RE: Trivia Crack Kingdoms

[NIMAS]

Monica,

 

I play Kingdom all the time and have never had a problem closing ads. The close 
button is almost always in the upper right hand corner of the screen. Sometimes 
it is unlabeled and just says “button.” 

Double tap it and you should be fine. If that doesn’t do anything, try the 
upper left corner. Sometimes it’s over there.

 

I heard that you could pay for an ad-free version, but there was traffic on 
this list awhile ago that said that the feature didn’t work. Haven’t heard 
anything about it lately. That’s what I did for the original Trivia Crack. Best 
$2.99 I ever spent!

I really enjoy this game, but after I play one player, I get an ad screen. 
Sometimes there will be a done button, but mostly, there is no way to leave the 
ad screen without removing Kingdoms from the app switcher and restarting it. 
Thanks bunches for feedback and/or tips.

Indeed it is Daren; here’s how you do it:

1) Of course, have the Recents tab in the phone app in focus.
2) Locate the entry you desire.
3) Find and double tap the “More Info” button immediately after the desired 
phone number.
4) Depending on whether you want to create an entirely new contact or simply 
add the selected number to an existing contact double click the appropriate 
number.

That will place you into an edit dialog for the new or existing contact.

RE: Bar Code Reader App??

[NIMAS]

Jewel,

 

I have been using DigitEyes for a number of years. It actually works great if … 
(a big if!) you can find and successfully scan the bar code. That, as they say, 
is the rub. Once you have accomplished that, you will get more information 
about the product in question than you probably ever wanted. How far to hold 
the phone away from the product and where to scan is difficult to determine.

 

A few hints: If you are scanning a can or bottle with a wrap-around label, look 
for the seam and scan just to the right or left of it near the bottom of the 
container for the bar code. If you are looking at a box, scan the sides, not 
the back or front, again toward the bottom edge. Hold the phone about 6- to 
8-inches away from the object.

 

It takes practice and a lot of patience, but it is doable.

Subject: Bar Code Reader App??

 

 

I downloaded digit_eyes lite, but from what I can make out, i am supposed to be 
going along the shelves in a grocery store, chemist etc,having the iphone 
record the barcode information as it is seen:  mind you, I haven't been able to 
make it give the smallest squeak yet!
Once it has noted the barcode information of all the products I have shown it, 
I can attach audio labels to those products and make a list of what I am 
interested in.
I set up a bottle of gingerale on my display stand for it to identify, but no 
such luck!  All it said was "scanning ...  scanning ... scanning.  The 3 dots 
represent the loud click the phone gave between each announcement that it was 
scanning.
It seemed to be, completely, blind to the fact that it had a bottle of 
gingerale standing in front of it.
Well digit-eyes lite or heavy seemed to me to be out, so replacing my bottle of 
gingerale with a can of paint, I let my trusty Tap Tap See loose on it, and was 
told that it was apurple and red can.  Well the purple and red was additional 
information but that of it being a can was nothing new because a can I knew it 
to be.
Moving on to Camfind.
In the beginning, as TTS had done, I was told that it was a can, but the 
colours were a lot more fancy:  cherry, strawberry and maybe something else 
fruit-related.  No, there wasn't a bowl of cherries anywhere, in case you are 
asking.
Then, without my appearing to do anything, I seemed to be hurled, into the 
world of vehicle and personal accident insurance.  Where in the wide world that 
came from, I haven't the foggiest.
I was told that I could get Tap Tap See to read a label, but I haven't found 
the trick of getting it to do that.
Speaking of Tap Tap See, by far my favourite photo recognition app, so far, I 
took a  photo in my kitchen cum sitting-room last night and got back a 
description containing 6 separate details:  Detail #1: "medium-sized dog"  #2:  
black short-haired coat"  #3:  "Lying on brown *fur carpet" #4:  "in front of 
cupboard"  #5:  beside black steel wood burner"  #6:  "in the house!"  Not bad: 
 huh!
I put an asterix beside fur as my home help has passed remarks on the amount of 
hair that Guideon deposits on the carpet and the evidence of the contents of 
the vacuum cleaner bag prove that she is not telling porkies, but have TTS 
describe it as a *fur carpet was, I thought,  just a bit rich.

Is it hard to locate the barcode with digit eyes? Can digitize see barcodes on 
products from stores, the ready made barcodes? I know you can make your own 
barcode labels but how does it do with boxed foods and cans of food, and other 
household products? Does it have a barcode database for these things? Thanks 
for any clarification. I had heard that iPhone cameras were not as good at 
picking out bar codes as were the laser barcode readers, but I am wondering if 
this is accurate.
Thanks for any information anyone can share.
Another question: does digitize have barcodes that you can so or pin onto 
clothing and that can go through the washer and dryer for color labels?
Thanks

Hi, Everyone.

Trivia Crack / Kingdoms

[NIMAS]

For those of you who play Trivia Crack and Trivia Crack Kingdoms, I’ve got a 
couple of questions.

 

First, In Trivia Crack, you can go into settings, select “Upgrade” and buy an 
ad-free version. This option does not seem to appear in Kingdoms. If it’s 
there, where is it? Those ads get to be quite annoying after awhile.

 

Second, Sometimes, while playing Kingdoms, touching the area immediately under 
“Play Now” which is usually where your turns are listed dumps you out of the 
game and back to your home screen. The game does not close, however, since you 
can find it and enter it again through the ap switcher. Has anybody else 
experienced this? I am using the current version of the game on a 5C.

 

Thanks.

Speaking of Sirius XM, I know at one time I found an audio captcha on their 
site to help to log in. But the last couple of times I tried logging on, there 
was no audio captcha to be found. I wish they would have left things well 
enough alone. Now I can’t log in to make changes to my account unless I have 
sighted help or call them. At least the online player for listening to on 
demand content is now accessible with VoiceOver on the Mac. That is one of my 
favorite aspects of the service. So if I miss a show, I can catch it later.

Hi, Juliet.  

 

Thanks to you and the other responder for input.  

 

That’s what I’m concerned about, what level of subscription I have, and whether 
it will cost more to be able to use the app if I need to make a change.  

 

My current subscription rolls over in a couple months for the next year, and 
I’m trying to make sure I have enough money cleared so the card it’s billed to 
doesn’t reject it.  

 

I’m hoping I already have the sufficient level of service I need to make it 
work.

RE: WIFI timers

[NIMAS]

Tom,

 

Belkin manufactures a number of WIFI devices under the WEMO brand. I have 
several 15-amp light switches and a wall-wart into which I plug a lamp. They 
can all be programmed with either an IPhone or Android. I use an IPhone and, 
believe it or not, the ap is pretty accessable.

 

The problem that you’re going to have is that a residential light switch is not 
rated for the current drawn by a pool pump. So, to use this type of device, 
you’d have to install a relay which would be controlled by the switch. I know 
of no other, more industrial WIFI-type devices.

 

Darrin

 

By the way, it’s nice to be able to turn onn and off lights in your home with 
your IPhone. It’s also nice to be able to look at your phone and determine 
whether a light is on or off. I have my outside lights programmed to come on at 
sunset and go off at sunrise. Very convenient since they never have to be 
reprogrammed as the days get longer and shorter.
