Re: I just got a new i phone 14 and have one questiona bout one of the buttons on the case.

2023-11-30 Thread joseph hudson
Hi Mich, it might look around. But it's actually more of a square. It's a 
rocker, mute switch. So if you turn it towards the back of the phone, it's 
muted, if you turn it towards the front of the phone it's unmute it

Well, I guess unless we can figure out how to join the beta, hopefully it stays

I agree, I'm always apprehensive when an application "improves" their

Sadly we really have no choice but to wait until 12/14. My advice is to wait to 
do the update on all of your devices until we know how the update will work. My 
fingers are crossed that it will be fine as SiriusXm is my main source of 
radio. Also don't forget you can use SiriusXm on both google and alexa speakers.

hello Friends,

I also received this notice about siriusXM and wonder how their newly updated 
APP will affect those of us who enjoy programs like MetOpera Radio. The problem 
we all face here is that there's no one at SiriusXM we can contact directly who 
would even care how their updates might change things permanently, and not in 
our favor. I reckon we'll all just live in suspense until December 14th. Let's 
all hope we can still have our programming preferences just as  we do now.

2023-11-30 Thread Michael Feir
That has to be the mute and unmute switch. Try moving it up or down if it
won't press. I've had cases that made it a knob you turn. However, I've
never encountered a case that made it a button to press.

You didn't say exactly what kind of case. But that is where the mute switch is 
located. On iPhone 15's that is a button. On all previous models, it is a 
switch/lever that when pushed jtoward the back, mutes the tones, and when push 
toward the screen unmutes.

RE: Power Bank Etc. For iPhone and Storms

2023-11-30 Thread James Bentley
If possible, purchase 2 power banks and charge both fully.

 

Then, when the first goes dead, plug it in to charge and you still have a fully 
charged power bank ready to go.  Then, just keep alternating the power banks 
and you will always have plenty of reserve power.

Not directly. Since it can be left plugged in, it should be fully charged when 
needed. However, it would be possible to use an app like Be My Eyes to ask a 
sighted person to look through your phone's camera at the power bank and find 
out that way.

Re: Power Bank Etc. For iPhone and Storms

2023-11-30 Thread Traci Duncan
Hello, I’m a little delayed in this thread, but I have a question.

With the Anker GAN Prime, is there a way to tell how much battery is left in 
the power bank?

Thanks,
Traci

I’ve had a Sensi model st55 for 2 years now.Be sure you get this cheaper

heat or air conditioning and changing the temperature and more.  It also works 
with Alexa and there is an app for I Phone and I think, Android.
Note, the more expensive model is flat screen only.  No buttons.  The buttons 
are important for a blind person to use the thermostat in case your internet 
goes down.

Ok folks, wondering what experiences everyone has had with their home 
thermostats?
I've have had the Ecobee  for the past two years and it continually loses our 
Wifi network.  The solution to get it going again requires somebody with sight, 
which I don't have.
I'm resigned to replacing it and would like to hear your experiences with other 
brands where you have been able to operate confidently with voice assist?

Best Regards

heat or air conditioning and changing the temperature and more.  It also works 
with Alexa and there is an app for I Phone and I think, Android.
Note, the more expensive model is flat screen only.  No buttons.  The buttons 
are important for a blind person to use the thermostat in case your internet 
goes down.

The $80.00, thermostat with buttons is model ST55.  Here is an Amazon link.

Ok folks, wondering what experiences everyone has had with their home 
thermostats?
I've have had the Ecobee  for the past two years and it continually loses our 
Wifi network.  The solution to get it going again requires somebody with sight, 
which I don't have.
I'm resigned to replacing it and would like to hear your experiences with other 
brands where you have been able to operate confidently with voice assist?

Best Regards

Reg Sullivan
