Re: Bug with stopping recording in voice memos

I usually double-tap with one finger to pause recording as VO does not change focus. I never thought of using a two-finger double-tap. On an iPhone running iOS 7.1.1, two-finger double-tap does not pause or stop the recording, so this may be an older bug. David Chittenden, MSc, MRCAA Email

Holding the home and power buttons for 10 seconds is a safe reset. It should only be used when turning the iOS device off, and then on again does not fix the problem. When done, iOS will take longer to reboot because it rebuilds the driver stacks. David Chittenden, MSc, MRCAA Email: dchitten

No, that is a different command which only works when VO is active and crashes the springboard. People no longer recommend it, so I would rather not say the command. David Chittenden, MSc, MRCAA Email: dchitten...@gmail.com Mobile: +64 21 2288 288 Sent from my iPhone On 3 Jul 2014, at 7:12

the battery, rather than the mains is being used. So, if it is the mic, the monitoring should stop. If it is a different process that is incorrectly activating, then more information will be available, and the bug has a greater chance of properly being located eventually.
