Re: Separating one or more messages from a thread

[Richard Turner]

Are you talking about emails or text messages.
If emails, before you open the thread, flick up with one finger until you hear 
expand thread.
Double tap.
Now, the messages are separated.
As for printing, double tap the more actions button, where you would go to 
reply, and keep flicking right through there and you will find a print button.
HTH,


Richard

young."
"Why, what did she tell you?"

Re: a printing question

[Dave Clement]

Hi, 

Assuming the printer has been set up on your WIFI network and your phone uses 
the same WIFI network then all you need do is:

1. Open the item you want to print.
2. Double tap the "share" button that should accompany it or bring up the 
context menu using double tap and hold and locate the "share" button there. 
3. Scroll down until you find the "print" option and double tap that.
4. IOS should look for printers and identify yours. Double tap on it and the 
item should print.

I do have it set up so I get my mail by thread but there’s just a large amount

Re: iCloud Account and Setting It Up With IMAP

[Mike B]

Hi Brad,

Here are 2 different sets of settings that only vary slightly:
https://www.lifewire.com/what-are-icloud-mail-imap-settings-1170502

Settings 1:
When you set up an email client to use your iCloud Mail account, you'll need 
the iCloud Mail IMAP settings to download your email. Separate from IMAP 
settings
are the SMTP server settings, which the email program uses to send mail. 
Without the SMTP email settings, the email client doesn't know how to send 
mail
on your behalf through your iCloud Mail account.
Note: The email server settings below are the same no matter where you use 
your iCloud Mail account, whether on a desktop email program, mobile email 
app
on your phone or tablet, or elsewhere.
Lifewire figure
An illustration of the iMail IMAP and SMTP Settings.
Lifewire figure end
Note: You don't need these settings if you set up an account using iCloud 
Preferences on a Mac with OS X Lion 10.7.4 or later, iCloud for Windows on a
PC for Outlook 2010 through 2016, or iCloud settings on an Apple mobile 
device with iOS 7 or later.
IMAP Settings for Incoming Mail Server
View your email app documentation to find out where to enter these settings. 
The location varies among providers.
Note: The iCloud Mail program uses IMAP servers to download
email.
iCloud does not support POP mail.
Use these settings to manually set up an email program's incoming mail 
server for use with your iCloud Mail account so that Mail can download your 
mail
messages:
list of 5 items
Server name: imap.mail.me.com
SSL required: Yes
Port: 993
Username: Type the name part only of your iCloud email address, don't 
include the @icloud.com. johnsmith  is an example.
Password: Type an app-specific iCloud Mail password.
list end
Note: The email server settings are the same for any email provider you 
connect to your iCloud Mail account.
iCloud Mail SMTP Settings for Outgoing Mail Server
These outgoing mail server settings are needed to send email from your 
iCloud Mail account through the email program:
list of 6 items
Server name:  smtp.mail.me.com
SSL required: Yes
Port: 587
SMTP authentication required: Yes
Username: Type your full iCloud email address, including your name and 
@icloud.com. An example is johnsm...@icloud.com
Password: Use the password you set up for the incoming mail server.
list end
Tips and Troubleshooting
While the steps above work in most cases, here are a few tips for when they 
don't.
list of 3 items
If you see an error message when using SSL, use TLS instead.
Try port 465 if you can't send iCloud emails on port 587.
When typing your iCloud Mail email address, most email clients require the 
whole address and not only the username. For example, consider 
exam...@icloud.com or exam...@me.com.
Both are acceptable. Using only example  is not acceptable . However, if 
that doesn't work, drop the last part and use the username ( example , in 
this
instance).
list end
Since 2017, you need to enable
two-step authentication
 for your iCloud account and
create an application-specific password
 to use with IMAP. If you don't know your iCloud Mail password,
you can reset it.


Settings 2:
Setup Your Icloud.com Account with Your Email Program Using IMAP

 To access your Icloud.com email account from a desktop email program, 
you'll need the IMAP and SMTP settings below:

table with 2 columns and 5 rows
 Icloud.com IMAP Server
imap.mail.me.com
IMAP port
993
IMAP security
SSL / TLS
IMAP username
Your full email address
IMAP password
Your Icloud.com password
table end

table with 2 columns and 5 rows
 Icloud.com SMTP Server
smtp.mail.me.com
SMTP port
587
SMTP security
STARTTLS
SMTP username
Your full email address
SMTP password
Your Icloud.com password
table end



Stay safe and take care.  Mike.

You need to download and install iCloud for Windows on your PC.
Once you do this, and complete the setup, iCloud email will just show up in 
your Outlook email client.
You should also be aware that the iCloud for Windows interface has some 
accessibility issues, but you can enable the JAWS TouchCursor to help with 
this.

The benefit of an iCloud backup is to keep changes, settings, photos,
videos, and other unique and created data backed up before it can be
transferred to a computer hard drive. Rips of CD’s and DVD’s do not
need to be backed up in the cloud because they are already on a
computer hard drive.

RE: Is There a Way to Mute Topics From This List Please?

[Alan Lemly]

Hi Richard,

I don't know when the new pricing took effect but I believe it was sometime in 
February. Plans existing prior to then were grandfathered in without charge. 
The Premium plan which costs $20 per month provides 30GB of storage space and 
up to 500 members. The Basic plan is still free and provides 1GB of storage but 
is limited to 100 members. Check it out here:

Re: Recording conversations using the iPhone

[Julia Kulak]

There  used to be a few Apps out there that work. It has been a couple of years 
since I have used them however. When I was looking into them, I did a search 
for record phone calls on the App Store. I do not know if any of them are still 
accessible. Julia.

Re: iCloud Account and Setting It Up With IMAP

[Brad Snyder]

You need to download and install iCloud for Windows on your PC.
Once you do this, and complete the setup, iCloud email will just show up in 
your Outlook email client.
You should also be aware that the iCloud for Windows interface has some 
accessibility issues, but you can enable the JAWS TouchCursor to help with this.

All help is greatly appreciated. Thanks much.

Re: Recording conversations using the iPhone

[Richard Turner]

Assuming this is in person, the Voice Memos app that is built in will do a very 
nice job.
If you are talking about when you are talking over the phone, no there isn't.
If you had another recording device you could put the phone on speaker.

"You know," said Arthur, "it's at times like this, when I'm trapped in a Vogon 
airlock with a man from Betelgeuse, and about to die of asphyxiation in deep 
space, that I really wish I'd listened to what my mother told me when I was 
young."
"Why, what did she tell you?"
"I don't know, I didn't listen."

There is a voice memos app which is pretty basic that comes with the phone, 
or there are several paid recorder apps.

If I want to record a conversation (such as between myself and my doctor) 
using my iPhone 7, is there a built-in app or should I download one?

If I need to download one, which app would you recommend?

I hope this is not too elementary a question to ask!
But I would really appreciate your advice, and thank you in advance.

Do you know what they will be charging and how many members it takes to start 
costing?
I did not find anything in my brief exploration of their site.

Re: Light probe

[Richard Turner]

Yes, Seeing AI has a good one, but you have to go through switching channels, 
whereas Boop light detector or one called just Light detector work as soon as 
you launch them.
Any or all are good solutions.

iCloud Account and Setting It Up With IMAP

[Mike B]

Hi All,

I'm running an SE 2020 iPhone with iOS14.4.  I finally got an iCloud email 
account established but, I would like to be able to access it using an IMAP 
account from my Windows PC's and my email client.

>From my various searches I found I need to do the following:
Since 2017, you need to enable two-step authentication for your iCloud 
account and create an application-specific password
 to use with IMAP.

I do have 2-step authentication enabled on my iPhone but, do I need to do 
this with my iCloud email account as well?

Also, how do I go about creating an application-specific password for an 
IMAP account and my email client?
All help is greatly appreciated. Thanks much.




Stay safe and take care.  Mike.

Re: Echo or Alexa Show

[Brad Snyder]

In order to listen to the Dot-2-Dot podcast on your Echo device, you have to 
ask Alexa to play something like “Play the Daily Skills Podcast” or something 
similar.  I can’t remember exactly what the command is because I don’t listen 
to podcast on my Echo device.

You can create a Rule to delete messages with certain words/character strings 
in the subject field.
You can also create a rule to delete messages from a specific sender’s address.
Both of these practices work very well.

Hi,
We have the Cuckoo and I love it.
However, both time and temperature do not talk.
Also, it is possible to reset back to factory defaults if you ever need to do

 Johna, 
 I didn’t mean to devalue your message. It’s just that it sounds like this 
 device that you got doesn’t actually offer as much Accessibility as what 
 we just lost. The thing I like the most about the Bluetooth instant pot 
 was that I could actually control it. I could change the time from the 
 default. I could tell what was going on. How much time was left etc. So, 
 the one you got sounds OK, except it smaller than the IP. And you still 
 have to do a cheat sheet. So I’m kind of bummed by the whole thing.

Thank you for this. My bike’s one of those magnetic resistance deals. There’s 
no back wheel and the front is encased in some sort of housing, but this gives 
me an idea of what to look for and know that at least Wahoo’s platform is

I got my self a wahoo fitness HR monitor
I can’t remember the model but it works great with the Wahoo fitness app on my 
phone or an iPod touch,

To ad to this I got a Wahoo cadiance and speed monitor which has three parts,

The main body with the sensors
Attaches to the main bike frame,
On the bottom bar of the back wheel support,
So it can pick up both the rear wheel spinning an the pedal going around,

There is a little rubber band thing with a sensor device in it that goes on the 
pedal arm,

And another little sensor that attaches to the spokes of the back wheel that 
then like the sensor on the pedal arm gets picked up by the main wahoo sensor 
that is on the bottom wheel arm 9bracket),

This uses Bluetooth 4 in my devices case to connect to the wahoo fitness app on 
my phone or ipod touch and picks up how fast the back when is spinning,
And also how fast you are pedalling.

These feed in to the app and together you can get a pretty good view of your 
workout data,

The app does take some getting use to and I would advise playing around with it 
to setup the appropriate workout for yourself,
And then once you have the hr monitor and caidance device,
You can pair those to your app.

Hope that helps.

Oh and the wahoo app is very accessible but full of a lot of stuff.

Cheers,

Subject: accessible accessories to make a dumb exercise bike a smart exercise 
bike

Hello list,
So as the subject line states, I’d like to make my “dumb” exercise bike 
smarter. I’ve poked around online and there appear to be lots of resources on 
this topic since I like a lot of other folks don’t’ feel like shelling out the 
big bucks for a peloton along with the subscription.
I’ve got a 15 year old Schwinn recumbent bike that is still holding strong and 
am not looking to upgrade as long as it’s still working. Even then, I think I’d 
be more inclined to buying a more traditional bike for when I next upgrade 
instead of something that’s Internet connected where with any sort of app or 
firmware update, it can become inaccessible just like that.
Anyway, getting to my question, has anyone tackled this dumb bike/smart bike 
project? Can they recommend any iOS accessible tools to get for measuring heart 
rate, speed, distance etc.? I’m not an Apple watch owner and have no desire to 
get one and would be perfectly fine with a stand-alone heart rate monitor. My 
understanding is that Wahoo fitness stuff is the way to go to get connected, 
but again and as always, what’s accessible for us? iOS app/service?
Thanks,
Cristobal

Re: Echo or Alexa Show

[Brad Snyder]

Glad to hear you got subscribed.
Beware, that list can be a little heavy on traffic sometimes, but I’m sure you 
will learn a lot.

You may also want to check out the Dot-2-Dot podcast.  Robin Christopherson 
does a nice job with this daily podcast, in which he features a different skill 
every day.

You can create a Rule to delete messages with certain words/character strings 
in the subject field.
You can also create a rule to delete messages from a specific sender’s address.
Both of these practices work very well.

 Since the Bluetooth model has no way of connecting to Wi-Fi, I failed to

Sadly, not that I'm aware of.
If they moved the list to groups.io, there would be for sure.

Re: Echo or Alexa Show

[Danny Keys]

Hi,
I had an echo show and I liked the what am I holding feature
However, I did have a problem with using voice view for selecting movies. The 
screen would just click and pop, and I was never able to find the icon for 
starting movies. My son said that when voice view was off, he was able to pick 
the icon and start a movie.
I did report this to the folks in the accessibility group at amazon.
If this problem ever gets corrected, I may reconsider another echo show.

RE: Supersense Feature Questions

[Richard Turner]

Good luck with the color identification.  The iPhone camera is not good at that 
with any app.
The issue is the wide variation in color reporting based on lighting.
The human eye can adjust for that, but even humans get thrown off because of 
lighting.  My wife is a quilter so I hear a lot about this, grin.

Re: Echo or Alexa Show

Brad, I was in countering some issues which I felt were related to the app on 
my phone. Some of the other questions I guess weren’t. But any rate I just hit 
on this link that you provided here to subscribe and it would not send. Not 
sure why.

RE: Smart cooker app does not work with iOS 14.5

[Johna Gravitt]

When you use the pressure function you set it to the time in pressure, and the 
screen will show more time than what you set because it takes into account the 
time it takes to build up to pressure and the time it takes to release steam, 
but time in pressure will be what you set it for.  
For example: if you set it for 20 minutes that's how long it will be under 
pressure cook, but the screen may show 30 minutes because it takes into account 
build up and steam release so you could use regular pressure cook recipes.

I looked on Amazon, and I found a review which for me, would make this thing a 
dealbreaker. You can’t use regular pressure cooker recipes with it. That’s what 
this guy said. The time should be the time at pressure, not the total time. All 
the pressure cooker recipes are based on time at pressure. So that is a 
showstopper, unless you want to limit yourself to whatever pre-programmed 
recipes are in their thing, or they might have a special recipe book which is 
probably not accessible. So now I’m really curious how in the heck you use this 
thing with real regular recipes?

Re: Echo or Alexa Show

[Brad Snyder]

You might find it more beneficial to direct your questions to a list devoted to 
using the Amazon Echo device, rather than a list for iPhone users.
Such a list exist, and you or anyone else can join it by sending a blank email 
to the following address:

echoing+subscr...@groups.io

I just looked up "Amazon Show" and became overloaded when reading about

that will require me to do anything in response to what shows on a screen.
   I was thinking I would get a second device for another room but 
one that could play movies, not just Prime, but Netflix too,and possibly Hulu 
somewhere down the line.
   Would that device be compatible with the Echo 4th generation I 
already have? Would I talk to it like I talk to my other device?
   I wonder if Amazon's  customers with disabilities could answer 
these questions and give me a honest good recommendation.
   I'll see if the podcasts someone already recommended will cover 
this, or maybe I will have to go to YouTube and let it squeeze hours out of the

RE: Smart cooker app does not work with iOS 14.5

[Laury, Shawnese (LEO)]

I had the blue tooth model and yes it was absolutely awesome. I now have the 
newer model and I like the device but the app that runs it is not like the 
previous smart cooker app. 

It is very difficult to operate. Most of the time I have my sighted family 
members to set it to avoid overcooking something. 

Maybe we need to reach out to the company and voice our concerns with the new 
app and ask that they make it more user friendly for those of us who are blind 
or visually impaired.

Johna,
I didn’t mean to devalue your message. It’s just that it sounds like this 
device that you got doesn’t actually offer as much Accessibility as what we 
just lost. The thing I like the most about the Bluetooth instant pot was that I 
could actually control it. I could change the time from the default. I could 
tell what was going on. How much time was left etc. So, the one you got sounds 
OK, except it smaller than the IP. And you still have to do a cheat sheet. So 
I’m kind of bummed by the whole thing.

RE: Smart cooker app does not work with iOS 14.5

[Johna Gravitt]

I understand. I realize it's a loss in some respects, but for me since I had 
such bad luck with my instant pot and this one at least tells me each function 
I'm using and without relying on a smart app that relies on updates to work, I 
feel this one will better meet my needs.

I just looked in the app, which opens on this phone, because it's not on the 
damned beta. I don't see anything in here that would let you write to the 
company or the developer. Unfortunately, I have not been able to pair this 
phone with my IP. Not sure why. But this is also my real phone, and I don't 
want it stuck on 14.4 forever. I put the beta on my old phone, because they 
say if you're going to do beta, you should do it on an older device. It was 
working great until the app didn't work anymore. It won't even open.

Re: Smart cooker app does not work with iOS 14.5

[Mary Otten]

Johna, 
I didn’t mean to devalue your message. It’s just that it sounds like this 
device that you got doesn’t actually offer as much Accessibility as what we 
just lost. The thing I like the most about the Bluetooth instant pot was that I 
could actually control it. I could change the time from the default. I could 
tell what was going on. How much time was left etc. So, the one you got sounds 
OK, except it smaller than the IP. And you still have to do a cheat sheet. So 
I’m kind of bummed by the whole thing.

[rick.alfaro]

So sorry to hear that. Very annoying as my Instant Pot Bluetooth cooker has 
been working just fine.

Well, bummer. I guess that means they’ve discarded it and we won’t see more 
updates. How annoying! Now I wish I had made a back up using a computer before 
I put the beta profile on my device. But I actually don’t know how to do that 
on windows, so I didn’t bother. Oh well.

Re: Smart cooker app does not work with iOS 14.5

[Penny Reeder]

I’m sorry to mislead. The app that i used when i first got my IP included a way 
to contact the company. When my IP stopped working, i did just that, and they 
replaced the pot. Now, i don’t see any way to contact the company. Do we know 
for sure that there’s no accessible app for using the WIFI model? I am bummed! 
I depend on my InstantPot for all kinds of things, especially dry beans and 
risotto. Penny

All Alexa devices will respond to the same commands.
I have the Sonos speakers with Alexa as well as the Amazon Alexa app on my

And, all Alexa devices can control your smart home devices.  We happen to have 
a thermostat that is controlled over Wi-Fi and I connected it to alexa, so now 
I can say to the speakers "Alexa, turn the thermostat to 71 degrees.
WE also got an Air Fryer that I can control with Alexa.
Pretty slick.

RE: Smart cooker app does not work with iOS 14.5

[Cristobal Muñoz]

I mean... I just downloaded it from the app store. Probably back when the WIFI 
model came out and it was uncertain whether the Bluetooth model was going to 
continue to be supported etc. I just did a search in the app store and it comes 
up as the second or third result with like a 2 star rating. Not exactly 
encouraging as a simple user experience. 
Again though, as the smart cooker app kept going strong, I didn't bother 
playing with it as at that time, the app was really bad with VO from what 
everyone was saying. Again, I could simply be misremembering, but I could swear 
folks talking about how the Bluetooth model could also connect to this app 
somehow. 
This unfortunately will probably be the experience for all devices that depend 
on some sort of connectivity or app. The pressure cooker itself will probably 
last for many years to come, but how does that help us if the accessibility 
feature we specifically bought it for breaks because it's deemed no longer 
worth maintaining. 
Maybe someone can poke around on the IP site to get a definitive answer on this 
or play with their Bluetooth model, but I'm unfortunately in the middle of my 
work day and have already farted around enough online and don't really have 
time to do it myself.

RE: Smart cooker app does not work with iOS 14.5

[Johna Gravitt]

When I called instant pot for advice on their models they specifically told me 
they weren't supporting the blue tooth model anymore but that's the only model 
they suggested I use since I'm blind.  I told them I had the smart wi fi one 
and they said that they had no plans on updating that app and the manual for 
instant pots actually says a person with a visual impairment shouldn’t use 
them.  
That upset me so I'm donating my instant pot to my daughter and using my new 
coocoo multy cooker.  I realize that there are still some accessibility issues 
with this one but in my opinion it's much improved over the instant pot and 
they don't have any issues with blind people using their products.

RE: Smart cooker app does not work with iOS 14.5

[Johna Gravitt]

The difference is all the menu options and buttons talk when you press them, it 
walks you through step by step what buttons to push, the device itself talks, 
no smart apps required.  The other major difference is that there's no pressure 
valve to worry about, it's all automatic.
Sorry, just trying to be helpful.

Re: Smart cooker app does not work with iOS 14.5

[Mary Otten]

Well, I have never heard of that company or that device. And I’m really not 
interested in making a cheat sheet. I could make a cheat sheet for this device, 
the only thing is the time and temperature settings don’t talk here either. So 
what’s the difference?
I never had any problem with this IP. It was totally usable independently with 
the iPhone.

Re: Smart cooker app does not work with iOS 14.5

[Mary Otten]

Do you have the newer model that works with Wi-Fi? I’m just wondering how you 
manage to get the Wi-Fi app if you don’t have that one.

RE: Smart cooker app does not work with iOS 14.5

[Cristobal Muñoz]

I just opened up the "newer" IP app Remote Control for Smart WiFI and it says 
you can control your WiFi model via your smartphone "or" Alexa, but it doesn't 
mention the Bluetooth model. I just recall coming across chatter on this and 
other lists about this topic, but admittedly, I didn't pay much attention to it 
since the smart cooker app worked perfectly fine for me.

RE: Smart cooker app does not work with iOS 14.5

[Johna Gravitt]

May I strongly suggest you look into the talking 8 in 1 multy cooker 5 QT from 
the company called Coocoo?  This is like an instapot, but it actually talks  
and walks you through steps of what you need to do to use it successfully and 
independently.  I just purchased one because I got so tired of my instapot and 
always needed some sort of assistance to use it.
I got mine on QVC but it's available on amazon as well.
There is one draw back though, the time and temp functions don't talk but the 
way around that is that you could have a cheat sheet of what the presets are 
for the functions and then you'd know how to adjust accordingly.  
This is also a lot better in my opinion than the instant pot because there's no 
pressure release valve that you need to adjust , this is all automatic and 
there's no need to double check that your pressure vent is open or closed.
If anyone's interested in more information I'll gladly share more.
Johna

I just looked in the app, which opens on this phone, because it’s not on the 
damned beta. I don’t see anything in here that would let you write to the 
company or the developer. Unfortunately, I have not been able to pair this 
phone with my IP. Not sure why. But this is also my real phone, and I don’t 
want it stuck on 14.4 forever. I put the beta on my old phone, because they say 
if you’re going to do beta, you should do it on an older device. It was working 
great until the app didn’t work anymore. It won’t even open.

I too have the Bluetooth model, but I thought you could also connect it to the

Re: Smart cooker app does not work with iOS 14.5

[Mary Otten]

Well, bummer. I guess that means they’ve discarded it and we won’t see more 
updates. How annoying! Now I wish I had made a back up using a computer before 
I put the beta profile on my device. But I actually don’t know how to do that 
on windows, so I didn’t bother. Oh well.

RE: accessible accessories to make a dumb exercise bike a smart exercise bike

[Cristobal Muñoz]

Hello Richard,

If only it were that simple. This CNet articles gives a quick breakdown on what 
one would need to make a “dumb” bike smarter: 
https://www.cnet.com/health/diy-peloton-bike-how-to-build-your-own-smart-cycle/

There are gadgets that measure power output and that can measure distance along 
with heart rate, but as always the question for us is what’s accessible. 

Simon’s response was helpful in letting me know that Wahoo’s platform and 
products are more or less accessible for example. 

One can go all out to try to replicate the Peloton experience, but I just 
really want access to my workout stats.

I would think that the phone in your pocket would track your steps if you 
enabled that in the health app, or a pedometer app. 

And, doesn't the Fitbit track heart rate if you do not want the Apple Watch?

Just some thoughts.

 

Richard

Hello list,

So as the subject line states, I’d like to make my “dumb” exercise bike 
smarter. I’ve poked around online and there appear to be lots of resources on 
this topic since I like a lot of other folks don’t’ feel like shelling out the 
big bucks for a peloton along with the subscription.

I’ve got a 15 year old Schwinn recumbent bike that is still holding strong and 
am not looking to upgrade as long as it’s still working. Even then, I think I’d 
be more inclined to buying a more traditional bike for when I next upgrade 
instead of something that’s Internet connected where with any sort of app or 
firmware update, it can become inaccessible just like that.

Anyway, getting to my question, has anyone tackled this dumb bike/smart bike 
project? Can they recommend any iOS accessible tools to get for measuring heart 
rate, speed, distance etc.? I’m not an Apple watch owner and have no desire to 
get one and would be perfectly fine with a stand-alone heart rate monitor. My 
understanding is that Wahoo fitness stuff is the way to go to get connected, 
but again and as always, what’s accessible for us? iOS app/service?

Thanks,

Cristobal

Re: Smart cooker app does not work with iOS 14.5

[Mary Otten]

I just looked in the app, which opens on this phone, because it’s not on the 
damned beta. I don’t see anything in here that would let you write to the 
company or the developer. Unfortunately, I have not been able to pair this 
phone with my IP. Not sure why. But this is also my real phone, and I don’t 
want it stuck on 14.4 forever. I put the beta on my old phone, because they say 
if you’re going to do beta, you should do it on an older device. It was working 
great until the app didn’t work anymore. It won’t even open.

Re: Smart cooker app does not work with iOS 14.5

[Mary Otten]

Thanks, Penny. I will look inside the app and see what I find. Maybe I’m just 
not looking right on the App Store. But when I searched for “smart cooker“, I 
did not find that app. Maybe they just said that nobody is using it anymore, 
since now they have the new fancy one that’s not as accessible. Very annoying. 
Getting cited help to do some thing I’ve been doing ever since I bought my IP 
is very frustrating. Every day, it feels like they’re taking some more 
independence away someway or another.
I didn’t know the new device worked with Alexa. But I’m not all that excited 
about having to have something depend on Alexa. I don’t find Alexa all that 
reliable. All the questions I asked that she does not know answers to, and now 
she’s taking two and three times just to tell me how much I have left on a 
timer. It’s ridiculous.

If you do figure out how to contact the company, please let me know. I also 
have this pot and love it! I will not be updating.

RE: accessible accessories to make a dumb exercise bike a smart exercise bike

[Cristobal Muñoz]

Thank you for this. My bike’s one of those magnetic resistance deals. There’s 
no back wheel and the front is encased in some sort of housing, but this gives 
me an idea of what to look for and know that at least Wahoo’s platform is 
accessible.

Cristobal

 

 

I got my self a wahoo fitness HR monitor 

I can’t remember the model but it works great with the Wahoo fitness app on my 
phone or an iPod touch,

 

To ad to this I got a Wahoo cadiance and speed monitor which has three parts,

 

The main body with the sensors 

Attaches to the main bike frame,

On the bottom bar of the back wheel support,

So it can pick up both the rear wheel spinning an the pedal going around,

 

There is a little rubber band thing with a sensor device in it that goes on the 
pedal arm,

 

And another little sensor that attaches to the spokes of the back wheel that 
then like the sensor on the pedal arm gets picked up by the main wahoo sensor 
that is on the bottom wheel arm 9bracket),

 

This uses Bluetooth 4 in my devices case to connect to the wahoo fitness app on 
my phone or ipod touch and picks up how fast the back when is spinning,

And also how fast you are pedalling.

 

These feed in to the app and together you can get a pretty good view of your 
workout data,

 

The app does take some getting use to and I would advise playing around with it 
to setup the appropriate workout for yourself,

And then once you have the hr monitor and caidance device,

You can pair those to your app.

 

Hope that helps.

 

Oh and the wahoo app is very accessible but full of a lot of stuff.

 

Cheers,

Subject: accessible accessories to make a dumb exercise bike a smart exercise 
bike

 

Hello list,

So as the subject line states, I’d like to make my “dumb” exercise bike 
smarter. I’ve poked around online and there appear to be lots of resources on 
this topic since I like a lot of other folks don’t’ feel like shelling out the 
big bucks for a peloton along with the subscription.

I’ve got a 15 year old Schwinn recumbent bike that is still holding strong and 
am not looking to upgrade as long as it’s still working. Even then, I think I’d 
be more inclined to buying a more traditional bike for when I next upgrade 
instead of something that’s Internet connected where with any sort of app or 
firmware update, it can become inaccessible just like that.

Anyway, getting to my question, has anyone tackled this dumb bike/smart bike 
project? Can they recommend any iOS accessible tools to get for measuring heart 
rate, speed, distance etc.? I’m not an Apple watch owner and have no desire to 
get one and would be perfectly fine with a stand-alone heart rate monitor. My 
understanding is that Wahoo fitness stuff is the way to go to get connected, 
but again and as always, what’s accessible for us? iOS app/service?

Thanks,

Cristobal

Smart cooker app does not work with iOS 14.5

[Mary Otten]

For anyone who has the Bluetooth instant pot, when the version of iOS that is 
not beta, 14.5, comes out, do not update. The app that makes that Bluetooth 
thing work does not work anymore. They need to update it. Since they don’t make 
this pot anymore, my guess is the update won’t be happening. I wish I knew 
where to write. My instant pot is now a paperweight thanks to the developers 
and to iOS.

Ok, so the trick will be to learn how to add books to my library! I'll 
get the hang of what the Echo can and can't do soon. How nice it was to simply 
tell Alexa this morning to play This Week in Virology, and or WHMP on Tune-In, 
or thename of other stations. The device clearly responds to specific commands 
so getting that language correct wil be necessary.
There are so many options for books, news, music, etc. I was thinking

You cannot search for audible books with the echo.  Just purchase the book with 
a credit through your computer would be the easiest, then once the book is

Re: free, 60-day Audible trial

[Joshua Hendrickson]

You cannot search for audible books with the echo.  Just purchase the
book with a credit through your computer would be the easiest, then
once the book is purchased, ask the echo to read your purchased book.

I don't think you can search for books through the Echo.
I may be wrong.
But, once you have a book in your library, you can ask it to play it.
Good luck,

RE: New Echo

[Richard Turner]

You do not need Voice Control.  You can just set up Hey Siri, or just hold the 
home button and ask Siri to do that.
Voice Control is really intended for people who cannot use their fingers 
effectively.
There may be some features you would like, but opening apps, etc., can be done 
more easily just with Siri.
HTH,

No, I cannot watch or listen to movies on the Echo. Someone kindly pointed out 
it would not play movies and I would need a device with a screen! Apple is not 
thinking people want to listen to movies not look at them with their eyes! I 
amnew to this which is why I was imagining the device could do all kinds of 
things that it was not designed to do! For instance, I thought I could ask 
Alexa to open anapp on my phone, such as BARD, butno that is not it's job. I 
could however set up Voice Control on my phone and then use Hey Siri to do that 
withoutmy having to touch the phone. Now you see I'm  getting into having too 
many options territory,  and to sort it all out, takes time and energy, and I'm 
already frazzled from spending a day with the Echo. I did get it to play a Greg 
Brown mix, and a local radio program,  and podcast I like from today, and it is 
reading my new mail, and I am sending  my brother's Echo messages which I do as 
recordings, and I pulled up an obscure Ice Cube song and played it with no 
problem at all with  the Echo finding it.
I can say that voice over is not reading everything in the app unless the 
instructions I am getting from several different places are incorrect. For 
example the first step to get to a specific place was tohit on a "menu" button 
at thetop left of the AlexaApp. There is no spoken "menu" button that I can 
find on the opening page of the app. I think I had the Home Tab selected and 
tried another Tab to see if one would appear. No buttons or links in the roter 
appear when I am on any given page I've been on within the Alexa app so far. 
Does this mean that much of the app is not accessible?
I need to give this a rest and get on with the rest of my day!

RE: New Echo

[deidreandlouise]

Patti

No, I cannot watch or listen to movies on the Echo. Someone kindly pointed out 
it would not play movies and I would need a device with a screen! Apple is not 
thinking people want to listen to movies not look at them with their eyes! I 
amnew to this which is why I was imagining the device could do all kinds of 
things that it was not designed to do! For instance, I thought I could ask 
Alexa to open anapp on my phone, such as BARD, butno that is not it's job. I 
could however set up Voice Control on my phone and then use Hey Siri to do that 
withoutmy having to touch the phone. Now you see I'm  getting into having too 
many options territory,  and to sort it all out, takes time and energy, and I'm 
already frazzled from spending a day with the Echo. I did get it to play a Greg 
Brown mix, and a local radio program,  and podcast I like from today, and it is 
reading my new mail, and I am sending  my brother's Echo messages which I do as 
recordings, and I pulled up an obscure Ice Cube song and played it with no 
problem at all with  the Echo finding it. 

I can say that voice over is not reading everything in the app unless the 
instructions I am getting from several different places are incorrect. For 
example the first step to get to a specific place was tohit on a "menu" button 
at thetop left of the AlexaApp. There is no spoken "menu" button that I can 
find on the opening page of the app. I think I had the Home Tab selected and 
tried another Tab to see if one would appear. No buttons or links in the roter 
appear when I am on any given page I've been on within the Alexa app so far. 
Does this mean that much of the app is not accessible?

I need to give this a rest and get on with the rest of my day!

I believe what I have is an echo fourth generation. It’s about the size of a 
cantaloupe. No it does not have a screen. Maybe I will get a little one with a 
tiny screen or the smaller screen so that I can just watch movies without 
having to touch my phone. Thanks for cluing me into what was should’ve been 
obvious. Anyway I’m playing around with this looking at commands seeing I still 
have a lot of work to do to streamline it’s recognizing the specific podcast 
and things like that that I want to play. This morning it’s doing a pretty good 
job of doing it, Meaning I’m getting the syntax down that Alexa is best at 
recognizing. I meant to write listen to movies not watch since I wouldn’t be 
able to see a thing on any screen.

The dot to dot podcast is a great one to listen to. It[s demos of various echo 
skills. Also for more in-depth demos, the echo show podcast is good. It would 
help us if we new what kind of Echo you have. As far as enabling video skills, 
that is limited to echos with screens, the echo show and it’s  variants, and 
the echo spot. The echo show comes in five, eight, and ten inch sizes. The only 
echo you can watch Amazon is the echo show. To enable some skills, go to the

also enable skills by voice if you know the skill name.

Hello all,

Someone gave me a gift of a new Echo. Some basic set up has been done today. 
I've read some helpful info from emails Amazon keeps sending me and I've been 
on the Amazon site which gives a list of things to look into. Some of what I am 
told to do isn't fool proof, perhaps due to human error.

   I cant seem to get at the place having to do with enabling video 
such as Prime Video or Netflix. I've got both Apps on the phone and naively 
thought I could use Alexa to activate those apps. It doesn't seem to work that 
way! I followed instructions from a hard file as well as where Alexa tole me to 
look, that were supposed to get me to TV and Movies under Skills and Games, I 
think, but I never got there. 

Under the section in settings for Communication, I did check off various music 
services and podcasts and Tune In stations I listen to and Alexa was able to 
find those. I can't however find the place to do that with video, TV and/or 
movies I am subscribed to.

You may want to check out newspapers.com.
I have not tried it with VoiceOver, but when my wife was doing some genealogy 
research she used it a lot.  She is sighted, but I was able to access some with 
my computer.
I'm pasting a link to the list of locations which include England, Ireland, 
Scottland, etc.
It is a subscription but it has a 7 day free trial.

RE: ringtones question

[Richard Turner]

If you are using a Windows computer, GoldWave can do this and you do not have 
to change the file extension first.
Plus, Goldwave has a batch process so you could convert a bunch of files at 
once to mp3.
There are other programs and online services that can do this.

Hello list,
Does anybody know of a 1980s music game for the echo which is free? I found a 
game that plays part of a song, and the game player says the name of the song. 
That is what I am trying to find again. Currently, the only game I can find 
does not play music, but rather askes trivia questions. Thanks and have a nice
