Re: YoutubeTV how to record a series on apple tv

[Jim Portillo]

I could be wrong, but I believe YouTube TV is what does the recording. I have a couple series being recorded currently.

Re: The Accessibility of a Particular Metronome iPhone App

Uncertain About Language Setting

I thought I read something on this list that there is a new VO command to 
toggle between VoiceOver languages. Is this true? Otherwise, I have put the 
Spanish voice language on the roter. If there is a new way of doing this, I’d 
like to know. I’ve not had a lot of time to keep up with the new settings and 
commands these past couple mon ths. 

Issue with Signing Into Google Apps on the iPhone

[Jim Portillo]

Hi everyone,

Here's an interesting issue I'm not able to work around, and I've tried a
few things.

I upgraded to the new iPhone 15 Pro at the end of September, and I really
like how it's working. 

I tried signing into YouTube TV on my app. I had to sign into my google
account. When I entered my password, it went to a new Two-step
Authentication process, which doesn't seem to work at all. It told me to
open the google app and tap "yes" on a message that would pop up. I also
noticed that if I told it to "re-send", the button was unavailable. That's
what VoiceOver said.\

There was nothing in the google app when I opened itup. Then again, I hadn't
signed into my google account there yet. I thought perhaps it would work
better if I actually signed into my google account on the google app. It did
the same thing. I was signing up, and it told me to open my google app and
tap something there. It's weird and hard to open an app that you're already
trying to sign into for a two-step authentication.

Now, in the two-step process, there was another option to get the code or
message a different way, so I tried doing that and choosing to get a
verification code by text via my phone. However, I was told that the option
was unavailable because there were stronger ways of signing in, and it
basically took me back to getting the message from the actual Google app.

Oh, I also tried signing into Google using Safari, and it gave me the same
message about opening the Google app and tapping on something in that
message.

So basically, I'm not able to sign into any of my Google apps on my new
phone because of this two-step process. I wouldn't mind the process, but I
need to actually get into what they want.

Any ideas?

Thanks for any help or advice.

Jim

Does anyone use OoTunes

[Jim Portillo]

Howdy,
Does anyone still use the OoTunes radio app? I still like it but ran into a 
problem.
I upgraded to a new phone a week ago today! Wow! Anyway, for some reason, I 
thought my settings and things like favorite stations and such would transfer 
over, but they didn’t. Yet, I remember that when my iPad got set up, it had the 
same stations. Anyway, does anyone know why this is? I basically have to redo 
my whole app because no settings got transferred, unless I can somehow get the 
settings from my iPad. Any ideas?

RE: Tracking distance walked

On a holster on my hip, or sometimes in my pocket.

I was bummed because there was a weekend where I had gone on vacation 
somewhere, and my apple watch wasn’t working for some reason, but my phone was. 
I had walked about a million steps during those couple days, but they never 
registered.

RE: Apple Watch face input wanted

[Jim Portillo]

Does anyone know the default face? I was having issues with one of the faces at 
one time and after all the playing around I did, I realized that the default 
one worked fine for what I needed. Now, I can't find it or don't remember what 
it is.

I used to use the Modular, but ever since Apple added the Infograph I have been 
using it as it offers the most complications.
Of course you could use 2 or 3 watch faces and arrange them so that the main 
one is in the middle and you either swipe left or right to get to the other two 
which could be set up for more specific things like Health/workout or home 
automation, but I prefer to have most of what I want on one complication which 
for me includes of course the time, sunrise/sunset, battery status, heart rate, 
the workout app and a few other apps like Apple Home and the one for my store's 
alarm system.

Malcolm,
Thank you very much. I don’t know why it didn’t occur to me to try and do a 
hard reset on the watch. I think that is what it is called. Anyway, it worked

Thanks again.

Apple Watch no longer speaks or makes sounds

[Jim Portillo]

Hello everyone,
I’ve never had problems with my Apple Watch, but yesterday, in the middle of 
the afternoon, I felt it do some kind of hectic thing on my wrist. I thought 
perhaps I was getting a text or mail or some thing, so I checked it. It no 
longer spoke nor made any kind of noise.
 I know it still works because it still vibrates, but there’s no way of fixing 
it.  I don’t know if it is VoiceOver or something else. I went to my settings 
and messed with that, but nothing different happened. Line does anyone have any 
idea of what could be happening? The battery is completely charged, and it 
still does not speak or make any noise.
Thanks

Braille screen input is definitely flaky in this iOS release. I have a similar 
experience to what you describe where suddenly bsi will just turn itself off in 
the middle of brailling. Also it seems I can't use tabletop mode at all. The 
letters just will not form correctly.

Well, there is one other thing that I've been told about now.

For some weird reason, sometimes, calls I receive don't register. Several times 
during convention, and again yesterday, people have told me that they tried 
calling me but that it went to voicemail. Most of the time, I don't even hear 
the phone ring, and the actual call doesn't register.

Now yesterday, I did hear someone try calling me but when I tried answering, it 
was as though nobody was calling. Very strange stuff going on. And, it doesn’t 
happen with all calls. I haven’t messed with any settings that I know of, and I 
have been using my phone as I always do. Very strange.

Good morning,

For a few weeks now, I have been dealing with a very annoying issue on my 
phone. When I do something like swipe or other Voiceover gestures with my 
finger, things start out OK, but after a few instances, there is a sort of jump 
or crash that takes me one layer back or to the very top of where I started, 
and I need to start over again. It is annoying when I’m looking at something 
like a website or Social Media and then the jump happens.

Also, when I input text using Braille mode, I won’t get more than two sentences 
into what I’m writing, and then it jumps and changes modes, making me need to 
go back to the rotar and go back to Braille mode. 

I don’t think that speed has much to do with what’s going on, but I’ve tried 
slowing down, which doesn’t always work for me. I just know that something’s 
got to give because this continuous jumping around or going back a page or 
layer doesn’t make me productive at all!

Has this happened to anyone else? What might be happening here, and what can I 
try to fix it? I’ve not seen this behavior until a few weeks ago.

RE: iPhone not responding well to my touch gestures

[Jim Portillo]

Hi there,

It is not part of the case. It is glued to the phone.

Like I’ve said, I’d be surprised if it is the screen protector. I remember 
getting it as soon as I got the phone, and I’ve never had issues with it. I 
keep things clean, and if a cleaning needs to happen, I take care of it right 
away.

Hi Jim,

 

This may not be the issue, but what type of screen protector do you have? Is it 
part of a case, or is it glued onto the iPhone screen? The reason I am asking 
is because I have  a friend who had the issue you are describing, and her 
screen protector was part of the case. When I took the case apart, yikes! was 
there a mess under it. It was sticky and dusty. Once I cleaned it up and put it 
back together, it worked.

 

Good Luck!

Screen protectors can cause the lack of sensitivity you are describing.

Yes sir. I have cleaned my screen a couple times, because I don’t like having 
dirty hands when I use my phone. I know it happens, so I try and keep it clean. 
I believe I’m using a screen protecter, but I’d have to check. I’ve had this 
phone for about four years, so I honestly don’t remember. 

Two things, Have you cleaned your screen lately and do you use a screen 
protector?

A dirty screen can have all sorts of weird effects and if you have screen 
protector which is maybe not very good any more can also have negative effects.

Subject: iPhone not responding well to my touch gestures

 

Good morning,

For a few weeks now, I have been dealing with a very annoying issue on my 
phone. When I do something like swipe or other Voiceover gestures with my 
finger, things start out OK, but after a few instances, there is a sort of jump 
or crash that takes me one layer back or to the very top of where I started, 
and I need to start over again. It is annoying when I’m looking at something 
like a website or Social Media and then the jump happens.

Also, when I input text using Braille mode, I won’t get more than two sentences 
into what I’m writing, and then it jumps and changes modes, making me need to 
go back to the rotar and go back to Braille mode. 

I don’t think that speed has much to do with what’s going on, but I’ve tried 
slowing down, which doesn’t always work for me. I just know that something’s 
got to give because this continuous jumping around or going back a page or 
layer doesn’t make me productive at all!

Has this happened to anyone else? What might be happening here, and what can I 

RE: iPhone not responding well to my touch gestures

[Jim Portillo]

Sure.

I’ve done the resets and such. I literally do a reset rather than shut it down.

After you hit edit, you have to hit the select all button at the top left, then 
you can delete everything. Hope this helps.

Regarding updating a contact

[Jim Portillo]

Good morning,

A few times now, when I’ve gone into the Messages app to text someone, I will 
sometimes get the notification that the person has a new or updated name or 
picture. I am told I could activate it, and I figure that by double-tapping 
with one finger, it will either update or give me the choice to update. Nothing 
really happens when I do that. Am I missing something, or does it automatically 
update my contact somehow?

I have no idea if I’m making sense. If not, I apologize. 

Jim

Worry About iPhone and Radio Streaming

[Jim Portillo]

Hi everyone,
Here's something I've begun noticing over the past three days
regarding my phone, and it concerns me.
When I try streaming different radio stations, my phone starts out
doing fine, but then it either pauses the streaming for a bit or it
completely stops as though it loses connection or something.
I've tried it with the OoTunes app first. Then, I went to TuneIn and
tried streaming a couple different stations and get similar results.
Right now, I am streaming one that isn't doing the pausing as much,
but it is still doing it some. It just did it as I typed about it.

I've tried this same streaming experiment on my iPad and don't seem to
have any issues there.
Any idea what could be happening on my phone?
I don't know if I could stream radio stations on my watch, as I've not
tried it. Again, so far, this has been with stations on both Ootunes
and TuneIn.
Pretty weird!
Jim

A song and a playlist

[Jim Portillo]

Good morning,
Recently, I was sent an email, and there was a particular song attached that I 
had requested from somebody. It is in the M4a format.
I would like to find a way of adding this particular song to a playlist I have 
in my Apple music app. Is there a way of easily doing this directly from my 
phone?
I tried saving it to my phone, but I really didn’t know where to save it. I 
would definitely like this particular song in my playlist, and I don’t believe 
it is in Apple Music itself.
Any suggestions??
Jim

Can you ask Siri to turn VoiceOver

If it says VoiceOver is already
on, then try a three finger double tap to unmute VoiceOver.

Hey all,



First, thank you guys for the
number for Apple accessibility. That problem is fixed. Now,
however, my new iPhone has completely frozen. No voiceover,
no sound, but the home button still feels like I can push
it. I’m guessing the power is still on? I have no idea
what to do. I had just finished using Facebook messenger.
The old phone that I’m using at the moment still works.
Any help would be very much appreciated.

These SE phones have a unique problem that doesn't seem to affect the more expensive phones. It was worse with my S E2, but it has happened twice with this one. It usually happens when a phone call ends, perhaps Facebook messenger would have the same problem. The thing just locks up. VoiceOver won't say anything, and it is not the volume having droped. It seems to be the worst if  I  am using my wired earpods, but I have had it happen with other headphones, too, and even when it is on its speaker. I have used vareaous fixes to get it going again. Sometimes, I  can turn voiceOver off and on again and it will start working again. Other times, locking the screen for a few minutes will fix it. Sometimes, telling siri to call a phone number will straighten it out. The problem has something to do with the phone call disconnecting, making another phone call fixes it. As I say, this stuff seems only to affect the s E phones. It can go for days, and various phone calls with no problem. As with any problem, Apple would have to have one of them in front of them exhibiting the problem before they ever could investigate it.

Re: An issue switching to a new iPhone

[Jim Jones]

No, it is turned off. All I had to do was call Apple accessibility, and switch voices in voiceover. Now it’s working fine. However, my App Store apps are not showing up. You know how after it says, personalized recommendations, it should give you a whole list of apps that have been updated recently? It gives me the sign out button, no updated recently list, and no available updates list. I can see them on my old phone, but not the new one. Jim JonesSent from my iPhonecassie1...@gmail.comOn Dec 10, 2022, at 10:37 AM, Sieghard Weitzel  wrote:

I’ve already gone through the update screen, everything transferred over correctly, when I’m on my home screen, I could go to calendar, and instead of staying Saturday, December 10, it just says, calendar. Even
 after I made sure screen recognition was off. When I’m trying to back out of something, such as settings, it might say the word settings at the top left, but it won’t say back button. I’ve never had this problem before.

Thank you for the suggestions. I made sure screen recognition was turned off, I’m waiting for a callback from XFinity to see if they have to do anything on their end. It’s still talking gibberish. It sounds
 like it says something about update, and a bunch of other stuff. The software is up-to-date.

Subject: An issue switching to a new iPhone


 
Hi all, 
I hardly ever post here, but I’ve got an interesting problem. I’m upgrading from an iPhone SE 2020 to an SE 2022. It seems like the transferring went well, but I can’t find the Alex voice for Voice Over, and the new iPhone speaks jibberish
 sometimes. 
Also, if I’m swiping around the home screen, and say I land on Calendar, all it says is the word Calendar, and not the date or the day.

Could it be that I just need to leave the phones alone for awhile, or is something wrong? I’ve switched the Sim card from the 2020 to the 2022 before I set the phone up.

Thanks for any help here.

Re: An issue switching to a new iPhone

[Jim Jones]

I’ve already gone through the update screen, everything transferred over correctly, when I’m on my home screen, I could go to calendar, and instead of staying Saturday, December 10, it just says, calendar. Even after I made sure screen recognition was off. When I’m trying to back out of something, such as settings, it might say the word settings at the top left, but it won’t say back button. I’ve never had this problem before.Jim JonesSent from my iPhonecassie1...@gmail.comOn Dec 10, 2022, at 9:39 AM, Richard Turner  wrote:If Xfinity cannot fix it, you may need to try Apple Accessibility, but it sounds like you are maybe in that update screen where you have to pick your language, I always just double tap where it says jibberish and usually I get English and go from there. If not, at least Apple Accessibility may be able to ping you to set up a screen share, so they could talk you through where to touch, etc.I am guessing you already have their number as you sound like an experienced user, but here it is just in case: 877-204-3930 HTH,   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 From: viphone@googlegroups.com  On Behalf Of Jim JonesSent: Saturday, December 10, 2022 9:31 AMTo: viphone@googlegroups.comSubject: Re: An issue switching to a new iPhone Thank you for the suggestions.

RE: Regarding Audio Playing When I Don't Want

[Jim Portillo]

Thanks Sieghard and Julian for these good suggestions,
Believe it or not, the famous Magic Tap doesn't always do the trick either, 
which is why I resort to going back to the app. But, yes, you are right that 
that gesture does a lot, and I use it quite often!
I guess I will have to write Accessibility, as you mentioned.
Thanks again!
Jim

Hi Jim,

You should be able to stop playback with a 2-finger double tap and there should 
be no need to remember what app you many have to open to stop it.
But yes, I have had this problem even in iOS 15 especially when using the 
2-finger double tap magic tap) to start/stop dictation. This gesture is 
supposed to do quite a few different things depending on the context, e.g. if 
the phone rings it should pick up the call, if music is playing it should stop 
playback, if you are in an edit field it should start dictation and as you are 
dictating it should stop dicatation. It seems to be a bit like iOS is confused 
as to what the gesture should do inb certain situations which is why instead of 
stopping dictation it starts playback.
You need to write to accessibil...@apple.com and report this so they can start 
figuring out how to fix this.


Best regards,
Sieghard

Greetings,
This has been an issue that has been happening for a little while, but it is really beginning to annoy me. I’m not quite sure how to describe it.
I listen to music with the Apple music app. I also have the OoTunes radio app and listen to stations there, along with other radio apps. When I’m done with whatever radio or music app I’m using, I’ll stop whatever is playing and close the
 app.
I could be doing something else on my phone, or maybe even just accidentally bumping the phone, and suddenly, the music or radio from the app comes back up playing. It is really annoying because since the app is technically closed, I have

Regarding Audio Playing When I Don't Want

[Jim Portillo]

Greetings,

This has been an issue that has been happening for a little while, but it is 
really beginning to annoy me. I’m not quite sure how to describe it.

I listen to music with the Apple music app. I also have the OoTunes radio app 
and listen to stations there, along with other radio apps. When I’m done with 
whatever radio or music app I’m using, I’ll stop whatever is playing and close 
the app.

I could be doing something else on my phone, or maybe even just accidentally 
bumping the phone, and suddenly, the music or radio from the app comes back up 
playing. It is really annoying because since the app is technically closed, I 
have to remember which app it is, open it, stop whatever is playing and close 
down the app again.

Sometimes, I might be in an app where I may want to dictate something, and if I 
do a two finger double-tap, the music or radio app might sometimes come up 
again.

I’ve noticed it happening more lately.

Any idea what could be going on and how I can keep these apps from coming up at 
any time

This seems to happen when I’m the most careful. 

Thanks.

Telegram Messaging App

[Jim Portillo]

Good morning everyone,

 

Recently, someone mentioned something to me called Telegram. From what I’ve 
read, it is some sort of Messaging service. Has anyone used it, or could anyone 
give me more information about it?

I’m a bit concerned about its accessibility with VoiceOver. I tried going into 
it and creating what I thought might be an account, and it really didn’t read 
things very well. At one point, I figured that there was a box where one 
entered a phone number. It was a bit clumsy after that, but I think I created 
an account or whatever it’s called.

Now, I need to know how and why to use it.  

Thanks much.

Jim

Any thoughts on the iPhone 14 or 14 Pro?

[Jim Portillo]

Good morning, everyone -

 

I'm seriously considering taking advantage of upgrading my phone. I have the
iPhone 12, which is paid for, free and clear. However, there are a few
issues I'm finding a bit disconcerting with the phone these days. Since I
have the opportunity to at least look at upgrading, I might do that.

I'm with AT

Does anyone have thoughts on either the iPhone 14 or 14 pro? For those who
have either phone, how do you like them?

I've never really had issues with any of my phones, and I hope to continue
this streak if I do upgrade.

Also, I'm wondering what is better. Should I go through the Apple Store and
get a trade-in, or should I go through my carrier? I'm still doing all of
the necessary research.

Anyway, thanks for any info you could give me on advantages or disadvantages
of the new iPhone 14.

Jim

Dealing with QR Codes

[Jim Portillo]

Good evening,
I was recently in a couple situations where friends asked if I could deal with 
QR codes when it came to things like reading restaurant menus. I guess more and 
more places are going that way, where people can see the menus by activating a 
QR code.
As many years as I’ve owned an iPhone, I’m embarrassed to say that I’ve never 
played or dealt with QR codes and was wondering from you guys how easy or 
accessible they were.
What would be a good QR code app? Would I just use my camera, or are there 
better ways and apps?
I’m going on vacation in a few days and from what I understand, a few of the 
places I’ll be eating at have these sorts of menus
Frankly, it’s probably good that I learn more about using QR codes anyway.
Recommendations?
Jim

A concern about iPhone 12 and battery

[Jim Portillo]

Greetings,
I have noticed lately that the battery on my iPhone 12 seems to hold a charge 
for less period of time than before. I realize that I use my phone a lot, but 
it seems as though I have to charge it much more than before. I don’t use any 
new apps that would take up a lot of battery, and I close the apps that I 
frequently use. Also, I noticed that there are more times these days where my 
phone gets warm, we are as I don’t think I have noticed that before. There are 
times when it actually gets hot.
Should I be concerned with more charges, and the battery going down faster than 
before? Should I be concerned regarding the warmth or heat of my phone at times?
My iPhone is right at two years old. I got it October, 2020. I definitely 
qualify for an upgrade now, and I am wondering if this might be a sign to look 
at something new.
I am going on vacation next week, and I want my phone to behave and keep a 
battery charge for a while. I don’t want to go from 100% charge in the morning 
to less than 30% charge f five or six hours later, when the phone is hardly 
being used. This is not normal for me.
Any thoughts?
Jim

Question about audio text messages

[Jim Portillo]

Greetings,

I have a question about recording audio in the messages app. I was in the 
Messages app and wanted to record an audio text message to someone. I recorded 
the audio, which was two minutes and 38 seconds. I listened to it and then hit 
send. I looked back a little while after, and there is no sign that anything 
got sent. What might’ve happened? Or, did it get sent and I just won’t know? It 
was fairly important.
Thank you much.

Syncing Contacts from Facebook?

[Jim Portillo]

Good morning,

I am trying to do something, but everything I've tried or googled doesn't
seem to work and always tells me the same thing. I'm wondering if I will be
able to do it or if it will no longer work because I have a much later IOS
version than 10. Even the very latest things I read on Google tell me almost
the exact same thing, but I get no results from the get-go in looking at the
settings app.

I would like to sync my Facebook contacts with my iPhone contacts. I'd like
to sync the photos and pertinent information for them.

Everything I've googled tells me to make sure I'm logged into my Facebook
app (which I am), go to settings, and under facebook, look for the "Update
all Contacts" or something to that effect, once I have the app enabled to
access contacts and calendars. Well, I have that option enabled, but I don't
see anything that tells me I can update the contacts. 

Then, it tells me that I can use a third party app as an alternative to also
do what I want. But, the apps they mention are either outdated or don't let
me get far. It kept talking about one called Sync.me and another one called
FaceSync, but that second one won't work past IOS 10. I used to use a great
one called GoSync. 

This isn't a huge deal, I guess. I just remember being able to do this back
in the day and wanted the ability to do it again. It's been a couple of
iPhones since I've done it.;

Any ideas?

Jim

Screen Shots please

[Jim Portillo]

Hi there,

I'm kind of in need of a quick answer of how one takes a screenshot on the
iPhone. I just can't remember and need to have it done. I tried the volume
up/down together, and that didn't work or the volume keys and the side key,
and that didn't work either. Any help is appreciated.

RE: Identifying labels when making a contact

[Jim Portillo]

Agreed, Richard. And now, you’ve got a personal cell, a work cell, etc.

Recently, they did away with our actual office phones and are making us do this 
new telephone thing via our computers using Teams. And, it will forward to our 
work cell phones as well.

I actually still have a land line, only because it wasn’t going to cost extra 
to keep it or save me any money to get rid of it. Go figure. I get both my land 
line and internet through my phone company.

Sadly Sieghard, too many times these days Work phones and home phones are cell 
phones.  Fewer and fewer of our friends are keeping a landline, and their work 
phone is often a cell phone also.  That was true for me before I retired.  We 
have kept our landline because I don’t want to be in a bind and find the cell 
service is down or the battery is down, etc.

Subject: RE: Identifying labels when making a contact

 

It also depends on which method you use for your Contacts, e.g. iCloud, 
Outlook.com, Exchange, Gmail etc.

Yes, there are some labels which appear outdated as Richard said, but I don't 
think I ever encountered the issue that when I shared a Contact with somebody 
that the label was changed and in my opinion they are important especially if 
you have multiple numbers for a contact, e.g. Work, Mobile, Home etc. 

I do also agree with what Richard said about Apple not having paid much 
attention to this and neither has Apple been paying attention to the phone app. 
For as long as I have an iPhone which now is 12 years or so I wish that you 
could filter your recent calls not only by "All" and "Missed", but also by 
"Incoming", "Outgoing" and by a custom search filter, e.g. you type in a 
particular name or phone number and see only the calls from that person/number. 
Furthermore I wish that if one would then choose to select all and delete, that 
only the visible results would be deleted. Currently you can either delete 
individual calls or you can completely clear your recent calls list, it makes 
no difference if you choose to show only missed calls and then select to clear 
them, it still clears the entire call list.

I have put this in as a suggestion a few times over the years, but apparently I 
am the only one who would find this useful and it would probably not be very 
difficult for Apple to implemenbt this.

 

As for the labels there is one other issue which bugs me a lot and that is the 
following scenario:

 

1. Assume you have a contact called John Smith and you have a work phone, home 
phone, a fax number and a mobile number for that person

2. I now say to SIRI "Message John Smith" and I am not specifying "mobile"

3. SIRI will ask "Which of these should I use for John Smith, work phone, home 
phone, fax number or mobile"

 

It is of course completely ridiculous why SIRI should ask this because you 
typically can't send a text message to a landline, e.g. work or home phone and 
you definitely can't send a text message to a fax number.

And if you also have an email address added to the contact, e.g. 
johnsm...@gmail.com  , SIRI often also includes 
this in the list. Of course I can still understand it since if somebody has 
iMessage enabled you can send an iMessage to their email address, then at best 
it should ask if you want to use "Mobile or email". It's just another way where 
SIRI falls short of what it should be after 11 years of being around.

At least it seems Apple has finally made SIRI smart enough where you can add a 
Contact with just a company name in the Company name field, e.g. Apple 
Accessibility, and then say "Call Apple Accessibility". Until maybe last year 
you always had to also add the company name either in the first name or last 
name field if you wanted to ask SIRI to call it or else it would not find it.

The Contact labels are a joke, and have been a joke for as long as I have had 
an iPhone. 

when was the last time you knew someone with a Radio phone, or a car phone, or 
a pager?  And, the iPhone label is there sometimes and not others.  There is a

RE: the Instant Pot bluetooth app works again.

I hate to bring this up again, but I wonder if the app is no longer updateable 
again.
I tried updating the app two different days, and both days, it said that the 
app couldn't connect to the app store. I have a Done buttor or a Retry button. 
Of course, I also have the back button to go back to My Account. The last 
update it had was July 7th.
I've been looking forward to getting this working again!

Question about Instant Pot and iPhone

[Jim Portillo]

Good morning,

 

I hope this is a good list to ask this question.

A few years ago, I got one of the first Smart Instant Pots that hooked up to
the iPhone via Bluetooth. It worked well, and while I could use it to some
extent with just the buttons, I found that being able to use it with my
phone really helped and made it easier to take advantage of its
capabilities.

Since I upgraded to my iPhone 12, I found that my Instant Pot doesn't
connect to my phone. I thought I had to re-pair it via the app, and when I
tried going that direction, either my phone or the Instant Pot didn't seem
to recognize one another. If there is some recognition, it is only for an
instant, and then it goes away and I can't use the Instant Pot with the
phone.

I'm wondering what you think could be wrong, or if I should get one of the
newer ones.

I like being able to use it and set the temperatures with ease without
having to memorize and count and do all of those extra things.

This is still in good condition, except for the Bluetooth capabilities.

What are people using now? What do you guys think about the newer Smart
Instant Pots? How accessible are they? Are they worth it?

I'd like to read your thoughts before I make any decisions.

Jim

Hi Jim,

As far as accessing the favorites in StarPlayrx, it is quite simple.

After starting the app, just swipe to All Stars and double tap. This is located 
right before All Channels.
As you swipe on the next screen, you will first come to a few defaulted 
channels that are listed, but after that, you will have your list of channels 
that you have favorited within the app. Just double tap to start playing the 
favorite channel that you want.

Hope this has been helpful.

RE: looking for an accessible listing for sirius xm channels.

StarPlayrX  found in the app store,

IOS 14.5, Apple Maps and Accessing City Guides

[Jim Fettgather]

Hello to the list.

I have found that I can choose a City Guide from Apple Maps, but that when
the city guide is loaded, the 3 finger swipe up  or down does nothing, but
neither does the scroll bar, it will hot advance, even when you scroll it to
what should be continuing parts of a specific city guide, nothing happens
with Voiceover.

I do realize that not too many people may wish to access these guides, but I
sure do love reading about specific geographical locations,  so I am
wondering if anyone has worked with these city guides in Apple Maps, IOS
14.5.

Thanks.

Does this Cable for the iPhone Exist?

[Jim Fettgather]

Hi to the list.

At one time, I had a patch chord that would connect to the iPhone through a
3.5 inch adapter and then to the lightning plug through an adapter to the
output of the iPhone..

The other end of this chord was a USB connector.

This chord would somehow magically allow the iPhone to be seen as an
alternative input device, thereby allowing me to record directly from the
iPhone onto the PC using any recording program.

I have looked and looked all over Amazon, but cannot find this chord again.

As I say, it was wonderful to be able to record the audio output from the
iPhone right on to the PC.

Just curious if anyone knows about this type of chord, or what it might be
called, or does it still exist?

Any assistance appreciated!  

Thanks.

Hi, all.


My poor iPhone SE is on it's last legs, bad battery, etc.  This is the 
original SE purchased in the spring of 2017.  I'm looking at either the 
iPhone 12 Pro or the 12 Pro Max.


I like the size of the SE 2020, but I need a good battery, and it seems 
like the SE 2020 and the iPhone 12 mini fall a bit short.


What are people's experiences with the iPhone 12 Pro Max?  I know 
there's no home button, but how easy is it to unlock the screen as a 
totally blind person?  Was it difficult getting used to the larger screen?


TIA for the info.

RE: Logitech Keyboard?

[Jim Portillo]

I've been looking for something like that as well, as I absolutely loved the 
k810. I used it with three devices, and it worked just great!
I don't know much about the 780.
I wonder if it's as light and portable as the k810-811.

Actually the K810 and K811 are basically the same keyboards except that the 
K810 is set up as a Windows keyboard and the K811 was optimized for Mac OS and 
iOS.
I don't think there is always a direct successor for such items, both the K810 
and K811 I believe were able to be used with only one device, I still have a 
K811 in a drawer somewhere, but since I am now using a Logitech K780 which can 
do up to 3 devices I haven't used it in a long time. The other nice thing about 
the K780 (and I think a few other Logitech models do this) is that it has a USB 
dongle so you can use it even if your Windows computer doesn't have Bluetooth. 
I however recommend to use the dongle even if your laptop has Bluetooth as it 
is noticeable more responsive when typing then Bluetooth.

Re: air fryers

[Jim Ruby]

Hi, how do you find it works with the voice commands. For a lot of the stuff I 
was doing I could not get it to work very well and I wasn’t happy so I sent it 
back. If they’ve made improvements I might be willing to give it a second try 
but I wasn’t really happy with some of the results of this oven had.
Take for example making toast telling at the number of slices and how dark you 
want it. I know that’s just a simple thing but it is a function of the oven.
I had a hard time telling Alexa what mode and the time.
I also had ahard time finding a reference sheet of what kind of functions were 
available with Alexa and how to properly say that. So I’d be very interested in 
your experiences.

Recording Videos, IOS 14.2, X S Max

[Jim Fettgather]

Hello to the list.

All of a sudden, when I record a video,  the volume  is really really low,
and after about 20 seconds, it begins to fade up to the normal volume.

What the heck?  I wonder what could be causing this, I have been through all
of the Camera options in settings, and it is recording in stereo,  but I
cannot find any other settings that may pertain to volume levels..

Thanks for any suggestions.

RE: CBS All Access

[Jim Fettgather]

I do not know why this is, but in order to get audio description for CBS All 
Access, I must launch the All Access app  itself, it just won't come through 
Apple TV or the phone.
And I have AD turned on everywhere I know to look.

Hi John,
I am not yet subscribed to CBS All Access, although I plan to do that. Since 
this is all through Apple TV and their app, I wonder if a call to Apple 
accessibility might not be in order. It was my understanding that anything 
offered by Apple was done through Apple servers. Therefore, this might be an 
Apple issue, although I don’t know why it would work on your phone and not on 
your Apple TV. But Apple are the experts so give them a shout.

RE: Using dictation with iMessages and e-mail?

[Jim Fettgather]

Here is a thought.

If you wish to create a new paragraph, you should say New Line.

I promise.

You may want to check on this. 

Verify if the settings under accessibility then spoken content then 
pronunciation. In there check to see if there’s any word that is a substitution 
for  The word paragraph 

for example, if I created in pronunciation a  word  Let’s say “hello”  and 
substitute that word to dodo , voiceover is going to read the word paragraph 
any time it sees the word “hello” Just a thought.

If they are using line breaks, as in "new line" if punctuation is on all, maybe

That is a pure guess on my part.

RE: Apple TV and apps

[Jim Fettgather]

Hello, I do not believe that you can use Twitter or email through your Apple 
TV, but one thing that you can do, which I have done quite often is to  use 
Screen Mirroring in Control Center to Stream Facebook Live, Youtube, and any 
other apps that produce audio or video.
If you have the correct hardware, you can literally connect your phone via the 
lightning port to HDMI output to your entertainment system, this hardware is 
sometimes called an iPhone camera kit.
I have streamed to the apple tv both ways, and some apps even support airplay, 
which is also another third method for getting sound or video from your phone 
to your home theater system to Apple TV.

iPhone sanitizer

[Jim Portillo]

Good evening,

Has anyone used or does anyone currently use one of those UV Phone
sanitizers? I know they sell them at Staples, and someone wants to get me
one as a gift, but I wonder how well they work and if a blind person will be
able to use them.

Are there alternatives to the Staples ones that maybe talk or give audible
feedback?

Jim

Wondering about wireless charging

[Jim Portillo]

Hi there,

I have the new iPhone 12, and since I know the newer phones have wireless
charging, I got a magnetic charger for it.

The question is whether I need a special case for it. Otherwise, I have to
take it out of my case whenever I want to put it on that particular charger.
If so, what sort of case should I get? I have a very lightweight one that
prevents skids and is more compact and lighter than say an Otterbox.

Thanks.

Jim

RE: Buttons on new iPhone 12

[Jim Portillo]

I have a new iPhone 12, and I am not sure what you mean about the buttons. 
There’s no home button. The volume buttons are where they have always been, and 
the side button remains in its usual location.

Amazon Kindle books and best way to read

[Jim Portillo]

  Greetings,

 

I was gifted an eBook that someone really wants me to read. It's an Amazon
Kindle book. I seem to remember JAWS not doing well with such books a while
back, but I don't know if it has improved. What about on the iPhone? Is that
any better?

If anyone has any advice on how to best read this eBook, please share your
ideas.

Thanks much.

Jim

Re: Apple TV and direct touch

[Jim Fettgather]

Hello, It seems like direct touch has an effect on whether 3 different
areas are accessible or work properly.
What they are referring to as Top Shelf, then another area called
Watch Now, and finally, the typical rows and columns of the interface
containing all of your regular apps.
To add to the confusion, some third party apps, when launched, will
result in Voiceover saying, Direct Touch Area.
It sounds as if in cases such as these, there is no other choice than
to use Direct Touch.
It seems quite counter intuitive and no documentation that I have located.
Thanks.

Making sure about specific backups

[Jim Portillo]

Hi everyone,

Here's the deal. I'm about to upgrade to the new iPhone 12; however, I have
an issue. I'm using Downcast right now for my podcasts, which I have not
finished listening to yet. It would take me a while to finish, so I want to
make sure they are backed up.

When this happened a few years ago, I thought things had backed up from
Downcast, but they hadn't. How do I make sure about this before the upgrade?
Are there specific settings that will actually redownload my specific
podcasts?

The general stuff is turned on, but I'm skeptical!

If anyone knows, please share.

Jim

Creating email folders within the iPhone

[Jim Portillo]

Hello,

I was asked the following question and cannot seem to find it; although I
remember doing this years ago!

How does one create folders within one's email account on the iPhone? This
person would like to move certain messages he gets into the created folder.

He's using the native mail app on his phone with an iCloud account.

I have been hunting and hunting and can't seem to find the answer.

Anyone know?

Jim

Voicemail issue

[Jim Portillo]

I have absolutely no idea what happened, but when I updated my phone plan or
maybe when I updated my IOS version, my voicemail and mailbox got messed up,
and now I need to set it up again.

The problem is this.  I go to the setup button and it asks for a password.
In  the past, I've had a four digit password I've used, and when I've tried
entering it and hit the "done" button, it tells me that the particular
button is dimmed. I don't know how to proceed because it doesn't let me. Do
I need a larger numbered password or something different?

Can I set it up differently or from some place else?

I'm going to have the same issue when I get my 12 in a few days, but people
aren't able to leave me voice mails right now.

 

Jim

Hello Mark, Fantasy Island is definitely not listed on CBS All Access

I went to the master list of Audio Described programs on the ACB Audio
description page, which contains 7200 programs.
Here are the only two entries pertaining to Fantasy Island.
• Blumhouse's Fantasy Island
is on
DVD,
PRIME-VIDEO,
SPECTRUM-ACCESS
• Blumhouse's Fantasy Island: Unrated Edition
is on
ITUNES,
SPECTRUM-ACCESS

Sorry I could not be of more assistance.

Should I be worried about my iPhone's connection

[Jim Portillo]

Hi. I don't know if I should be worried or not regarding my phone's
connection.

Two quick incidents.

When I'm on the Facebook app, I often get a message I've not seen before. It
says the following.

"You can still post comments while offline."

 

Also, for the past several days, when trying to use AIRA anywhere, I get
very spotty connections! I either lose calls or agents tell me the video
freezes. I don't know if it's my phone or AIRA. 

I don't think I've had trouble streaming things, so maybe it's not a
connection issue, but I figured I'd ask the experts!

Jim

Inquiring about the new iWatch

[Jim Portillo]

Hi there,

 

I'd like some thoughts from anyone who has the newest Apple watch.  I'm
seriously thinking about upgrading from my current series 3.  Aside from
that, I've been having trouble upgrading to the latest watch version, which
makes me think I should upgrade anyway.

What do people like about the newer watch, and what are some of the
advantages to upgrading?  What are some disadvantages or things you've found
don't work well yet?  Is it worth the upgrade? What about VoiceOver and
accessibility issues or glitches?

I know I can get some money for my current watch and use it toward a
trade-in.

Thanks for any thoughts.

Jim

RE: Is YouTube TV VoiceOver Accessible on Apple TV? Are There Other Live Streaming TV Services You Would Recommend?

[Jim Fettgather]

AD is available, but your local channels must carry the audio description, 
since Youtube TV gets its feed directly from the channels in your specific 
market or city.

Hello, yes, Google has a pretty simple process to set up a payment method for 
any and all Google services, so it is really easy to opt out of any of them, 
but you're correct that you need a credit card on file.

your subscription for 8 weeks, or subscribe or unsubscribe, even though you 
cannot use the Apple subscription service to perform these actions. The process

Subject: Is YouTube TV VoiceOver Accessible on Apple TV? Are There Other Live

Hello Everyone,

I am thinking about subscribing to YouTube TV for use on my Apple TV device.


Does anyone know if the app is VoiceOver accessible?  

I am going to assume that if the app is VoiceOver accessible on Apple TV, then 
it will most likely be accessible on iPad OS 14; I hope.

Believe it or not, I am currently in a situation where, because of the pandemic 
lock-down, I cannot get new cable TV service installed in my home from my 
preferred cable provider.  

So, because I would very much like to have a live local TV streaming service, I 
have been researching various TV streaming services and YouTube TV seems to 
come very highly recommended.  

The only thing about YouTube TV that I don't like is that one cannot sign up 
for a subscription through Apple.  It has been my experience that, while it may 
be easy to sign up for a monthly third-party subscription, it can be much more 
difficult to unsubscribe.

I prefer to subscribe to third-party services through Apple because I know that 
I can easily unsubscribe when ready, without any hassle.

So, if anyone knows of a local live TV streaming service that allows 
subscriptions through Apple please let me know as I would greatly appreciate 
any help on this.

Thank you,

Mark

 I’m taking spanish on duolingo as well. What I did was install the spanish 
 keyboard on the iPhone. Now whenever spanish is required for entry, the 
 phone shows the spanish keyboard rather than the english one. If you are 
 entering on the onscreen keyboard, I believe you still have to use the 
 hold and slide method that others have described. However, if you are 
 using a bluetooth keyboard. There are dedicated keys for entering accents 
 and the n with tilda. 
 
 The n tilde is the key to the right of the semicolon and the acute accent 
 is the next key to the right of that one.

RE: apple music

[Jim Portillo]

Hi there.

I have a related question for anyone who might know.

I have a couple of albums on my phone which I downloaded from either iTunes or 
Apple Music. 

Recently, I purchased an album download from an artist, and that particular 
album was not on iTunes or Apple Music. I bought it from his website, and he 
gave me the link to download the album’s mp3s.

I’d like that album on my phone and in my music with my other albums.  Is this 
doable?  If so, how?

Thank you.

Jim

Starting a Movie from the Beginning in the IOS Disney app

[Jim Fettgather]

Hello to the list.

So, I have no trouble playing a movie, but cannot seem to find a way to
start the movie from the beginning.

There is a time scrubber, but every time I start swiping it, the movie
begins to play again after having been paused, and it would take 20 or 30
minutes to go 90 minutes backwards back to the beginning.  Any tips for
starting a movie from the beginning in the IOS Disney app?

Thanks. 

 

Have a great day!

Garage Band Tutorials?

[Jim Portillo]

Hi there,

I've got an iPhone XR, and I know it has Garage Band on it.  I'm looking for
any possible tutorials that can help me get started using it.  Does anyone
know of any and where I can find them?

I couldn't find any on AppleVis, but maybe I didn't see any at this time.

Thanks for any help you can provide.

Jim

Re: Logictech K380 question

[Jim Portillo]

Hi Richard,
Use one of the first three function keys.  Press one of those keys for a couple 
of seconds, and then things should be recognized by the phone or apple device. 
Your client will have to type a code on the keyboard and hit enter, and then it 
will be paired.
Hope this helps.
Jim

RE: Does anyone else lose voice over after they listen to a voicemail?

For whatever reason, if I use a wired headset, I do not lose Voiceover after 
hearing a Voicemail.
It is still a nasty bug though, and I have written to Apple Accessibility.

RE: apple's equivalent of the echo

Nothing compares to the actual audio produced by the Homepod, nothing.

Except maybe for the Amazon Studio Speaker.

The Amazon devices certainly have a few more skills, no doubt about it, but 
Homepod sounds fantastic, far better than most Amazon devices.

RE: Audio Routing Location

[Jim Fettgather]

Hello, so when you have audio destination selected in the rotor, it only 
appears when you are playing audio or video, when there is an alternative

When you select audio destination, you can flick up or down to select the 
destinations.

This is my understanding, I hope it makes sense.

Audio Destination in the Rotor

[Jim Fettgather]

Hello to the list.

I have made certain that audio destination is selected in the Voiceover
rotor, 13.4.1.  .

However, it never shows up.

Not for any situation under any scenario.

So, even though I consider myself to be a pretty decent and knowledgeable
Voiceover user, I am stumped, and could use some hints.

Thanks a lot 

 

Have a great day!

Does anyone use the ABC Group app

[Jim Portillo]

Good evening,
I just learned about the ABC group app and downloaded.  I’m creating groups, 
and love the ability to have groups I can text.  Here’s a question though.  Is 
there a way for the group of people that I created not to see one another’s 
phone numbers when I text them?  Or, if I use the option of using first and 
last names in place of phone numbers, will they see them as well?  Still 
figuring everything out here.

iPhone and speaker

[Jim Portillo]

Good afternoon,

I hope everyone is doing well and staying healthy.
Could someone verify for me that iPhones can naturally go from hand
held to speaker?  In other words, if I'm holding it up to my ear,
can't I automatically put it down and it will automatically go to
speaker mode?
I've been looking at settings and can't really find anything.  And, as
long as I have had an iPhone, I don't remember needing to set this
feature.  Any help would be appreciated.
Jim

RE: using the spectrum app on apple tv

Hi Larry,

I love using the Spectrum app on the iPad or iPhone, it is wonderfully

I still have the third generation Apple TV, do not have a fourth generation 
Apple TV, but I found this article on spectrum.net that looked pretty good and 
may be helpful.

Re: Keyboard is locked!

[Jim Portillo]

Thanks, Richard.  It ended up not being sticky keys.  It was the Modifier keys 
being locked.  I had no idea what to do, but I accidentally pressed something 
which unlocked it.  This has been a weird experience, because it was an iPhone 
setting.  I say that because I tried using another external keyboard with the 
same results.  Now, things seem to be working OK with the modifier keys being 
unlocked.

Keyboard is locked!

[Jim Portillo]

Hi there,

I don’t know what I did today, but while using my Bluetooth keyboard on my 
iPhone, I somehow locked it. It said something about sticky keys being locked. 
I’ve tried everything I know to do, but I don’t know how to unlock it and can 
no longer use my keyboard on my phone without it doing weird things. Any ideas?

Jim

RE: Apple Music VO navigation

[Jim Fettgather]

You are right about the headings, that does not work.

When I flick down, I hear Cap A, selected.

Cap B, selected.

But it goes through the entire alphabet.

I am disappointed and mystified, from your description, I cannot tell why it is 
stopping after just 3 letters.

I will try this on other devices, and see if I can replicate the same annoying 
behavior that you are describing.

Thanks for your prompt reply. That is the right side that I spoke about. I can 
only flick through about two or three letters before I get that sound saying 
that I cannot go down anymore. I also tried the headings rotor gesture which 
did not work either.

There is apparently another way that,  for me, works just as well.

If you touch the very right edge of the screen, you should hear Voiceover say, 
Section Index, Adjustable.

You may then flick up and down through the letters of the alphabet, and 
hopefully, your rotor will automatically adjust to a setting called Adjust

This took a bit of getting used to,  but I can navigate by Artist, Album, or

Hope this helps.

Hello good people,

 

 

I signed up for a free month trial of Apple Music yesterday. I moved all of my 
playlists and favorite artists with an internet service. In the library tab in 
the bottom left corner. When I go to the right side of the page that has the 
letters from A to Z going down the page. I cannot use the flick gesture to go 
past the C. I can use the three finger swipe down to go from page to page but 
that of course does not tell me where I am on the page. I called Apple 
Voiceover desk and they escalated the issue. I wanted to know if anyone else is 
having this issue. I have had Spotify for years and wanted to give Apple Music 
and try Since I haven’t used it since the launch.

playlists and favorite artists with an internet service. In the library tab in 
the bottom left corner. When I go to the right side of the page that has the 
letters from A to Z going down the page. I cannot use the flick gesture to go 
past the C. I can use the three finger swipe down to go from page to page but 
that of course does not tell me where I am on the page. I called Apple 
Voiceover desk and they escalated the issue. I wanted to know if anyone else is 
having this issue. I have had Spotify for years and wanted to give Apple Music 
and try Since I haven’t used it since the launch.

RE: Sharing A Book

[Jim Fettgather]

This may not be good news, as most books from the iBooks store are copy 
protected with DRM when you purchase them, making it not possible to share them.
I don't think there is a way to do this, even though the book is offered for 
free right now.
Thanks.

Subject: Sharing A Book

Hi,
Some years ago I decided to learn about Macs, so I went to the iBooks store and 
bought Tim Snipfen’s book entitled Mastering The Macintosh With VoiceOver.
The book is still on my iPhone and I refer to it from time to time. Anyway, I 
just started working with a new student and told her about the book. We went 
looking for it and it doesn’t seem to be available anymore. While doing a 
Google search for it, I found an article dated some time in 2016 which said 
that the book was being offered for free in the iBooks store. The article had a 
link to the book, but the link is of no use.
Since the book is “out of print” and was at one time being offered for free, 
would it be legal to give a copy of the book to my student or anyone else who 
might be interested? If so, how can I do that? I tried saving it to Voice Dream 
Reader and it didn’t show up in Voice Dream Reader’s library. I went into the 
Books app’s library and attempted to share it with my student via AirDrop. No 
go. 
Btw, neither Bookshare nor Bard have it. Any ideas?
Thanks in advance.
Tom

Re: Video editing apps

[Jim Fettgather]

Hello, I was slightly confused by this new slightly modified interface
for trimming videos, but it is essentially the same as before, the
first control that you encounter says Volume, Unmuted button. Then,
there is a plug-ins button, which appears to be dimmed.
Then, there is a media scrubber Frame, I do not know what that is for,
so I do not mess with it.
Then, you have a Start slider that you cam adjust with a one finger
swipe up or down.
Then, you can ignore the next key frame control, and flick over to the
end Slider, which is adjusted the same as the start time. There are a
few other controls, but you should finally encounter a Done button,
after which you can save as a new video, or replace the existing one.
I hope this explanation is helpful in some way.

Re: Documents 7 review: Free iOS file manager puts Apple’s Files app to shame

[Jim Fettgather]

Hello, I purchased a lightning to USB adapter from Apple, I can connect a USB 
thumb drive to that adapter and it shows up right in the files app on the 
iPhone, and the files can be manipulated in many ways.
Thanks.

I don’t know if this app does, but the Files app in IOS 13 allows you to do so.

  Documents 7 review: Free iOS file manager puts Apple’s Files app to shame

  Macworld  /  J.R. Bookwalter





  Documents 7 is a free iOS app for reading PDF, EPUB, Word, and Excel 
documents, opening ZIP archives, viewing images, downloading and much more.


  At a Glance

  · Documents 7 
  Learn more 

  on App Store 

  It took Apple nearly a decade to bring proper file management to the iPhone 
and iPad with the arrival of the Files app in iOS 11. Over the same period of 
time, an enterprising third-party developer based in Odessa, Ukraine was busy 
refining its own file manager app, which outshines Apple’s in almost every 
conceivable way.

  Documents 7 is the latest incarnation of the versatile iOS utility that 
started as clever web app ReaddleDocs, named for the up-and-coming startup who 
created it. The mobile equivalent of macOS Finder, this jack-of-all-trades 
allows iPhone and iPad owners to browse, view, and manage files with ease, all 
from an intuitive user interface that puts Apple’s own Files to shame.



  Documents 7 brings the Plus button to iPhone, making it easier for users to 
create and import files from almost anywhere.

  Although there was little to dislike about the look and feel of prior 
releases, Documents 7 adds a fresh coat of paint inspired by the company’s 
recent PDF Expert 7, a robust tool for document editing and annotation. The 
result is a refined UI that makes viewing and organizing files a more organic 
experience, with support for iOS 13’s new Dark Mode and floating keyboard. iPad 
users can also now open more than one Documents window at a time, great for 
side-by-side comparison or to drag and drop content between them.

  Making its way from iPad to iPhone is the Plus button, a convenient one-tap 
popup in the lower right corner which speeds up creation of new folders, text 
and PDF files, scanning new documents, or importing existing files from iCloud 
Drive, Photos, cloud storage providers, or network-attached sources. Naturally, 
there’s also integration with the built-in Files app for seamlessly accessing 
content stored there, as well as opening files saved in existing Locations 
within Documents 7.

  PDF master
  From the beginning, Documents 7 included a built-in web browser, which now 
offers private browsing mode. On the iPhone, browser settings are conveniently 
located from any open tab—no more hopping back to in-app settings just to clear 
data or change the location of file downloads. There’s even a new option to 
choose DuckDuckGo, Yandex, Ecosia, or Yahoo as the default search engine 
instead of Google. (Yay, privacy!)



  Whether it’s cloud storage, network-attached devices, or remote servers, 
Documents 7 makes file management a snap.

  While Documents has always been a very capable PDF reader, version 7.0 
introduces an option to turn the app into a full-fledged editor as well. After 
upgrading to an annual subscription ($50 per year), Documents 7 unlocks a full 
complement of professional tools, allowing users to edit, convert, and reduce 
the size of PDF files.

  If you already own PDF Expert 6, those editing features are available free of 
charge in Documents 7. Unfortunately, three advanced tools recently added to 
PDF Expert 7 do not get shared, so the only way to customize the Favorites 
toolbar or convert and compress PDF files is to pay for another annual 
subscription. That stinks, but Readdle offers a discounted upgrade to PDF 
Expert owners ($10 for the first year). For the moment, this is the only in-app 
purchase offered—everything else is absolutely free.



  Documents 7 can effortlessly transfer files between iOS devices and personal 
computers using any web browser.

  Bottom line
  For those underwhelmed by the built-in Files app, do yourself a favor and 
install
