Re: Seeking Advice on Upgrading from iPhone 5 to iPhone SE

Sieghard,
Thanks for the corrections, but as far as everything else most of this is 
speculation.  My point was to sit tight until Apple makes their official 
announcement next Wednesday.  Apple will do as Apple wants to do.  I have read 
several speculations on the web that a revised SE will be announced which could 
speed up the end of life process for the current SE, not to mention Apple has 
had offered new products in the March time frame.  With the announcement just 7 
days away, my personal opinion

Re: iCloud backup versus encrypted iTunes backup

Hi Arnold and all,

Home screen arrangements are restored with either type of backup. BARD books 
are not saved in either kind of backup. The latest version of apps is copied to 
your device whether you use an iCloud or iTunes backup.

Carolyn, I am with u on that.  I think that the bottom line comes down to 
what you want to use your phone for. I really don't care about all the 3 d 
touch and other bells and whistles.  I just want my phone  to make phone 
calls (imagine that), do text messaging, and travel stuff like uber lyft, 
and nearby explorer.  I want it to be small, like the SE, so I can easily 
carry it.  But, if you want your iphone to be your computer and your sole 
device, then maybe you really need the latest and greatest.

I am considering replacing my iPhone with an iPhone SE since my carrier is 
offering the latter for $100.  I don't want a phone with lots of bells and 
whistles, but I would like one that runs iOS 11X, which the iPhone does not

RE: Seeking Advice on Upgrading from iPhone 5 to iPhone SE

2018-09-05 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
Well said, Kitty, everybody's needs and expectations are different. My mother, 
for example, chose the iPhone 6S Plus because for her the larger screen is 
better, she is fully sighted but at 76 her vision also is not what it once was 
so the larger screen helps. For somebody like you who wants a fully accessible 
phone which gives you the option to use some apps but you are not using it for 
everything and the more advanced stuff you can do something like the iPhone SE 
is ideal. Nonetheless my advice to Craig stands, at this point with the major 
Apple announcement a week away it absolutely can't hurt to wait even if it's 
just to see whether the SE drops in price.

RE: iCloud backup versus encrypted iTunes backup

2018-09-05 Thread Alan Lemly
Hi Arnold,

 

I'm running iTunes 12.8.0.16 and also expected the latest version of my apps to 
be downloaded from the cloud when I restored my iTunes encrypted backup to my 
new iPhone 8. However, this isn't what happened. Even though you're ight that 
iTunes no longer lets you backup apps to your local computer, I somehow ended 
up with the same versions of my apps on my iPhone 8 that I had running on my 
iPhone 7. I'm sure of this because when I went into updates on the Apps Store, 
I still had over 70 apps listed there with newer versions. If all of my apps 
had been downloaded with their most current versions, nothing should have shown 
on the Apps Store update screen except apss that had a new release uploaded 
very recently.

 

I was glad I had my iTunes backup because I initially selected restore from the 
cloud backup as it didn't give me any other options except for setting it up as 
a brand new phone and I knew I didn't want that. During the cloud restore, I 
started getting prompts that the iPhone wanted the password for an Apple ID 
that I did not recognize and was not my email address. When this started 
happening, I launched iTunes and restored my encrypted backup which ran 
overnight and returned everything to what I expected. Well, I had one app that 
was no longer available in the Apps Store so that was not restored. So, I'm 
confused how and where the apps are obtained when doing a restore from an 
encrypted backup. My experience seems to say they come from the cloud but if 
the apps are still available, you get whatever version you were running when 
you backed up your device.

I  will be delighted if I am wrong about this, but starting with ITunes 12.7, 
apps no longer  are backed up to an encrypted backup.  When one restores the 
device, the  latest version of the app is restored to the device. Also, 
remember that if you have spent any time arranging your home screens the way 
you want them, or making folders for apps, I think  all that will be gone  and 
the apps will appear in alphabetical order.  I do not know if the customized 
screens will be restored from an encrypted backup or not, I do not think they 
are restored from an ICloud backup. They use to be restored from an encrypted 
backup.

The one advantage encrypted backups have is that you can return to a previous

the latest version of your apps.

Hi Keith,

 

Both types of backups back up all of the same information. If you restore from

either. I would suggest backing up with icloud on a regular basis and doing an 
encrypted iTunes backup before you get a new device so that if you have to 
restore from the backup, the iTunes one is available in case something is wrong 
with the iCloud one.

If you want to just try it out you can download it for free and learn how to 
type with it, it is a bit of a learning curve so if you get it, try it once and 
find it's not working for you then you are probably not giving it enough time.
The fact is that is may not work for everybody, but it does work for a lot of 
people so you need to practice.
If you pay the 99 cent a month subscription price you can add it as a third 
party keyboard in Settings > General > Keyboards and access it from pretty much 
any edit field system wide, the free version requires you to open the app, then 
you can type your text and copy it to the clipboard or send it to an app like 
mail or messages.
Of course as is always the case some people complain that a buck a month is 
just outrageous and too much and why can't they just pay $2 or $3 once and get 
the use of it for a lifetime. Of course this is primarily geared towards the 
visually impaired so it's a smaller market and the couple who is spending 
countless hours having developed it and making it better are probably not 
independently wealthy where they can do this out of the goodness of their 
hearts and they appreciate a few thousands of Dollars of income for their 
effort. I mean, really, do people really expect to have a haircut or go out for 
dinner and it should be free? Or maybe they can pay their hair dresser $50 once 
and it's good for the next 5 years?
Fleksy which came years ago and which is what Flicktype is based on cost I 
think up to $15 a tone point and people paid it, then it went free and of 
course some of those who paid complaint about how unfair the world is, then 
Fleksy realized that if they also made their keyboard appealing to sighted 
users it is much better and soon enough the Fleksy experience for blind users 
went down the drain. Now kost and his wife Ashely who were part of the original 
Fleksy team have released Flicktype and hopefully the fact that many of us who 
appreciate it do pay them a buck a month means that Flicktype will stick around 
for many years to come and that it will get even better as it already is.
I for one don't even use it that much because when it comes to straight forward 
text entry I still think dictation is faster and easier for me, but I do use it 
from time to time when I am somewhere I can't just babble on about something 
and even for the little bit I use it I am glad to pay my $1.35 canadian.

Hello, everyone.

I am considering replacing my iPhone with an iPhone SE since my carrier is 
offering the latter for $100.  I don't want a phone with lots of bells and 
whistles, but I would like one that runs iOS 11X, which the iPhone does not 
allow.  Are there compelling reasons why I should not upgrade to the SE?  
Thanks for any advice.

that feature.

Craig,

With the announcement from Apple next Wednesday regarding all of the new 
hardware you may just want to sit tight.  First off the price may drop even 
lower than $100, but as Apple announces new products they also roll existing 
products into end of support and end of life.  If Apple stays consistent iOS 12 
will probably be the last version that will run on the iPhone 6 and probably 
the SE since they are basically the same hardware just in a different form 
factor.  That being said the iPhone 7 will probably drop in price as it will 
technically be the 4th oldest version after the 9/12 announcement.

RE: Seeking Advice on Upgrading from iPhone 5 to iPhone SE

2018-09-05 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
The iPhone X will be replaced by a new model most likely called the iPhone XS 
and there is talk that there will also be a larger iPhone XS Plus model 
probably with a 6.5 inch screen instead of the 5.8 inch screen of the iPhone X 
and upcoming XS.
There will most likely also be another new and less expensive iPhone which 
maybe called the iPhone 9 which is rumoured to have a 6.1 inch LCD screen.
My guess is that the iPhone X from last year will definitely be discontinued 
and that some of the iPhone 8/8 Plus models and probably the iPhone 7 wil stick 
around as the new lower cost models.
If you buy a new device a week or even a month before the next major 
announcement and release of the new phones then that is what happens and since 
you bought an iPhone X I assume you wanted the latest and greatest which next 
week will still be pretty good, but not quite the latest and greatest any more 
and in terms of price the new iPhone XS will probably cost exactly what you 
paid for your iPhone X, sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but Apple has 
released new phones in September for at least 6 or 7 years.

I have an IPhone 5S with Verizon & am having the same problem.  Some people 
just sound fuzzy & it is hard to understand them.  One person is calling me wih 
an IPhone 6 & another has some cheap phone, not sure what it is.  Both are very 
hard to understand.  There are other fuzzy calls too but I’m not sure what 
phone those people have.  This has just started happening in the last 6 months 
or so.  Are there any tone settings I can check?  I looked around in settings 
but didn’t see anything.

I can tell you that I really, I mean really like my SE. I have had a 4S and all

Hello, everyone.

I am considering replacing my iPhone with an iPhone SE since my carrier is 
offering the latter for $100.  I don't want a phone with lots of bells and 
whistles, but I would like one that runs iOS 11X, which the iPhone does not 
allow.  Are there compelling reasons why I should not upgrade to the SE?  
Thanks for any advice.

RE: Seeking Advice on Upgrading from iPhone 5 to iPhone SE

2018-09-05 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
Hi Jim,

Just a few corrections:
The iPhone SE is a generation newer than the iPhone 6 and has the same insides 
as the 6S except for no 3D Touch and it has the same first generation Touch Id 
home button as the 5S and 6/6 Plus not the improved one of the 6S/6S Plus.
Also, for the first time iOS 12 will work on devices one year further back than 
in the past, Apple has confirmed during the June keynote that iOS 12 will work 
on all the same devices as iOS 11. For the most part that is because iOS 12 is 
much less of a version which brings new features but more one which brings bug 
fixes and efficiency improvements. During the June keynote they used an iPhone 
6 to point out how much faster iOS 12 will run on it, how much faster it will 
load apps and so on. In the tech industry some people say Apple should have 
called it iOS 11.5 but of course this is not how Apple does things.
The iPhone SE as well as the 6S/6S Plus will almost certainly still get iOS 13 
next year and probably even iOS 14 in 2020 and only with iOS 15 in 2021 will 
they be dropped from the upgrade list.

Sieghard

Craig,
With the announcement from Apple next Wednesday regarding all of the new 
hardware you may just want to sit tight.  First off the price may drop even 
lower than $100, but as Apple announces new products they also roll existing 
products into end of support and end of life.  If Apple stays consistent iOS 12 
will probably be the last version that will run on the iPhone 6 and probably 
the SE since they are basically the same hardware just in a different form 
factor.  That being said the iPhone 7 will probably drop in price as it will 
technically be the 4th oldest version after the 9/12 announcement.

2018-09-05 Thread Carolyn Arnold
That's true. I paid $160 for mine. I think I treasure it more that it does so 
much for so little, when I have two girlfriends who got 7's for $549 and aren't 
coming along with their phones as well as I am, and I'm older than either. 
Sounds crazy, right?

Oh, by the way, I got a charger, and also a car charger, which I was about to 
give to my son, when my cousin said, keep that; you might need it if the power 
is off for a long period of time.

I got my 32 SE on a six-month plan - $25.00 a payment, paid ten dollars for 
activation. I have one more payment to go. It would be good, since the new 
phones are coming out to see if one could be gotten for even less than $100.

Subject: RE: Seeking Advice on Upgrading from iPhone 5 to iPhone SE

Hi Craig,

 

Yes, but if you wait a week or two you will probably get an SE for free 
although I would advise against the SE. The SE is basically a 6S with respect 
to processor and so on, of course it has the smaller 4 inch screen and unlike 
the 6S/6S Plus, the SE does not have 3D Touch and it still has the first 
generation touch Id home button. In the 6S/6S Plus this was upgraded to a 
faster and I think more reliable second generation touch Id home button.

The fact is that the iPhone 6S/6S Plus came out in the fall of 2015 and while 
the SE was released in spring of 2016 it is as I said basically a device of 
that generation so by now 3 years old.

Also, there is little point in upgrading to iOS 11 now when iOS 12 will be 
released to the public in 2 weeks. iOS 12 is going to be better at the first 
12.0 release than iOS 11.4.1 is which was released in early July and which I 
think is the latest iOS 11 release.

You may not need or want the latest and greatest and that’s perfectly fine, but 
I would at least wait since there are rumours that Apple may update the SE as 
well although this may not be announced in this keynote, it could verywell be a 
muchmore silent upgrade, but like I said, to buy an iPhone a week before the 
major annual keynote is not the best choice. Even if the SE is discontinued, 
there will still be inventory for a little while afterwards and carriers will 
be looking to get rid of that. Also, Also, which capacity is it that is being 
offered for $100 by your carrier? I just had a look on the Apple website and 
here in Canada I can buy a brandnew unlocked iPhone SE 32Gb from Apple without 
any contract for $479 canadian, I assume this wold be $350 in the US, the 
second option, the 128Gb model, is $599 Canadian, probably it would be $450 in 
the US. If your carriers still charges $100 and requires you to lock yourself 
into a 2-year plan then that is not such a hot deal in my opinion.

If places like Best Buy or Target in the US have inventory after next week 
there is a good chance you’ll be able to get an even better deal.

 

Regards,

Sieghard

Re: Seeking Advice on Upgrading from iPhone 5 to iPhone SE

2018-09-05 Thread Lisa Belville
Craig, I went from a four years old iPhone 5 to an SE last year and have 
no regrets.  If you're used to the feel and layout of the iPhone 5, the 
SE will fit perfectly into your life without a steep learning curve.  
It's faster and the battery lasts longer.  it's also a bit lighter and 
thinner than the iPhone 5, but most iPhone cases designed for the 5 or 
5S work fine with it.


I checked out the 6, 6S, 7 and 8 at the Verizon store and they were just 
too big for me.  I get it, sighted people like to watch things, but for 
those of us with smaller hands, the SE is perfect.


Maybe it doesn't have some of the newest tech, but it gets the job 
done.  There's nothing I can't do with my current phone, so I'll 
probably keep it until it can't be updated anymore or the battery gives out.

Hello, everyone.

I am considering replacing my iPhone with an iPhone SE since my carrier 
is offering the latter for $100.  I don't want a phone with lots of 
bells and whistles, but I would like one that runs iOS 11X, which the 
iPhone does not allow.  Are there compelling reasons why I should not 
upgrade to the SE?  Thanks for any advice.

Re: iCloud backup versus encrypted iTunes backup

2018-09-05 Thread Anna Dresner
Hi Alan and all,

How interesting that apps were loaded from your iTunes backup. When my daughter 
restored from an iTunes backup a year ago, all her apps were loaded from the 
cloud. That's why I thought they were always loaded from the cloud regardless 
of which kind of backup you do. I wish Apple would explain what's going on so 
we didn't have to guess!

Re: iCloud backup versus encrypted iTunes backup

2018-09-05 Thread Kimber Gardner
Admittedly, I haven't done an encrypted backup in a while. What do you
mean by you can no longer backup apps to your local computer? Does
that mean the mobile apps folder is no longer present in windows
explorer?

I used to back up my apps folder before doing major apps updates just
in case some of my favorite apps got broken. What a shame if that is
no longer possible.

Macaron wins the Australian Dyson award

2018-09-05 Thread Yuma Decaux
Hi everyone,

Yuma from oseyeris here. Before I head off to see 5 astrophysics phds from my 
uni to discuss everything about space, stars galaxies and of course, Astreos, I 
wanted to give y'all a heads-up on something else.

As we are a hardware/software for (currently for mac/IOS) crew that tackles all 
sorts of things that tends to complicate our lives as blind individuals who 
either have active lifestyles, go to uni, want to create or do things sighted 
people do, we have been awarded the prestigious Dyson award for the national 
competition in Australia for our Macaron, the universal access smart tape 
measure.

i wish I could send everyone a unit so you can feel it in your hands, play with 
the magnets that attach things together and make the process of measuring an 
amazing one, play with the app, etc. And I wish you could compare it with some 
previous prototypes we worked on just to see how cool it is now, but for the 
moment I invite you to have a read at the process and the journey in getting 
there. link is below:

And here's a radio appearance during rush hour from 4RBC:

Just wanted to share the excitement we have within our team for this, and I 
would like to invite you to Like our Facebook page below to keep up with what 
we have coming through, including an "efficiently accessible" Trello desktop 
app, more 3D tutorial podcasts with a better format, a free music sampling and 
mixing tool, and much more.

Keep your ears peeled for the next update of Astreos due within days.

Have a great day y'all

Well to keep it from going to portrait or landscape that’s in another setting 
of which you can access to Waze one is where you can touch the screen where it 
says the time, you can flick up with three fingers to get to it, or there’s a 
setting in your notifications settings I believe. For me though, I keep it in 
portrait.

Re: iphone 5s hd quality calling?

Yes Gordon that's right it depends on your carriers services and not on the

Subject: Re: iphone 5s hd quality calling?

I think this is more of a carrier specific software issue. For example:
my daughter has a Metro PCS branded phone and I'm on T-mobile. The HD
voice works well when we talk. Last year she cracked her screen so I
gave her one of my unlocked phones I had laying around and it didn't
offer HD voice quality when we talked, yet the phone does support HD
voice. So I believe that for HD voice to work you would need software
from the carrier that you're attempting to use it on.

Travel websites

Hello,

 

Over the years, I have noticed that travel website such as Priceline and
many others have become difficult if not impossible to navigate using JAWS. 

Anyone out there have a favorite travel booking site that is navigable with
JAWS?

 

Thanks,

It’s in 
Display and brightness, you asked whether or not you needed that option, well 
it’s up to you, if you wanna keep your phone off lock screen when you’re not 
using it.

Subject: Macaron wins the Australian Dyson award

Hi everyone,

Yuma from oseyeris here. Before I head off to see 5 astrophysics phds from my 
uni to discuss everything about space, stars galaxies and of course, Astreos, I 
wanted to give y'all a heads-up on something else.

As we are a hardware/software for (currently for mac/IOS) crew that tackles all 
sorts of things that tends to complicate our lives as blind individuals who 
either have active lifestyles, go to uni, want to create or do things sighted 
people do, we have been awarded the prestigious Dyson award for the national 
competition in Australia for our Macaron, the universal access smart tape 
measure.

i wish I could send everyone a unit so you can feel it in your hands, play with 
the magnets that attach things together and make the process of measuring an 
amazing one, play with the app, etc. And I wish you could compare it with some 
previous prototypes we worked on just to see how cool it is now, but for the 
moment I invite you to have a read at the process and the journey in getting 
there. link is below:

https://www.oseyeris.com/post/macaron-wins-australian-national-james-dyson-award-led-by-qut-and-uq-students

We're being featured everywhere here down South, here are some links:

And here's a radio appearance during rush hour from 4RBC:

https://www.4bc.com.au/podcast/qut-team-wins-james-dyson-award/

Just wanted to share the excitement we have within our team for this, and I 
would like to invite you to Like our Facebook page below to keep up with what 
we have coming through, including an "efficiently accessible" Trello desktop 
app, more 3D tutorial podcasts with a better format, a free music sampling and 
mixing tool, and much more.

Keep your ears peeled for the next update of Astreos due within days.

Have a great day y'all

If you wanted to stop from going between portrait and landscape, you need to 
lock the orientation. That is performed in control center.

The iphone 5S does not support voice over LTE which is usually what is
called HD calling, you will need to upgrade to a newer phone to get
that feature.

my friend also has a iphone 10 if memory serves and when ever I called
him on my android phone I talked to him in the hd quality quality kicked 
in.



how ever when I try to call him using my iphone 5s the call goes threw
as a normal phone call with the same every day phone quality. from also
what I am able to find out the iphone 5s does support hd quality voice
on phone calls so it should be working.



this phone is unlocked so am not sure if it has to be locked down to a

RE: 1Password or just Keychain?

2018-09-05 Thread Cristobal Muñoz
There was a rumor a few weeks ago about Apple acquiring AgileBits outright: 
https://9to5mac.com/2018/07/10/apple-not-buying-1password/
Seems Apple hooked up all its employees with a 1Password family subscription 
around the same time. 
As the article above notes however, the 1Password team knocked that rumor down 
for what it's worth. It could also just be the company covering its butt to 
avoid any bumps in the road if there is in fact anything going on behind closed 
doors as far as an acquisition
With iOS 12, there is also supposed to be greater integration with 
apps/services like this to make the sign in process a whole lot smoother and 
cut down on the steps needed to log in.
Indeed, as someone else noted, 1Password does more than just save log ins. I 
use it for lots of items.

RE: Screen Lock.

2018-09-05 Thread Carolyn Arnold
Oh, no, I don't want to do that. I thought there was something that would keep 
it going from Portrait to Landscape, but even so, I am not sure if there would 
be an advantage to doing that.

If you wanted to stop from going between portrait and landscape, you need to

Re: Seeking Advice on Upgrading from iPhone 5 to iPhone SE

2018-09-05 Thread Mike Arrigo
I have both an SE and an iphone 8, there are times when I prefer to 
carry a smaller phone, there's really not much of a speed difference, 
it's definitely faster than the iphone 5 you are upgrading from, you 
will notice a big improvement, if you like that phone size, go for it, 
it's a great phone.

I can tell you that I really, I mean really like my SE. I have had a 4S

Hello, everyone.


I am considering replacing my iPhone with an iPhone SE since my carrier 
is offering the latter for $100.  I don't want a phone with lots of 
bells and whistles, but I would like one that runs iOS 11X, which the 
iPhone does not allow.  Are there compelling reasons why I should not 
upgrade to the SE?  Thanks for any advice.

Yes, the iPhoneSE  Closely Resembles the iPhone5 
& iPhone5S in Shape & FormFactor, but  it comes 
Equipped With the Specs of the iPhone6S with the 
Probable Exception of the TouchID scanner  for 
FingerPrintReader, which I beleive  is the Same 
as the TouchID, which appeared on the iPhone5S
Personally, I,Robin would Recommend & Suggest 
HoldinOff & Waiting to See if Apple refreshes the 
SE LineUP ... I don't Think a Refresher is in the 
Plans especially in the SE FormFactor: Shape & Size


I,Robin Love MySE, but I wouldn't Purchase

Maybe it doesn't have some of the newest tech,

RE: iCloud backup versus encrypted iTunes backup

Kimber,

I still have a Mobile Applications folder on my computer which I can access 
with Windows Explorer but the latest date of any of the apps in it is October 
of 2017. Also, any apps I've installed since iTunes stopped supporting local 
backups aren't there.

Admittedly, I haven't done an encrypted backup in a while. What do you mean by 
you can no longer backup apps to your local computer? Does that mean the mobile 
apps folder is no longer present in windows explorer?

I used to back up my apps folder before doing major apps updates just in case 
some of my favorite apps got broken. What a shame if that is no longer possible.

Re: iphone 5s hd quality calling?

2018-09-05 Thread Jeffrey Shockley
Hello,
I might be wrong on this, but I think that phone only supports data over LTE, 
only and that’s it as far as LTE goes so no WiFi calling or anything like that.
Hope this helps,

Hi Keith,
 
Both types of backups back up all of the same information. If you restore from 
a backup, even iTunes backups download your apps from the app store if you 
restore from them, so there isn't a speed advantage in restoring from iTunes 
either. I would suggest backing up with icloud on a regular basis and doing an 
encrypted iTunes backup before you get a new device so that if you have to 
restore from the backup, the iTunes one is available in case something is wrong 
with the iCloud one.

Re: iCloud backup versus encrypted iTunes backup

2018-09-05 Thread Arnold Schmidt
As I said in another message, I will be delighted if I am wrong about the 
following. If one has any books saved in Kindle or Bard, they will not restore 
from iClouth and will have to be downloaded again, they will be restored from 
an encrypted backup. Also, any books in Voice Dream will not restore from 
ICloud, unless the iCloud storage feature in Voice Dream is enabled first. I 
hope Winston has gotten that feature to be more reliable now than it once was, 
I have read many threads about how people's libraries got all messed up by it. 
Again, it very well may be all right now. Any other books, such as those in  
Learning Ally will not restore from iCloud, but should from an encrypted 
backup. Finally, I know that music is not backed up in ICloud. Your music 
library from Apple Music is there, but not any downloads. Any music on your 
device from cd's on your hard drive that were on the device will not be 
restored in an ICloud backup. If none of these things matter, then an ICloud 
backup is fine. An ICloud backup  surely is better than nothing,  if something 
goes wrong with your device when you are not near your home computer and you 
have to restore it.

Re: iCloud backup versus encrypted iTunes backup

2018-09-05 Thread Arnold Schmidt
I  will be delighted if I am wrong about this, but starting with ITunes 12.7, 
apps no longer  are backed up to an encrypted backup.  When one restores the 
device, the  latest version of the app is restored to the device. Also, 
remember that if you have spent any time arranging your home screens the way 
you want them, or making folders for apps, I think  all that will be gone  and 
the apps will appear in alphabetical order.  I do not know if the customized 
screens will be restored from an encrypted backup or not, I do not think they 
are restored from an ICloud backup. They use to be restored from an encrypted 
backup.

The one advantage encrypted backups have is that you can return to a previous

the latest version of your apps.

Seeking Advice on Upgrading from iPhone 5 to iPhone SE

2018-09-05 Thread Craig Werner
Hello, everyone.

I am considering replacing my iPhone with an iPhone SE since my carrier is
offering the latter for $100.  I don't want a phone with lots of bells and
whistles, but I would like one that runs iOS 11X, which the iPhone does not
allow.  Are there compelling reasons why I should not upgrade to the SE?
Thanks for any advice.

Craig

Last time I checked Expedia seemed OK, but if you have an iPhone using the

true for some others like Kayak. Not sure how the respective Android apps are.

Hi everyone,

Yuma from oseyeris here. Before I head off to see 5 astrophysics phds from my 
uni to discuss everything about space, stars galaxies and of course, Astreos, I 
wanted to give y'all a heads-up on something else.

As we are a hardware/software for (currently for mac/IOS) crew that tackles all 
sorts of things that tends to complicate our lives as blind individuals who 
either have active lifestyles, go to uni, want to create or do things sighted 
people do, we have been awarded the prestigious Dyson award for the national 
competition in Australia for our Macaron, the universal access smart tape 
measure.

i wish I could send everyone a unit so you can feel it in your hands, play with 
the magnets that attach things together and make the process of measuring an 
amazing one, play with the app, etc. And I wish you could compare it with some 
previous prototypes we worked on just to see how cool it is now, but for the 
moment I invite you to have a read at the process and the journey in getting 
there. link is below:

If you're going to set it to 32%, I think you might as well just let it

don't have any trouble reading it.

Re: Seeking Advice on Upgrading from iPhone 5 to iPhone SE

2018-09-05 Thread Kelly Pierce
Craig,

A sleek 2018 iPhone might be affordable if you use a gigabyte or two
of data a month. If your usage is low to moderate, the major carriers
do not offer the cheapest plans. Bestmvno.com lists the cheapest cell
phone plans from virtual network operators. If you have a costlier
plan with a major carrier, switching to a cheaper plan would allow the
savings to be applied to the newer and more expensive phone.

Hi. I have both, because 1Password offers more than just passwords. For

Makes it a breeze not only for easy recall but also for easy typing on these

I like my SE, but right now is probably the worst time of the year to either 
buy an older phone or commit to any sort of contract payment structure for one. 
By next week, you'll probably be able to score a better deal for the phone you 
want. Be it a newer one or older one since everyone and their momma who's 
interested in upgrading will be itching to get rid of their older devices or

Remember though that because the phones that'll come out next week will

possibly named iPhone 9 or even iPhone 11. All will be revealed next week.

Hello, everyone.

I am considering replacing my iPhone with an iPhone SE since my 
carrier is offering the latter for $100. I don't want a phone with 
lots of bells and whistles, but I would like one that runs iOS 11X, 
which the iPhone does not allow.  Are there compelling reasons why I 
should not upgrade to the SE?  Thanks for any advice.

Is the flicktype keyboard available to bring up within a text edit field, or do 
you still have to copy and paste the text?

With the Flicktype keyboard, currently only offered in english and I think a

Hi,
Yes, if you subscribe for just $0.99 per month.

I use it all the time, on my iPhone x and 9.7 inch iPad pro.

It works very well, with or without VoiceOver.

Re: Seeking Advice on Upgrading from iPhone 5 to iPhone SE

2018-09-05 Thread Michael Feir
The SE certainly wouldn't be something I'd considdr at this point. There
are many more things besides screen size which change between models and
most of these changes will have an effect on what we do as blind users. For
instance, the processing power in even the cheepest new iPHONE will be
vastly superior to that of the SE. This can help in all sorts of ways
especially when multi-tasking. The modems and antennas will improve which
will result in less data used and better connectivity. Even the camera
improvements can make a real difference to results of document reading or
item identification.

Hello harry,
I use a combination of both, and don't pay for 1password, because I use it

I hope this helps, and feel free to let me know if you have any questions.

Re: Seeking Advice on Upgrading from iPhone 5 to iPhone SE

2018-09-05 Thread 'christopher hallsworth' via VIPhone
Hi. Absolutely up to you on this one, but FYI Apple will be holding a special 
event next week with their new iPhones. If the rumours out there are true, the 
SE could be replaced with a 6.1-inch iPhone, possibly named iPhone 9 or even 
iPhone 11. All will be revealed next week.

Re: 1Password or just Keychain?

2018-09-05 Thread 'christopher hallsworth' via VIPhone
Hi. I have both, because 1Password offers more than just passwords. For 
example, I store secure notes, credit cards, etc etc. I know iCloud does the 
latter, but 1Password even stores the CVV for the credit card(s) I wish to use. 
Makes it a breeze not only for easy recall but also for easy typing on these 
screens *smile*. So yes, 1Password offers more than just storing and syncing 
passwords and credit cards.

Good point, Christopher.  I know about the upcoming Apple grand

Hi Craig

personally unless you have enough sight to see the screen then I can't 
see that it's necessary to have the latest and greatest which I believe 
are all larger than the se.  I am currently using the se and will keep 
it until it can't be updated any more or there's something I want' to do 
that can't be done on the se.  Once the new phones come out you might 
find the se gets even cheaper.

RE: Seeking Advice on Upgrading from iPhone 5 to iPhone SE

2018-09-05 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
Hi Craig,

Yes, but if you wait a week or two you will probably get an SE for free 
although I would advise against the SE. The SE is basically a 6S with respect 
to processor and so on, of course it has the smaller 4 inch screen and unlike 
the 6S/6S Plus, the SE does not have 3D Touch and it still has the first 
generation touch Id home button. In the 6S/6S Plus this was upgraded to a 
faster and I think more reliable second generation touch Id home button.
The fact is that the iPhone 6S/6S Plus came out in the fall of 2015 and while 
the SE was released in spring of 2016 it is as I said basically a device of 
that generation so by now 3 years old.
Also, there is little point in upgrading to iOS 11 now when iOS 12 will be 
released to the public in 2 weeks. iOS 12 is going to be better at the first 
12.0 release than iOS 11.4.1 is which was released in early July and which I 
think is the latest iOS 11 release.
You may not need or want the latest and greatest and that’s perfectly fine, but 
I would at least wait since there are rumours that Apple may update the SE as 
well although this may not be announced in this keynote, it could verywell be a 
muchmore silent upgrade, but like I said, to buy an iPhone a week before the 
major annual keynote is not the best choice. Even if the SE is discontinued, 
there will still be inventory for a little while afterwards and carriers will 
be looking to get rid of that. Also, Also, which capacity is it that is being 
offered for $100 by your carrier? I just had a look on the Apple website and 
here in Canada I can buy a brandnew unlocked iPhone SE 32Gb from Apple without 
any contract for $479 canadian, I assume this wold be $350 in the US, the 
second option, the 128Gb model, is $599 Canadian, probably it would be $450 in 
the US. If your carriers still charges $100 and requires you to lock yourself 
into a 2-year plan then that is not such a hot deal in my opinion.
If places like Best Buy or Target in the US have inventory after next week 
there is a good chance you’ll be able to get an even better deal.

Good point, Christopher.  I know about the upcoming Apple grand presentation, 
but even if the 9 or something like it materializes, the low price tag on the 
SE is something to consider.  Thanks for responding.

Hi. Absolutely up to you on this one, but FYI Apple will be holding a special 
event next week with their new iPhones. If the rumours out there are true, the 
SE could be replaced with a 6.1-inch iPhone, possibly named iPhone 9 or even 
iPhone 11. All will be revealed next week.

Hello, everyone.

I am considering replacing my iPhone with an iPhone SE since my carrier is 
offering the latter for $100.  I don't want a phone with lots of bells and 
whistles, but I would like one that runs iOS 11X, which the iPhone does not 
allow.  Are there compelling reasons why I should not upgrade to the SE?  
Thanks for any advice.

Craig
