Siri works almost flawlessly to identify songs. The only reason Shazam was
apparently needed last evening was that was part of the requirement of the deal
to get a 4 month free trial of Apple Music.
I was surprised because I thought Apple had bought Shazam and incorporated it
into Siri, but

Hi Richard,
I often ask SIRI to identify a song that is playing and it does so correctly
almost every time, but I don’t have any extra apps installed, it should work
natively in SIRI.

I think he may have been referring to the Pandora app being somewhat difficult.
Again, I found it to be nice and simple when it was free, but after I upgraded
to premium, the app got all busy and harder to use. Anyway… My trial ends soon
enough so I’ll see if it goes back to the simple layout
If you are talking about the Shazam app; you just had to have it installed.
The first time I tried it last evening, it didn't work because I didn't have
the Shazam app installed.
I downloaded the app; then asked Siri what song is playing and it identified
the song and a redeem button came up
I found their app to be kind of hard to use on iOS. I got one of those 3-month
trials from a Groupon offer, but it ran out not too long ago. Apple Music and
Spotify are probably my choices I like best for accessibility right now.

Hi Carolyn:
I find the two finger single tap very useful, especially when someone comes
into the room and interrupts me while I am reading something on my phone.
Kinda like hitting the control key to stop JAWS from speaking .
I haven't used the three finger double tap to turn off speech
That does make sense, Hollie. I just had no idea that speech was so
significant, had just thought it part of Voice Over.
Best regards,
Carolyn

Hi,
I may have misunderstood your message. The 3 iPhones I have had replaced I did
not have to pay anything for the replacements under AppleCare.

I'm using version 11.19.0 and I do not get the results you do.
Yes, this does bring up a few movies, and there is a button for more
Audio Description in English under the Explore more heading. But there
are only four pages of listings, scrolling down does nothing to pull up
more
It is fully accessible from what I have used it for and there is a charge
for it. It's in the Mac App store, but I don't remember how much I paid for it.

John,
Is Mac DVD Ripper Pro completely VoiceOver accessible? Or are there unlabelled
buttons. Is it free? Or is there a charge.
Can I find Mac DVD Ripper Pro in the Mac app store or should I go to a website.
Thank you,

Personally, I am very appreciative of the movies and TV series which I can now
get with Audio description. This was so limited just a few years back and I
would think it pretty involved to get the additional sound track for this
service.

Yes, the phone is still covered for 1 year, but I believe Apple Care Plus will
give you additional coverage during that first year and for a second year.

At one time, buying a new iPhone at the Apple Store or through the
major US carriers would automatically give you a year of Apple Care.
I'm not sure if this is true anymore, but I learned of the added
coverage when I had a small issue with my phone a few years ago. I
took it to the Apple Store and
Hi,
I recommend it even if you never use it as if something goes wrong you will be
good to go. I usually try to get insurance for my devices if possible as I
feel that not having it is go wrong and not have it and you have to pay more

Netflix 11.19 is the latest update so anyone not on that version may want to
update.
Make sure Audio Description is set to on in settings, and on your first Netflix
show with audio description; make sure you pause the show if you are not
hearing the description; double tap on audio settings;
Perhaps you’re right but this was prior to the date of the most recent update.
