If you don't do either of these things and you have the phone in landscape view, with the long sides facing you, many screens switch to a view that is similar to iPad screens. This happens, for example, in Settings, Messages, and Mail. So you can choose whether to make the iPad-like views available or not.

Discussion about how we like to use our phones If willing to accept a learning curve and starting from scratch with a new operating system, it’s possible to do practically most every day tasks accomplished with a computer using iOS devices. Examples are: Listening to favorite cds, books from CNIB or bookshare or many other commercial reading sources, internet radio. Surfing the web, reading Emails writing mails and text messages,Taking notes using an external keyboard or writing on the iOS device using Braille input or taking audio recording memos. Blindness specific aids such as OCR, reading pdf files, planning routes and getting orientation info similar with tracker, light detector etc. Social advantage of using devices that everyone else uses. Further, the interface we use is similar enough to relate and receive and give help with operating iOS devices to sighted users. Difficulties when starting out with iOS Orientation without buttons, learning the physical layout of the screen. Performing gestures efficiently. Text input and keypad use. Areas where current cisg members using iOS want to expand in future meetings MBraille and other Braille input options on the iphone. Surfing the web efficiently with safari. Using BlindSquare, a gps app with lots of features. Making phone calls efficiently dealing with extension and keying in options once the call is in progress such as voicemail passwords. Exploring skype on the iPhone. Potentially looking at emailing with iphone? Please add any topics here you’d like addressed in our next meetings. Where do we go from here? Leo works with Apple store for workshop in May. Goal is to give anyone considering apple devices a hands-on overview of what they can expect and provide follow-up options to learn more about them. Meeting for current iOS users where we can teach and explore hands on topics presented in previous item in this agenda. Date for meetings to be is yet decided upon. Here is where I had to sign off. Please add anything I might have missed. It was a pleasure to chat and exchange with those who were on the call and I am looking forward to future meetings.

NPR One App Question
Hi all, I’ve been using the NPR One app and, as others have said, am finding it quite accessible. I am confused on one aspect though, the slider at the bottom of the screen when a program is playing. The slider gives percentages which I assume means how much of the program has completed. What is confusing though is that voice over says adjustable, swipe up down to adjust. There is already a rewind button so I’m not sure why one would want to decrease the percentage. And I’ve been totally unsuccessful at increasing the percentage complete or fast forwarding.Does someone know how to fast forward through a program? Or am I wrong as to the purpose of this slider? Also, sometimes a button labelled interesting appears. I’m guessing one can click this if you like the program the app will tend towards more programs of that type. Unfortunately this button does not show up all the time. Any ideas as to how this works? Is the button random? Thanks.

Re: New sirius Xm app
I don't like the new one quite as well yet. I played with it on my wife's phone, but kept mine at the previous version for now. When you bring up the channels, and this applies with categories as well, they are displayed in a vertical row in the center of the screen. You can double-tap to open up that category or to start playing a channel. In this respect, the new app is nice because it starts playing immediately and it doesn't appear to have the lag time the older version had. The other point is you get the channel names, whereas on the older version I think you got the name of the song and you had to guess at the channel. But, I had a couple instances when trying to flick up to bring the next page of channels into view when the app crashed. You can't have categories on the phone and navigate by heading to look at the channels in each category. And, you can't flick to get to the channels, you have to touch the one you want in the vertical row.

The first is channels where you can select channels to listen to and pick from categories. When you are on the channels screen there is also a button for on-demand too. Then there is the recent button which I believe tells you what you've most recently been listening to. Then there is the search button where you can search for a channel or show. Then there is the me which gives you settings and such. Then there is favorites and on the favorites you can choose between channels or shows. I love this new app. It's different than the old one but I think a lot better. The only little problem I have run into is when you select the channels tab it's hard to swipe through channels Also when you select favorites and press the channels button it's hard to swipe through your favorite channels. But, when you select favorites and shows you can swipe through those fine. Other than that little issue with swiping through the channels it's totally accessible to me. Hope that helps!

Once you plan your route in Google Maps, the maps you need are cached on your phone, so even if you lose network connectivity, Google Maps will still give you turn by turn directions until you reach your destination. On 03/20/2015 08:21 PM, Richard Turner wrote: I've read through most of the responses you have received. I'll go ahead and chime in though. First, it depends on what kind of information you most want. If you just want turn-by-turn directions, my personal favorite is Google Maps, especially with the latest update. You can do voice searches for destinations by name or address. It does a very good job and is completely voiceOver accessible and it is free. If you want to hear the cross streets as you are traveling and other information, then BlindSquare for $29.99 is very good. If you want excellent intersection information, including the angle of the cross streets, information about streets you are crossing, and a completely accessible turn-by-turn app, then spend the money for Seeing Eye GPS XT for $299.99 for a one time purchase, or Seeing Eye GPS subscription for $69.99 for one year or $129.99 for 3 years. If you come to an intersection that is not at a straight 90 degree turn, it will say something like SE 12th Street, 8 o'clock and 2 o'clock. Plus, one thing I like very much is that when it announces the cross street (if you have it set to simple intersections) it just says the name of the cross street and doesn't waste time speaking the street you are on. Mapquest is another free app that works quite well and is completely VoiceOver accessible. Motion X GPS is also quite popular at a low cost, which I don't recall right now. Navigon is also very good plus it stores the maps on your iPhone so you don't have to have an internet connection to use it. All the other ones store the maps in the cloud. Navigon is available in several packages; North America which includes Canada and the off-shore territories, Just the United States, or in regions like Western United States, Eastern United States and Central United States. Plus it is available for many other countries. But, there is no one Best GPS app as it really depends on personal preference and need.

RE: Another Aftershokz Bites the Dust.
Mine cracked a couple of months ago and I just performed surgery on them. I used an old credit card. Cut it longwise to fit the width of the band. Placed a piece on each side and wrapped it with electrical tape and all taken care of. I still have the warranty replacement unit I received in its box untouched. The sound function still worked fine and they were broken anyway, so I figured why not give it a try. The credit card plastic works well, because it’s got enough give to be flexible and is stirty to act as a good splint. The complaints of the unit being too flimsy and easy to break are valid, but as far as fixing the band and still getting them to work is relatively easy. Hopefully future versions of this product will improve upon its design and durability.

Re: NPR One App Question
Hi there Sherry, I am going to be getting the app but don’t have it yet. I’ll take a stab at these for you. You probably have two choices for fast forwarding and rewinding the program. So you can move the slider one way for fast forward and the other for rewind. Or you can the rewind and fast forward buttons provided. The Interesting button is exactly what you think it is. It’s to indicate to the app if you like a particular show.

I am confused on one aspect though, the slider at the bottom of the screen when a program is playing. The slider gives percentages which I assume means how much of the program has completed. What is confusing though is that voice over says adjustable, swipe up down to adjust. There is already a rewind button so I’m not sure why one would want to decrease the percentage. And I’ve been totally unsuccessful at increasing the percentage complete or fast forwarding.Does someone know how to fast forward through a program? Or am I wrong as to the purpose of this slider? Also, sometimes a button labelled interesting appears. I’m guessing one can click this if you like the program the app will tend towards more programs of that type. Unfortunately this button does not show up all the time. Any ideas as to how this works? Is the button random? Thanks.

Re: Workflow with variables help
Hi Alex, First of all, thanks for a great podcast. I am trying to create a workflow that adds recurring events numbered recursively. Event 1/8 event 2/8, event 3/8 etc. Here are the questions I have about this: 1 Using the set variable action I added it but could not find a way to tell it what it should store, just found a field for the variable name. Am I missing something there? 2. I added a calendar event to the workflow and then added the get name and get date from input actions, thinking I can then use the data from there in an other calendar event to be added in the workflow probably using the adjust dates action.

Re: Review of TiVo from an accessibility perspective.
Hey Jared, Nice review of the Tivo from an accessibility viewpoint. You nailed it. I have talked about Tivo on this list for a long time, but never have written up a blog and gone in to the detail you did. To those of you using Tivo are you able to get any of the described video? I have spent hours on the phone with Tivo and both Time Warner and now Verizon Fios and they claim either I cannot receive described video with a cable card or the cable company blames Tivo or vice versa for me not being able to receive any described video feeds. I have had sighted assistance make sure my Tivo is set up to use SAP audio when available but have yet to ever get anything with described video.

I've read through most of the responses you have received. I'll go ahead and chime in though. First, it depends on what kind of information you most want. If you just want turn-by-turn directions, my personal favorite is Google Maps, especially with the latest update. You can do voice searches for destinations by name or address. It does a very good job and is completely voiceOver accessible and it is free. If you want to hear the cross streets as you are traveling and other information, then BlindSquare for $29.99 is very good. If you want excellent intersection information, including the angle of the cross streets, information about streets you are crossing, and a completely accessible turn-by-turn app, then spend the money for Seeing Eye GPS XT for $299.99 for a one time purchase, or Seeing Eye GPS subscription for $69.99 for one year or $129.99 for 3 years. If you come to an intersection that is not at a straight 90 degree turn, it will say something like SE 12th Street, 8 o'clock and 2 o'clock. Plus, one thing I like very much is that when it announces the cross street (if you have it set to simple intersections) it just says the name of the cross street and doesn't waste time speaking the street you are on. Mapquest is another free app that works quite well and is completely VoiceOver accessible. Motion X GPS is also quite popular at a low cost, which I don't recall right now. Navigon is also very good plus it stores the maps on your iPhone so you don't have to have an internet connection to use it. All the other ones store the maps in the cloud. Navigon is available in several packages; North America which includes Canada and the off-shore territories, Just the United States, or in regions like Western United States, Eastern United States and Central United States. Plus it is available for many other countries. But, there is no one Best GPS app as it really depends on personal preference and need.

Discussion about how we like to use our phones If willing to accept a learning curve and starting from scratch with a new operating system, it’s possible to do practically most every day tasks accomplished with a computer using iOS devices. Examples are: Listening to favorite cds, books from CNIB or bookshare or many other commercial reading sources, internet radio. Surfing the web, reading Emails writing mails and text messages,Taking notes using an external keyboard or writing on the iOS device using Braille input or taking audio recording memos. Blindness specific aids such as OCR, reading pdf files, planning routes and getting orientation info similar with tracker, light detector etc. Social advantage of using devices that everyone else uses. Further, the interface we use is similar enough to relate and receive and give help with operating iOS devices to sighted users. Difficulties when starting out with iOS Orientation without buttons, learning the physical layout of the screen. Performing gestures efficiently. Text input and keypad use. Areas where current cisg members using iOS want to expand in future meetings MBraille and other Braille input options on the iphone. Surfing the web efficiently with safari. Using BlindSquare, a gps app with lots of features. Making phone calls efficiently dealing with extension and keying in options once the call is in progress such as voicemail passwords. Exploring skype on the iPhone. Potentially looking at emailing with iphone? Please add any topics here you’d like addressed in our next meetings. Where do we go from here?

Re: my iPhone book is out
Hi Sherrie and all, The iPhone 6 Plus screens are like the earlier iPhones if you lock the orientation in portrait mode or if you zoom the view. If you don't do either of these things and you have the phone in landscape view, with the long sides facing you, many screens switch to a view that is similar to iPad screens. This happens, for example, in Settings, Messages, and Mail. So you can choose whether to make the iPad-like views available or not.

Re: Best GPS App?
Although I have a couple of GPS apps on my iPhone 5s, they are only backups to my Trekker which I still think is the best. Every now and then I'll walk out the door with out a GPS and having a GPS app on my 5s is great for those just in case times I actually need it.

Thanks for listening! -Original Message- From: Richard Turner Sent: Friday, March 20, 2015 6:21 PM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: RE: Best GPS App? I've read through most of the responses you have received. I'll go ahead and chime in though. First, it depends on what kind of information you most want. If you just want turn-by-turn directions, my personal favorite is Google Maps, especially with the latest update. You can do voice searches for destinations by name or address. It does a very good job and is completely voiceOver accessible and it is free. If you want to hear the cross streets as you are traveling and other information, then BlindSquare for $29.99 is very good. If you want excellent intersection information, including the angle of the cross streets, information about streets you are crossing, and a completely accessible turn-by-turn app, then spend the money for Seeing Eye GPS XT for $299.99 for a one time purchase, or Seeing Eye GPS subscription for $69.99 for one year or $129.99 for 3 years. If you come to an intersection that is not at a straight 90 degree turn, it will say something like SE 12th Street, 8 o'clock and 2 o'clock. Plus, one thing I like very much is that when it announces the cross street (if you have it set to simple intersections) it just says the name of the cross street and doesn't waste time speaking the street you are on. Mapquest is another free app that works quite well and is completely VoiceOver accessible. Motion X GPS is also quite popular at a low cost, which I don't recall right now. Navigon is also very good plus it stores the maps on your iPhone so you don't have to have an internet connection to use it. All the other ones store the maps in the cloud. Navigon is available in several packages; North America which includes Canada and the off-shore territories, Just the United States, or in regions like Western United States, Eastern United States and Central United States. Plus it is available for many other countries. But, there is no one Best GPS app as it really depends on personal preference and need.

Re: A few questions or techniques about operating the Plantronics voyager legend headset please
All I use the Plantronics Voyager Legend is to answer and make phone calls. Granted you can rout all audio through the Legend and that's what I want. When I need to use my phone for an app a text message etc, that's when I take my phone out of my pocket. The Legend is limited to 7 hours of talk time. My use on my iPhone going through the Legend is only a means of private listening. For example, I can be listening to a NLS Talking Book. On a lower volume setting on the Legend, I can walk down the street and still hear sounds around me as well as my book. HTH Regards, Alan Teenagers; Tired of being harassed by your parents? Act now!

Discussion about how we like to use our phones If willing to accept a learning curve and starting from scratch with a new operating system, it’s possible to do practically most every day tasks accomplished with a computer using iOS devices. Examples are: Listening to favorite cds, books from CNIB or bookshare or many other commercial reading sources, internet radio. Surfing the web, reading Emails writing mails and text messages,Taking notes using an external keyboard or writing on the iOS device using Braille input or taking audio recording memos. Blindness specific aids such as OCR, reading pdf files, planning routes and getting orientation info similar with tracker, light detector etc. Social advantage of using devices that everyone else uses. Further, the interface we use is similar enough to relate and receive and give help with operating iOS devices to sighted users. Difficulties when starting out with iOS Orientation without buttons, learning the physical layout of the screen. Performing gestures efficiently. Text input and keypad use. Areas where current cisg members using iOS want to expand in future meetings MBraille and other Braille input options on the iphone. Surfing the web efficiently with safari. Using BlindSquare, a gps app with lots of features. Making phone calls efficiently dealing with extension and keying in options once the call is in progress such as voicemail passwords. Exploring skype on the iPhone. Potentially looking at emailing with iphone? Please add any topics here you’d like addressed in our next meetings. Where do we go from here? Leo works with Apple store for workshop in May. Goal is to give anyone considering apple devices a hands-on overview of what they can expect and provide follow-up options to learn more about them. Meeting for current iOS users where we can teach and explore hands on topics presented in previous item in this agenda. Date for meetings to be is yet decided upon. Here is where I had to sign off.

Here's how to change the number of lines of text shown in your email previews on your iPhone. Open your Settings application and scroll down to Mail, Contacts, Calendars tab. Under the Mail section; you’ll want to tap the first tab to adjust the Preview of your emails. As you can see, you can choose to have between zero and five lines previewed when viewing your emails in the Mail app. Let’s take a look at the difference between the default 2 Lines preview option with the maximum preview option of 5 Lines.

Re: NPR One App Question
Sherry, The slider bar at the bottom of the NPR one app does not work as the VoiceOver hint says. When you single finger up or down, a different percentage of play is announced but the announcer continues to talk at exactly the same spot.

With VoiceOver on, I find that doing a double tap and hold on the slider bar and then moving my held finger without lifting it up does move my location in the story. I'll add that I sometimes have difficulty finding that slider bar because sometimes it seems to drop below what's on the screen. Another poster read in the NPR one FAQs that the interesting button is a work in progress. I assume it will act as a listener comment on the story button when it is functioning. To the right of the interesting button is a share button that unfortunately is inaccessible with VoiceOver turned on. I've written NPR digital services about this problem.

I am confused on one aspect though, the slider at the bottom of the screen when a program is playing. The slider gives percentages which I assume means how much of the program has completed. What is confusing though is that voice over says adjustable, swipe up down to adjust. There is already a rewind button so I’m not sure why one would want to decrease the percentage. And I’ve been totally unsuccessful at increasing the percentage complete or fast forwarding.Does someone know how to fast forward through a program? Or am I wrong as to the purpose of this slider? Also, sometimes a button labelled interesting appears. I’m guessing one can click this if you like the program the app will tend towards more programs of that type. Unfortunately this button does not show up all the time. Any ideas as to how this works? Is the button random? Thanks.

Re: How to make dictation better
I think that’s what many people don’t get. The fact that you can incert periods commas, etc just by saying their name. This is an example and then you would say the word period. I also use the proper voice enflection indicating that this is the end of a sentense. HTH Regards, Alan Teenagers; Tired of being harassed by your parents? Act now! Move out. Get a job.

I'm not sure what you mean by specify the input, but then I've never looked at Get Name or Get Date yet. I assume the latter pops up a date picker, but I don't know about the former. You can send the workflow and I'll see what I can make of it. Thanks again for any help or pointer to any documentation I can have a look at.

Re: Workflow with variables help
Also not one I've used yet, but positioning is simply a matter of some patience and very slow finger movements. Don't forget you can also move the other actions around your menu if necessary.

However I have an other one related to workflow: How does the menu action work? I've added it but find no way to customize the different menu actions. Tried adding some before the one action and the Two action but, at least with voiceover they don't go where I'd like them. Thanks for any help!

I am trying to create a workflow that adds recurring events numbered recursively. Event 1/8 event 2/8, event 3/8 etc. Not sure I follow, but let's see what I can answer. Here are the questions I have about this: 1 Using the set variable action I added it but could not find a way to tell it what it should store, just found a field for the variable name. Am I missing something there? The value will be whatever the previous action outputs. If you put an input box in your workflow, then put a set variable action after it, the variable would be set to whatever the user typed in the box. If you put it after a calculation, the result would be what the variable is set to. 2.

Re: Accessible VOIP app for international group conference calls
This is the service and app that is used for a technology conference call that I participate in. I am not sure how they handle international calls. The actual phone numbers distributed or US based phone numbers. But if you use the app on your phone instead of dialing in the phone number you can use your Internet access and avoid phone charges.

transfering from one app to another app
Hi all, I need some help please. I typed some notes that I need for a Society of the Blind meeting I'm running tomorrow. I typed these notes in my notes app. What are the steps to transfer my notes from my notes app to my prizmo app so that I can read my notes and how do I name my notes so that I can find them in my prizmo app? I have my Society of the blind agenda in my prizmo app. So I figured I'll have my notes for the meeting in the prizmo app with my Society of the Blind agenda. I have drop box, voice dream reader and voice writer which of these apps are the best to keep notes I make for a meeting and meeting agenda in ? Any suggestions would be very much appreciated.
