Hello everyone,
I just recently purchased a set of Powerbeats Pro. I absolutely love
them! I wasn't quite sure I ever wanted such a thing. I couldn't
conceive of spending that much money on earbuds, or earphones. But then
I had a chance to check them out, and I decided to get them. It was so
If you don't want to enable the Hands Free feature you can still use the
Amazon Alexa app if you do the following:
1. Open the Amazon Alexa app.
2. Do not close the app, but go to the app switcher and do a single finger
double tap on the app from the app switcher, and it should speak / work
This happened to me the other day. Fortunately I was able to reach her by
phone.

Tonight this happened with me for the first time, the call courier or message

didn’t show up and send button was dimmed; there was no way I could figure to

Hi Jen, u raise an excellent point. I did not specifically check the speech,
although I did check volume. At any rate, whatever happened is now resolved.
So, am again a happy camper smile!! And, thanks to all for your help.

Have you tried doing a three finger double tap to turn voiceover speech, not
voiceover, back on?

Landscape orientation on an iPad allows for a nearly full-size onscreen
keyboard. It’s also more conducive to running two apps side by side at the same
time.

Did speech get turned off? Voiceover will still be on, but the speech may have
got turned off. Just a thought?

Richard, no, I was just doing the power off button for couple seconds. I have
now talked to apple accessability two times and had two failed attempts. The
last time, I spoke with a senior advisor. She basically ended up telling me to
just update to 15.2 in hopes that would solve issue. So,
The other thing I'd do is make sure the volume is up. Sometimes it drops
unexpectedly, and you don't hear anything. Frustrating when you find one or
the other issues has been the problem all along.

Here are the steps to fix the Amazon Alexa app...
1. Open the Amazon Alexa app.
2. Close the app & reopen the app from the app switcher.
3. Tap on the "More" tab at the bottom right corner.
4. Swipe down to "Settings" & tap to open.
5. Swipe down to "Alexa app settings" tap to open.
6.
Have you done a reboot?
I think the SE 2020 works like the newer phones where you press and release the
volume up, then press and release the volume down then hold in the side button
about 8 or 10 seconds and release and wait for it to come back on.
The first two steps need to be done
I forgot to put my phone on charge last night. Consequently, battery ran
down. Since recharging, I discovered that I can not give voice commands to
open my aps. When flicking around the screen, voice over does not speak.
Yet, when I hold the home button and say "voiceover on", I get message

I am thinking it is ok to ask this here. But if not, please just let me
know.
Anyway, we are hoping to purchase some smart bulbs for our place. We

couple of lamps, if at all possible.
However, I don't

Could you give me more information about this setting? I can’t find your

Sorry for the confusion.
I can not say for certain what is saved in the app on your phone. WayAround
would have to confirm this, but this is what I think happens.

within the app, but also saved to the WayCloud for

I saw the contact link. I'll do it on the phone, since that is where I
primarily pull up movies, podcasts, books, etc. All those things are the things
that keeps me sane.

Oh, I see what Richard has written below. maybe I am daft afterall. As for me,
I looked it up on my laptop. So many things are streamlined and easier to use
on the phone. I'll do that next. VDR it is.

Well, there should have been a place to enter your email and such and an option
to create an account.
But, when in doubt, always look for a contact link:

You should be able to download onto your phone. Try triple tapping on the link
and see if you can either download to the Files app, or better yet, right into
Voice Dream Reader.

Richard, that's cool! Since I'm just using an iPhone, and no computer these
days, do I need any sort of APP like I do for SERO, or can I just go to
audiovault. Come to think of it, I used to have an account here ages and ages
ago, before the iPhone helped me leave my Windows 7 computer behind.

I just went to the audio vault and saw no way to sign up. Am I daft or
what? I typed in Boys In The Hood to see what might come up and I saw nothing
relevant, just a table with a few headings and no info.
P.S. I saw your sign off. Yes Penguins might make you smile rather than

It is free. It is just the audio, of course.

I'm with you. It's definitely gremlins!!! Speaking of gremlins, my kids loved

Thanks Duane,
Yes, I find BARD and braille to be a challenging combination.
My only theory as to why the BARD app has this problem is either the phone
resources get low which Apple will deny, or it is Gremlins. I personally lean
toward the Gremlins explanation. .

Thanks Richard. Right after I sent that message, it occurred to me to do

why that happens in the BARD APP so often. I just recently started using the
