RE: iPhone 8 with iOS 13.1.2 really short battery life

2019-10-11 Thread Sieghard Weitzel 
Close all apps in the app switcher, then go to Settings > General > Reset and 
select to Reset Network Settings.
After the phone reboots you have to rejoin your WiFi including entering your 
password and if your phone was called something like Donald's iPhone you have 
to go to Settings > General > About and rename it. After a Reset Network 
Settings the name is simply reset to "iPhone".
Often doing this can have a very positive effect.

Sieghard

Battery health says it is at about 87%.

No navigation apps open as far as I can tell from the app switcher.

Customising haptics?

2019-10-11 Thread 'Harry Bell' via VIPhone 
On a podcast I heard that in iOS 13 (I’m running iOS 13.1.2 on my iPhone XS) it 
is possible to turn on or off haptic feedback for things like when you 3-finger 
swipe left or right between screens of apps. I cannot find where in Settings I 
can cutomise these - can someone help?
Thanks

Is anyone using this app and can say whether it is accessible? I have seen it 
recommended as an easy way to create a group which can repeatedly be used to 
send messages to an entire group of recipients.

Re: To Upgrade or not to Upgrade, that is the Question

2019-10-11 Thread dani pagador 
For as much as I complained about VO dropping out after phone/FaceTime
calls, I'm really glad I did the upgrade to the IOS13. I got a call
that went to voicemail this morning that was a SSA scam that said my
number would be suspended due to fraudulent activity, that I would be
arrested, and to kindly press 1 (I'm not kidding) for more
information. I was able to use the voicemail recording and the info VO
provided to give an accurate account of the call to the FTC when I
filed my complaint with them after the call came in.

Yay, Apple.

Do the upgrade. Just have a pair of wired earbuds handy to get VO back
if it kicks out after a call. I hung up just a few minutes ago from a
call (without being plugged in), and lost speech but still had
sound--I could hear the clicks as I swiped right and left. I grabbed
my wired earbuds, plugged in, and VO was back.

HTH,
Dani

Re: are any guitarists familiar with this?Talking Tab - Talking Tab is the world's first platform for converting electronic tab files into a screen reader friendly format.

2019-10-11 Thread Richard Turner 
I wouldn't say I'm familiar with it, but I experimented with it a year or more 
ago.
It is pretty time intensive to copy each part to get it converted.
I think you did basically one line at a time.
Though it worked, but was more tedious than I was willing to deal with at the 
time.
Maybe someone else has a better grasp on it, or they have updated it.
Later,

groups app - to send messages to multiple recipients

2019-10-11 Thread Cher Bosch 
Is anyone using this app and can say whether it is accessible? I have seen
it recommended as an easy way to create a group which can repeatedly be used
to send messages to an entire group of recipients.

No navigation apps open as far as I can tell from the app switcher.

Hello,

I am using the latest version of iPhone 13.1.2 and the latest version of apple 
watch, series 4.
I have my watch paired to mirror the iPhone.  When I put my iPhone on mute, and 
the watch on mute, when I get a phone call, the watch still rings.  Is there a 
way to silence the ringer on the watch?  I don’t want it ringing in church or a

Any help is appreciated.  Before the update, all worked fine.

Hi,

I have noticed in the two weeks since I upgraded my iPhone 8 to iOS
13.1.2 tghat my battery life is significantly shorter.  As in from a
100% charge with hte phone just sitting on my desk not plugged in and
when I am not using it for anything, the battery drains to 50% within
a couple of hours.

If I am listening to an audio book, it can go to 0% within 3-4 hours.

Has anyone else noticed this issue, and is there any way to help
preserve battery life?

I will be travelling in a few weeks and I need my phone to be working
at its best then.

Thanks,

When edit fields are dimmed out

2019-10-11 Thread Duane Steele 
Hello again, Friends,

My banking APP, like so many we get used to, in a recent update has made it 
very difficult to do some tasks that used to be easy.  I want to send some 
spending loot to one of my grandsons who's in college but doesn't use Zelle.  
But I can't find a way to change his address to the place he's living at 
school.  I can check the appropriate box to make a payment to his account, but 
his name is dimmed out so that I can't double-tap on it as I used to do.  When 
fields are dimmed out in voiceOver, what can one do?  I've contacted my bank.  
I've tried to add him again as a new payee, and nothing seems to work.  Any 
ideas or suggestions will be very helpful.  I am reluctant to ask for sighted 
help on this, and shouldn't have to.  Thanks in advance for any help in this.


Peace & Blessings,
Duane L. Steele

RE: Voicedream scanner questions

2019-10-11 Thread khevener 
Terri, I think this scanner is well worth the money.  Like Richard, I wish it 
could read columns.  As it stands now, I use it to check mail.  Even though I 
may not get everything, I definitely get enough to know if the mail is junk or 
needs more serious attention.  I like the speed and the tone to help you align 
the page for accurate scan.  I also like the fact that you do not have to worry 
at lighting in your room, as the scanner adjusts lighting.

Subject: Voicedream scanner questions

Hello everyone,

I was considering purchasing Voicedream scanner. I haven’t ever used this 
before.

For those of you who use it, what do you think about it?
What are some things you like about it?
And what are some things you don’t like about it?

Also, if I find a PDF online, could I somehow download it to Voicedream 
scanner, and read it?
If so, how might I do this?

Any help, or thoughts about this App is much appreciated.

Thank you,

Terri

In my opinion, it is the best OCR app you could buy. 

My only wish is that it could handle columns.

But, if it is text in paragraph format, it is brilliant.

If you also have Voice Dream Reader, you could put the PDF in it, and then it 
would use Voice Dream Scanner to recognize the document.

I've not tried to open a PDF from the web directly with Voice Dream Scanner 
though if it showed up in the share sheet, that would work.

RE: Shortcuts not fully accessible in ios13.xx

2019-10-11 Thread Carolyn Arnold 
I did report the VoiceOver problem to Apple, and Jessica there told me that the 
more complaints gathered, the more attention would be given to the matter. I am 
thinking they are pretty slow, but I'd rather have a real fix than a quick slap 
dab that didn't really solve the problem. 

Best regards,

Carolyn

There is definitely a bug for many users where Voiceover and, for me at least, 
all other sounds and vibrations go away after ending some calls. You should 
write to Apple Accessibility and also report it because even though they are 
saying that they are investigating the issue with no timeline as to when it 
will be fixed, the more complaints they hear, the more likely they are to work 
on it.

As for your statement regarding Steve Jobs I can only say that nobody knows 
whether anything would be different were he still alive. The iPhone and iOS is 
a very different animal now than it was in those first few years and even Steve 
Jobs may not have been able to always add "one more thing" and keep everything 
as polished as it maybe was in the beginning when they didn't have that many 
users and all the competition to keep up with.

It seems accessible enough. You can check out all the games state-wide and 
nationally and their results, but there doesn't appear to be any means to 
actually buy a ticket or play any of the games.
Poking around online, there actually appear to be all sorts of sites and 
services to purchase lottery tickets from all kinds of games. There are even 
sites dedicated to ranking the best and most trustworthy companies to play 
with. I mean really, who knew... 
I'll pass along this info to him, but again, as I originally asked, if there's 
anyone who has played or used any of these online services in an accessible 
manner, it would be good to know as well.

Here in Canada you can buy any of the lottery tickets online (Lottomax, 6-49 
etc.) at the website PlayNow.
What I don’t know is whether this website is available in the US and offers you 
lottery tickets from US and local lotteries there.

Interesting question.  I think this may be difficult to find.  When we order 
from our local grocery store using Instacart, we aren't allowed to request that 
they bring lottery tickets as part of the order.  I'm not sure why, but there 
you go.  You would think it should be possible for a third party to do this, 
but I am not aware of a way.

I don’t know his exact and particular day to day circumstances other than he’s 
a bachelor, but I guess physically going to pick one up consistently or as 
frequently as he’d like isn’t an option for him.
For those who live in So Cal and are familiar with the area, he lives in San 
Bernardino which isn’t the most welcoming or safest place to be wandering 
around either.
Not to be throwing his business all out there, but his vision loss is 
progressive. I suppose previously he had enough sight to get by, but now… 
Anyway, thought I’d do a friend a solid and ask around.

I assume the fact that he is asking friends or family to buy for him means he 
doesn’t like to or is not able to go out himself? There are a lot of places 
where you can buy a lottery ticket, here in Canada at most drug stores, 
7-Eleven stores etc.

Hello list,
So not for me, but rather a friend who is visually impaired. He’s tired of 
asking friends/family to buy him a lottery ticket and being told that it’s out 
of their way or they don’t’ have time etc. I don’t really play so have never 
looked into anything like this, so I told him I’d ask in case anyone plays 
lotto and how they buy their tickets.
I think I’ve heard of online lotto ticket buying services in the past, but 
again, never paid it much mind.
Does anyone on here play? This is for California. I don’t know if he plays the 
state lotto or just powerball or whatever, but I guess to be on the safe side, 
something that covers the national and California  super lotto games. 
Trustworthy, accessible and on the level and all that.
If so, what service do you use? I think he’s got an iPhone so if there’s an iOS 
app that can accomplish the same it would be good to know as well.

Thanks,

It will be based on how much power you need. Amazon has the Amazon Basic that 
is 700 watts and works with Alexa if you happen to have an amazon echo. It has 
made life more convenient for my wife and myself. I think some other companies 
might have larger models.

Subject: Microwave ovens and iPhone control

Hi, list. 
I am about to purchase a new microwave and am wondering if access through my 
iPhone is the best way to go, as most models are touch screen now and don’t 
have speech access, and so would need to be labeled. 
What app would I need and can it be set up easily? 
I have an 8 Plus phone and a 17 inch counter space.
