Re: Using the stereo microphones on the iPhone

I've never had any issues doing 4 finger taps and double taps. I use 4 fingers on the screen to get from the top to the bottom of the screen on my iPhone and so on. On 8/6/20, Anna Dresner wrote: > Hi Richard and all, > > I confirmed that while in Camera settings on my new sE there's a control

Re: Using the stereo microphones on the iPhone

Hi Richard and all, I confirmed that while in Camera settings on my new sE there's a control for turning stereo recording on or off, there isn't in Voice Memos settings in the beta. So it doesn't look like they're planning to include stereo recording for Voice Memos, though of course, they

RE: Ending A Voice Mail message Question Please.

Hi Alan, Thank you for this, I just tried that, but it didn’t work. There is no pause button that shows up on the screen, so I pressed the play button to see if the play button would change in to a pause button, but again still it didn’t work. I can’t seem to stop the message from playing.

Well, the alexa app works fine on iOS devices, so it is appropriate for this list. However, referring to Alexa as the Lady device, was nowhere near clear. I had posted information on how to set up a guest account on someone’s Alexa device, but that isn’t going to get her what she needs anyway.
