RE: Hable 1

2024-02-01 Thread michv
Hi as some one who used the hable 1 a few months ago I would say that yes you 
have to know braille to use it as far as typing on it. It is a input keyboard 
only there is no braille display on it and there is no speech output unless you 
count the speech that comes out from your I phone or I pad that you are using 
it on. Youhold it between your 2 hands and your fingers rest on the perkins 
styal keyboard the keys press up word there are 3 buttons down on the boddem of 
the keyboard the round button is backspace and the one on the right is deleate. 
And the middle is space. Hth. From Mich.

Subject: Hable 1

 

Hi, I just received an email from A T Guys and I am curious about the 
information on their website about the Hable 1. They have the following in the 
title:

 

Hable One Smallest Braille Keyboard For Any Tablet or Smartphone - Easy to 
Carry : A. T. Guys, Your Access Technology Experts

Then  in the description they say this:

Simplified and Fast Typing: Using Hable One your typing speed enhancement 
increases considerably due to the great design streamlines, vastly improving 
your previous keyboard experience. You don’t need to know Braille to use it, 
making it a perfect choice among blind people products.

 

So, it’s a braille keyboard but you don’t need to know braille to use it? Just 
wondering how this works.

You didn't say exactly what kind of case. But that is where the mute switch is 
located. On iPhone 15's that is a button. On all previous models, it is a 
switch/lever that when pushed jtoward the back, mutes the tones, and when push 
toward the screen unmutes.

My question sort of sums it up. I’m thinking about getting a new phone, 
although I could wait one more year, since this one is eligible for an upgrade 
this year. If I do get a new phone, I am contemplating whether it’s worth it to 
go for the pro because of lied AR. There was a lot of hype around it when it 
came out, and I haven’t heard much cents. What does it do for us in particular 
as blind people? I could care less about taking pictures except for the 
purposes of getting descriptions, texts, etc. In other words, regular

Thanks to all for letting me know I can’t get screen recognition on my IPhone 
8.  I don’t think it would solve my problem with the intercom app anyway as the 
app won’t work with voice over on.  I probably need to get a more current phone 
but hate to buy something new when my IPhone 8 is working perfectly well.

 

Has anyone used the Ring Doorbell system?  I’d hate to recommend it only to 
have it not work either.

 

Thanks,

Have you tried to turn on screen recognition to see if that helps with the app?

You should also tell your apartment management they should put pressure on the 
developer to make the app more accessible, you can also contact them yourself, 
but it wouldn't hurt if they did as well. Hopefully the developer is receptive 
and willing to do this.

As for suggesting another app that really is not possible if you don't know the 
system and what works with it. I would request a meeting with whoever is in 
charge of this type of stuff from your management company to discuss and 
explore options.

Hello,

 

My apartment management recently switched to a new app for use with our 
intercom system.  With the old app, a person would punch in your apartment 
number, your phone would ring, you would answer & see who it was then press 9 
to trigger the door to unlock.  Apparently this system was quite old & I am 
told they could not enter any new numbers into the system.  The new app, called 
AIPHONE IXG, is not accessible.  It only gets a 2 star rating so am not sure 
why they chose it.  In order to use it, I have to turn voice over off.  Luckily 
I can see enough to hit the answer phone button.  Then I have to tap on 2 more 
things then slide a door icon over to trigger the door to unlock.  I cannot see 
well enough to tap on the 2 places needed to get to the door icon.  Does anyone 
know of an accessible intercom app I can suggest to management?

 

Thanks,

Sherry Wells

I just downloaded the ResMed app. This is  from limited experience. It seems 
the app doesn’t control my ResMed CPAP device. It seems to do the  following:

*   Link to  existing Web-based sleep records showing records of hours 
slept with the CPAP in operation.
*   Display results of  what may be a scoring system for quality of sleep, 
sleep apnea events each hour, and  reports of mask leaks. (Evidently the ResMed 
devices, MyAir 10 and above, report  this information and it’s placed on the 
Web and password protected.)
*   Present video tutorials to help the user have a better experience.

 

As I work with the app, I’ll report further.

Subject: My Favorite KINDLE APP FEATURE AND A BOOK RECOMMENDATION

 

Hello All,

I think I’ve mentioned this in a previous post but one aspect of Kindle books 
that I have been using more and more, is the feature to seamlessly switch 
between the live narration of a title and the text of that same title, directly 
from within the Kindle app.

If you have not yet explored this feature of the Kindle app, give it a try.  I 
think you will be pleased.

I recently started reading one of Stephen King’s latest novels called Fairy 
Tale.  This is not a horror story.  If anything, it is a fairy tale for adults. 
 

I strongly recommend that you give this book a try because never in my adult 
life have I ever come across a mainstream story in which people with real-life 
disabilities are portrayed in such heroic and equal measure as their 
non-disabled counterparts.  

I am about 50% through the story.  Up to this point, other than some slight 
profanity, there are no descriptions of sex or any quote, adult, quote, content.

There is a long history as to why Stephen King possesses the ability to write 
about people with disabilities in such exciting and yet realistic pros but I’ll 
let you discover the answer to that, on your own, if you so choose.

It is so very refreshing to become immersed in a story where people with 
disabilities are treated as equals and not as people who have super human 
powers who can, for example, in the case of a blind person, distinguish someone 
across a room by the rhythm of his heartbeat and respiration rate.  I’ve 
actually had highly educated professionals, ask me if such a thing is true 
based on something they read about on the net or saw in some movie.

Regardless of whatever book you choose, happy reading.

Mark

Gary Ray here.

 

I was diagnosed with severe sa.  My breathing stopped about 60 times per hour 
when I had the sleep study.

 

I did ask the doctored about sleeping without the machine.

 

They preferred that I take the machine with me whenever I traveled but it is a 
pain.

 

When I pressed the doctor, I was told that I should use my best judgement but I 
should try to use it all the time.

 

I had such a tussle getting used to the mask that my sleep study folks have 
referred me for the Inspire sa surgery.

Hi yes I had this ishu yesterday. It was announcing the letters weardly and as 
well as the numbers since I was getting those same strainge coads when trying 
to enter my password. I was having the same problem as you where. Something in 
the latest update is for shure messed up. After spending almost a day with 
apple accessibillidey the letters are fine as well as the numbers but the pass 
coad field is not the same it is like the numbers are all in a row and not like 
akeypad on the phone. Also all this happened after upgradeing to the latest 
update. Also Samantha was the voice and not alex infact when I tried to select 
alex as a voice it wasn't coming up and I was getting those weard letters and 
simbles when swipeing around on the screen. After eraceing the phone and 
restoring it from a I clowd backup twice vo is now saying home a lot where it 
shouldn't and it is just messed up. I am going to hear back from Apple on 
thirsday after they can try to reperduce the ishues. So it is not just you.

Hello yes this happened to me yesterday the hole   and some weird codes 
the pass coad keyboard was like that and also like you said alex was not coming 
up on my phone as far aswhen you select him and Samantha voice was coming up. 
When swipeing through the voices it was also reading those strainge coads under 
speech and voice section of accessibillidey. And all this started after 
upgradeing to the latest update. It is working now but I had to spend a hole 
day on the phone with apple accessibillidey to make it work nad they also 
wanted a screen recording and analiticks. After eraceing my phone and restoring 
it from a backup vo is saying the word home a lot as well. So it is not just 
you. The updae messed up something for shure. From Mich.

You are a funny man, my friend (big smile).

Actually, I am only halfway through the presentation, as yet.  It's a bit long 
and, to be honest, the keynote presentation format has gotten a bit tiresome.

I mean, Apple announces new stickers as though they have come up with a cure 
for cancer.  

And you know what?  Several of the app features they present as ground breaking 
can already be done on Android.  

Not that I am bitter but I think the reason list traffic is slow, this year, is 
because there was nothing truly exciting, at least, not from my perspective.  I 
have yet to watch the Vision Pro presentation but with a price tag at over 
$3000, it might as well not exist.

Wow, I do sound a bit bitter, eh?  (smile).

install beta software on your primary devices. Wait for public betas or actual 
releases. They're apt to break major functionality. And, despite all the latest 
consternation about Apple not fixing long-standing bugs, I do encourage you to 
report them if you install a beta. They do fix them. The more reports there

Hi all,

 

Do any of you use or are you aware of any bread makers that are accessible 
using bluetooth/wifi?  If so, what brands/models?

 

Also, other than smart machines do any of you use bread makers that are 
physically accessible using buttons/knobs/dials etc?

 

Thanks.

Hello everyone,


I was wondering, is there an accessible GPS App that I could use with my 
iPhone?


It doesn't matter so much if it is free, or if I have to pay for it.


I am looking for something that can show me what is around.

But also, a way to know where possible sidewalks are. But I am uncertain 
as to whether or not such a thing exists.


I am wanting to be able to walk to the rec center that is only about a 
4th of a mile from my home.

However, I don't know if this is even possible.


Any thoughts, or suggestions are much appreciated.


Thank you,


Terri

Currently as of this writing, I can open app store, tap my account,

This is not iOS dependent since as Davy reported, this was happening on iOS 15,

When I checked it tonight it already worked for me before I upgraded to iOS

I received a reply from Apple Accessibility this morning which states that they 
are aware of the issue and they are investigating.
I assume this may have had something to do with the App Store and certain App 
Store changes have always been done on the backend and they are not necessarily 
connected to iOS itself which would explain why this is happening with iOS 15, 
iOS 16.3 as well as iOS 16.4 public beta.
I would think this is something which Apple will fix sooner rather than later.
As for using screen recognition this still does not work for me even if I wait 
10 seconds or 20 seconds, I have backed out of subscriptions after turning it 
on and gone back and it does not give me anything except what I also see 
without screen recognition.

Hi Janet,

I am pretty sure that "screen curtain" is a feature of Voiceover, so if she is 
sighted and not using Voiceover, "screen curtain" is not available to her.

On your second question go to settings, accessibility, Voiceover, then Rotor. 
You will have to flick down the screen many times, but eventually you will come 
to "direct touch." Double tap it and it will be on the rotor.

I hope that helps!

while it's reasonably accurate, it will announce an approaching 
intersection at least 150 feet away from the actual crossing.  It also 
doesn't indicate what type of intersection I'm approaching.


I'm exploring a new neighborhood without much traffic or pedestrians, so 
this information would be good to have.  Is there a GPS that will do 
this that works well with VO?

Subject: Ciri Responding Oddly When Asked to Call Someone 

 

Hello,

 

I have an IPhone 8 & am current on IOS.  Ever since updating IOS, I frequently 
get an odd response when I ask Ciri to call someone in my contacts list.  I 
will say call person X & she will say what do you want to know about person X.  
This may happen several times before I give up & open the contact to tap on the 
phone # to call them.  Even funnier, I have a sister-in-law named Mickie who is 
on my VIP contact list & is my ICE contact.  Today when I asked Ciri to call 
her I got a web site telling me who Mickey Mouse was.  This happened a couple 
of times.  I obviously have tried speaking very clearly to no avail.  It is not 
the end of the world to have to open the contacts to make a call but I’d rather 
have the convenience of just saying call person.  Is anyone else having this 
problem?

 

Thanks,

Sherry Wells

just wondering if anyone has had nay luck with the dateing app blind lee?

2023-02-10 Thread michv
Hi all I am just wondering if any one has had any luck with the dateing app
BlindLee? It suposibley only gives out your age and first name to a caller
and it is like speed dateing with video and voice and not just picks. I have
tried it and the only thing that happens when I try to call some one they
say that they are struggeling to find users in my airea. But when I get
notifications they always say that there is a lot of actividey on the app. I
just was wondering if any one has had any luck or if you are all getting
these message. From Mich.

Hi,

 

If you live in Vancouver (that is the one in Canada, not Washington State) you 
can soon test out NaviLens codes installed on a number of public transit stops. 
Here is the article headline followed by the link:

 

TransLink is set to install 10 NaviLens codes at New Westminster SkyTrain 
Station bus bays, four near the Canadian National Institute for the Bind, and 
two near the Vancouver Community College campus on East Broadway

 

TransLink to pilot coded decals at bus stops for blind riders

I have to agree with Sieghard. I have the best success with wired Apple Earpods 
and consider them the best value of any earbuds I've consistently used. I have 
some second generation wireless Apple Airpods and while they're ok for 
listening to content, they mess up whenever I receive a phone call. And I still 
use my iPhone 13 Mini as a phone although it seems the phone app performs 
inconsistently when using Voiceover. I don't know if the issue is the 
microphone in the Airpods but I get the most consistent performance with the 
wired Apple Earpods.

Subject: RE: Have you Gone Wireless, Yet?

I'd take a set of Airpods maybe if somebody gave them to me along with $20.
I hate having anything stuck inside my ear further than the wired Earpods, they 
happen to fit me great and I don't even have to push them in hard and they just 
stay in place.
I also wouldn't be caught dead spending the kind of money on two little things 
which only last 5 or 6 hours and which I am bound to loose sooner or later.
Now keep in mind that this is strictly my take, I know many of  you love them 
and that's fine, then of course if I did spend the money on them I'd also say I 
love them.
As for wearing something in bed when you most likely will fall asleep there is 
nothing better than those sleep headbands which have a set of very thin 
speakers on each side over your ear and a little control pod on  your forehead 
with 3 buttons for volume up/down and play/pause in the middle. Of course if 
you want to fall asleep to high fidelty music then these are not the right 
thing, but they are fine for audio books or, if you are into those sleep 
sounds, that would probably be just fine, but they are the most comfortable 
thing and I usually sleep on my side so I definitely know and I often wake up 
in the middle of the night with my Audible book happily playing and I then 
usually stop it, pull them off my head and thrown them on the side table. You 
can find them on Amazon, just make sure you do look for wireless ones because 
the original ones do have a 3.5mm cable and that of course is sucks. I think I 
paid around $30 Canadian for mine about 2 or 3 years ago and they still work 
great.
I also have an Aftershokz Open Com which I use in certain situations and 
another Bluetooth gadget I have is one of these around the neck speakers, they 
consist of a thick and relatively soft rubbery cable about as thick as your 
thumb and one each end is a speaker, one has the typical buttons to turn it 
on/off and for play/pause and volume up/down. I quite like using them at home 
when I am out in the summer in the garden or even while cooking, your audio is 
right there more or less in front of your shoulders and you can easily reach up 
and pause or change the volume.for cert But I just bought a new set of 
Lightning Earpods because they are still my preferred headset, there is no lag 
and for $24.99 Canadian I get surprisingly good sounding earbuds. I probably go 
through a pair a year, sometimes a bit longer, but as I said, inexpensive, good 
and when I don't need them I roll them up around my hand and stick them into my 
pocket.

Best regards,
Sieghard

Hello All,

I have long been a fan of Apple wired Ear Pods.  

I had to have my original beloved 8 Plus replaced, about a month prior to its 
warranty expiration because the audio function of the Lightening port went bad.

For the last 6-months or so, perhaps longer, while the Lightening port on my 
replacement 8 Plus still functioned as expected, it lost the ability to retain 
a cable, unassisted.  This is to say, when I hold the phone in portrait mode, 
perpendicular to the ground, any attached cable will fall out.  

I am certain that I was the blame for this as I used to frequently roll onto 
the phone, when sleeping; very often tangling  the cable with tension for hours 
at a time.  (How's that for too much information? (smile)).

My point, I am determined not to ruin the Lightening port on my 14.

With that in mind, I am doing my best to wing myself from the wired Ear Pods in 
favor of Apple Air Pods.

A Blind Truth
Microsoft Soundscape - Further Information
Firstly , thank you all so much for sharing my recent post about the imminent 
demise of Microsoft Soundscape. It is obvious from the number of comments and 
shares the post got, that I am not the only one who was shocked by the news.
Now, this is not a direct response to me from Microsoft - however…
Via a chain of contacts I have been lead to believe that one of the main 
reasons for Microsoft discontinuing Soundscape is that they don’t think very 
many people use it.Apparently they have no way of knowing, which I have to say 
rocks my world somewhat.
So, here’s the thing. Let’s let Microsoft know how much we use, and how much we 
rely on it for safety, independence and orientation.
You never know, this might be that one time when pester power actually works.
So,once again, please share this post far and wide, andlet’s see if we can get 
Microsoft to change it’s mind.

RE: How to prevent Face ID from misfiring?

2022-12-07 Thread michv
Hmm this is a good question I wonder if you could use a combination of face id 
and pin? Since I have a I phone 8 but am planning to get a I phone 14 prow in 
the new year. It would be good if you had a choice of using face id and pin in 
combination with one another. From Mich.

Subject: How to prevent Face ID from misfiring?

 

Hey again, folks. Thanks for the help with my last Face ID question. Mostly I 
think it’s just going to be getting used to it. Speaking of that, I’m wondering 
if there’s a way I can prevent Face ID from being the default – right now, the 
iPhone assumes I want to unlock my phone when it wakes, which results in Face 
ID trying to fire off. So for example, my phone will go off while I’m busy 
doing something, so when I’m free I decide to check it out to see what it said 
in case, you know, something at work is on fire and I need to be not doing the 
thing I’m doing. So I pull up my notifications, and Face ID fires off. But 
because I’m not intending to unlock my phone but only check to see what I 
missed, Face ID inevitably fails because I don’t have it in a good position for 
it to succeed—why would I if I only want to check my notifications? Besides 
waring earbuds or something, which makes no sense if I’m the only one in the 
place and so my phone isn’t disturbing anyone, is there a way I can set my 
phone to only try to unlock it with my face when I tell it to? Otherwise, Face 
ID is probably going to continue to misfire and end up disabling itself after 5 
failed attempts that I didn’t want to be attempts. Again, if I’m missing 
something obvious feel free to whap me upside the head with it. Thanks for the 
help!

RE: How to make notifications more informative on iPhone 14?

I’ve been out of the new phone game for a while. I’ve been rocking the 7 since 
shortly after it launched. I’ve since moved over to the 14 Pro Max, and they 
changed my text message notifications on me. Before, I used to be able to read 
my text messages from the lock screen without unlocking the phone. Now, it just 
says “text message”. It’s probably a setting I read about and forgot since it 
didn’t apply to me, but… How do I get the previous behavior back?

Hi,

I’ve noticed something very  recently and think it came with an IOS 16 upgrade. 
 Wondering if it’s just me.  I often dictate using the dictate button to the 
left on the keyboard.  I realize that I can one finger double tap to stop 
dictation, assuming that focus hasn’t moved from that button, but it seems to 
me that I’ve been using a two-finger double tap for years.  As of late, doing 
this gesture out of muscle memory often starts the music player on my phone. 
Even if I do another two finger double tap to stop the  music, I’m still in 
dictation mode.  I found it easiest to  open the ap switcher and go back to the 
app, which disrupted dictation  for me.  So, does anyone else use a two-finger 
double tap to stop dictation and notice this as a change?  Either that, or my 
latest birthday has send my brain into some weird memory void.For now, I’m 
trying to retrain myself to the one finger double tap.

 

Robin on an  SE 2020 running IOS 16.1.1.

Hey Mich, one could probably go crazy testing out the number of OCR apps 
available. For reading all required information on banking and credit cards, i 
have found the very best OCR Program to be Voice OCR. Most OCR I have tried 
can't read the embossed numbers on the cards; Voice OCR has failed me only on 
one card and I can't so far get entry to Aira as an impoverished non-paying 
member.

Sing along with Mich! (sometimes I can't help myself!)

I am not richard, but here is an example of what he is talking about I believe. 
Open a Mail message. Set your rotor to read by word, or character, or line, it 
doesn’t really matter. Flick down to read a couple of words or whatever. Then 
flick once to the right. The next time you flick down, your rotor will have 
changed and you will be sent to the bottom where you have your choice to trash 
the message or whatever. In my case, every time it says trash. So the rotor is 
switching just because I make a flick to the right without changing anything. 
I’m sure there are others, but this one is easy to duplicate.

Hi Richard,

 

I am curious about your statement abut Apple having to fix a bug with the rotor 
where things randomly get turned on. I don't recall this ever happening to me 
unless of course I accidently had focus on a particular rotor item like screen 
recognition at which point of course a flick up or down will toggle this on or 
off. Can you give specific examples about this?

Subject: Recommendation: put Screen Recognition in VO Quick Settings, not the 
Rotor

 

After my experience with the BARDMobile app and screen recognition accidentally 
getting turned on, I have taken it out of the rotor and put it in Quick 
Settings.

The advantage is that it cannot be accidentally turned on.

Until Apple fixes the Rotor so it doesn’t randomly change what is focused, 
accidentally turning on various settings will happen.

This one can reak havvoc, so moving it to Quick Settings will lessen the 
problems it can cause while leaving it available for those places where it may 
be useful.

To open Quick Settings, do a two finger quadruple tap.  Find the setting you 
want to enable and do a one finger double tap.

Hi,

I was experimenting a bit with turning on the accessibility setting for full

working fine with a Bluetooth keyboard.

However, as soon as I then turned on a braille display, the keyboard access 
quit working from the Bluetooth keyboard. Does anyone know if this is how

If you use the rotor method, the permission doesn’t come up.

Or, just do a two finger scrub and clear the permission request and the paste 
happens anyway.

Could you give a specific example which I could reproduce regarding the paste 
permission prompt?

Here is one I just tried:

 

1. I was on my home screen with focus on the Facebook app and Voiceover said: 
Facebook, 1 new item

I did a 3-finger quadruple tap and Voiceover said "Facebook, 1 new item copied 
to clipboard.

I then started a new text message and when I was in the message field I turned 
the rotor, swiped up to "Edit" and then flicked down to "Paste".

I double tapped and "Facebook, 1 new item was pasted into the message field 
without any prompts for paste permissions etc.

 

If you reproduce these steps and also don't get the prompt let me know a 
scenario where you do get it so I can reproduce it.

I wonder if you have a setting that is allowing you to avoid those messages.

I don’t get enough text messages to be bothered by the extra step, but the 
pasting one is a real PITA.

That, or since Apple isn’t seeing it internally, you are just one of the lucky 
ones.

Just curious, why a 13 Pro Max rather than just a regular 13 Pro? I can see the 
Pro Max being a good thing if you are doing a lot of braille input or if you 
are out and about a lot and want absolutely the most battery life. I much 
prefer the slightly smaller phone, it costs a couple of hundred less here in 
Canada and if battery life is really a concern then you can get one of these 
Anker MagGo external batteries for $50 or $60 and that would even beat the 
battery life of a Pro max at a lot less cost..

As always people will upgrade whether they have to or not. And let's not forget 
there are many who still have phones like the iPhone 8, X, XS or XR and if they 
wish to upgrade this year simply because their phones are getting old then any 
iPhone 14 whether Pro or not is still a good choice. For sighted people who 
drive even just the crash detection feature can be a good motivation, then 
there is a slightly larger battery, slightly improved camera on the 14/14 Plus 
and big time improved camera on the Pro models and the emergency SOS via 
satellite which again for users who are off the grid a lot could offer some 
peace of mind.
And anybody who doesn't think they need all that they can probably score a good 
deal on an iPhone 13 come Black Friday. I am actually most likely going to wait 
for that.

>From all I read the regular 14 and 14 Plus do not have LiDAR.
You'd be hard pressed to list 3 good reasons why somebody should upgrade from 
an iPhone 13 to a 14 or even from an 11 or 12 to a 14.
I am actually quite underwhelmed with this years phones especially the regular 
models which still have the A15 chip just like the 13 models from last year. 
They say they improved the camera a bit and the front camera now has auto focus 
so I guess if you are a selfie obsessed person that may be one good reason. The 
emergency SOS via satellite is definitely a feature and a good reason for 
people who go off the grid a lot and then that is about it.
I have a regular iPhone 11 which works great and for things like doing OCR, 
recognizing currency or using other Seeing AI features I doubt you would be 
able to notice an improvement between it and the iPhone 14 or even iPhone 14 
Pro. For sighted people who love taking tons of photos and are really into good 
photography the 14 Pro definitely would be a great option, if you really want 
to take advantage of door detection and maybe other features in various apps 
which require the LiDAR sensor then you have also a very good reason for the 14 
Pro or Pro Max, but only if you don't already have a 12 Pro/Pro Max or 13 
Pro/Pro Max which already have the LiDAR sensor as well.

I had my call from Telus, my provider in Canada today and I could have upgraded 
to an iPhone 14 Pro 128 Gb for $30/month over 24 months and then I would have 
to give the phone back to them or buy out that option for $560. This means that 
over 2 years I would have paid $720 and if I then wanted to keep the phone I'd 
have to buy it out for $560 so in total I would pay $1,280. I can go to the 
Apple Store and buy a new iPhone 14 Pro 128 Gb in Canada for $1,399 so I guess

Mitch,
Good Friday is April 7, 2023.  Or did you mean Black Friday, the day after US 
Thanksgiving for the pre-Christmas sales?  That is November 25th.  

I am with Sieghard, unless you have a good reason for the larger phone/battery 
life, or enough vision to take advantage of the larger screen, the Pro size 
would be more affordable and get pretty much the same performance other than 
maybe a little less battery life; but they are talking all day battery life 
with either pro or pro max, so the suggestion of a battery pack is a good one.

I think you said you have an 8 now, so any of the 14's will be a huge 
improvement.

Just curious, why a 13 Pro Max rather than just a regular 13 Pro? I can see the 
Pro Max being a good thing if you are doing a lot of braille input or if you 
are out and about a lot and want absolutely the most battery life. I much 
prefer the slightly smaller phone, it costs a couple of hundred less here in 
Canada and if battery life is really a concern then you can get one of these 
Anker MagGo external batteries for $50 or $60 and that would even beat the 
battery life of a Pro max at a lot less cost..

As always people will upgrade whether they have to or not. And let's not forget 
there are many who still have phones like the iPhone 8, X, XS or XR and if they 
wish to upgrade this year simply because their phones are getting old then any 
iPhone 14 whether Pro or not is still a good choice. For sighted people who 
drive even just the crash detection feature can be a good motivation, then 
there is a slightly larger battery, slightly improved camera on the 14/14 Plus 
and big time improved camera on the Pro models and the emergency SOS via 
satellite which again for users who are off the grid a lot could offer some 
peace of mind.
And anybody who doesn't think they need all that they can probably score a good 
deal on an iPhone 13 come Black Friday. I am actually most likely going to wait 
for that.

As far as I know, LIDAR is still only on the pro and pro max models.

One could call Apple to double check, but I was surprised they didn't mention 
anything about it especially with the door detection feature that is apparently 
coming in iOS 16, but of course, Wednesday's presentation was focused on 
hardware, not software.

RE: Embarrassing question

2022-08-30 Thread michv
Hi I am not shure but some sights that come to mind are dateingfordisabled.com 
zoosk lava life by phone, quest chat, these are phone dateing lines men have to 
pay women don’t and you need a cc. as far as apps tinder comes to mind but the 
last time I used it it relyed on picks and it was not that accessible with vo. 
Also there is plentyoffish but again I am not shure how accessible this is now. 
Back when I used it back in around 2005 it was accessible but that was years 
ago. There is also the free chat line the number is 1712 432 5700 how ever even 
that is not free they give you around 5 or 10 minnits and then your time is up 
and you have to call back in unless you want to pay for a membership. The same 
things go for lavalife by phone and quest dchat again those you pay for so many 
minnits. And if you are a guy you have to pay but if you are a woman you don’t 
have to. I hope some of this is of some use. I don’t know of any fully 
accessible dateing apps or websibghts. The things that I did like about the 
phone options is that you can hear the person’s voice all though having said 
that you still don’t know if the people who you are dateing or speeking to are 
real or if they are just sounding like women so I guess even that is not safe.

A tech support guy from Apple told me around 2 months ago that the sim card is 
definitely on the way out in favor of E sim.  I would guess that the sim slot 
is the first place that water might enterr.

I wouldn't care if my finger print sensor is under the screen, I just prefer

I'm not sure how long it takes for technology to double these days but I would

Actually the IPX rating states 6 metres for up to 30 minutes which is approx. 
20 feet.
As for Touch Id it will be one of the things of the past in my opinion. There 
have been rumours ever since Face Id was introduced in 2017 that one day there 
will be an iPhone which has Face Id and under-display Touch Id meaning your 
finger print will be read by a sensor embedded in a particular area under the 
screen, but it's not going to be part of the iPhone 14 this year and while one 
should never say never, I have a feeling it has gone the way of the 3.5mm 
headphone jack. Of course such good water resistance can only be achieved if 
there are fewer points where water can enter. I heard that physical SIM cards 
may also soon be a thing of the past with e-SIM taking over, then it's long 
been rumoured that at some point the iPhone won't have any more connector at 
all and if then the volume buttons and the side button are appropriately 
designed we could be looking at an iPhone which may become the scuba divers new 
underwater camera. After all, most scuba diving is done in 40 feet or less and 
a recreational diver stays down maybe 55 minutes to an hour at the most with a 
single tank so that isn't so far fetched.

I have not used a 13 mini.  I am guessing that it doesn't have touch id.  That 
would probably be my biggest complaint because I love the touch ID on my S E 
2020.

How much does the 13 mini normally cost for the base model?  And, is the 13 
mini really water resistant up to 36 feet under water for 30 minutes?  That is 
amazing.

Apart from going to a Pro Max phone which has better and louder speakers I

The size difference is minor, I have put the dimensions and weights as well as 
IPX rating below as this can be easily looked up by doing a Google search for 
"iPhone 13 Mini specifications" or "iPhone SE 2022 specifications", but let's 
not forget that despite the slightly smaller size of the iPhone 13 Mini it has 
a larger screen than the iPhone SE 2022 and it is significantly more water 
proof.
In terms of actual difference, the iPhone SE 2022 is just over a quarter inch 
taller and about an eighth of an inch wider.
The difference in thickness is so minor, 0.35mm, that it can hardly be 
expressed in inches, but for those who really care, this would be 0.0138 
inches, in fractions it would be 1/72 of an inch.
Also the weight is only 4 grams different, once again not anything you could 
ever notice if you held one phone in one hand and the other in your other hand.
Of course there is the silly home button which some people think they can't 
live without, but of course will have to live without in a few years after the 
shiny new iPhone SE 2022 they may buy now has to be replaced and there will 
just not be another model with home button. As far as I am concerned I agree 
with Kelly and I'd take the increased water resistance and newer design with 
larger OLED screen of the iPhone 13 Mini any day over the SE 2022, but then

It is absolutely possible to take a good selfie, easiest would be to double tap 
and hold on the Camera app and select Portrait Selfie from the context menu, 
then hold the phone at arm’s length and listen to Voiceover telling you if you 
have to tilt right or tilt left and whether it can detect a face and if it is 
centred.

 

If this is difficult you can always call Aira and they can tell you how to hold 
your phone and once in a good position they can take the picture for you and 
email it to you. This would all be possible with the free 5-minute call option. 
I have used them a number of times when I had to take photos I wanted to make 
sure where good, e.g. at one time my insurance company wanted to up-to-date 
photos of the outside of my house etc.

I have started a route in the middle, but, since I am not using Sound Scape 
right now, I cannot tell you what to do. I believe I went to the route and 
double tapped the marker where I wanted to start. 

Just using a marker with out a route is similar to using Ariadne GPS. It will 
constantly tell you the direction and distance to the marker if you have set it 
as a beacon. Obviously you will not have intermediate markers and direction on 
the way. Also, it the constant dinging in your ears drives you nuts, just push 
the stop button on your headphones or whatever you are using and the app will 
only give you the distance to the beacon about every fifty feet or so.

question is it possible to use ms. soundscape to just get to a marker and not have a root to it? or is it possible to have ms soundscape start in the middle of a root?

2022-07-19 Thread michv
Hi all I have been using ms. Soundscape with my apple air pods and I just
set a root to tim hortons from home or ome to tim hortons. I am wondering is
it possible to use sound scape and just go to a marker with out setting a
root to it? Or can you start soundscape in the middle of a root and it will
pick up where you are on that root? For instince let's say that I know haff
of a root but am not shure of the other haff. Would it be possible to pick
up soundscape and start it haff way through a root and it would know where
you were on the root? Many thanks. From Mich.

Sorry, I meant the two finger double tap and hold. I assumed that’s what Mich

I'm glad you got the issue resolved. I'm curious about the three finger double 
tap and hold gesture mentioned by you and Christopher in order to edit the 
folder label. This gesture doesn't do anything for me. I have to use a two 
finger double tap and hold to do that. 

 

Thanks for any clarification.

Every robot vacuum that is currently available has drop sensors to prevent

page 2 etc. I am wondering how I can accomplish this? I have tried doing a 3 
finger press and hold to try to re name the folder to something elts when it is 
saying soashel instead of the name of different folders I only have 1 folder 
called soashel but some times vo is saying the word soashel before the word 
games for my games folder. I have tried clearing the text and rrighting the 
word games but it is still doing this. Since I have the same layout of folders 
on my I phone 8 From Mich.

>From the user guide for pairing the Writer:

 

Step 1. Turn on the Orbit Writer by pressing Up + Down Arrow keys. It responds 
with a short vibration pulse.

Step 2. You can connect the Orbit Writer to multiple devices. Each connection 
is called a channel. Channel 1, the default channel, is already set. Enable 
pairing on channel 1 by pressing and holding Space + Left Arrow + Dot 1 until 
you feel a short vibration pulse.

Step 3 is where you pick the writer in the list of braille devices.

You may want to look at the pairing instructions again.

You have to put it in pairing mode. Just turning it on doesn't do it.

Hi I didn’t pick a channel. What I did was I turned on the wrighter and whent 
into settings voice over braille and looked for the wrighter to show up there. 
All that is showing up is my focus 40 fifth gen. and it is showing up as 
connected but not my orbit wrighter. Any help with trying to pair this would 
help. I just now turned it back on and tried to see if it would see it and it 
is still not showing up in the list. Many thanks. From Mich.

If you got the Writer into pairing mode, it will show up there.

 

My guess is, that you maybe didn’t get it into pairing mode?

 

Did you pick a channel?
