Hi Chip, As far as I can see there is no such thing as “advanced” iMessage or Facetime features. iMessage and Facetime either work or they don’t, if you have an iPhone and the other person has an iPhone or iOS device with iMessage and Facetime enabled then both features work and can be used

Hi Todd, I think Dave was merely asking if the 10.1.1 update fixed the bug. I don’t know if Dave reported it to Apple Accessibility, but I have done so and I’m sure others have and this one is easy to reproduce since it seems to be very consistent. Any time you make an outgoing phone call

Hi Alan, Maybe try pressing the home button first and then ad the volume button and see if that makes a difference. Maybe you pressed the volume button a bit before the home button and that is why the volume got turned down. Just a guess on my part, I am going to stick with my 6S Plus until

I was under the impression that any sort of braille accessibility was also part of Voiceover which means Voiceover has to run in order for braille to work. If you don't need the speech part of Voiceover you can mute speech with a 3-finger double tap, this way you get all the benefits of

I believe there is a legit reason for having both the Iphone and mobile labels: this controls access to Iphone specific functionality such as advanced Imessage features, and FaceTime (which cannot be done with a non-Iphone). Chip From: viphone@googlegroups.com
