Lookup the Next Word In iPhone Dictionary?

[Fazil]

Hi, list.

I have iPhone8 and the latest iOS version.

I used iPhone-Dictionary for the first-time just by chance.

I was totally taken aback when Voiceover gave me the dictionaries of all the
languages on my Rotor.

I, however, was disappointed when Voiceover did not display the definitions
of the next word.

It kept displaying the previous word.

Can we lookup just one word in a document?

If not, how can I see the meanings of the subsequent words?

Thanks!

RE: looking for accessible apps for emergency info, wildfire especially. I live in Portland Oregon

[Simon A Fogarty]

Hi Teresa,

Sorry to hear you guys are having it rough,

Take care.

As for apps 
Is there no kind of civil emergency app for your state or city that might help?

Possibly you could talk to your local council if you have one  about what the 
best options are in your situation.

Take care over there and don't play with fire.

live in Portland Oregon

I'm in Portland Oregon and as I'm sure you've hear on the news we are having 
crazy wild fires.

I am having trouble finding a good way to get up to the minute info.

Most of the resources have maps and as we all know those are not accessible.

Also, a radio station here said on their website they have listed Red Cross 
centers to go tobut I didn't find anything on the website that gives that info. 
Its probably there but JAWS isn't seeing it.

Right now the fires I think are about 30 miles away from me.

If it should get to the  point that evac is necessary I have no car access out 
of here.

Thanks for any help!

Teresa☺

Accessible Apps re Wild Fires

[Rebecca Degeorge]

I think you can call your local non-emergency police or fire station to 
get info about help evacuating if that becomes necessary, or call the 
local Red Cross. Perhaps listening to TV or radio stations is a better 
option than websites or apps? Just a thought!

[David Moore]

Hi teresa! This is David Moore from Dice world! I am so happy to see you on
here! I don't use emergency apps per se, I just listen to radio stations in
my area of Columbus ohio. I do have a weather app called AccuWeather. There
is some emergency information on that, but am not sure if fire information
would be there. You may want to ask Siri for the latest fire emergency
information or something like that. Also, the nfb news line app would have
emergency information for your area. Are you subscribed to nfb news. If you
are, that would be a good suggestion. Sorry I cannot help you more than
that! Great to see you teresa, and if anyone else wants to play on dice
world with me, my username is David0107 Have a great one all!

RE: looking for accessible apps for emergency info, wildfire especially. I live in Portland Oregon

[Richard Turner]

You can also ask Siri for the Air Quality in your city and if there are 
stations that track that, it will give you a number and say if it is good, 
moderate, unhealthy, or hazardous.  Right now in Portland, it is 367, which is 
quite hazardous.
In short, keep windows and doors closed and stay indoors.
Which radio station said it had info on their web site?
I am in Portland as well.

among peoples. (It is notable that while I have regretted not granting grace to 
others, I’ve never once regretted extending it.)" - Edward Herbert

Re: looking for accessible apps for emergency info, wildfire especially. I live in Portland Oregon

[Priscilla Garces (prisci)]

Hi,
Do you have government alerts turned on so that you can get alerts about 
natural disasters or other severe weather events including wild fires?
On my phone, whenever there are weather alerts or government issued alerts, my 
phone notifies me. That happened when COVID-19 hit our state very hard. I 
received alerts issued by the state on my phone and it’s pretty accessible.
Also, there is a registry for people with disabilities to register their mobile 
number in case of an emergency and it’ll give you alerts of disasters via 
texts. Each city and county has a registration page where you can register as a 
person with a disability to receive said emergency alerts via phone.
This is a very useful resource that explains how to register in your city 
and/or county.
Available at: https://www.portlandoregon.gov/civic/article/662307 

Sign-up page for public alerts:
https://www.publicalerts.org/signup 
You’ll have to type in your address in order to search for your county so that 
you can sign up for them.
If you have to evacuate due to an impending wildfire, make sure you prepare a 
pack with your essential technology, food, documents and any basic supplies for 
you and/or your pet if necessary. Make sure to have a relative’s contact on 
speed dial or as an emergency contact. If you have a medical ID on your iPhone 
set up, it’s best to set one of your contacts as an emergency contact just in 
case.
These wildfires are all as a result of dry conditions, intense heat and the 
wind caused by climate change.
This is indeed scary.

Hope this helps.

Priscilla

looking for accessible apps for emergency info, wildfire especially. I live in Portland Oregon

[Teresa Christian]

I'm in Portland Oregon and as I'm sure you've hear on the news we are
having crazy wild fires.

I am having trouble finding a good way to get up to the minute info.

Most of the resources have maps and as we all know those are not accessible.

Also, a radio station here said on their website they have listed Red
Cross centers to go tobut I didn't find anything on the website that
gives that info. Its probably there but JAWS isn't seeing it.

Right now the fires I think are about 30 miles away from me.

If it should get to the  point that evac is necessary I have no car
access out of here.

Thanks for any help!

Teresa☺
