RE: Artiles Accessible

2022-03-26 Thread R Van Lant
Dulce,
Here is an article from Access World that may answer your questions.   I was 
about to buy Air Tags, but since my phone is not new enough to support the 
feature of showing Air Tag location on a map, I may go with the Tiles.

We find grubhub the most accessible. It works pretty well accept when it 
doesn’t show you items you’ve selected as in vegetable sides for a dinner.

Re: door dash app questions

2022-03-26 Thread Andy Baracco
These days that seems to be about the only thing you can do with the app.  It 
offers you the opportunity to reorder things you ordered before.  the last few 
things you ordered are listed at the beginning of the menu choices, and there 
is an orders tab at the bottom where you can review previous orders and you are 
given the option to reorder.

Re: How to change the location in the weather widget on my iPad

2022-03-26 Thread Jennie Facer
HI Mary,

If you double tap on that weather widget, it will take you to Safari. Here, you 
can change the location. There is a search field that asks you for your city or 
zip code, and you can change it from there. You may also be asked if you want 
the weather widget to allow your location status. Hope this helps.

Hi,

Hi,

Yes you can use the app to speak to someone outside though sometimes it takes a 
few more seconds than I'd like to open the app and get to the right button. But 
I also wanted to mention that if you had an Amazon Echo you can use newer 
models to say wake word answer front door or wherever you have your bell set up 
and speak through it as well. Some find this method quicker if at home. When 
done you can say wake word end call and there you are.

I hope that helps.

Take good care.

Re: questions regarding subscriptions for two weather apps, Weather Gods and The Weather Channel

2022-03-26 Thread Robin Frost

Hi Vicky,

I think as you do I appreciate the time developers put into these apps 
and I realize that not everything worth having is free thus I have no 
problem supporting their efforts to either get multiple types of alerts 
in Weather Gods or to go ad free in The Weather Channel app. Of course 
this doesn't apply to anyone beyond myself I'm just stating that I'm 
willing to do so and the reasons why therein.


Take good care.

*Subject:* questions regarding subscriptions for two weather
apps, Weather Gods and The Weather Channel

First, if memory serves, I purchased Weather Gods a few years ago
and thus was grandfathered into things that are subscription
based now. But I’m still a little confused when I look around in
my account and look at all the various subscriptions and
features. Best I can tell from looking around, we who are
grandfathered into having the features for free have the Premium
plan as the $2.99 monthly and the $29.99 yearly plans both appear
to be grayed out for purchase. However, it looks like the
extended forecast is available for us to purchase but for $1.49
monthly and no yearly plan. Does this look right to those of you
who are also on this older plan? If this were an additional
subscription, although I would prefer a yearly plan, I was kind
of thinking of getting the subscription rather than putting money
in the Tip Jar, although I guess one could do both.

Second, when I look at the subscription choices for The Weather
Channel in my account on the app store, I see Premium Pro Monthly
for $4.99, Premium Pro Annual $19.99, Premium Pro Annual $29.99,
The Weather Channel Premium one month $.99, The Weather Channel
Premium one year $9.99. Does anyone know what’s actually offered
with each of these subscriptions? I first used the few days trial
offered over a year ago, and then I subscribed to the $29.99
version a couple of months ago. I wonder if maybe some of these
options were previously offered but not anymore? Oh, I did also
check the subscription info from pressing enter on my Apple ID in
settings and going to subscriptions that way, and while they were
shown in a slightly different order, the same options were there.

 Hi,
 
 For some reason, I can't get the Orbt writer to tell me what I am

 can't track down a setting that would change this though. I will say 
 though that if you're using contracted braille then the Orbit Writer 
 will get confused when you start backspacing. You can avoid this by 
 using uncontracted braille or switching to the on screen keyboard to 
 do your deleting.

 another misconception I'd like to clear up is that you can connect 
 your Orbit Writer through the braille support in VoiceOver, but you 
 can also connect it as a keyboard through the Bluetooth settings. I 
 don't do this myself, but I know some expressed a concern about 
 having to go through the VoiceOver settings to pair the Orbit Writer.
 Obvoiusly, if you skip VoiceOver then you'll be losing out on 
 functionality you only get through VoiceOver.

RE: Orbit Writer

2022-03-26 Thread terrieter
Hi Brandon,
My neighbor put the lanyard on for me. I'm sorry, but I don't know how he did 
it. I have seen the two little holes on other small cases that say they can 
have a lanyard attached and I don't know how this process works. I wish I could 
be of help.
Best,
Terrie

I really like my Hable One.  I'm almost tempted to get an orbit writer just to 
compare the 2 braille bluetooth keyboards.  However, if I get an orbit writer 
and don't like it I don't want to have spent $100 and not be able to get my 
money back.  I also have my input set to contracted braille and words for my 
typing.  It works quite well.

Hi Everyone,
Does the ring Doorbell app allow you to speak to the person outside the door so 
that you can find out who it is before you open the door? Just wanted to make 
sure before I bought one.
Thanks very much.

Re: Orbit Writer

2022-03-26 Thread Brandon Olivares
I just wanted to reply to this because I just got the Orbit Writer and have
been playing around with the settings.

These are the options that worked best for me:

Braille input: contracted (automatically translate)
Typing feedback: words

I find it gets way less confused when I have it on words. Backspace doesn't
tell me every character, but if I backspace through an entire word, it'll
tell me the word I just deleted, so it works fine for me.

It now works very reliably and I have not had any issues with it.

My wife is ambivalent about it so far, but I like it personally.
