Re: still cannot clear notification center!!
I've found two solutions to this problem. You can either leave things as they are and delete each item individually with the actions rotor item, or you can go to settings, general, reset and reset all your phone settings. The second option is more of a pain, because you may lose your passwords, unless you restore from an encrypted iTunes backup. I only used the second method accidentally, as I was trying to reset settings to attempt to correct a Bluetooth keyboard issue. That issue didn't change, but I was suddenly able to use triple-tap to clear notifications. Please note: this is a bug that has been reported by some. This bug does not allow you to clear the notifications either with a double-tap twice or a triple-tap.

Re: KNFB Reader dropts to $49.99
I would like to remind people that Prizmo is also an excellent app!it is cheaper and reads the text as soon as it is recognised just as quickly as the KNFB reader does.however, the interface is a little more clunky.I find it is a great partner to the K and FB reader.that is, if one doesn't manage very well, then, the other probably will.

Blocking groups on whatsapp
dear all. someone added me to a group on whatsapp without my consent. How can I get rid of that group? Please let me know how to ensure that I am not added to groups without my consent? My primary concern is to ensure that messages from this group don't reach me. It is annoying to be swamped by unnecessary messages. Will appreciate any help.

Re: Voice dream writer with braille display
Hi, If you use the cursor controls to move through a document, you can move to the previous item, and braille will be exactly where the cursor is. It's not ideal, but it does mean braille is still useful if you can hear VoiceOver. Best, Anna On Jan 28, 2015, at 11:41 PM, Deb Lewis deblewi...@gmail.com wrote: Yeah, I think the reading portion is not dependent on Voiceover at all so therefore doesn't track with the braille. You can read with braille but it's not synced. Also if you needto get speech and braille together you have to just search. It's really not a workable app for Braille which is frustrating for me sinc most of the users I support are braille only. I do hope he corrects this, and I think I'll write and volunteer to help in any way I can. But I think the app would need an option to tie into VO for raille to work correctly. That's why it does work int he editor BTW.

Re: KNFB Reader dropts to $49.99
Yes, the 4S does work, but I find it's best to remove all items from the app switcher as sometimes I don't get results, possibly because of a memory hungry app needing to use more resources.

It's a writing tool -- or word processor -- designed for the same people who found my reading app useful. Voice Dream Writer's goal is to help everyone be a better writer. Three powerful features make this possible: Text-to-speech proofreading reduces mistakes; phonetic and meaning word search improves spelling and word usage; and synchronized outline helps organizing and structuring compositions. To learn more, watch me demonstrate it here: http://www.voicedream.com/writer/ Like the Reader, it's a labor of love. Since last year, this app lived with me day and night. It's been all consuming and exhilarating. Writer is available in the App Store in English speaking countries for now. The normal price is $9.99, but until this Sunday it'll be on sale for $7.99.

[New post] You know, blind people can actually use touchscreens
You know, blind people can actually use touchscreens http://macdailynews.com/2015/01/29/you-know-blind-people-can-actually-use-touchscreens/by MacDailyNews http://macdailynews.com/author/macdailynews/ [cfsp key=adsense_336x280]a href=http://www.applevis.com/blog/advocacy-apple-applevis-assistive-technology-braille-ios-ipad-news-opinion/note-mainstream http://www.applevis.com/blog/advocacy-apple-applevis-assistive-technology-braille-ios-ipad-news-opinion/note-mainstream target=_newBy Michael Hansen Over the last couple years, I’ve come to a conclusion about life as a blind person: it isn’t the physical lack of sight that’s the biggest difficulty I face; but rather, it is attempting to overcome peoples’ negative stereotypes and misconceptions about what I can — and cannot — do that is the real problem. When I think of situations where negative stereotypes about blind people come into play, the use of technology isn’t the first thing that comes to mind. I tend to think about education, or employment, or parenting long before I think of access to the latest and greatest tech. But, as a recent Wired article about a new Braille-writing app demonstrated, misconceptions still abound about what technology blind people are able to gainfully use. The article, published on January 23, 2015, was written about a new iPad app called iBrailler Notes. The app, which allows users to type notes on their iPad using Braille, was just recently released on the App Store. iBrailler’s main selling point is a Dynamic Keyboard — a feature which adjusts the position of the Braille keyboard each and every time you place your fingers on the screen. It’s always great to see mainstream media outlets reporting on news impacting the visually impaired, because these stories often educate the public about just how much empowerment blind people can have through the use of assistive technology. What isn’t so great, however, is when journalists get very important details wrong and thus inaccurately represent a story — and therein lies my motivation for writing this post. In the first paragraph of the Wired article, the author states that it is nearly impossible for blind people to use devices with touchscreens: The proliferation of touchscreen technology may have revolutionized mobile computer input for most everyone, but there’s one sector of the population that isn’t exactly feeling the pinch, the tap, or the swipe: the blind. It’s nearly impossible to interact with elements on a totally smooth screen if you can’t see. Put simply, the author’s facts are completely inaccurate. Thanks to Apple’s excellent implementation of VoiceOver screen-reading technology, blind users are able to fully and independently utilize the touchscreens on their devices. Need to find a specific app on your home screen? No problem! Either flick left or right with one finger and listen to VoiceOver read the app names as you pass them; or you can just move your finger around the screen to get an idea of the layout. Want to send an e-mail? You got it! Your options include using the touchscreen keyboard in three different typing modes; built-in Braille Screen Input; Handwriting Mode; and of course, dictation. (That’s another thing that gets on my nerves: dictation is not the be-all-and-end-all solution for text entry on an iOS device if you are blind.) iOS isn't for you? Have no fear! It’s possible to use a touchscreen on an Android device as well, even if the experience isn’t as polished as it is on iOS. Oh, and about those gestures that blind people supposedly can’t feel: not only can blind users tap, pinch, and swipe; we can two-, three-, and four-finger double-tap; we can write Braille with Apple’s built-in Braille keyboard feature; and we can even use Handwriting Mode if we so desire. For being nearly impossible to use, Apple’s touchscreen-equipped devices are popular with blind people the world over. Android, while not as accessible as iOS, also has blind people using touchscreen devices. It’s even possible to use touchscreen Windows 8.1 computers with screen reading software. The only mobile phone platform blind people don’t have access to is BlackBerry, but who really uses that in 2015, anyway? It is worth noting that not all touchscreen technology is currently accessible to blind people. As one of my readers pointed out, point-of-sale systems, ATM machines, and any other touchscreen-equipped devices that do not have speech output are not useable by blind people without sighted assistance. However, blind people do have the capability to use touchscreen devices if appropriate assistive technology solutions are implemented—a point the author conveniently failed to mention in the article. Further down in the article, the author contradicts herself by stating, correctly, that the iPad was completely accessible to blind users from day one — thanks to VoiceOver. And yes, that includes the nearly

Looking for music app with cross fading
I'm looking for a music playback app that can do cross fading and even normalizing if at all possible. I used to use an app called Muxica but for whatever reason, it has stopped working as of IOS 8.x. I've deleted it and reinstalled with no improvement so I'd like to find a similar app to replace it. Any suggestions welcomed. Best regards, Rick Alfaro -- The following information is important for all members of the viphone list. All new members to the this list are moderated by default.

That issue didn't change, but I was suddenly able to use triple-tap to clear notifications. Please note: this is a bug that has been reported by some.

Re: [New post] You know, blind people can actually use touchscreens
Ah, a good post. From my experience though, it isn't always the main stream media that's at fault when some facts and expectations are misrepresented. I've seen plenty a marketing brochure or press release from a company making products for the blind that do more than imply that some technology was off limits by the blind until they put out there product. Some of this is to be expected; obviously a company is going to hype their products, but IMHO, I've seen this carried too far in quite a few instances. On 01/29/2015 01:39 PM, christopher hallsworth wrote: You know, blind people can actually use touchscreens http://macdailynews.com/2015/01/29/you-know-blind-people-can-actually-use-touchscreens/ by MacDailyNews http://macdailynews.com/author/macdailynews/ [cfsp key=adsense_336x280]a href=http://www.applevis.com/blog/advocacy-apple-applevis-assistive-technology-braille-ios-ipad-news-opinion/note-mainstream; target=_newBy Michael Hansen Over the last couple years, I’ve come to a conclusion about life as a blind person: it isn’t the physical lack of sight that’s the biggest difficulty I face; but rather, it is attempting to overcome peoples’ negative stereotypes and misconceptions about what I can — and cannot — do that is the real problem. When I think of situations where negative stereotypes about blind people come into play, the use of technology isn’t the first thing that comes to mind. I tend to think about education, or employment, or parenting long before I think of access to the latest and greatest tech. But, as a recent /Wire/d article about a new Braille-writing app demonstrated, misconceptions still abound about what technology blind people are able to gainfully use. The article, published on January 23, 2015, was written about a new iPad app called iBrailler Notes. The app, which allows users to type notes on their iPad using Braille, was just recently released on the App Store. iBrailler’s main selling point is a Dynamic Keyboard — a feature which adjusts the position of the Braille keyboard each and every time you place your fingers on the screen. It’s always great to see mainstream media outlets reporting on news impacting the visually impaired, because these stories often educate the public about just how much empowerment blind people can have through the use of assistive technology. What isn’t so great, however, is when journalists get very important details wrong and thus inaccurately represent a story — and therein lies my motivation for writing this post. In the first paragraph of the /Wired/ article, the author states that it is nearly impossible for blind people to use devices with touchscreens: /The proliferation of touchscreen technology may have revolutionized mobile computer input for most everyone, but there’s one sector of the population that isn’t exactly feeling the pinch, the tap, or the swipe: the blind. It’s nearly impossible to interact with elements on a totally smooth screen if you can’t see./ Put simply, the author’s facts are completely inaccurate. Thanks to Apple’s excellent implementation of VoiceOver screen-reading technology, blind users are able to fully and independently utilize the touchscreens on their devices. Need to find a specific app on your home screen? No problem! Either flick left or right with one finger and listen to VoiceOver read the app names as you pass them; or you can just move your finger around the screen to get an idea of the layout. Want to send an e-mail? You got it! Your options include using the touchscreen keyboard in three different typing modes; built-in Braille Screen Input; Handwriting Mode; and of course, dictation. (That’s another thing that gets on my nerves: dictation is not the be-all-and-end-all solution for text entry on an iOS device if you are blind.) iOS isn't for you? Have no fear! It’s possible to use a touchscreen on an Android device as well, even if the experience isn’t as polished as it is on iOS. Oh, and about those gestures that blind people supposedly can’t feel: not only can blind users tap, pinch, and swipe; we can two-, three-, and four-finger double-tap; we can write Braille with Apple’s built-in Braille keyboard feature; and we can even use Handwriting Mode if we so desire. For being nearly impossible to use, Apple’s touchscreen-equipped devices are popular with blind people the world over. Android, while not as accessible as iOS, also has blind people using touchscreen devices. It’s even possible to use touchscreen Windows 8.1 computers with screen reading software. The only mobile phone platform blind people don’t have access to is BlackBerry, but who really uses that in 2015, anyway? It is worth noting that not all touchscreen technology is currently accessible to blind people. As one of my readers pointed out, point-of-sale systems, ATM machines, and any other touchscreen-equipped devices that do not have speech output are not useable by blind people without
Re: opening a document in voice dream writer

recording app for IPhone 5s
Hi, is there an accessible recording app for the IPhone 5s that will work even when the screen is locked, and if you leave it recording in a room for a couple of hours, will only record when some one is speaking and delete large silent spaces? please let me know.

RE: Update is out!
Hi all, What I figured out is a combination of what Sieghard was saying and the fact that it worked for me for a while but couldn't figure out what I had done. If you double tap and hold on an app above the bottom row and then hit the home button, you can double tap on an app in the bottom row and it will offer to delete it. Say no, press the home button once and double tap the app in the bottom row again and you can move it anywhere you want. I don't call this solving a problem but it's a work around until they decide to fix it. Ron Danvers -- The following information is important for all members of the viphone list.

Re: [New post] You know, blind people can actually use touchscreens
Hyping your product is one thing, lying is another. --- Be positive! When it comes to being defeated, if you think you're finished, you! really! are! finished! - Original Message - From: Christopher Chaltain chalt...@gmail.com To: viphone@googlegroups.com Sent: Thursday, January 29, 2015 7:13 PM Subject: Re: [New post] You know, blind people can actually use touchscreens Ah, a good post. From my experience though, it isn't always the main stream media that's at fault when some facts and expectations are misrepresented. I've seen plenty a marketing brochure or press release from a company making products for the blind that do more than imply that some technology was off limits by the blind until they put out there product. Some of this is to be expected; obviously a company is going to hype their products, but IMHO, I've seen this carried too far in quite a few instances.

When I think of situations where negative stereotypes about blind people come into play, the use of technology isn’t the first thing that comes to mind. I tend to think about education, or employment, or parenting long before I think of access to the latest and greatest tech. But, as a recent /Wire/d article about a new Braille-writing app demonstrated, misconceptions still abound about what technology blind people are able to gainfully use. The article, published on January 23, 2015, was written about a new iPad app called iBrailler Notes. The app, which allows users to type notes on their iPad using Braille, was just recently released on the App Store. iBrailler’s main selling point is a Dynamic Keyboard — a feature which adjusts the position of the Braille keyboard each and every time you place your fingers on the screen. It’s always great to see mainstream media outlets reporting on news impacting the visually impaired, because these stories often educate the public about just how much empowerment blind people can have through the use of assistive technology. What isn’t so great, however, is when journalists get very important details wrong and thus inaccurately represent a story — and therein lies my motivation for writing this post. In the first paragraph of the /Wired/ article, the author states that it is nearly impossible for blind people to use devices with touchscreens: /The proliferation of touchscreen technology may have revolutionized mobile computer input for most everyone, but there’s one sector of the population that isn’t exactly feeling the pinch, the tap, or the swipe: the blind. It’s nearly impossible to interact with elements on a totally smooth screen if you can’t see./ Put simply, the author’s facts are completely inaccurate. Thanks to Apple’s excellent implementation of VoiceOver screen-reading technology, blind users are able to fully and independently utilize the touchscreens on their devices. Need to find a specific app on your home screen? No problem! Either flick left or right with one finger and listen to VoiceOver read the app names as you pass them; or you can just move your finger around the screen to get an idea of the layout. Want to send an e-mail? You got it! Your options include using the touchscreen keyboard in three different typing modes; built-in Braille Screen Input; Handwriting Mode; and of course, dictation. (That’s another thing that gets on my nerves: dictation is not the be-all-and-end-all solution for text entry on an iOS device if you are blind.) iOS isn't for you? Have no fear! It’s possible to use a touchscreen on an Android device as well, even if the experience isn’t as polished as it is on iOS. Oh, and about those gestures that blind people supposedly can’t feel: not only can blind users tap, pinch, and swipe; we can two-, three-, and four-finger double-tap; we can write Braille with Apple’s built-in Braille keyboard feature; and we can even use Handwriting Mode if we so desire. For being nearly impossible to use, Apple’s touchscreen-equipped devices are popular with blind people the world over. Android, while not as accessible as iOS, also has blind people using touchscreen devices. It’s even possible to use touchscreen Windows 8.1 computers with screen reading software.

Maximising storage and battery life on my IPhone/IPad - any ideas?
Hi all I'm sure this has been discussed many times before, so apologies in advance. Now that I have a new IPhone and IPad Mini I really want to make an effort to maximise the storage space on them and keep them as clear from unwanted/unnecessary stuff being downloaded onto them without me knowing/realising. I know for the Mac there are things like Memory Clean, Disk Doctor and Clean My Mac. But just wondered if anyone knew of a good app which is accessible and which might do a similar thing for my IPhone/IPad?? Also, on a secondary point, does anyone know of any good/accessible battery management apps for the IPhone/IPad, as I'd like to make the most out of that too and preserve it for as long as possible. I do have an external battery, but obviously don't want to use this unless I have to. I'm also a bit worried if you can overcharge an IPhone/IPad? I do always try to let them run down completely, but when I charge them I'm never sure how long to leave them on for, and then I always panick that I mighht have overdone it so-to-speak and ruined/reduced my battery's life. So how long should you charge one of these devices for? Any other ideas on how I could possibly proloong/preserve my battery? So if anyone has any tips on how I can do either of these things would all be much appreciated. Many thanks.

RE: Looking for music app with cross fading
Hi, Yep, the only real issue is when changing between Spotify and your local music library. This was fixed a version or two ago, but is now broken, you need to toggle voiceover off now to choose the option you want. Once you know where the icons are, it is quite easy to do, although not ideal.
