Re: Siri & activation tone

2022-08-22 Thread Woody Anna Dresner
Hi Donna,

Do you have the mute switch on. For me, the tones play when the phone isn't 
muted but don't if it is.

Best,
Anna

Re: screen recognition

2022-07-12 Thread Woody Anna Dresner
Hi,

I suggest putting Screen Recognition in VoiceOver Quick Settings instead of the 
rotor. That way, it's still easy to access but much harder to turn on by 
accident.

Best,
Anna

Re: Making an App more accessible

2022-07-10 Thread Woody Anna Dresner
Hello Terri,

Assuming you find the developer's contact information, describe the problem you 
are having in as much detail as you can. You could say something like, "All the 
buttons on this screen just say, "Button," so I can't tell which one does 
what," or "When I open the status screen, I just hear clicks when I touch the 
status information." Tell them what you are trying to accomplish, what steps 
you take to try and accomplish it, and what goes wrong. That way, they can 
follow along with VoiceOver running and see why it's a problem. You don't have 
to tell them how to fix it; just make sure they understand the issue. 
Especially if it's a small company or a single developer, you might want to 
refer them to the Developer Resources section of AppleVis, which is designed to 
help developers make their apps more accessible.

While you're waiting to hear from the developer, you might want to try turning 
on Screen Recognition in inaccessible parts of the app. Sometimes this can help 
quite a bit. No guarantees, of course, but it's worth a try.

I hope that's of some help.

Best,
Anna

Re: Moving photos from my iPhone

2022-06-13 Thread Woody Anna Dresner
Hello Chaim,

If you have a Mac, you can share your photo library. Then all the photos on 
your phone will also be on your Mac.

If you use Windows, I think that if you connect your phone to your PC, a new 
drive will appear in Windows Explorer. This is your Photos folder, and you can 
copy the photos to your computer using Windows Explorer. At least, that used to 
be how it worked; I haven't tried it in a long time.

Best,
Anna

Re: accessible metronome app for watch currently free

A great place to use it is in the list of apps. The faster you turn it, the 
faster you move, so you can get through a long list quickly.

Best,

Re: SharePlay

2022-06-05 Thread Woody Anna Dresner
Hi,

When someone starts the stream, everyone else will be told a session is 
available and have the option to join with SharePlay. When you choose to join, 
you will be able to hear, and there will be controls you can use to play and 
stop and such. Just make sure they use an app everyone has. You could practice 
by calling someone with FaceTime Video. Then one of you can start using an app 
you both have to play content.

good luck,
Anna

Re: accessible metronome app for watch currently free

2022-06-05 Thread Woody Anna Dresner
Hi Richard,

Turn off digital crown navigation with a 2-finger triple-tap, and you will be 
able to adjust the BPM with VoiceOver running. This isn't an accessibility 
problem; it's what you have to do anytime you want to use the digital crown to 
perform an app function rather than navigate the screen.

Best,
Anna

accessible metronome app for watch currently free

2022-06-05 Thread Woody Anna Dresner
Hi everyone,

AppsGoneFree told me about an app called Metronome for Watch, Haptic Watch 
Metronome that is currently free. It works only on the watch and is fully 
accessible; you adjust the BPM with the digital crown, and VoiceOver reports 
what you've set it to. The watch taps your wrist and also beeps if Silent Mode 
is off. There's also a start button, which becomes a Stop button when you 
select it. The metronome isn't accurate on my watch, but I think that's because 
it's a Series 3. Reviewers said it works well on watches with the Always On 
feature. The link is
https://apps.apple.com/us/app/metronome-for-watch/id1498649562

HTH,
Anna

Yes, that's where it is. When I double-tap the current option, a screen opens

You can also go to Settings/General/iPhone Storage, which lists apps in the

Re: whatsapp update query

2022-05-27 Thread Woody Anna Dresner
Hi,

I don't think it's ever possible to delete an app from anywhere other than the 
App Store; it's just that apps can announce that an update is available so you 
can go to the store and download it.

Best,
Anna

Re: whatsapp update query

2022-05-27 Thread Woody Anna Dresner
Hi,

I had that type of notice with the Ten Percent Happier app a week or two ago, 
so it's definitely still possible to get a notice that an update is available 
when you open an app.

Best,
Anna

Re: whatsapp update query

2022-05-26 Thread Woody Anna Dresner
Hi Sieghard and all,

I occasionally open an app and get a notice that it needs to be updated. If the 
message is coming from anywhere else, though, such as a text or email message, 
I agree that it's very suspicious and should be ignored.

Best,
Anna

Hi Anthony,

Triple-tap the App Store icon, and choose Updates. That will open the App Store 
on your account page. Touch the middle of the screen and flick down with 3 
fingers to refresh the page so all updates will be available.

HTH,

Hello Juan,

You may want to check the AppleVis app directory and, if there's nothing 
helpful there, start a forum topic on AppleVis. That way, you'll reach as many 
people as possible with your question.

Best of luck in finding an answer!

Thanks, Richard. The link worked great. I would add a couple of tips to your 
instructions:

I needed sighted help to sign into the Kindle app. I couldn't get to the fields 
for entering my email address or password. I tried JAWS, NVDA, and Narrator 
with no luck.

Also, to turn off updating, open a book in the Kindle app, and tab to Options. 
Press Enter. In the first section of Options, which is general, tab to a check 
box about automatic updating. Make sure to uncheck it.

HTH, and May the 4th be with you all!

Re: accessing a Kindle eBook that refuses to play nicely with VoiceOver

2022-05-03 Thread Woody Anna Dresner
Hi Vicki,

Since these apps are several years old, I'm sure they would work fine on 
Windows 7. I needed sighted help to sign into the Kindle app, but after that, 
it was accessible. Be sure to tab to Options, go into it, and turn off 
automatic updating.

Best,
Anna

Re: Codex by James Scholes is now on my web site

2022-05-03 Thread Woody Anna Dresner
Hello Alan and Richard and Malcolm,

Thank you all for your help. Alan, I had no problems downloading your Codex 
link. I needed sighted help to sign into the Kindle app because the only thing 
I could do myself was select the Amazon store. Fortunately, the app was 
accessible once I was signed in. I was able to download my book and convert it. 
There is real text there, alleluia! It's going to take some editing to make it 
easy to read because (not surprisingly) the Hebrew came out as gibberish, but 
it should be workable. Thanks again to all of you!

All the best,
Anna

Re: accessing a Kindle eBook that refuses to play nicely with VoiceOver

2022-05-03 Thread Woody Anna Dresner
Hi Richard and alan,

First, Richard, thanks for the info. However, I just found some info at
https://github.com/jscholes/codex <https://github.com/jscholes/codex>
and it's not good. James Scholes is no longer supporting the software. Github 
has the source code at the link I mentioned, but it would require knowledge of 
Python and various other tools to make it usable. I know people move on and 
can't support projects forever, but what a shame, especially since there don't 
seem to be a lot of other options. Richard, do you, by any chance, have the 
documentation and the Codex executable? If so, could you possibly create a 
download link for them? I totally get it if this isn't possible.

Thanks a lot,
Anna

accessing a Kindle eBook that refuses to play nicely with VoiceOver

2022-05-03 Thread Woody Anna Dresner
Hi everyone,

I purchased  a Kindle eBook on my phone and was told, "VoiceOver does not 
support this content." It's a Jewish prayerbook, and odds are that it's 
pictures of the pages, rather than the actual text. I know there used to be 
software that could convert Kindle eBooks into accessible formats. If I end up 
with an image-based file, such as an images-only PDF, I can run it through 
Voice Dream Reader to recognize the text, so I'm fine if the software creates 
an image file. Does anyone know of software that can do this? I have access to 
computers running MacOS and Windows, so either is fine.

Thanks so much for any help! I'd like to have this for my nephew's bar mitzvah 
in a couple of weeks.

Best,
Anna

Re: iPhone 13 mini issues

2022-04-17 Thread Woody Anna Dresner
Hi Martin,

There's no way to bypass the lock screen. Just do what you're doing.

It sounds like you know the gestures for the Home screen and App switcher. If 
you don't lift your finger right away, VoiceOver will tell you to, but since 
the gestures are working, you're doing fine and don't need to worry about those 
hints.

You should be able to tap anywhere on the back of your phone, even if it's in a 
case. Just double-or triple-tap as normal, and the gestures you have assigned 
will work. If you haven't assigned a gesture yet, though, nothing will happen 
when you double-or triple-tap.

HTH,
Anna

Re: help with sleep app!

2022-03-30 Thread Woody Anna Dresner
Hello,

You can turn off all the Sleep features at once in the Health app. Choose 
Sleep, then Sleep Schedule. I have it off at the moment, so I'm not sure 
exactly where it is, but I believe that right under the Your Schedule heading 
is a Sleep Schedule button that opens a screen with a toggle at the top that 
will turn it off. This turns off Wind-Down, the alarm, and all the rest of it.

Best,
Anna

Re: Suggestions needed for focus setting not to be interrupted while sleeping

2022-03-20 Thread Woody Anna Dresner
Hi,

YOu can set up a focus on a schedule. For instance, I have Do Not Disturb turn 
on automatically at 11 PM and turn off automatically at 8 AM. You can also turn 
one on for an hour, so I haven't tried this, but you could tell Siri to turn it 
on for 3 hours or some such.

You could also turn the volume down while you're asleep.

HTH,
Anna

Re: iTunes music not transferring to iPhone

2022-03-10 Thread Woody Anna Dresner
Hi,

iTunes has a powerful retagging feature. YOu can tag an individual track or an 
album. Select the track or tracks you want to work with, and press Control I in 
Windows or CMD-I on a Mac. You can even set up your iTunes library to organize 
your music, in which case it will move tracks into album folders which are 
within artist folders when you tag the tracks.

Best,
Anna

Re: A Question About How to Get VoiceOver to Read Notifications on Apple Watch 7

2022-01-18 Thread Woody Anna Dresner
Hi Mark and all,

I sometimes have to flick left or right to read them, but I can read the 
notifications. I have had them not read when they come in. If that happens, I 
cover the screen to put the screen to sleep, then wake it up and flick down 
with two fingers to open Notification Center. The notifications read better 
there.

Re: How to delete large chunks of text?

Hi,

This wouldn't work for deleting, but for opening context menus and such, you 
can also do a triple-tap.

Best,
Anna

Hi Kay,

You can also touch the Delete key, then do a double-tap and hold. Just like 
with 3D Touch, text will continue to be deleted as long as you hold your finger 
on the screen.

Hi Jenny,

Touch any app, then flick up or down to Edit Mode and double-tap. Touch Mail, 
flick up or down to Drag, and double-tap. Touch the place where you want Mail, 
flick until you find the choice to drop it there, and double-tap.

Re: voiceover speech and bluetooth speakers

Hi Rani,

Find your speakers in Bluetooth Settings. flick up or down until you get to 
More Info, and double-tap. There should be an item called Device Type. Select 
that, and then choose Speaker. After that, at least most of the time, VoiceOVer 
should come out of your phone, while music comes out of the speaker.

Re: Homepage & App Switcher have been taken Care Off, Now a New Question?

2022-01-02 Thread Woody Anna Dresner
Hi Fazil,

If Face ID fails, the keypad should come up automatically so you can enter your 
password.

If Face ID is failing all the time, make sure you are holding the phone about 
12 cm in front of your face and that the phone has a clear view of your face. 
You might want to get sighted help to get the angle and distance right. If that 
doesn't help, delete the scan and try again, making sure you have plenty of 
light. Having lots of light will help you get a really good scan. Once you have 
a good scan, you don't need any light at all for face recognition to work.

HTH,
Anna

Re: Voice Dream Reader with a braille display

2021-12-28 Thread Woody Anna Dresner
Hi Richard,

I agree that Dream Reader works well with braille. You can control how much of 
the screen is taken up by text. Having only a couple of lines makes it less 
likely that you will lose your place, which can happen if you have a lot of 
lines onscreen and accidentally touch text that is many lines from where you 
were reading. Panning works smoothly and doesn't result in lost or duplicated 
text.

Best,
Anna

Re: message app has disappeared from my home page, and and also my phone says Doc and contacts together when going into home screen?

2021-12-13 Thread Woody Anna Dresner
Hi Pat,

It sounds like screen recognition may have gotten turned on on your home 
screen. That could result in some items not being read and others being read as 
a group. If you have screen recognition on the rotor, from your home screen 
turn the rotor to screen Recognition, and flick up or down until it's off. It's 
probably also in Quick Settings, which you can get to with a 2-finger 
quadruple-tap. Make sure you're on a home screen before giving that command.

HTH,
Anna

Re: Two Apple watches

2021-12-12 Thread Woody Anna Dresner
Hi,

There is a feature called Family setup that, according to Apple, "lets family 
members who don't have their own iPhone enjoy the features and benefits of an 
Apple Watch." To learn more, go to

https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT211768


I hope Family setup does what you need.

All the best,
Anna

Re: iPhone onscreen keyboard will not display

2020-09-21 Thread Woody Anna Dresner
I'm so glad that worked. If this ever happens again, you don't need to unpair 
anything. Just connect a keyboard or braille display, open an edit field, and 
press the Eject key on the keyboard or Space with dots 146 (think sh for 
Show/Hide keyboard).

Anna

Re: Annoying change in the actions rotor and messages

2020-09-18 Thread Woody Anna Dresner
Pin puts the message thread at the top. You can pin up to 8 conversations so 
they're always at the top and easy to find.

Re: Can't Figure Out How to Update My Watch

2020-09-17 Thread Woody Anna Dresner
Hi Shirley,

In the Watch app on your phone, open General, then Software Update. It's easier 
to do it from there than from the watch itself.

Best,
Anna

Re: Is there an alternative way to access the iOS 14 App library screen?

2020-09-17 Thread Woody Anna Dresner
Hi,

First go into Edit mode by touching an app, flicking up or down to Edit Mode, 
and double-tapping. Then find the page indicator, just above the dock, that 
says which page you're on. Double-tap it. A screen opens listing all of the 
pages of apps you have. Double-tap to toggle between hiding and showing them. 
Press Home or do the Home gesture when you're done.

Best,
Anna

Re: Is there an alternative way to access the iOS 14 App library screen?

Hi Alan,

You can hide the pages of apps that you don't access very often. That makes it 
quicker to get to the library.

copying ringtones to an iOS device from the Mac in Catalina

2019-11-24 Thread Woody Anna Dresner
Hi,

I've been working with someone in Apple Accessibility tech support on copying 
ringtones from a Mac to an iOS device running Catalina, and they sent me steps 
that work. I can't get the part of the directions involving selecting multiple 
tones at once to work, but copying one tone at a time works reliably using this 
method. I'm so glad there's a way to do this without Garage Band! Here are the 
steps:

1) Open two Finder windows: one containing the General tab of an iOS device and 
one with a folder containing a ringtone file (MPEG-4 audio file with .m4r file 
extension).
2) Move the VoiceOver cursor to the ringtone file. To install more than one 
ringtone, use VO-Command-Return to select each of the ringtones before 
proceeding to the next step.
3) Press VO-Command-fn-5 to move the mouse pointer to the VoiceOver cursor's 
location.
4) Press VO-Command-Shift-Space to click and hold the mouse button (to start 
dragging).
5) Use Window Chooser (VO-fn-2-2) to switch to the Finder window that the iOS 
device is in.
6) Move the VoiceOver cursor to "General, scroll area".
7) Press VO-Command-Shift-Space to release the mouse button (to drop the files 
in this location).

Enjoy,
Anna

live lyrics

2019-09-27 Thread Woody Anna Dresner
Hello,

I remember that in the wWDC event, they said Live Lyrics would be available in 
iOS 13, which would show the lyrics synchronized with the music you are 
playing. This feature is only available if you subscribe to Apple Music, which 
I don't. Has anyone tried it, and does it work with a braille display?

Thanks,
Anna

SMB file sharing

2019-09-25 Thread Woody Anna Dresner
Hi,

Has anyone gotten this to work in Windows? I got it to work with my Mac, and I 
found the IPV4 address for my Windows machine. I don't get any errors when I 
try to connect my iPhone to my windows machine, but I don't see any Windows 
files or folders on my iPhone. I've tried several Google searches and some 
experimenting with no luck, and I confirmed that the iOS 13.1 manual has no 
information about this

Thanks for any help,
Anna

magic 8 ball app free for a limited time

2019-03-18 Thread Woody Anna Dresner
Hi,

If you want something silly, there's an app called Modern Magic 8 Ball that is 
free at the moment. You ask a yes or no question, double-tap the button or 
shake your phone, and get an answer. The app description specifically mentioned 
VoiceOver, and it is indeed accessible. There's also an Apple Watch app, and 
it's accessible as well. So you never have to be without goofy fortune telling. 
LOL You can get it at
https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/modern-magic-8-ball/id1381145384?mt=8

Enjoy,
Woody

Tapping solution app

2018-10-25 Thread Woody Anna Dresner
Hi,

I thought those of you interested in meditation apps might want to know that an 
app was released today that walks you through EFT tapping. This is a process of 
focusing on issues such as stress or pain while tapping places on your body 
that help you release the pain or stress. You can also focus on positive 
emotions while tapping with the intent to increase their strength. There was an 
Eyes-Free Fitness podcast about tapping a couple of years ago, and I would 
imagine it's still available.

The app is called The Tapping Solution. It includes explanations of how to tap 
and a fair amount of free content. Some items aren't labeled very clearly, and 
the subscription screen is confusing, but otherwise, I found it quite 
accessible. There is extra free content for teachers and veterans.

Enjoy,
Anna

10% Happier meditation app much more accessible than before

2018-09-14 Thread Woody Anna Dresner
Hello,

A few days ago, we were talking about meditation apps, and I mentioned 10% 
Happier. They released an update today that fixes a lot of accessibility 
issues. I haven't played with it long enough to know whether everything is 
accessible, but it's definitely much easier to see what courses are available, 
choose one, and choose a particular meditation. I'm thrilled that the 
developers are taking accessibility seriously.

Best,
Anna

BARD books won't work in Voice Dream Reader. It's just offered as an option

Hello Max,

Go to Settings/General/Accessibility/Speech  and turn Speak Screen off. Then 
the bar will go away and stay away.

Re: question about the iPhone X

2018-03-22 Thread Woody Anna Dresner
Hi Arlene,

There are several new gestures that perform functions that were performed with 
the Home button on previous phones. Some functions are taken over by the side 
button. There are AppleVis podcasts that explain the differences. I'm pretty 
sure David Woodbridge did some on his iSee podcast as well, and Jonathan Mosen 
demonstrates them on his Blind Side podcast.

Best,
Anna

Re: Question Regarding AirPods

2018-03-21 Thread Woody Anna Dresner
Hi James,

When you connect AirPods with one device, they are automatically paired with 
any other recent Apple devices on your account. You still have to use Bluetooth 
Settings or AirPlay to connect them when you switch from one iPhone or iPad to 
another, however.

If you have a non-Apple device or one that is too old to be paired 
automatically, such as an iPHone 5s, you can still pair by keeping the case 
closed, pressing the button on the back of the case for several seconds, and 
pairing as you would other devices.

Best,
Anna

In BARD Mobile, choose the bookshelf from which you want to delete books, such

It depends on the app. With the music app, you can delete individual albums and

both. Double-tap the app you're interested in and see what the options are.

Re: Help Needed with Screen Recording not Capturing Audio

2018-03-05 Thread Woody Anna Dresner
Hi alan,

I'm sorry you couldn't get enough volume on the 7 to make a good recording. I 
was getting similar performance on the X and the 5s, though I didn't do all 
that much with either one. Given that, I would have expected performance to be 
more consistent. I'm glad you were able to fix the problewm with the app at 
least. And now you know more than you ever wanted to about screen recording. LOL

All the best,
Anna

Hi Alan,

Try turning up the volume while VoiceOver is speaking through the earpiece. You 
probably can't get it as loud as would be ideal, but you may be able to get it 
to a tolerable level. That was my experience.

Hi Tom,

Screen Recording is an app you can access through control Center, but you need 
to make it visible first. To do that, go to Settings//Control center, choose 
Customize Controls, and choose Insert Screen Recording.

Hi Alan,

I have an iPhone X. I didn't have a luck-up when I turned on the mic. When I do 
a recording, VoiceOver gets quieter; I think it goes to the earpiece - but it 
doesn't stop altogether. I tried the same thing with a 5s and had the same 
results. Maybe try restarting your phone to see if you'll have better luck.

Best,
Anna

Hi alan,

It sounds like the mic was off during the recording. To turn it on, press hard 
on the Screen Recording button if you have 3D Touch, or double-tap and hold it, 
flick to Open Controls, and double-tap. You'll be able to turn the mic on on 
the screen that opens. Once it's on, it should be on for all future recordings 
unless you turn it off.

Best,
Anna

Hello Ian,

Yes, I wrote a book on the Apple Watch for National Braille Press. I would 
imagine you can order one from the Apple website or Apple store app, or buy it 
from an Apple store. some U.S. stores like Best Buy also have them, so there 
may be U.k. electronics stores that have them as well.

Best,
Anna

Try restarting both the watch and phone. If that doesn't help, reset network

Re: Getting iPhone battery replaced

2018-02-13 Thread Woody Anna Dresner
Hi Kathy,

I've heard that the wait time is long. I would go into Background App Refresh 
settings and turn off any apps that you don't want to work in the background. 
Also, go to location Services and turn off apps that don't need to know your 
location. Make sure the ones that do only use it when you're using the app, 
except weather apps. Check Battery settings to see if any apps are using a lot 
of battery, and if so, remove them from the app switcher when you're done using 
them. You could also use low power mode at least some of the time.

I hope these suggestions help.

Best,
Anna

guide to braille on the iPHone

2018-02-08 Thread Woody Anna Dresner
Hello,

I just looked at this guide, and it was last updated about a year ago. Major 
changes were made to braille input in iOS 11, so I wouldn't use that article as 
a guide. I believe AppleVis talks about changes to braille in their iOS 11 
coverage, and Jonathan Mosen deals with it in iOS Without the Eye.

To answer the earlier question, dot 7 is Backspace, and dot 8 is Enter. Editing 
is now much like editing on other devices; you can make the changes you want 
and usually don't have characters mis-translated.

Best,
Anna

Re: writing links in contracted Braille

2018-02-07 Thread Woody Anna Dresner
Hi Lynn,

How you write links depends on which braille code you are using. If you use 
UEB, dots 256 will be interpreted as a period. If you are using the older Grade 
2, it will be interpretted as dd. In that code, type a dot 4 and then the 
computer braille symbol. So period would be dot 4 followed by dots 46. Slash 
would be dot 4 and then dots 34.

HTH,
Qnna

Re: Six Dot Braille Question

2018-02-05 Thread Woody Anna Dresner
Hello Lynn,

Are you writing on a braille display or using the onscreen braille keyboard? 
You can change the defaults for both in Braille Settings in VoiceOVer SEttings. 
 If you're using a display, use dots 2-3-6-chord (a low-cell 8) to toggle 
between contracted, six-dot, and eight-dot braille. If you're using the 
onscreen keyboard, flick left or right with three fingers to switch between 
contracted and six-dot braille.

Best,
Anna

Hi Nancy,

The phone app has five tabs, and the fourth is Keypad. Double-tap the Keypad 
button at the bottom of the screen to make the numbers appear.

Re: apple watch and heart rate measure

2018-01-24 Thread Woody Anna Dresner
Hi Marie and all,

The Apple Watch manual says heart rate measurements may be less reliable during 
swimming workouts. If I remember right, the watch doesn't automatically track 
heart rate during swimming workouts for that reason, though you can turn 
monitoring on if you wish.

Best,
Anna

Hi Sarai,

I'm glad it's working. YOu don't have to move your finger up one edge. Just
