Mark,  thank you very much for the details. Your instructions work perfectly, 
except that you do not refer to having the screen locked after starting the 
Speak Screen process. Yes, if the screen remains unlocked, the speak. Screen

Re: With VoiceOver enabled, Can anyone locate the Speech Screen controller in iOS 17.2?

2023-12-28 Thread 'Harry Bell' via VIPhone
Whenever i start Speak Screen, for example reading a Kindle book on iPhone 15 
pro or iPad pro M2,  it always stops at the end of the page,  refusing to turn 
the page. This has been my experience for a long time.  Any suggestions about 
how to fix it? 
Thanks

Re: Haptic time

One finger double tap has worked for me for about a year,  but I do recall that 
on my previous Series 7 watch I had to do several resets until it started 
working properly!  It really should not be left in this precarious state by 
Apple!

So far, nothing as far as VoiceOver accessibility has broken or at least not that I’ve noticed. Of the main social media platforms, it slowly became one of the more accessible ones out there. Terrible that the accessibility team was let go along with a lot of other people, but the work they did to make Twitter very accessible is still there. Spring for the most part is still working. I’ve noticed that I can’t reply or retweet, but it’s easy enough to access the option to view a particular tweet in the native Twitter app and do whatever I want with that tweet from there. Once Spring’s gone, I guess I’ll have to see how I get along with the actual twitter appt itself. I mean, Mastodon’s “ok,” but it’s like night and day as far as engagement and level of information. Who knows, Musk may very well run twitter into bankruptcy as he’s hinted at already and sell it off to whoever and it’ll end up under new management and structure where we’ll be able to go through this all over again. It’s used by  so many. Not just people, but Governments, organizations and so on, it’s hard to see some other platform supplant or replicate what it does any time soon.There will likely be a Twitter 3.0 or 4.0, but who knows what that’ll look like or who will run it. Might as well just go with the flow for now.

Yes, Apple often does things the way they think people should do them, they even have released devices which didn't really exist because they felt that is what people should use, iPhone and iPad are examples of that.However, Apple is a public company and they are held accountable by their shareholders whereas Twitter is now Elon Musk's privately owned company and as such he really can do what he wants. Also Apple has made a clear commitment to accessibility a long time ago now (it started in 2009 with Voiceover being on every product) and I don't think currently Elon Musk has any thoughts for "minor" annoyances like accessibility. Of course I could be wrong and his vision for Twittter might be something nobody really can imagine now and maybe fantastic accessibility is part of it, we'll just have to wait and see.Whether anybody continues to use Twitter as it is now or not is entirely up to them, nobody who happens to disagree with what he is doing has the right to tell people to get off Twitter and delete their accounts.

transcribed kept changing in a very unstable and confusing way. At first there 
were perhaps 4 lines of text, then perhaps 12 lines, then suddenly back to 4 
lines, tgen 8 lines, then back to 4 lines - all without any audible feedback. 
There was an “Insert Text” button on the pop-up at the bottom of the screen 
which i had to double tap at a key moment when i guessed the maximum amount of 
text had been detected - but quickly, before the text in the text edit field 
disappeared again! I might stick to using Voice Dream Scanner…

Re: What Does 'Confirm with Side-Button' Mean?

2022-11-10 Thread 'Harry Bell' via VIPhone
Confirm with side button is an instruction for you to rapidly double-click the 
power button on the right-hand side of the iPhone. This triggers Face ID and 
confirms you want the app!

Dictation and a Learner’s Braille may lead to surprises in my messages…

These affiliate partnerships do not influence our editorial content. Apple has reached a settlement with Kosta Eleftheriou, a developer who sued the company over scams in the App Store and copycat keyboards. Eleftheriou is known for highlighting fake reviews on the App Store, as well as the prevalence of scam apps. He developed FlickType, an Apple Watch keyboard. He found an abundance of apps that copied FlickType, with these competitors even going so far as to steal his promo videos. Eleftheriou expressed his frustration with the App Store review team over the apps' copied-and-pasted reviews with five-star ratings. He sued Apple in 2021 after Apple released the Apple Watch Series 7. Thanks to the device's larger screen, the company released a full keyboard for it with swiping capabilities. Apple rejected FlickType numerous times in the past but didn't remove the copycat apps, and Eleftheriou said he lost revenue as a result. Eleftheriou said he was in talks with Apple over a potential acquisition, and filed the lawsuit when he found the Apple Watch Series 7 keyboard similar to FlickType. The suit further alleged that Apple does little to police the App Store because it benefits from developers pushing high-priced subscriptions onto users. According to a report on Thursday, Apple has settled the lawsuit with Eleftheriou. A request for dismissal of the lawsuit was filed on July 21, 2022 after Apple and Kpaw, Inc, Eleftheriou's company, finalized an agreement. The terms of the settlement aren't clear. Users can report scam apps in the App Store after Apple brought back a tool called "Report a Problem" in 2021. It's listed in the Information section, alongside details such as age rating, category, and more.https://appleinsider.com/articles/22/09/01/apple-settles-lawsuit-with-developer-over-app-store-scam-apps?utm_medium=rss      David Goldfield Assistive Technology Specialist Feel free to visit my Web siteWWW.DavidGoldfield.info

Re: Blind and quadriplegic

Yes! Use EarPods and see  Richard Turner’s guide http://www.turner42.com/

This all sounded OK to my ears, even though it may not look so to the eyes of 
others.

Re: airpods pro not working

2022-06-18 Thread 'Harry Bell' via VIPhone
Ive had this same problem for years, on and off! I try turning Bluetooth off 
and on again and if that doesn’t work, go to Bluetooth in Settings, tap on 
AirPods Pro and then select Forget This Device. Reboot iPhone.  Then pair 
again. It works for a while - and tgen the connectivity problems start again. 
And round you go!

Re: Apple Music and my own music library troubles

2022-05-10 Thread 'Harry Bell' via VIPhone
I’m sure, oike richard, that it used to be possible to show my music rather 
than just Apple Music. I have iTunes Match as well as an Apple Music 
subscription. But I’ve just checked on iPhone and iPad and I cannot find any 
way to change what is displayed other than turning off using Apple Music in 
settings! Do ring Apple Accessibility and let us all know.

 Hi all,
 
 I’m new to Apple Music, on a 6 month trial. I’ve noticed my playlists are 
 messed up. Playlists I have had for several years have changed. There 
 should be over a hundred songs in a particular smart playlist and now 
 there are four.
 
 I can only guess that Apple music has changed something. Is there a way I 
 can change it back, or stop it from doing this in the future? I am a heavy 
 playlist/smart playlist user.
 
 So far, everything is remaining the usual way it should be on my Mac. I’m 
 seeing these changes on my iPhone.
 
 Thanks,
 Traci

In his most recent podcast Jonathan Mosen rated very highly! The developer does

Magic tap dictation sound on iPhone?

2022-03-29 Thread 'Harry Bell' via VIPhone
I have just noticed that in iOS 15, the two finger double tap to start and stop 
dictation only has a haptic buzz on my iPhone whereas on my iPad Pro it still 
has a ping sound. Did the ping sound on the iPhone get replaced by a haptic 
engine at some point when starting and stopping dictation?
Thanks
Harry

Re: Orbit Writer

2022-03-02 Thread 'Harry Bell' via VIPhone
The Hable One is brilliant for unlocking and using my iPhone while it is still 
in a zipped pocket under my coat. The typing style is exactly like Braille 
Screen Input which I find more tiring. And nothing beats the Orbit Writer’s 
navigation wheel plus Select button, which replaces swiping and tapping in such 
an uncomplicated way!

Re: Using iPhone while in pocket via Hable One!

Both are Braille devices but Hable is paired through Bluetooth settings. Orbit 
needs a flat surface and cannot itself unlock iPhone in your pocket.

Using iPhone while in pocket via Hable One!

2022-01-16 Thread 'Harry Bell' via VIPhone
I have just got a Hable One Braille keyboard which  means I can now leave my 
iPhone zipped up in my jacket pocket while I’m out and about. One great feature 
is that it can wake and unlock the iPhone without delving through coats and 
zips. It has several proprietary shortcuts for text editing or interaction 
commands and for evoking Siri - otherwise it is a usual pocket-sized Braille 
keyboard. It is laid out like a Braille Screen Input keyboard with dots 7 and 8 
but no Space bar - for commands, you mostly just long press the keys instead of 
adding in the space. I’ve used it for a couple of days and for the out and 
about or quick use scenario it is very good. I prefer the Orbit Writer for 
writing longer chunks of text and its Perkins layout is less tiring for that 
task. Expensive but effective and not many keyboards can wake up and unlock 
your iPhone and control all its functions while in your pocket!

On my iPhone 13 pro with iOS 15.1 I have set up an activity so that the Voice

FaceTime with friends problem with link on Windows PC or android phone

2021-10-31 Thread 'Harry Bell' via VIPhone
I am going to host a Group FaceTime call this week for my local blind society 
for the first time , I’m running iOS 15.1 on my iPhone 13 pro and I generated a 
link for a FaceTime call as an experiment. I can tap on the link I have emailed 
to my various devices and I  can open it to join the FaceTime call on other 
Apple devices but when I try to click on the link on my windows 10 PC or on my 
pixel 4a phone running android 12 and both android device and Windows fully 
up-to-date, both devices show a message saying that either the network is 
unavailable or it’s taking unexpectedly long to connect and therefore has a 
link saying cancel. All devices are on the same fast Wi-Fi. I seem to be to be 
doing everything right according to the instructions because I can open the 
link on my Apple devices. Does anybody have any suggestions about how to get 
Windows or android devices  on board with a FaceTime call from the link which 
Facetime now generates?
Thanks
Harry

Voice Dream Writer odd invisible feature?

When I open VDR and use dots 1-2-3 chord on Orbit Writer expecting to land on 
file manager, instead I land on an invisible (according to my sighted wife) row 
of buttons which VoiceOver describes as about choosing Lowest Level: headings, 
paragraph, sentence (selected) or edit. Only after moving right past these 
invisible options each time can I get to what I normally want - file manager or 
add new document. Is it possible to get rid of this new feature or does it 
serve some essential purpose?

I’m glad you got rid of the comma problem - but what’s with all the random 
symbols in your email? Is that what resetting did to you?

VoiceOver verbosity settings - punctuation

2021-10-02 Thread 'Harry Bell' via VIPhone
How can I get VoiceOver to announce a comma, full stop, exclamation or question 
mark while typing with my Orbit Writer Braille keyboard? If I set verbosity 
punctuation to “some”, none of them are voiced. If I set verbosity to “all”, 
VoiceOver announces commas all over the place when navigating e.g. when focus 
in my list of emails falls on one from Apple TV, VoiceOver says  “unread comma 
Apple TV comma”

Re: Fix for the issue with Voiceover not saying the name of some apps in the App Switcher

2021-09-28 Thread 'Harry Bell' via VIPhone
An alternative is just to tap the screen when VoiceOver merely says "Active", 
because then VoiceOver does speak the name of the app.

Re: VoiceOver Braille editing bug in iOS 15?

2021-09-26 Thread 'Harry Bell' via VIPhone
Thank you for trying this out, Richard! Now that I have restarted my phone 
several times I realise that the problem of mixing or repeating words seems to 
have disappeared. I think what continues to spook me a bit is what VoiceOver is 
echoing, which is not what I expect to be echoed.

I am using Brailliant BI 40 X braille display paired with my iPhone 13 pro and 
VoiceOver is set to voice characters and words and some punctuation. Whilst I 
am typing in for example email VoiceOver echoes very confusing random letters 
or echoes a word away before the letter I have just typed. I also keep finding 
that VoiceOver fails consistently to voice spaces and a lot of punctuation I 
have just typed. I tried setting punctuation in verbosity to all that then 
VoiceOver started reading out the most bizarre bits of punctuation on the 
screen is where there was no punctuation and when I went back to some 
punctuation in verbosity VoiceOver continued to voice call punctuation until I 
restarted the phone. Very complex! 
I am a real beginner with Braille still so I do have speech to help reassure me 
about what I am typing so strange behaviour with VoiceOver really throws me! 
Regards
Harry

With some hearing loss, I’ve been struggling for a while to work out if the key

VoiceOver Braille editing bug in iOS 15?

2021-09-22 Thread 'Harry Bell' via VIPhone
Using iPhone 12 running VoiceOver and public release of iOS 15 and a Brailliant 
Bi 40 X. 
Open Notes app and create new note. 
Type: “they can do this”. 
Move the cursor to just in front of word “do”. 
Type “really” followed by a space. Then type two random letters and delete 
them. 
Then type “now”. 
Examine the sentence to see chaos!
See screen recording.

Lobbying Apple about FlickType

2021-08-21 Thread 'Harry Bell' via VIPhone
Jonathan Mosen is urging as many of us as possible to email Apple’s Phil 
Schiller schil...@apple.com to urge him to intervene personally to sort out the 
problems leading to the developer of FlickType withdrawing his app after his 
updates were rejected for mystifying reasons.

keychain remember your password. Then you are covered.

Re: Absolutely horrendous iPhone SE Second Generation Problem

2021-05-14 Thread 'Harry Bell' via VIPhone

Re: Finding my place in a document?

2021-04-26 Thread 'Harry Bell' via VIPhone
Yes, I could type in && at the point where I where I finish reading and do a 
search for that when I reopen the document, delete the symbols and do that 
every time. That does work but is a bit convoluted. An app which remembers your 
place would be great, if such a thing exists?
Thanks

Finding my place in a document?

In which iOS app can I reliably go back and reopen a document such that 
VoiceOver will start reading from the same place I left off last time I 
finished reading it? I have several .txt files I want to read through quite 
slowly. Pages is useless for this!

Single Bluetooth earpiece?

I have a Plantronics Voyager Edge and wanted to recommend it to a friend - but 
it is no longer available on Amazon in the UK. Is there an alternative single 
earpiece which sits on the ear but does not go into the ear canal? I’ve had too 
many ear infections in the past.

Orbit Writer inserting spaces etc

2021-04-22 Thread 'Harry Bell' via VIPhone
On my iPhone SE 2020 running iOS 14.4.2 I notice that when using the notes app 
if I wish to insert a space when typing with the Orbit writer I need to tap the 
space bar twice in order for it to insert the space. I also have to tap dots 
seven or eight twice if I wish to delete a letter or insert a new line break. 
Is this a known bug?
Thanks

Thanks, richard! I seem to have solved the issue by importing the VDR .txt

working to read the files on the Focus Blue!

Voice Dream Reader exporting text?

2021-04-18 Thread 'Harry Bell' via VIPhone
I want to get files from Voice Dream Reader in plain text format so that I can 
put them on the micro SD card which I can then insert into my new Focus Blue 14 
5th generation. If I open a VDR file, double tap on Document and select all 
text, will the exported .txt file be UTF-8 formatted plain text which the Focus 
guide insists is the only acceptable plain text format for Scratchpad?

iOS 14 strange noise

2021-04-09 Thread 'Harry Bell' via VIPhone
Can you help track down this strange noise? It happens frequently on my iPhone 
SE 2020 running latest iOS and it seems tgat after VoiceOver reads something it 
is followed by a brief staccato sound. I vaguely remember people complaining 
about this before when iOS 14 came out and I have obviously turned whatever 
setting back on. Any ideas?
Thanks
Harry

Supersense app opened and displayed the scanned text correctly. I double tap on 
Share in order to share tgat text but tge Supersense app immediately crashed. I 
tried a couple of times on the iPad Pro but same problem each time. I then did 
the same on iPhone SE and had no problem. 
Can anyone confirm?

VoiceOver gesture in FaceTime?

2021-01-27 Thread 'Harry Bell' via VIPhone
When on a FaceTime call on my iphone SE,  double tapping on the screen will 
bring up the controls. Richard sent me an article which describes how, if 
sighted, on the control panel you can go down that menu and add another person 
to the FaceTime call. But when you first double tap on the screen during your 
FaceTime call, only the top controls are visible to the eye or to voice-over. 
If I turn VoiceOver off. It is just possible to push the control panel up to 
reveal the list of options and then turn VoiceOver on again. Surely there must 
be a VoiceOver gesture to move the control panel up to reveal these options? 
Swiping right on the initial four options does not reach those other options 
nor does a three finger swipe up. Any ideas?
Thanks
Harry
