It comes on your iPhone by default. I have it on my iPhone, and I never had to 
install it. I did find the following article, which does have a suggestion to 
reinstall your Weather app from the App Store, so if you can’t find it on your 
phone at all, you may need to reinstall it from the App Store. The article with 
more information is at How to Fix iPhone Weather App Not Working? Here Are

I followed your suggestion, but stil can’t find it.  I had the impression that 
it was automatically on the iPhone as a native app.  Is that right, or do I 
need to go to the app store to get it.  If the latter, what is it’s official

One way to get to it is to do a three finger swipe right from the last home 
screen. This will bring up the app library. There’s a search box at the top of 
the screen and flicking up with three fingers will give you an alphabetized 
list.

hi,

 

Apple purchased Dark Sky years ago. the built-in iOS weather app got a major 
update with iOS thirteen, in which it ganed much better functionality. it works 
well. I have another weather app, Weathergods, which works well. it has savare 
storm threats, andf the neet thing about it is it has the ability for you to 
hear the weather. the sounds it has have a tutorial to know what they all mean. 
it works well with VoiceOver, and the developer is extreamly responsive to 
requests posted on AppleVis  for VoiceOver feedback and suggestions. 
WeatherOffice is also quire good. I don’t use it much, but i bought it to test 
it out, and it is good.

I use the podcasts app from apple to play my podcasts on my iPhone 13 mini.  
Since the latest update of the iPhone, I can no longer jump from chapter to

RE: HELP NEEDED

[Dennis Long]

Nope here is what the issue is.  If I have a model that is the k10 and the k21. 
 You can’t have one of each paired.  I confirmed this by pairing 2 k10 c 
headsets they paired and worked fine.  As soon as I removed them the k21 paired 
fine.  It wouldn’t show up when the two k10c headsets were paired to the phone.

I assume you know exactly how to put the headset in pairing mode?

If you are certain it is in pairing mode and the iPhone doesn't see it, maybe 
try to remove the first headset which is already paired and then see if the 
other one will pair.

You could also try to pair it to a different device in order to test it and 
make sure it is not defective, of course this will only work I fyou have 
another device such as an old iPhone, an iPad or an Apple Watch.

Re: Reading digital displays on ovens and thermostats

[Arnold Schmidt]

I have forgotten the technical details of it now, but a service with a human 
reading the information may be the best bet, for now. There is something about 
the light emited by digital displays that a human can read with little or no 
problem, but technology can not read very well, if at all. I hope it will get 
better in the future. The best solution is to have someody with whom you can 
face time to read it, services like Be My Eyes and Aira being a good solution, 
too.
