Re: Updates Please For accessible air fryers And Thermometers

With a combination of small dots from Amazon and some Braille labels, I was 
able to make use of the Ninja Foody. It bakes, broils, slow cooks, acts as a 
pressure cooker, airfry and broils.

  Subject: Re: Updates Please For accessible air fryers And Thermometers


  I've used the Cosori Smart air fryer, 5.8 quart model with Alexa and VeSync, 
but mostly Alexa, since January 2021.
  It is just an air fryer.
  I do not know if their smart devices that are combo units work as well.
  I gather several brands are accessible, but this is the only one I've needed.

Perhaps if I could have turned the unit on by some remote app, it might have 
been satisfactory. I didn't find any Alexa info during my last purchase.

BTW, I've used Iphones since 2012 and still have the Instant pot which was 
almost made useless by the neglect of the manufacturer. Pressure from consumers 
I suspect caused them to continue support. However, I haven't checked the app 
store to see if the App is still available in the app store. However, my 
present instant pot app still works with IOS 15.4.1. Not sure what will happen 
when apple releases subsequent updates.

Perhaps things in regards to accessibility for blind folks have improved.

Yes fans and foes, I know these items have been previously discussed but 
I would like to learn if there are any updates for IOS accessibility.


As the subject says, I am looking for both Air Friers and Thermometers. 
Specifically, I would be happier with an Air fryer combo i.e. with 
toaster oven and/or slow cooker etc.


For thermometers, I would like cooking, environmental, and health. Throw
