RE: Here is a Fabulous Pill Reminder App for iOS that is 100% VoiceOver Accessible

[M. Taylor]

Hello Alan,

As I stated in a previous post, I have not experienced any app crashes when 
running in iOS 12.x.

To upgrade to the full version on iPhone:

1.
Open the App.  If you're running the app on a plus size phone, there will be 5 
buttons located on the bottom row of the display.  They are, from left to 
right, Medications, Reminders, Calendar, Refills, and More.  

2.
Single-finger, double-tap the More button.  The buttons on the bottom row will 
change to the following, from left to right:  Appointments, Reports, As Needed, 
and More.

3.
Single-finger, double-tap the More button.  The buttons on the bottom row will 
change to the following, from left to right:  Users, Options, and More.

4.
Select the Options button.  A list of options will fill the display.  Explore 
this list until you come across the one that allows you to upgrade to the full 
version.

Mark

Richard,

I'm with you. While I very much appreciate Mark telling us about this app, I 
find it is crashing very often and I have added a pill to it and it is still 
crashing. If I place focus on the bottomline menu at the far right and start 
swiping left to cycle through the option buttons, when the last button on the 
left is passed on a swipe left, the app closes. I believe I also experienced it 
closing when swiping through option buttons at the top of the main screen after 
getting to the last button on the right and swiping right one more time.

I did find where you can do the in app purchase from the free version. At the 
far right of the bottomline menu is a more button. When executed, it places 
another set of bottomline buttons on the screen. If you press the more button 
on this second set of buttons, yet another set of buttons opens on the 
bottomline menu. I believe the options button is included on this third set and 
it opens a screen where you can purchase the upgrade. I don't believe I will be 
purchasing it now based on my experience.

I'm using an iPhone 8 running the latest iOS version.

Hello Richard,

I am truly surprised to learn that the app crashes on your system even after 
adding data.  Are you running the latest version of iOS?  I ask because a new 
version of the app was just released earlier this week and it is rock solid.

I have installed this app on 3 different phones, all running VoiceOver and all 
running the latest version of iOS 12.x; and the app does not crash after having 
entered data.

I hope you have contacted the developer.

Mark

I am attempting to use this app. I find it still unstable. It closes often, 
even when I confine most of my activity to the area at the bottom of the screen.

I have entered two medications and their reminders. What circumstance triggers 
a prompt for payment from within the app? No notice has appeared and I cannot 
find another route to in-app purchase.

Thanks to all.

Hello Arlene,

Keep in mind that adding a medication to the app and creating a reminder as to 
when to takethat medication are two separate actions.

So, one you add a particular medication, all you need do is to select the done 
button located near the upper right corner of the display.

The next step will be to open the reminders section of the app and from there, 
you will select the name of the medication that you added in the previous step. 
 Fill in the reminder preferences and remember to activate the Save button, 
located near the upper right corner of the display.

Now, close the app.  This is to say, remove it from active memory.  It is not 
necessary to do this, on a normal basis, but in order for me to be certain that 
you see what I want you to see, it is best that you do so.

Now, when you reopen the app, you will see your newly added reminder.

Mark

Mark,we really love this pill reminder app. We need a bit of help with it.
We can't get the reminder we created to save completely. It lets us know that 
we need to add the medication of which we did. On each item of setting up the 
reminder, the dosage, the pill name, how often you take it and other things you 
need to fill out, do you need to save on each of those things, besides tapping 
on the done button? It doesn't seem to work. We're probably missing something, 
and at that could  be something so simple to make it work. And that's it it's 
so completely accessible and even though we haven't quite got this figured out 
it seems very easy. So thanks for some guidance with this, and thank you, for 
telling us about such a great and useful app you found.

Hello Everyone,

I found this incredibly VoiceOver accessible pill reminder app.

The app works just as described in its description.  The developer even 
mentions VoiceOver in his description.  Those of you with Apple watches are 
going to love this app, especially if you have silent reminders enabled.

Now there is one VoiceOver glitch that you will encounter only when you have 
no data in the app.  I suspect that this is why the developer has not caught 
it because once you have any data in the app, whatsoever, the glitch goes 
away, completely.

So, when you first launch the app, you will be prompted to allow 
notifications.  No problem there.  Once you reach the default screen, the
display tells you that you

Hello Richard, and list,


Thank you for your help. I do appreciate it.


I did look at the book. It is 1 file. I played it for about 5 minutes, 
on my laptop. I did not hear the noise then. So I don't have a clue as 
to what could be going on. I think I will test for a longer period with 
another book.


Thank you again for attempting to help me.

Hi.

 

I’m trying to cut costs a lot here to pay for a Focus braille display, and I 
decided to go with the DirecTV Now app on my Apple TV.  I can get the app to 
load, but that’s about it.  Is there a way I can tell the app to go to a local 
channel, assuming it’s available and watch it?  The guide would be nice, but I 
can work around that for now.  I know there are other devices that may work 
better with it, but since I have the Apple TV, it’s what I’ll use for now.  I 
haven’t used this thing for a couple of years, so I ought to be doing that.

 

Thanks in advance for the help.

Re: Questions regarding voice dream reader, and a new problem.

[Richard Turner]

It sounds to me as if the sound is in the book, not something from Voice Dream 
Reader. Can you listen another way?
The setting I am talking about is in the audio settings after the voice, you 
should find Advanced Audio settings.
But, with your further description, I suspect it is just in the book.
If you do not hear it with other books ...

Thank you for the responses. I really appreciate it.


Alright, first of all, this is a sound I haven't ever heard before. I 
seem to only hear it within this audiobook.

However, I haven't listened to another audiobook to really check things 
out. But this is not the first audiobook I have read using VoiceDream.


when I go to read, I mute my phone so that I don't receive notification 
sounds. I also lock the screen.


richard, I am not sure if this book is in multiple files. I will need to 
check, in order to know for sure. I am pretty sure that it isn't though.


But with this said, I can not find those settings you mentioned at all. 
I opened the book, and I did find audio settings. But nothing about 
advanced settings. Just an area to adjust the reading speed.

Am I possibly in the wrong area?


Thank you,

Is there a way to go to different channels in the DirecTV Now app on the Apple TV with Siri, or at least find them on the screen and watch them?

[Kevin Minor]

Hi.

I'm trying to cut costs a lot here to pay for a Focus braille display, and I 
decided to go with the DirecTV Now app on my Apple TV.  I can get the app to 
load, but that's about it.  Is there a way I can tell the app to go to a local 
channel, assuming it's available and watch it?  The guide would be nice, but I 
can work around that for now.  I know there are other devices that may work 
better with it, but since I have the Apple TV, it's what I'll use for now.  I 
haven't used this thing for a couple of years, so I ought to be doing that.

Thanks in advance for the help.

Re: Questions regarding voice dream reader, and a new problem.

[Richard Turner]

You said this is with audio books, are these made up of multiple files in one 
book?
If so, open a book, double tap on audio settings at the top, then find advanced 
audio settings and double tap.
Then see if this setting is set to on, and if so turn it off.Play Sound When

when I start reading one of my audiobooks, I start getting these chiming sounds 
throughout my reading. The file plays fine. There does not seem to be any other 
problems that I can tell.
However, the chime is usually a single chime, and can be infrequent.  It can 
vary in how often it happens. The chime does change every once in a while. 
Sometimes a double chime will play, almost sounding like a doorbell.

So I was wondering, is anyone else experiencing anything like this?
Why might this be happening? And what can I do about it?

It’s rather annoying, and if I can stop it from happening I would like to do so.

Any help is very much appreciated.

Thank you,

Re: Here is a Fabulous Pill Reminder App for iOS that is 100% VoiceOver Accessible

[Les Kriegler]

Hi all,

I share your sentiments about the app crashing often. It’s took me quite a 
while to be able to pay for the app, but it was possible. Unfortunately, I’m 
not certain which tab I chose. Perhaps Mark can tell you that. But I have mine 
working now. I did add one reminder and I still have some difficulty initially. 
So keep at it and I’m pretty sure you’ll find a way to purchase the app. It 
might be on the first tab itself, but again, hopefully Mark will tell you for 
certain.

Re: Here is a Fabulous Pill Reminder App for iOS that is 100% VoiceOver Accessible

[Alan Lemly]

Richard,

I'm with you. While I very much appreciate Mark telling us about this app, I 
find it is crashing very often and I have added a pill to it and it is still 
crashing. If I place focus on the bottomline menu at the far right and start 
swiping left to cycle through the option buttons, when the last button on the 
left is passed on a swipe left, the app closes. I believe I also experienced it 
closing when swiping through option buttons at the top of the main screen after 
getting to the last button on the right and swiping right one more time.

I did find where you can do the in app purchase from the free version. At the 
far right of the bottomline menu is a more button. When executed, it places 
another set of bottomline buttons on the screen. If you press the more button 
on this second set of buttons, yet another set of buttons opens on the 
bottomline menu. I believe the options button is included on this third set and 
it opens a screen where you can purchase the upgrade. I don't believe I will be 
purchasing it now based on my experience.

I'm using an iPhone 8 running the latest iOS version.

Re: Questions regarding voice dream reader, and a new problem.

Terri, if you use Facebook, and have not turned off background app refresh, 
Facebook, especially messenger will continue giving you notifications in the 
background while you're doing other stuff.


For an easy fix, you can turn off notifications for Facebook and Facebook 
messenger, unless you want to receive those notifications, in which case, 
there's nothing you can really do.

Subject: Questions regarding voice dream reader, and a new problem.

Hello everyone,

Are use voice dream reader all the time, to read audiobooks, and to view 
other files. Eventually, I plan to try to read PDF files, or EPUB files. But 
I don’t know when I might start doing this. Anyway, I have noticed an odd 
problem with Voice Dream reader, in the last few days. I wanted to find out 
if anyone might know what’s causing this. Or if anyone else has experienced 
it. For instance,  when I start reading one of my audiobooks, I start 
getting these chiming sounds throughout my reading. The file plays fine. 
There does not seem to be any other problems that I can tell.
However, the chime is usually a single chime, and can be infrequent.  It can 
vary in how often it happens. The chime does change every once in a while. 
Sometimes a double chime will play, almost sounding like a doorbell.


So I was wondering, is anyone else experiencing anything like this?
Why might this be happening? And what can I do about it?

It’s rather annoying, and if I can stop it from happening I would like to do 
so.


Any help is very much appreciated.

Thank you,

Terri

RE: Here is a Fabulous Pill Reminder App for iOS that is 100% VoiceOver Accessible

[Richard Petty]

I am attempting to use this app. I find it still unstable. It closes often, 
even when I confine most of my activity to the area at the bottom of the screen.

I have entered two medications and their reminders. What circumstance triggers 
a prompt for payment from within the app? No notice has appeared and I cannot 
find another route to in-app purchase.

Thanks to all.

Sieghard, you're exactly right about in the free version you could only have

Hello Arlene,

Keep in mind that adding a medication to the app and creating a reminder as 
to when to takethat medication are two separate actions.

So, one you add a particular medication, all you need do is to select the 
done button located near the upper right corner of the display.

The next step will be to open the reminders section of the app and from 
there, you will select the name of the medication that you added in the 
previous step.  Fill in the reminder preferences and remember to activate 
the Save button, located near the upper right corner of the display.

Now, close the app.  This is to say, remove it from active memory.  It is 
not necessary to do this, on a normal basis, but in order for me to be 
certain that you see what I want you to see, it is best that you do so.

Now, when you reopen the app, you will see your newly added reminder.

Mark

Mark,we really love this pill reminder app. We need a bit of help with it.
We can't get the reminder we created to save completely. It lets us know 
that we need to add the medication of which we did. On each item of setting 
up the reminder, the dosage, the pill name, how often you take it and other 
things you need to fill out, do you need to save on each of those things, 
besides tapping on the done button? It doesn't seem to work. We're probably 
missing something, and at that could  be something so simple to make it 
work. And that's it it's so completely accessible and even though we haven't 
quite got this figured out it seems very easy. So thanks for some guidance 
with this, and thank you, for telling us about such a great and useful app 
you found.

Hello Everyone,

I found this incredibly VoiceOver accessible pill reminder app.

The app works just as described in its description.  The developer even 
mentions VoiceOver in his description.  Those of you with Apple watches are 
going to love this app, especially if you have silent reminders enabled.

Now there is one VoiceOver glitch that you will encounter only when you have 
no data in the app.  I suspect that this is why the developer has not caught 
it because once you have any data in the app, whatsoever, the glitch goes 
away, completely.

So, when you first launch the app, you will be prompted to allow 
notifications.  No problem there.  Once you reach the default screen, the
display tells you that you have no data in the app,   Touching the center of
the screen, while voiceover is enabled, causes the app to crash.  This is 
the same on iPad.  On iPhone, the buttons to use the app are located on the 
bottom row of the display.  On iPad, these buttons are located down the left 
side of the display.

Simply activate any of these buttons, for example, select the reminders, 
tab, enter even a temporary medicine name, and the empty screen message goes 
away and all is perfect.

I know this sounds kind of weird but do not let that small glitch stop you 
from downloading the free version of the app.  By the way, for the full 
version, you must pay $1.99, inside the app.

Please notify the developer about the VoiceOver glitch and I’m certain he

Re: Here is a Fabulous Pill Reminder App for iOS that is 100% VoiceOver Accessible

[karuna Chopra]

Hi!
For the past many years, I have been using the native reminders app in the 
iPhone to remind me about my pills. I take about 10 pills a day! And it works 
very well.
I can even tell Siri to add a reminder!
At sometime, I have to take four pills together, so I use one reminder 
mentioning the names of all the four bills and set it for every day!
What will be the advantage of this application over the native reminders app? I 
wonder 樂
