then the game does that automatically, so you might end up pressing the
screen, which might skip some cutseens. That means you sometimes have to
wait a few seconds to see if the game is loading or if you have to do the
puzzle on your own.
 
 Conklution:
 
 Is the game worth the price? Now I'm a gamer, so I'll say yes! :)
 Thinking of how much narration the game offers, the full translation in
three different languages, all those long cutseens, lots and lots of
puzzles, minigames which I haven't seen yet and the upcomming graphical
versions, I'll say the game is very much worth the price, especially when
those issues are fixed. But if you're not into puzzle solving and clicking
through a menu to play a game, it might not be for you.
 
 I'm really enjoying the game, and I'm looking very much forward to 

Fire 2?

 Hi, the link below is to a very short demo of the totally different way the 
 microphone on the iPhone 5 can sound when you take away apple’s processing. I 
 don’t know other apps that do this, but Fire 2 definitely does. You have the 
 way to control the volume, compression, limiter and other audio features. 
 There is a setting in the app that allows you to completely turn off the 
 microphone processing done by apple.
  
 First I use List Recorder to record the actual sound of the microphone with 
 all of apple’s audio processing turned on, which is the only way most apps 
 can do it.
  
 Next, there is a recording made in Fire 2 with the processing turned off.
  
 Enjoy.

 for me and I like more details, not less anyway. JMO. I guess this developer
 seems to think giving details in a weather app is not desired.

 Hi,
 
 When I look for conditions, I get over 300 results.  Can you give me 
 the name of the developer?
 I tried the first one just because it was simply called Conditions 
 but, no go.

 HI,
 
 I have not seen any chatter about these apps on the list so I thought 
 I
 would mention them. Forgive me if they have been talked about and I 
 missed the threads.
 
 The first is called VO Calendar. Its a calendar app that is written
 specifically for blind users. Sort of high priced but worth it in my 
 opinion. Anything that saves me time and aggravation is worth $10 in 
 my book. Give it a look see.
 
 The second app is called Conditions. It's a very simple weather app 
 that
 is also fully VO compatible. It's 99 cents and worth throwing a buck 
 at the programmer just because he included VO in his thoughts while 
 writing this app. Heard him on a podcast giving Marco Armant  the 
 credit for turning him on to VO.
 
 Have fun,
 
 Keith
