I've been toying with the idea of investing in a U2 for reading books, taking notes and performing similar quick tasks. Questions: 1. I've heard there are displays that let you type text and then send to the iDevice in one burst. I don't understand the mechanics of this, but what are the displays you know that do this? I'm going to miss some, but Hims' Braille Edge or any of their modern notetakers, and I think the newest Vario. This works by letting you type locally, then press a single key and have the display type your text rapidly into the text field. At least, that's how I understand it. 2. Is Braille input in iOS as dreadful as some people have made it out to be? I don't mind learning various keystrokes, but I do mind delays in transmition. Depends on your normal speed and how often you refer to your display to check what you're writing. I'll let someone else answer this one more fully 3. Is there a means to read BRF in iOS? The Bard app can do it, with a bit of fiddling. There's no native way or dedicated app, though. 4. What 32-cell display would you personally recommend? I don't know enough to say, but the Edge is 40 cells and reasonably priced. Thanks guys for any help.

RE: Replacing Braille Notetaker with iDevice
Back in the day, I was considering getting an Apex note taker and in fact had one for a few days to give it a spin. For the price though, I simply wasn't convinced. I instead set myself up with what was at that time an iPad 2, bluetooth keyboard and 40 cell Brailiant BI 40. The Apex would have run me $6,000.00. Whereas the iPad set up came in at around something like $4,000.00. I've since gotten different iPhones and iPads and bluetooth keyboards, but the BI 40 is stil going strong. There is absolutely no way I would ever buy a Braille note taker now. I'm sure being blind specific, there may be a few tasks that it may be better at than an iPad/iPhone/iPot Touch combo with a display, but not for the price difference. That and you can do so much more with an iOS device than just being stuck with Keysoft or whatever it's called that at this point, screams 2004. -Original Message- From: viphone@googlegroups.com [mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Joe Sent: Friday, June 19, 2015 2:24 PM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: Replacing Braille Notetaker with iDevice Hi, I'm curious to hear from people who have replaced their Braille notetaker with an iDevice.

Re: Replacing Braille Notetaker with iDevice
Hi Joe, I want to address your question about Braille input in iOS. In my view it is not fit for purpose. I don't know what it is about Braille input Apple doesn't get, whether the blind people they consult with about these things aren't Braille users, or what the deal is. They have the financial and technical resources to fix the issues if they were of a mind to, but sadly it appears we are going to see another major release of iOS without appropriately robust Braille input being available. As you know, some manufacturers have chosen to do Apple's work for them, and work around the woeful Braille input in iOS by keeping text in a buffer, then sending it to iOS all at once. I guess this is a pragmatic response, but it also let's Apple off the hook. Apple is a mainstream technology company, but they have also made the choice to be a screen reader company, and I don't believe they should be held to any lesser standard than any other screen reader company. They are receiving awards and praise and I don't begrudge them any of it. It is well deserved. But those of us who are passionate about not just the spread of Braille, but the very survival of Braille, need to stand up and be counted. There's no doubt that notetaker products can no longer keep up with the phrenetic pace of technology, if they ever really could. So just in terms of the range of things that can be done, getting an iThing is probably a better bet than a notetaker. And some adults may well be confident enough in their Braille skills to work around the shortcomings in Apple's Braille input. What really concerns me though is the kids, and in this case I believe notetakers will have a place unless and until Apple get it together when it comes to Braille input. I am pasting below a blog post I wrote a couple of years ago called The Apple Braille Crisis, it's got to be fixed for the kids. While some minor changes were made in iOS 8, it is mostly still relevant. Here it is. People from all walks of life, not just blind people, can get extremely partisan about their technology preferences. Anything their team does is unquestionably wonderful, while anything another company does is rubbish, simply by virtue of the fact that it’s the other guys who did it. If you criticise the company such people support, you’ve committed heresy. As blind people, I don’t believe we have the luxury of being so childish. Unemployment is high. Misconceptions abound regarding how capable we can be in the workplace, and in society as a whole. We need to be open to all solutions, and where possible, use the best mix of technology we can to be as productive, functional and self-reliant as we can. To be clear, I have enormous admiration for the way Apple has changed the game in assistive technology. When they released VoiceOver in 2009, I was concerned that Apple might do just enough to get people off its back regarding the inaccessibility of the iPhone. But that has not been the case. With every release, Apple has added tangible enhancements such as alternative forms of input, innovative ways for us to use the camera, and so much more. So Apple’s commitment to accessibility is real, its ongoing, and it has earned enormous praise and respect. Is there a “but” coming? Yes, there is, actually., because being grateful for a product doesn’t mean we don’t have rights as paying consumers to point out where a product falls short. But more than that, if Apple’s innovations risk killing off a category of product, and the literacy of our kids is threatened, we have a moral obligation to speak up constructively and ask Apple to engage with us as a community about fixing the issue. The Internet is buzzing with reports of bugs in iOS 7. I’m not unduly concerned about most of these, because I believe the majority of them will come out in the wash. iOS 7 was a massive refactoring of the OS. I hope that there’ll be fixes released steadily across the coming year. However, I am deeply troubled by Apple’s ongoing apparent failure to understand what constitutes Braille support of an appropriate quality. We’re not talking bugs in this case, we’re talking a fundamental user interface failure – a feature not fully fit for purpose. Since Braille was introduced in iOS, it has supported contracted Braille in English markets. This is a means by which space is saved, and speed increased, by using a series of symbols and abbreviations. When one reads contracted Braille in iOS, it works quite well. When one writes it, it is the worst implementation of contracted input I’ve ever used on any device. Since its inception, if you input a letter in contracted Braille which would be the abbreviation for a word if surrounded by spaces, iOS expands the word it represents if you pause for a short time before inputting the next character. For example, write “p” and it will quickly be expanded to the word “people”. If you are proofing a document you’ve brailled
On the subject of Zello
Hi all I am curious to know who might be using Zello with success on their idevices. I have started to use it, and for the most I can do the basic things. I am wondering about one particular function though. There is suppose to be a solo mode, which you use when you have multiple channels connected in Zello. If one use the solo mode, you won't hear any conversations happening on your other connected channels. I don't seem to find that particular solo slider, and to achieve the same result, I have to disconnect all the other channels first before using a channel of my own with no interfering speech happening. Does anybody know you one gets access to that solo slider, or is it not accessible using voiceover? Any help would be appreciated.

RE: Blind Square vs. Seeing Eye GPS
I find how Blindsquare announces stuff very unreliable. Sometimes I walk and it suddenly starts to constantly announce how far I travelled as in every few seconds and since I have a Seeing-Eye subscription for 3 years at this point I have taken Blindsquare off my device. I don't need GPS that often and prefer how the Seeing Eye app gives me information. I guess that goes to show how subjective this is, just like TTS voices and bluetooth headsets. -Original Message- From: viphone@googlegroups.com [mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Ann Byrne Sent: Friday, June 19, 2015 6:53 AM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: Blind Square vs. Seeing Eye GPS Is there a way to request Blind Square to announce how far you have traveled?

Re: Blind Square vs. Seeing Eye GPS
Hello Ann, If you look at the settings, you should find a button to open another screen where you select what happens when you shake your iPhone. Shake to read pedometer is what you want.

Re: Blind Square vs. Seeing Eye GPS
Hi Sieghard, the random announcements about your distance were likely caused by your phone being awake and its accelerometer being triggered. You can turn this off so that BlindSquare doesn’t react when your phone is shaken. This would solve that particular problem.

Sometimes I walk and it suddenly starts to constantly announce how far I travelled as in every few seconds and since I have a Seeing-Eye subscription for 3 years at this point I have taken Blindsquare off my device.

I guess that goes to show how subjective this is, just like TTS voices and bluetooth headsets. -Original Message- From: viphone@googlegroups.com [mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Ann Byrne Sent: Friday, June 19, 2015 6:53 AM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: Blind Square vs. Seeing Eye GPS Is there a way to request Blind Square to announce how far you have traveled?

It provides more information without you having to touch your screen. The seeing ehe app will announce streets, but only when you arrive at them, where as blindsquare will announce approaching streets from a distance. Also, blindsquare will frequently announce your current address and how far you have traveled. It doesn't have turn by turn directions the way the seeing eye app does but you can use other apps for that. H, maybe I should do a pod cast comparing those 2 apps.

My windows explorer problem
I got a wonderful response to my windows explorer hang problem and thought I'd paste it here for everyone's benefit. Hi Larry, funny you should bring this up as I had this problem a week or so ago and couldn't fathom out what was going on. It turned out that the preview window in Windows explorer had got turned on (I didn't even know there was such a thing in WE!), this meant that as you cursored down a folder the PC would try to open each file and eventually jam up, though it did start responding a couple of minutes later. I don't know which screen reader you are using, but Jaws didn't show the preview window so I was blind as to what was happening. It is not unknown for Windows updates to change settings inadvertantly so this could be an explanation as to what went on as opposed to just finger trouble on my part. Hope this helps. -- The following information is important for all members of the viphone list. All new members to the this list are moderated by default.

Re: Blind Square vs. Seeing Eye GPS
BlindSquare has a number of features that SeeingEye GPS lacks, such as the ability to mark your own points of interest. I use this all the time to mark bus bays, the entrances to train stations, and so forth. It is a great indication to keep me on track as I’m getting on and off busses and walking around. In my experience, BlindSquare is significantly friendlier in terms of battery life and can therefore be used for far longer in between charges. BlindSquare also can be operated via an external accessory such as the Apple headset remote, which means you can get info and mark points of interest without needing to take your phone out of your pocket and unlock it. BlindSquare also supports displaying messages and receiving commands via a Braille display. In truth, SeeingEye GPS is a very basic app in comparison, and in my view has seen only minor updates since it launched. BlindSquare is quite feature rich, and is regularly updated with new features. However, SeeingEye GPS does have two features that BlindSquare lacks. Those are the ability to have intersections described in more detail, whereas BlindSquare just announces the street names; as well as integrated turn by turn directions. Both apps offer a feature whereby you can spin your phone around and hear intersections and places in a given direction. Of course, you should be certain to check which countries are supported by each app before purchase, as I do not remember this off hand but I recall it is quite limited.

Re: Question about Voice Dream Reader capacity
Shannon, When your phone is connected to iTunes on your computer, under the file transfer area, voice Dream Reader does have a file that you can save to your computer. I have never saved this file and then reimported it back into voice Dream reader. I think it is a backup of your library. I have never had any of my books disappear from voice Dream Reader. You might consider deleting the app and reinstalling it after you backup your voice dream reader library. You might consider starting a new email conversation on this list asking about backing up and restoring your voice Dream Reader library via iTunes. I’ve never done it and so it might be best to ask to make sure that it will work.

Re: Question about Voice Dream Reader capacity
Yes, I recall that originally it was necessary to copy that library database manually but I think an update a while back rendered this unnecessary. I too have a large library of books on VDR and would hate to lose them so I would also appreciate confirmation from one of the experienced list members about how to back up that library via iTunes so a new device could be restored from that backup with all books present and correct!
