Re: Is jawbone Bigh Jambox still the best

[Gordan Radić]

  
  
Hi!
I heard Jambox some time ago and I didn't like its sound. Some time
after that I was visiting www.speeddots.com to inform about the
tactile screen protectors. They had at the time some other portable
speaker, i can't remember the name right now which sounded far
better than Jambox in their podcast.
Try to visit the site and check out is it still available.

  Hi,

Is jawbone Bigh Jambox still the best speaker with iPhone regarding using 3.5mm cabel input for listening to voice over? I am looking for a good speaker for the voice over sound when practicing using the iPhone.  

Since the voice over speech quality is the only criteria this time, will the little Jambox do as fine as the big Jambox. With 3.5mm input. Is there other speakers that characterises as very good or best regarding voice over sound quality? 3.5mm input.

Take care

Re: siri dictation ulternitive?

[Gordan Radić]

  
  
Hi!
I wouldn't know about English but dictating in Croatian could be
better. I'll try some tips suggested bellow but, from my experience
Google Voice Input works far better for my language than Siri
Dictation.
Besides, it's not just the matter of understanding dictated speech,
it is also about he size and complexity of used dictionary. If the
dictation doesn't have some words and phrases in there it can't type
it down and my opinion is Google did a better job with it.
On the other hand when I dictate in my iPhone I can dictate
punctuation and it is displayed as punctuation. When using Google
Voice this is still not supported for my mothertongue so...
It is best to try it out for yourself.

RE: siri dictation ulternitive?

[Sieghard Weitzel]

I assume you are talking about dictating in English? I am just curious as to 
whether you are a native English speaker and if so, are you from the US or from 
England or another country? If from the States, doo you have a strong dialect? 
I personally find dictation for the most part works quite well, but I did 
notice that results are almost always slightly worse if you use a Bluetooth 
headset. It works best with just the phone or with the Earpods.

Regards,
Sieghard

Re: I think I found a really weird VO bug.

[Richard Turner]

I just did a test in the messages app. The first couple tries, the first letter 
did not speak the word.
But, as I went back and forth, sometimes it spoke the word on the first letter 
and sometimes it did not.
So, this is a bug, at least so far as it is inconsistent.

How do you listen to the Mlb live games with the tune in radio app?

[terri elliott]

Hi.  I purchased the premium version of tune in radio.  I want to listen to the 
mlb live games on it.  I can find the team that I want to listen too but when 
the live game is on I can't figure out how to go about listening to it.  All I 
am hearing is the interviews with the various people but not the actual live 
game.  Thanks.

I think I found a really weird VO bug.

[englishrider91]

I was typing a text message to my husband, and I believed I had mistyped the 
first letter in the text field, so went back to check, using the characters 
function of the rotor, and VoiceOver did not give me the military term for the 
letter. I forget what the name for this is, but the letter I typed was V, and I 
did not hear the word Victor, as I expected. I just got VoiceOver saying the 
letter. I turned off VoiceOver, and turned it back on again, then tried doing 
this again in the messages text field, and the same thing happened. I even 
tried opening notes and doing it there, and got the same results. But when I 
typed in the to field for this email, I got the expected behavior of VoiceOver 
announcing the word after the letter. I'm going to see if the same thing 
happens with the subject and body of this email.

Everything worked as expected when I checked the subject and body fields of the 
email, so I'm not sure what's going on. Can others test for this, particularly 
in The messages and notes apps, and report back?

 Hey guys,
 
 I thought i would throw this out there to get some input. Someone 
 asked me the other day.  Does anyone know on this list of anyone 
 who is blind working for apple?  I've actually been asked that 
 question many times and it would be interesting to hear of anyone 
 who has or is working there, especially from an accessibility perspective.

[Eden Kizer]

Hi, I use spotify on my fhone, my computer and now my braillenote. I have

problems with either. Facebook was logged in and reading timeles. However when 
I went to log back in with spotify because it needed rebogging in, it flaked 
said new password was wrong. Tried it everywhere else and it's still working 
fine but spotify kept sending me to a page to rechan forassword. I uninstalled 
spotify plus all relevant data on mz braillenote and it logged in fine next 
time. However uninstabbling spotify on my phone did not bring the same result. 
Is there something else I need to do? Please help.

Re: siri dictation ulternitive?

[englishrider91]

Before you go looking for alternatives, I'd like to point out something that 
you might not know about. I don't know how far this goes back in the 
generations of iPhones, but since I got my new 6S, i've noticed that I get much 
better dictation results when I talk near the earpiece part of the iPhone, 
rather than the bottom, near the speaker, like I used to do with my old iPhone 
4S. Since then, my dictation has improved beyond all recognition. I remember 
hearing somewhere that the microphone placement had changed. I think it was in 
a podcast by a guy named Neil, who was testing all the different iPhone Mike's 
with and without the processing that Apple puts on them. Anyway, just thought 
I'd let you know about my discovery.


Thanks,
Ari

Hello,

I also had this issue with helping a client set up family sharing. I found that 
if you find the link on the bottom of the screen, and then double tap and hold 
on the link it will activate.

I hope this helps,

This week at the NFB national convention, there was a software
engineer from San Francisco that worked for Apple. I did not hear the
presentation live, but there's a good chance it will be reprinted in
the Braille Monitor later this year. They often reprint convention
speeches and presentations.

 Hey guys,
 
 I thought i would throw this out there to get some input. Someone
 asked me the other day.  Does anyone know on this list of anyone who
 is blind working for apple?  I've actually been asked that question
 many times and it would be interesting to hear of anyone who has or
 is working there, especially from an accessibility perspective.

Hey guys,

I thought i would throw this out there to get some input. Someone
asked me the other day.  Does anyone know on this list of anyone who
is blind working for apple?  I've actually been asked that question
many times and it would be interesting to hear of anyone who has or
is working there, especially from an accessibility perspective.

Re: A bespecular question

[Lelia Struve]

Don't quote me on this, but I don't think so only because the people that help 
our volunteers so basically they help of their own accord. So I doubt there 
will be charges for this app. But I could be wrong.

Re: A bespecular question

[Wayne Merritt]

According to an AppleVis podcast, the app will be free through the end
of the year. I used it to see what my thermostat was set to, which is
not always easy to tell, even for my sighted wife. I sent off my
recorded question, and all three responses came back with an accurate
answer. MY wife said that we might use BeSpecular from now on, grin.

It didn't say anything about being a certified cable. It just said that it was 
a 8 pin lightning cable and that it was heavy duty. How will I know if it 
certified or not? Thanks. Jerry Mader

Re: working forapple

Robert Carter interviewed a person who was working in an Apple store for one

person, named Dave, who works in the Apple Store, in Durham, North Carolina. 
I have never met him, but I have two blind friends who got their iPhone 6's 
from him when they upgraded. Considering all the noise, amount of people,

Re: A Word of Caution Ab Family Sharing

[Kimber Gardner]

I had a similar problem with the continue button when I was trying to set up 
family sharing. I too called apple accessibility and got the problem solved 
only by clicking on sign in with another Apple ID. The funny thing is, after 
clicking that link, I signed in with the same user id and everything worked.

In a similar incident, I was ordering a phone of or my husband and was unable 
to click the button to accept the terms and conditions that was essential to 
completing the order. I had to sign onto apple with my laptop to click the 
button.

Hey guys,

I thought i would throw this out there to get some input.  Someone asked 
me the other day.  Does anyone know on this list of anyone who is blind 
working for apple?  I've actually been asked that question many times 
and it would be interesting to hear of anyone who has or is working 
there, especially from an accessibility perspective.
