Chris,
I just tried this on my iPhone 8 running the latest iOS, and all I was told 
about was faces. What phone and which iOS are you running?
Thanks, looks very interesting, Sandy

RE: My new iPhone

[Kevin Minor]

Hi.

I tried the method mentioned, but there was a major problem. When I tried to 
enter the code on my old iPhone, there was no keypad on the screen to use, and 
I think my Bluetooth keyboard was already unpaired from it.

Just my experience. For me, all was well thanks to an iCloud backup. Even my 
old Apple Watch worked with my new phone.

For me, having set up phone to phone 3 of these, you can do it independently:
1.-Power on the new phone and turn Voiceover on it of course.
2.-after selecting the country and language, they’ll be a Popup in which you 
can select Manusl etup,thus have your old phone ready for this; have them both 
plugged into power just in case.
3.-within the Manual setup, you’ll have to enter a 6-digit pin the new phone 
displays, into the new one, and away it goes!

Re: Playing with the camera app

[Richard Turner]

This is why I always read the Applevis.com blog upon each release of iOS, 
iPadOS, or WatchOS.
The live text feature came in iOS 15 last September.
There is also a podcast by Thomas Donnville on the live text feature.
You can read that blog post here:
https://www.applevis.com/blog/apple-releases-ios-15-ipados-15-bringing-focus-modes-live-text-enhancements-multitasking

I do not recall if older phones cannot perform the live text do to their chip 
limitation; but a call to Apple Accessibility would answer that. 1-877-204-3930

RE: Playing with the camera app

[Christopher Chaltain]

True, but when I read that post and other articles on the web, it sounded like 
the live text feature was just for OCR on text and the image recognition 
feature only worked on photos. Obviously, I could have read things wrong, but I 
was still surprised when placing VoiceOver focus in the view finder of my 
camera app instantly recognized object and did OCR on any text it came across 
all at the same time.

Re: My new iPhone

[Michael Feir]

I believe that you might be experiencing a feature called reachability.
It's designed for larger iPhones and essentially causes the top items
displayed on the screen to move down so they're easier to reach. Go into
accessibility settings and into the touch section. Find and double tap on
the reachability setting to toggle it off. That should eliminate the swish
sound. You shouldn't actually need the reachability feature on a smaller
iPhone.

My new iPhone

[Karen Poulakos]

Recently got a new iPhone SE2022.  Everything went fine with the wireless
set up.  everything, including my settings transferred correctly.  So I'm
really happy with it.

There is one strange thing happening that I can't figure out.  I have
haptics turned off, and the home button sensitivity set to 3.  Occasionally,
when I move my finger around the screen, or press on the Home button, I hear
a  light swish sound, similar to the one you hear when sending an email or
text.  It's so inconsistant, and infrequent, that I can't figure out what
I'm doing that is causing it.

Has anyone else experienced this?

Re: My new iPhone

[Richard Turner]

As for that annoying swish when moving around; try turning off reachability.
Put reachability in the search field at the top of the settings screen to find 
out where it lives.
This is a good method when one isn't sure in which submenu a setting is located.

HTH,





Richard

RE: My new iPhone

[Fanus Buys]

Good Day
I intend getting a SE 2022 but previously I struggled to do a transfer of apps 
and data from the old phone. I could not succeed in holding the new phone over 
the circle or whatever on the old phone’s screen. Did you manage this without 
sighted help and if so, what exactly did you do?

Re: My new iPhone

[Gerardo Corripio]

For me, having set up phone to phone 3 of these, you can do it independently:
1.-Power on the new phone and turn Voiceover on it of course.
2.-after selecting the country and language, they’ll be a Popup in which you 
can select Manusl etup,thus have your old phone ready for this; have them both 
plugged into power just in case.
3.-within the Manual setup, you’ll have to enter a 6-digit pin the new phone 
displays, into the new one, and away it goes!

Thanks for the steps but your step 3 is a bit strange. You say 3.-within the

Hi.

 

I tried the method mentioned, but there was a major problem. When I tried to 
enter the code on my old iPhone, there was no keypad on the screen to use, and 
I think my Bluetooth keyboard was already unpaired from it.

 

Just my experience. For me, all was well thanks to an iCloud backup. Even my

Thanks for the steps but your step 3 is a bit strange. You say 3.-within the 
Manual setup, you’ll have to enter a 6-digit pin the new phone displays, into 
the new one, and away it goes! I guess you meant the old phone displays the 
code which you have to type on the new phone?

Hi.

I tried the method mentioned, but there was a major problem. When I tried to 
enter the code on my old iPhone, there was no keypad on the screen to use, and 
I think my Bluetooth keyboard was already unpaired from it.

Just my experience. For me, all was well thanks to an iCloud backup. Even my 
old Apple Watch worked with my new phone.

For me, having set up phone to phone 3 of these, you can do it independently:
1.-Power on the new phone and turn Voiceover on it of course.
2.-after selecting the country and language, they’ll be a Popup in which you 
can select Manusl etup,thus have your old phone ready for this; have them both 
plugged into power just in case.
3.-within the Manual setup, you’ll have to enter a 6-digit pin the new phone

Recently got a new iPhone SE2022.  Everything went fine with the wireless
set up.  everything, including my settings transferred correctly.  So I'm
really happy with it.

There is one strange thing happening that I can't figure out.  I have
haptics turned off, and the home button sensitivity set to 3.  Occasionally,
when I move my finger around the screen, or press on the Home button, I hear
a  light swish sound, similar to the one you hear when sending an email or
text.  It's so inconsistant, and infrequent, that I can't figure out what
I'm doing that is causing it.

Has anyone else experienced this?

scanning amazon gift cards

[Donald Raikes]

Hi,

I have received a number of amazon gift cards recently, and I was
wondering if anyone has used the amazon app to try tot scan the gift
cards into their amazon account?

I haven't found a way to find the barcode or whatever the app uses
with the camera.

I tried going to the amazon website and entering the giftcards
manually, but they require use of an inaccessible captia to redeem a
giftcard.

Any thoughts would be helpful.

TIA,

RE: scanning amazon gift cards

[Sieghard Weitzel]

With a gift card the barcode can only be either on the one side or the other. I 
suggest when you are in the correct place in the app to put the gift card on a 
table, put the phone on top and line it up so the camera lens is approx. in the 
middle, then try to lift your phone straight up from the card, probably all 
that is needed is 4 or 6 inches for a credit size card. Hold it still for a 
moment and if that doesn't do anything repeat with the other side. If you find 
it easier you could try it the other way around, put the phone on the table 
with the back camera facing up after opening the Amazon app and going to the 
right place, then put the gift card on top of the camera and lift it straight 
up about 4 or 6 inches. I have done this with Apple gift cards and done it both 
ways successfully.

You can of course use Aira or Be My Eyes if you want to first find out where 
exactly the barcodes are, e.g. which side and where on the card, e.g. top left, 
middle, bottom centre etc. Put down all cards either with the barcode side down 
or up as you prefer and then try the above. I know Aira can take pictures with 
the regular camera app, not sure if they could actually remotely do these 
barcodes for you and add them to your system. I guess if you had a membership 
they could log into your computer remotely and do it for you there after 
writing down all the numbers first, but that certainly wouldn't be possible in 
a 5-minute or less free call.


Best regards,
Sieghard

RE: NFL stream service

[Christopher Chaltain]

Hmm, I have a few questions about this.

I wonder if TuneIn will still be carrying the  radio broadcasts of the NFL 
games.

I wonder if this will be accessible. I didn't find the NFL Game Pass 
accessible. It was so bad, and the NFL Game Pass Support didn't care that there 
app wasn't accessible, so I went as far as submitting a complaint to the DoJ 
under the ADA. The DoJ thanked me for filing a complaint and said they'd keep 
it in the records in case they ever decided to take any action against the NFL. 
I recently got a response to my support ticket asking if there was anything 
else they could do, but I said that between TuneIn carrying the games and my 
complaint to the DoJ, I was good.

This price is a lot cheaper then it used to be when you had to shell out $99 a 
year to get access to the radio broadcasts, but it's still quite a bit more 
expensive than the NBA where you get all of the radio broadcasts for the entire 
season for $10.

This is probably old news to everyone, but I just stumbled across something, 
and I’m so excited, I want to share. This is how clueless I am, but I was 
looking for a screen recording I’d just done, and not knowing where else to 
look, I brought up the camera app. While I was exploring the camera app, I 
heard it announcing things like no people, keyboard, … I realized it was 
telling me what was on my desk! After playing around, I found out that if you 
move focus to the top to the view finder, the camera app will read text to you 
and identify objects. I ran downstairs to show my wife, and I heard it say “cat 
on a flat surface with a laptop and a glass with a beverage”. I was pointing it 
at my kitchen table which had our cat on it, waiting to be fed, my wife’s 
laptop and her glass of sparkling water! It’s not going to replace the Seeing 
AI app for me yet, but it seemed awfully fast and accurate!

RE: How to end a sentence

[Christopher Chaltain]

I never have a problem on the iPhone, but when I was playing around with 
dictation on Windows 10, to get periods inserted, I had to experiment with how 
to say period to get it recognized as a punctuation symbol. I'd try different 
pauses before you say period, and saying period in different voices.

Help! I'm still going  nuts when using dictate, with ending my sentences with a 
period. I end up with P E R I  O D instead of a dot.  what is the official way 
to put a period at the end of the sentence? .

Re: within voice dream reader, connecting to Book Share does not offer downloads option

[William James]

I have seen this with various books.  What you can do is log onto BookShare via 
Safari and download it that way.  it could be that a format is not supported by 
VDR that it sees but the site will let you change the format.

Re: NFL stream service

Hmm, I have a few questions about this.
 
I wonder if TuneIn will still be carrying the  radio broadcasts of the NFL games.
 
I wonder if this will be accessible. I didn’t find the NFL Game Pass accessible. It was so bad, and the NFL Game Pass Support didn’t care that there app wasn’t accessible, so I went as far as submitting a complaint to the DoJ under the
 ADA. The DoJ thanked me for filing a complaint and said they’d keep it in the records in case they ever decided to take any action against the NFL. I recently got a response to my support ticket asking if there was anything else they could do, but I said that
 between TuneIn carrying the games and my complaint to the DoJ, I was good.
 
This price is a lot cheaper then it used to be when you had to shell out $99 a year to get access to the radio broadcasts, but it’s still quite a bit more expensive than the NBA where you get all of the radio broadcasts for the entire season
 for $10.
