Carolyn,

Open the Settings app, swipe down to Phone & tap to open, swipe to Caller ID & 
tap to open. Confirm that Caller ID is toggled On.

Re: Seven Little words.

2024-04-24 Thread Donna Casteen

If Direct Touch is actually on, when the 7 Little Words app is opened voiceover 
will speak "Direct Touch On." Voiceover will not say anything just by touching 
the screen. If Direct Touch is Not turned on there will not be any response 
from voiceoverwhen touching, tapping or swiping.

Re: Seven Little words.

2024-04-17 Thread Donna Casteen

Alex,The game 7 Little Words is accessible. My thought is, the gestures to play the game is different from the voiceover gestures. A 3 finger flick switches from words & characters. A 2 finger swipe from left to right reads the clues by letter or word. Swiping in the opposite direction the clues will be spelled/spoken in reverse. A 1 finger swipe left to right moves down by line. Swiping right to left moves up by line. A 1 finger swipe down jumps from the clues section to the letter tiles section & a 1 finger swipe up moves from the letter tiles to the clues section. I hope these instructions helps you to be able to play. The game structure was changed 2+ years ago because coding the game for Android is easier than APple, So the game developer just has to do a minor tweak in order for the game to work on the Apple platform & voiceover users making use of the Direct Touch feature.Donna     Alison, I tried it, and it’s horrible, completely inaccessible in my view!On 16 Apr 2024, at 23:54, CJ & AA MAY  wrote:That would be good as I too have’t attempted to play it for at least 18 months.Alison  From: viphone@googlegroups.com  On Behalf Of Alex StoneSent: Tuesday, April 16, 2024 11:48 PMTo: viphone@googlegroups.comSubject: Re: Seven Little words. Alison, I also used to enjoy playing this game, I haven’t even tried to play it for probably eighteen months.

My son's Se 2020 loses its Siri voice when the battery level drops below a 
certain precentage level & is only usable again once the phone has charged to a

start working again. Once we have this info we will contact Apple.

Re: Would This Work?

2023-10-20 Thread Donna Casteen

Instead of using the feeder balls for exercise, have you considered using a 
remote control feeder mouse? Or a laser light pointer? We have a 3yr old Red 
Tip siamese who loves chasing his remote control mouse. I'm able to find the 
mouse when he is finished playing by pressing the buttons on the remote & 
following the sound. Of course, both of these toy suggestions require you to be 
an active play participant.

I have auto brightness turned off, screen brightness set to zero & blackout curtains over my bedroom window. My daughter & I just stepped into my walk in closet & shut the door. She was unable to see anything on my iPhone screen. I then turned on auto brightness &  even in a dark room, brightness goes to 10% which allowed her to be able to see the screen. She was seen by an ophthalmologist in July & her vision in both eyes is 20/20. My daughter says that she keeps her screen brightness set to 40% all the time.Donna







Then your husband must not see very well or you were in a bright place because in a dark room a sighted person can perfectly see the screen when brightness is at 0.
There would be no point to having screen curtain if all you had to do is set brightness to 0%.

I think it does completely dim the screen, which is why turning it to zero is a good thing. If mine is set to zero, my sighted husband cannot see anything. I never use the screen curtain, because I always have brightness at zero.

Re: Amazon music app for iPhone broek accessibility

2023-08-23 Thread Donna Casteen

 Feliciano,I just want you to know that you aren't alone. I'm having accessibility trouble also with the Amazon music app. I reported that none of the buttons are labeled, focus when swiping problems & skipping tracks when I'm forced to swipe past the player. I'm using an iPhone 11 with the most recent IOS & Amazon music updates. I've been having this problem for a year or more. Having screen recognition On or Off makes no difference in the Amazon app.Donna







Hi,
I didn’t explain here as I have already explained to amazon. I am having issues with unlabled buttons on both iPhone and Windows apps. On iPhone, I am also having abnormal behavior when swiping on occasion which triggers the app to go to
 the next track. If you play a track, go to the now playing screen and it’s a mess. Not sure if you’re an amazon music unlimited user as unlimited users have different UI on iPhone.

Your post is a little short on details regarding what accessibility issues you're experiencing with the latest Amazon Music app. The app seems to be working fine for me. What exactly is the problem you're having?

Hi all, 
anyone else impacted by the latest update of Amazon music for iPhone? If so, please join me and  report this bug to amazon music department. The easiest way to contact them is to contact amazon music via twitter (X) or calling Amazon and
 getting transferred to  the amazon music department.
 
I hope we can make some noise about this as I have been trying to have them make amazon music app for windows more accessible yet they seem to have screen reader accessibility  as an afterthought.

Re: accessing screen shots on iPhone and then making them readable by sighted folks

2023-07-30 Thread Donna Casteen

When taking a screenshot of a website, email etc keep in mind that to capture all of the info you want to share, you will need to take the first screenshot, go into the photos app, find the screenshot, view/listen to the last line captured in the screenshot, return to the source & scroll up with the next page in view. Make sure that screen curtain is off.DonnaI believe you will find that the photos app is actually better at finding screenshots. There is a list of auto selected types of photos, including Selfies, and Screenshots. There is a number after the name of that grouping saying how many photos match that type. You can then just double tap on the screenshots button and see all of your screenshots.automatically.Sent from my iPhoneOn Jul 29, 2023, at 8:25 PM, Richard Turner  wrote:After taking the screen shot, open the camera app, and find the button that says photo and video viewer, and  double tap.Richard, USA.“What we think or what we know or what we believe is in the end of little consequence.

Re: My phone announcing Screen curtain on

2023-06-06 Thread Donna Casteen

Switch your voiceover voice from a siri voice to a voiceover voice & it will 
stop the frequent screen curtain message. This suggestion comes from Apple & 
worked for me.

DonnaSounds serious, have never done it, what would this affect besides 
possibly this issue.

Anytime you are creating a new alarm, just swipe down past the time to snooze & 
confirm that snooze is turned off. If you do this while setting up the alarm 
time then you shouldn't have to do it later.

2023-06-04 Thread Donna Casteen

Carolyn,

Find & open the Clock app. Swipe down to the alarm time in which you want to 
turn off Snooze. Flick on the time until you get to Edit, then tap to expand. 
Swipe down to Snooze & tap to toggle OFF. Tap on Save at the top of the page. 
Tap on BACK to go to the list of your alarms to find & Edit other set Alarm 
times or just Close the app.

Re: voice dream scanner question

2023-04-19 Thread Donna Casteen

Go into the app's settings & confirm that edge detection is on. When aligning the phone with a page, the higher the tone the more the page is properly aligned. The lower the tone pitch the less the page is aligned.Donna







Hello:
I used the voice dream scanner for the first time today.  However, it read half the page from left to right but not the entire information.  What do I need to do to correct this?  Thanks in advance.

Re: Iphone se 2 cutting out on phone calls

2023-03-09 Thread Donna Casteen

Turning on wifi calling solved the cutting out during calls problem. I know 
this helps, in my case, because I had to do a hard reset of my phone because I 
was using an app & the phone stopped responding. Before I had a chance to turn 
back on wifi calling my son called me & the call cut out about every 4 minutes. 
After we hung up I turned on wifi calling. Later a person called in response to 
my voicemail message & the 43 minute call didn't cut out once. I have have & 
always have had Hey siri turned on.

If I touch one (not double-tap but just touch), the letters I enter go into that clue. If I double-tap anywhere, a screen displaying the grid opens, and if I touch a square, I’m told which square it is and whether it’s blank or what letter it contains. Doing a scrub gesture returns me to the list of Across clues. So far, so good.However, I can’t find a way to hear the Down clues with the same information. If I touch an Across clue and flick down, there’s a Reverse Direction option, but whether I simply touch that option or double-tap it, the clues don’t switch to the Down clues. The clue at the bottom of the screen, which is the one being edited does change to a Down clue, but it doesn’t tell you how many letters are in the word or whether anything is filled in. If I choose the option to bring up the list of clues, the clues do say if a letter is filled in, but not how many letters total there are or where the filled-in letter is. So it seems to be maddeningly close to accessible, but not quite. Am I missing something?Thanks,AnnaOn Feb 18, 2023, at 1:43

I’ve played Wordle every day, but that is only the one word that is with the New York Times. Is this app accessible? Thanks for any help.

While I could see the clue and after a time could enter the missing letters, I found the keyboard to be challenging at best.

I eventually figured out that if I found the right row, I could flick between the letters and double tap the one I wanted. I have since deleted the NY Times Crosswords app for these issues.

When it opens, the Across clues are listed in a very accessible way, saying how many letters the word has and whether any letters are filled in. If I touch one (not double-tap but just touch), the letters I enter go into that clue. If I double-tap anywhere, a screen displaying the grid opens, and if I touch a square, I’m told which square it is and whether it’s blank or what letter it contains. Doing a scrub gesture returns me to the list of Across clues. So far, so good.However, I can’t find a way to hear the Down clues with the same information. If I touch an Across clue and flick down, there’s a Reverse Direction option, but whether I simply touch that option or double-tap it, the clues don’t switch to the Down clues. The clue at the bottom of the screen, which is the one being edited does change to a Down clue, but it doesn’t tell you how many letters are in the word or whether anything is filled in. If I choose the option to bring up the list of clues, the clues do say if a letter is filled in, but not how many letters total there are or where the filled-in letter is. So it seems to be maddeningly close to accessible, but not quite.

Re: Accessible crossword puzzle apps

2023-02-17 Thread Donna Casteen

The New York Times crossword app & website are accessible. & so are the other 
NYT games. I also enjoy playing 7 little words. The game is similar to a 
crossword game, in which the player is given a clue & there is a grid with word 
segments 2-4 letter groups & from these segments the player choses the segment 
tiles in order to spell out the answer to each of 7 different clues.

MaMa Peach,I suspect that the person was referring to the game Pyramid 13, which was removed from the app store several years ago.

Re: Ot: a question about nls human ware e reader

2023-02-01 Thread Donna Casteen

Here is a link to 15 YouTube videos that go step by step through how to setup & use the NLS E-Reader. I had never used a braille display before. After watching these videos & reading the User Guide, I was able to use my E-Reader without any problems. I was able to login to bard & bookshare using ueb uncontracted braille.NLS eReader HumanWare How-To Seriesyoutube.comDonnaI know this is totally off topic, but I don't know who to ask. I am helping a friend with the NLS humanware ereader. I know some here have been using it for some time. We don't have them in MI yet so I can't call my library. Anyway, sorry but need help. We have been successful getting the machine on her wifi. Now we are trying to access BARD through the online services. When she enters NLS Bard it says to enter her credentials but when she enters on that it shows the username in garbled nonsense, and says ok underneath and when entering on OK it goes back to enter credentials. IPhone and iPad both have BARD working perfectly. We have turned it off and back on many times, and it does the same thing. As it is the username we're having problems with the password, when we can get to it, won't work obviously. Any thoughts? Sorry for straying so far off topic, but we may just have to hook to iPhone In the end. -- The following information is important for all members of the V iPhone list.If you have any questions or concerns about the running of this list, or if you feel that a member's post is inappropriate, please contact the owners or moderators directly rather than posting on the list itself.Your V iPhone list moderator is Mark Taylor.  Mark can be reached at:  mk...@ucla.edu.  Your list owner is Cara Quinn - you can reach Cara at caraqu...@caraquinn.comThe archives for this list can be searched at:http://www.mail-archive.com/viphone@googlegroups.com/--- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "VIPhone" group.To unsubscribe from this group and stop receiving emails from it, send an email to viphone+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com.To view this discussion on the web visit https://groups.google.com/d/msgid/viphone/56C9A150-3A0A-4432-B299-A711A995D949%40gmail.com.-- The following information is important for all members of the V iPhone list.If you have any questions or concerns about the running of this list, or if you feel that a member's post is inappropriate, please contact the owners or moderators directly rather than posting on the list itself.Your V iPhone list moderator is Mark Taylor.  Mark can be reached at:  mk...@ucla.edu.  Your list owner is Cara Quinn - you can reach Cara at caraqu...@caraquinn.comThe archives for this list can be searched at:http://www.mail-archive.com/viphone@googlegroups.com/--- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "VIPhone" group.To unsubscribe from this group and stop receiving emails from it, send an email to viphone+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com.To view this discussion on the web visit https://groups.google.com/d/msgid/viphone/2583A95D-EDB7-4F20-99D1-6D05577C7CAC%40gmail.com.

Hi all. I have been looking for a numberers based pyramid game, which could have numbers that are prime or which add up to 13. I have done searches in the App Store and on AppleVis and can't find a match. I seem to recall 'the game's
 name being something like Prime—13. It was very accessible Any ideas? Not that it matters but I have an iPhone 13 Pro with iOS 16.3.

Re: Reading downloaded audible books when not connected to the internet.

2023-01-22 Thread Donna Casteen

Go to settings, swipe to cellular & tap to open, swipe down to the list of apps until you find Audible & confirm that it is selected. Or open settings, swipe all the way down to where the list of apps that is installed on the phone starts, find Audible & tap. Here you can turn on Audible app settings.Donna Hi list!  I updated my ipod to IOS 15.7.2 today. After installing this update. I also updated my apps including the audible app to the latest app version.  However, now whenever I try to read a downloaded book when not connected to the internet, it comes up with the message please connect to the internet to continue reading.  Does anyone know why this is happening? I have always been able to read downloaded audible books without being connected to the internet.  This is a real problem, because my ipod is only connected to wifi when I'm at home.  Is there some sort of setting that I need to change to restore the ability to read downloaded audible books without being connected to the internet?  I have tried clearing the app from the app switcher and also restarting my phone.  I also tried signing out of audible and then signing in again with no success.  Do I need to delete the app and redownload it?  Or is there something else that I should do?  If this is some sort of new feature with the latest audible app, is there a way to return to to the earlier version of audible that does not behave in this way? Any assistance is greatly appreciated.

Re: When It Comes to iPhone, Are You All Thumbs?

I tried using my thumbs to enter text on my phone & found it to be unnatural

my left hand while typing with my right pointer finger. Or maybe it doesn't 
seem comfortable or natural because I don't adapt to change very well.

When I get this alert, my last sent message has failed to send.

Re: Audio cutting out when on a call/SE 2020

I'm with AT & T, using an iPhone 11 & having the problem with calls cutting out 
since updating to IOS 16.2. I was on a 42 minute call last night & the call cut 
out 5 times. I didn't think to time the interval between the periods of when

Holly,Yes, I'm having the same problem. Until this message of yours I just assumed that it was because I or the other person had a bad connection. It doesn't happen on every call, which now leads me to believe it is linked to the length of a call. I'll have to remember to take note of the time intervals between the silence when on my next couple of calls.Donna 



Hi list:
 
When I am talking to someone on a phone call, the speaker will cut out and 
I have to hold the phone to my ear to hear again.  Even when holding the 
phone to my ear, the audio will cut out.
 
I have a strong signal and even happens while talking to my neighbor next 
door.
 
 
 
Anyone else have this problem?

Re: A problem with my new SE 2022

2022-12-16 Thread Donna Casteen

Are you sure the phone battery isn't dead? Is the phone actually turned on. The Se 2020 series phones don't have an actual "press" Home button. The Home Button is a "touch" button. Have you tried plugging in a pair of headphones to see if the volume is completely lowered? My guess is that the phone is powered off or the battery is completely dead. DonnaI just tried calling myself from my Alexa device. It rang twice and went to voicemail.

Thanks for restoring my sanity! DonnaIt appears my work isn’t done yet. I had written a message for Apple Accessibility, and was seconds from sending it, when a notification came in to the lock screen.  A tone announced the notification had arrived and Siri only spoke when I swiped right, and that is when the notification was actually read.  Back to the drawing board, I decided to look at the various settings related to the News app, because earlier a News notification was read by Siri and the notification that just arrived and didn’t speak was also from the News app.   I found News was set up to receive notifications, including on the lock screen, under Notifications.  Under Accessibility/Siri, just to the right of “Announce Notifications on Speaker”, I clicked on “Announce Notifications”.  After confirming News was set to on, I clicked on “News and found “Time Sensitive Notifications” was selected for what would be announced.  I changed the setting to “Always”, and hopefully notifications from News will all now be spoken/read on the lock screen.  I will now have to go through all the other apps to see if they are set correctly.  My goodness, does this have to be so complex?   I of course updated the message to Apple Accessibility before sending it. Katrina From: viphone@googlegroups.com  On Behalf Of Katrina AndersonSent: Wednesday, November 9, 2022 11:19 AMTo: viphone@googlegroups.comSubject: RE: Reading notifications on the lock screen I just realized Chris and CJ were replying to Debbie’s message, rather than mine, so perhaps my input isn’t needed.  However, I may finally have stumbled into a positive direction and thought I’d share.  Two notifications just came in, and they were not only announced, but all of the notifications were read by Siri.  Unlike I feared, VO and Siri didn’t speak at the same time.   I’ll attempt to describe how I stumbled onto where I currently am.  As mentioned in prior messages, I had been reluctant to turn on the setting for Siri to announce notifications, hoping to prevent hearing VO and Siri speaking at the same time, so asked if I should turn on the setting for Siri to announce notifications.  An answer wasn’t provided, so I decided to turn on the setting, under notifications, for Siri to announce notifications; it didn’t make a difference.  I also tried turning on the setting, under Siri Suggestions, to announce notifications just for kicks; no change. After confirming the settings under Notifications Chris and CJ mentioned are correct, I systematically turned on/off anything under Notifications that relates to Siri and notifications.  Nothing I did caused notifications to be read on the lock screen. So, I went back to the settings under Siri/Search.  Once again, I systematically turned on/off settings; nothing changed.  I then went back to the Accessibility settings, under Siri, and proceeded in the same fashion; nothing changed.  I then decided to go back and turn on a lot of settings under Notifications, Siri/Search & Accessibility/Siri.  The last setting I activated was “Announce Notifications on Speaker”.  Shortly after, Siri announced the arrival of a notification and read the entire thing.  Was the key to turn on “Announce Notifications on Speaker”?  I’m not sure since I had that setting turned on at least once before.  It seems to me that the secret is to have a number of settings configured properly, and not just settings under notifications; kind of like a puzzle.  Maybe when I went through the settings, to set up the new phone, I changed a default setting that caused notifications to not be read on the lock screen. So, because Siri is giving me what I want, maybe I incorrectly was focused on notifications being read by VO; maybe Siri always read my notifications.  By the way, I set up two very different voices for VO and Siri, so I would know who was speaking.  I will of course share all of this with Apple Accessibility. KatrinaFrom: viphone@googlegroups.com  On Behalf Of Christopher ChaltainSent: Wednesday, November 9, 2022 9:18 AMTo: viphone@googlegroups.comSubject: RE: Reading notifications on the lock screen And it you’re talking about the lock screen, go into Settings -> Notifications and check whether you want your notifications to be displayed in a stack or a list and the show preview setting to determine if you want notification previews displayed on the lock screen or not.  --Christopher (AKA CJ) =>÷Chaltain at Outlook, USA From: viphone@googlegroups.com  On Behalf Of Chris ChaffinSent: Wednesday, November 9, 2022 6:27 AMTo: viphone@googlegroups.comSubject: Re: Reading notifications on the lock screen  If you are referring to Voiceover automatically reading notifications when they come in, I am assuming that you have already checked this, but just in case, go

You take a screenshot by pressing the side button and volume  up button at the same time.


When you do you hear a camera like sound and then at the bottom left of the screen is a thumbnail image of the screenshot, but you can simply press the buttons and after a short delay Voiceover will say "Screenshot, button",
 once you hear this double tap anywhere.


After you doble tap most likely Voiceover will say "Done", this is the top left button on the screen, if you flick right you get the following in this order:


Undo, dimmed (this let's you undo any changes you may make to the screenshot like cropping it and so on, most likely not something you would or could do)


Redo, dimmed (same sort of thing, I wouldn't worry about it)


Markup


Delete


Share (this is the one you most likely would want, once you tap it your regular share sheet opens and you can email it to yourself or somebody else, text it, save it and all that)


Now you get stuff which I don't know what exactly it is for, I assume it is where you may drag to crop the image:


Top left corner handle, flick right and you hear "Screenshot 1 of 1, flick again and you get top edge hHandle, then top right corner handle, left edge handle, right edge handle, bottom left corner handle, bottom right
 corner handle, bottom edge handle.


Lastly you get Crop and Scale or Select Text and the last item is Detect Text which you actually could use and which would recognize any text in the screenshot.


 


If you don't do anything after taking the screenshot, e.g. if you don't double tap when Voiceover says "Screenshot, button" then it goes away after a few seconds, but your screenshot will automatically be saved to your
 camera roll and if you open Photos you can find a "screenshot" category under "Media Types" and you can find your screenshot there and you can of course share it from there just like any picture.

Yes, you have to provide your Apple Id password and yes, it is save. Actually it is probably safer because you can choose for Apple to reveal your actual email address or to hide it in which case any emails still get
 forwarded to you. Keep in mind that if you had already created an account/separate login with Envision I would use that and if you forgot the password you can probably request a password reset and change it. I sometimes use my Apple Id to log in if that option
 is given and if I hadn't previously set up login credentials. There is a chance if your lifetime subscription is connected to a separate login you created at the time it may not show up if you log in using your Apple Id.

Re: iphone not unlocking

2022-10-27 Thread Donna Casteen

Paula, I suggest first try powering off your phone, then restarting it. I turned off my passcode to see if I could duplicate the behavior. On my iPhone 11, with six attempts of swiping up to unlock the phone, each time my phone unlocked properly placing me on the first page of apps.Donna Hi everyone. I’m having a new issue since my 16.1 update. I do not have face ID or a passcode set up. I unlock my phone and swipe up to get to my home screen, but, in spite of the fact that I get the expected sounds, my phone stays stuck on the screen that gives the notifications, time, date, camera and flash light status. After swiping up a few times, locking my phone and unlocking it, I still can’t get to the home screen. This has happened twice since last night. Is this a bug or is it my phone being flakey? I haven’t yet done a re-set all settings. That’s the next thing I can think to try. Any thoughts?God bless!Paula and the pups God bless!Paula and the pups

Gera, Apple uses Shazam for song identification. A few days ago there was an 
update to Shazam. For me, strangely my Apple watch running IOS 9, Siri will 
immediately identify a song every time. But if I use my iPhone 11 running 16.02

Re: "a question about updating

2022-10-08 Thread Donna Casteen

Sieghard, Didn't I just read in this group or maybe another group that you are 
running the IOS beta on your iPhone? It is nice to know that Apple has fixed 
the bug to be released in an upcoming update. Until the IOS update is released, 
Siri identifying songs won't work for those of us who aren't beta testers. 
Downloading Shazam & using Siri still does not return any results. I've checked 
Settings, Siri & Settings, Accessibility, Siri & can't find a setting that may 
need changing to have Siri identify songs.

I have both phones that you mentioned. Both phones have been updated to IOS

Accessing Notifications is a pain & Siri can't identify a song.

Re: Entering Patient Information In Ellume COVID Home Test

2022-10-05 Thread Donna Casteen

First, with the app open confirm that screen recognition isn't on. I had no trouble entering my minor daughter's info into the app. Unless you need a copy of the test results sent to you for verification to give to an employer or similar, the info in the app doesn't have to be correct.Donna I need some tips or confirmation about entering my patient information in the Ellume COVID Home Test app. I am using an iPhone SE 2022 and iOS 15.7.  My typing style is set to touch typing.  I typically find the letter I want to enter and lift my finger to enter the letter. When I enter my first, middle, and last name, I hear a click when I lift my finger on each letter.  But I cannot confirm that I have entered the correct information. Here is my biggest problem.  There are picker items for the month, day, and year of my date of birth.  I adjust each of the picker items the the correct value and double-tap to hopefully enter the value.  But when I look at the edit field, the original values of the picker items are still there.  The cursor is positioned at the end of the date (which is today’s date).  There is no delete button to delete the value.  What do I need to do to be sure the values of the picker items are used as my birth date? I appreciate any help that will get me through this process. Rob Armstrong

Strange, I received the message, dismissed it by tapping on OK. I have searched for a book, viewed the Most Recent Add To Bard list & have been listening to a book all with no problems. Are you certain that screen recognition didn't accidently get turned on?DonnaUSA-iPhone 11Hello,After getting a warning this morning that NLS was aware books are taking longer to upload due to some structural changes they are making, etc., and hitting OK to get back to my book, BARD is useless!There is no rewind button, there is an unlabeled button that ends up being the jump to next part, chapter, etc.  The Fast Forward is labeled FF.There is no Speed control slider.None of the tabs along the bottom work.I cleared the app switcher and rebooted the phone.  Nothing changed.I deleted the app.It was a nightmare getting logged back in.  I had to toggle VO off a couple of times to proceed.Once signed back in, I was able to go to previous downloads and redownload the book, The Vanishing Half by Brit Bennett, our book club  book for October.  However, there is no difference.  The app is useless. IN this case, I found that Bookshare has the same recording, just added on September 28, 2022.  So, I can get back to the book with the same reader in the same lace I was and not having to switch to the synthesized voice since I am used to the reader, and like her very much.I wrote NLS immediately. If you get the warning about their network, I hope you don’t end up in the same mess, but I suspect you may.  Richard, USA.“Reality is the leading cause of stress for those who are in touch with it.”  --  Jane Wagner from The Search for Intelligent Life in the Universe My web site: https://www.turner42.com _._,_._,_Groups.io Links:You receive all messages sent to this group.

Re: Accessible photo album

Hi,You didn't mention which iPhone that you have. If your iPhone is an iPhone 11 or newer or one of the newer Se models do the followering; Open the photo app, turn the rotor to screen recognition & flick to turn OFF. Not finding screen recognition in the rotor? Go to settings, accessibility, voiceover, voice recognition & turn screen recognition OFF. Hopefully, this is your problem with the photo app, because All of Apple's stock apps are fully accessible.DonnaI find the iPhone photo album entirely inaccessible. I was never able to flick to see the pictures, only two stab at my phone and hope to find one. Is there a fully accessible photo album that I can transfer my pictures to?Chaim Biberfeld, LCSW-RPrivate Practice917-902-3349thegototherapist.com

I can't answer your notification center question. I'm having trouble 
interacting with notifications within notification center & clearing all 
notifications from notification center.

As for your problem with Facebook. You didn't mention which iPhone you are 
using. If you are using an iPhone 11 or newer, confirm that screen recognition 
is off.

Re: No speaker while using Amazon app

2022-09-23 Thread Donna Casteen

Hi,

Open the Alexa app, then immediately close the app sending it to the app 
switcher.
Open the app switcher & open the Alexa app. You should now have speech as 
normal.
Tap on More bottom left corner.
Swiping down from the top, when you get to Settings tap to open.
Swiping down from the top, when you get to Alexa App Settings tap to open.
Swiping down from the top, the first item is Alexa Hands Free, tap to Enable. 
This setting is a toggle, tapping again would turn the feature off. You want 
Hands Free Enabled.
The next time you open the Alexa app you should have speech.

Re: iOS 16.02 is available with VO fixes

2022-09-23 Thread Donna Casteen

Nope, doesn't work for me, using an iPhone 11. I have always had my 
notifications set to list & switching the notification view to stack gets me 
the same results, not able to open a notification. I am able to open ONLY ONE 
notification if I have powered off my phone & immediately go to notification 
center after the phone is powered on. Using the tap & hold, then swiping to 
Preview & tapping to open a notification does nothing.

Re: problem with deleting text messages

2022-09-15 Thread Donna Casteen

Carolyn, You will need a sighted person to enter your phone passcode for you. 
Some people have reported once they regain access to their phone changing their 
passcode the no voiceover on the lock screen after powering off the phone goes 
away. Others still continue to have the problem with no voiceover speech after 
powering off their phone. I have opted not to use a passcode, this includes 
face & fingerprint ID, which both require a passcode after a power off of the 
device. Hopefully, Apple will release a fix to this very annoying bug in the 
coming week or two.

Re: Amazon Music routing through Ear

2022-09-11 Thread Donna Casteen

Chaim, Yes, the question was answered. Open the Amazon music app, close the app 
sending it to the app switcher, open the app switcher, then open the Amazon 
music app. You should now hear voiceover coming from the phone speaker instead 
of the phone ear piece. Swipe to the more tab & tap to open, swipe to settings 
& tap to open, swipe to hands free & tap to turn this off if it is on or turn 
on if it is off. This setting depends on how you have the Hands Free setting in 
the Amazon Alexa app set. If you have Hands Free on in the Alexa app, Hands 
Free needs to be off in the Amazon music app. If Hands Free is off in the Alexa 
app, it needs to be on in the Amazon music app. Hope this makes sense.

Re: ScannerBin developer wants feedback

2022-09-02 Thread Donna Casteen

A large print social security letter, each page measures 12x18. So a scanner of

SSI or SSDI benefit letter to  be attached to an email.

Re: Apple watch

2022-08-22 Thread Donna Casteen

You should be given an option to pair using a code. I'm not certain, on how 
this was accomplished. It has been a year since I tried pairing using the code. 
It must of have been more trouble & just as time consuming, being I've used the 
camera to pair since initial setup.

Re: Intercom for Sonos, HEOS ...

2022-08-10 Thread Donna Casteen

Janet, I used Alexa's Drop-In feature when I took my vacation to California. 
Once I reached my friends home, I connected to her wifi. I would drop in 
several times a day to listen for any unusual noises & our home door security 
alarms. We use the Ring video camera, which connects to Alexa & security alarms 
purchased from Home Depot. I like the drop in feature also, because I can drop 
in on my kids while I'm running errands, by using public wifis..

Re: From Mark to the List, Just a General Apple Accessibility Gravity Check-in

Lisa, This is not true. The Amazon Alexa app can do Everything that an Alexa 
device can do. I have an old iPhone, which has no cellular service. The phone 
is connected to wifi only. I/we use the app ONLY to control smart lights & our 
Ring security camera. The Only thing that I do Not use the app for is adding 
items into my shopping cart & placing orders. I even make wifi calls using the

Re: Word pronunciation with VoiceOver

2022-06-27 Thread Donna Casteen

Hi,

I'm using Samantha enhanced for my voiceover voice. She seems to mispronounce 
quite a few words. The one I hate the most is "onto" for the word on-to. But to 
answer your question, yes she mispronounced the word holiday in your email, but 
proof reading my reply, she pronounces the word holiday correctly.

Re: composing an email query

2022-06-26 Thread Donna Casteen

Anthony, this does indeed sound strange. I have never seen a setting for this 
type of email problem. My thought is that you are not actually composing your 
email in the section of the body of the email is to be typed. From my first 
time user of an iPhone days, I suspect that you are most likely accidently 
writing your email in the Subject field of the new email. I found that double 
tapping about an inch up from the bottom edge of the phone would place the 
cursor in the correct place for me to compose my email. There are 4 areas in an 
open email To, CC, double tapping on this will open a Bcc, Subject & main body 
of the email.

The app & website MeetUp & Next Door are good resources, as long as you aren't 
looking for just blind specific groups or clubs. I'm not saying there won't be 
any blind specific groups or clubs, just if there is, there won't be many. To 
find out about blind specific groups or clubs, check with vocational rehab, 
they may know or be able to put you on track to finding the info.

Re: Bard Mobile App crashes when doing a search

2022-06-11 Thread Donna Casteen

There was an update to Bard Mobile yesterday that was suppose to fix the search 
bug. Did the update not fix the bug? I suggest when writing to report bugs, 
make a screen recording of the problem. A video speaks a 1,000 words. A 
description only presents a small picture of what is actually occurring.

Re: A serious problem with Facebook messenger

2022-05-30 Thread Donna Casteen

Here is what I did when testing my idea with a friend whom I have never 
corresponded with on Messenger. We are Facebook friends though. Go to the 
persons Facebook profile, tap on Send Message. The page will open, but 
voiceover will only speak "Loading." Use the rotor & turn to screen recognition 
& flick to turn it On. Touch the screen about a finger length from the bottom 
of the screen, swipe til you hear voiceover say "Smile A Button or Smile 
Button." Tap on this,  If you are in the correct place the on-screen keyboard 
will pop up. I suggest keeping the message short by maybe just typing Hi, 
because the text field is not present. The dictation button is there, but I 
didn't test using dictation because I never use the feature. Turn the rotor 
once again to screen recognition & flick to turn it Off, then  immediately 
flick again to turn it back on. Doing this is necessary to bring up the Send 
button. Swipe down to Send & tap to send the message. Turn the rotor to screen 
recognition & flick to turn it Off. Close Messenger from the app switcher & go 
open Messenger once again. Your message that you just sent should be on top, 
like any other time when you message someone, the active conversation moves to 
the top. I realize this sounds like a lot to do just to send one message, but 
there is no guarantee that Facebook will fix this bug in there next update. 
Fingers crossed that the bug is fixed soon. If not, at least you have the work 
around.

Re: A serious problem with Facebook messenger

2022-05-30 Thread Donna Casteen

It is a Facebook Messenger bug. I have a work around if you use an iPhone 11 or 
newer. It requires briefly turning on screen recognition, that is why the above 
phones are needed.

Re: Icloud

2022-05-29 Thread Donna Casteen

If you have an iPad all of the apps & the content of each app is also backed up 
to the same 5Gigs of Free iCloud storage. I can't say for certain, but I 
suspect the same may hold true if you use a Mac computer.

Re: Icloud

2022-05-29 Thread Donna Casteen

Go into the music app, photos app, any downloaded books app & delete some of 
them. These are the biggest space consuming apps. Delete any apps that you 
don't use. I pay $0.99 for an extra 50 gigs of storage per month.

Re: Message received from blocked sender

It has been my experience, especially with mass spam junk mail, it takes a

Re: AT

2022-04-21 Thread Donna Casteen

Hi,

I am a long time AT customer. When I receive a voicemail message, I receive 
an audio message & a transcribed message. Have you setup your voicemail 
mailbox? What happens if you tap on Greeting in the upper left, while in the 
phone app, within the voicemail tab? I have never had to have AT setup 
anything with voicemail on any of my phones or those of my family members.

Re: Changing emoji skin tones

Stephanie,

The skin tone can't be changed on the smiley or other faces. To change the skin 
tone on the hand gestures & people, tap on the image & hold, this will bring up 
the different skin tones for you to choose from. The skin tone choices will be 
above the image.
