Re: A question about which braille display to buy.

2019-09-27 Thread Annie Skov Nielsen
Hi.

Thank you very much.

I see mixed experiences with QBraille, I hope I can get my hands on one to test 
it.

Why is it not possible to buy a great 20 or 24 cells display that really work?

Has anyone any experience with brailleMe. I know it is cheap, and not the 
quality we are used to, but it is 20 cells. Does it pair and work with the 
phone.

Best Annie.

Hi all.

I need a new braille display.

It is really not easy what are people suggesting.

I need the display for my phone, but also for my computer.

I am considering a focus 40 a QBraille or something smaller.

What would you suggest. 14 cells are very small to me but 40 cells display are 
very long.

I have also thought about a braille note touch Plus.

Orbit reader has no cursor routing buttons and that would be a problem for me.

Can anyone recommend a ir remote that can be used with iPhone.

2018-11-15 Thread Annie Skov Nielsen
Hi all.

My infrared remote for my bed is broken. I have heard that you can get some 
infrared/ir remotes that can be used with your iPhone, but it needs to be a 
universal one.

Can anyone recommend one? And how do I get it to work with the bed.

I have an iPhone 10.

Thank you an advance.

Best Annie.

Can anyone recommend a bag with neckstrap for my iphone 7 Plus.

Hi all.

Can anyone recommend a bag with neckstrap for my iPhone 7 Plus. I would like a 
bag, where I can control all buttons. It would be great with some card slots 
too.

Best regards Annie.

Re: air radio tune app is free today

Hi.

It is sadly not free any more, but I bought it for 8 dkk about a little more 
than a dollar. It looks easy to use. My tunein has stopped working, so this is 
a nice new one.

 Hi David
 
 Basically to save a station you go to the genre you want you play that 
 station under the station there's an add to favorites button to play the 
 station you go to the play stop button there is one thing we need to ask 
 him to do is to make it where you can do the double tap for play and stop 
 and I will be asking him to do that as soon as I get a chance other than 
 that the whole app is very very very accessible he's done a good job on 
 that

Re: Small update on the BotVac app accessibility.

2016-07-03 Thread Annie Skov Nielsen
Hi Sandra.

Yes I would love one of these vacuum cleaners, I need sighted assistance for 
vacuum cleaning, and if that could be saved sometimes, it could mean a little 
more freedom to me. My only problem now is if I would get in trouble with all 
my 5 ghz attached items. The 2.4 ghz is not working as good as the 5 ghz 
network. I have talked to my brother he thinks it ought to work, but he is also 
blind, but he knows a lot about routers, that is not something that I am an 
expert in.

Hi Sandra.

I have cheked it, it uses the 2,4 ghz standard. I am a little in doubt if that 
can give me problems. My router supports both the 2,4 and 5 ghz, but I am in

Re: Odd braille behavior in iOS

Hi Kimber.

It is because you have a wrong setting in the router. Character needs to be set 
to some, and everything works fine.

A question about aftershokz trekz titanium.

Hi all.

Does anyone happen to know how you use these small straps which is in the 
package with the trekz titanium. I can not figure out how they works. I guess 
it has something to do with getting them to fit better.

Thank you an advance.

Can anyone recommend an app for recording that can overwrite.

2016-03-20 Thread Annie Skov Nielsen
Hi all.

I need an app for recording, that can overwrite. E.g. if I have made a mistake 
in a piece that I have read alloud I can go back and start reading again, and 
the peace will be deleted. I will need to use the app on my IPad and IPhone, so 
it will be great with an app that can work with both devices.

Do anyone know of such an app?

Best regards Annie.

 Hi,
 
 I’m uncertain as to the value in a backup feature for playlists, since 
 I’ve powered my Sonos units on and off hundreds of times, even moved homes 
 with them, they’ve never lost anything, so, quite what situation one might 
 wish to backup their data set within I cannot foresee.
 
 The PlayBar has 9 speakers, three tweeters, three mids, and three base for 
 left, right and centre.
 
 The unit, by default is in fact 3 or so inches tall, and 8 inches deep, 
 with about 38 inches wide. It can be mounted, and has sensors within it, 
 either flat with the 3 inches being height, or upright with the height 
 then being 8 inches and depth being 3 inches. When wall mounted this is 
 how it is. Sonos make a branded wall mount for the PlayBar but not any of 
 the Play stand alone units.
 
 In short, I’d buy a PlayBar only if I were connecting it to a TV, but if 
 you’re only looking for a music experience, stick to the stand alone 
 units, preferably as stereo pairs, being either 2 x Play 1, 3 or 5.
 
 Its been a wonderful experience working with Sonos to perfect much of the 
 interface for Voice Over users over the past 4 years now, I find them 
 responsive and often calling me up to ask how to make things better, I’m 
 not being unfair by saying that the Trueplay tuning tool works perfectly

Re: Music in iCloud Drive

Hi

You could use dropbox, and use some of the apps that can stream from dropbox.

It could be evermusic pro, but there are others available.

Re: Talking goggles

2016-01-07 Thread Annie Skov Nielsen
Hi all.

I can not get talking goggles to work anymore, I really miss this app. I like 
the video mode very much, because it recognizes the text on the fly, and it is 
great when you are reading shampoo and stuff like that. I have just tried 
again, but it will not work with my 6s Plus.

Hi Sieghard.

The app I found with the name AIPoly is called AIPoly vision,, is this the

Hope someone can help.

Hi all.

I have installed the beta update on my mac, my IPad and my IPhone, but on no

I am not able to add any services from my IPhone at all, I added tidal from my

Thank you an advance.

Recommendation needed for navigation app together with blindsquare.

2015-10-07 Thread Annie Skov Nielsen
Hi all.

I need a recommendation for which navigation app that works best together with 
blindsquare. I have tried with some apps, but I can not figure out what I like 
best. Both navigon, tomtom and other GPS solutions would be possible.

I hope you can help thank you an advance.

Best regards Annie.

Re: only 6 days to go for the fopydo kickstarter fund

2015-10-02 Thread Annie Skov Nielsen
Hi all.

I am really sad to see this project to go.

I backed it up with 94 dollars, so I hope I can get two of them, if Tomek wil 
succeed in the project, I feel it is a project that will give us a unique 
bookscanning stand.

I can really recommend this stand and bookscanning attachment. I have seen it, 
I tested it to give my feedback, and I really love it. Often I take pictures of 
books, and scan the pictures with the computer afterwards, and it is really 
great. I am danish and the knfb reader among other ocr programs makes more 
errors in my language that the computer does, but for taking pictures I really 
can not recommend this stand enough.

If we could get some organizations to support the project it would be fantastic.

Best regards Annie.

Re: is the bigger screen on the iphone worth the money?

2015-09-16 Thread Annie Skov Nielsen
I love my 6 Plus, and I would absolutely go for a 6s Plus, if I should buy a 
phone now. Most of the time I use braille with a braille display, and that can 
be a battery killer, but it works nearly all day now. It is also easier to 
navigate on the 6 Plus than on smaller phones. As Jonathan says braille input 
on the screen is easier. I also love that I can have larger pages in ibooks, 
when reading braille.

Cheers Annie.

Hi Richard.

If you turn the automatic translation off, you will have fewer of these 
problems. It would probably be great if we could turn that function on and off 
with a hotkey.

Be aware of the command space + dots 4+5, that will in some instances help 
especially before some symbols.

Hi Jim.

Here is a link to a list of comon braille commands:
https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT202132 

I think there has been added a few since this list. Feel free to ask any 
question you have. I hope you enjoy your new display.

Best regards Annie.

Hi all.

The new IPhones have great improved cameras, but how much will that mean to us 
when we are scanning? Another thing is will it be easier to make a colour

Re: A stand for the KNFB reader

2015-08-21 Thread Annie Skov Nielsen
Hi.

I would say that the fopydo is much easier to assemble than the standscan. Of 
course it depends of which phone you have, some phones still needs the light 
the standscan can produce. I have a 6 plus, so I can easily use fopydo. I have 
a scanjig, but I wouldn’t recommend it, I have tried everything and I am not 
getting really good results. I have also tested the bookscanning attachment for 
the fopydo, and it will be a great option, when it comes out.

Best regards Annie.

Hi Christina.

You can use a braille display instead of a bluetooth keyboard.

I highly recommend the fopydo stand. It is rather cheap and easy to use.

Re: Smart Beetle 14 cells refreshable Braille display

2015-08-14 Thread Annie Skov Nielsen
Hi.

I would say that 20 cells is better than 14, but maybe I am wrong, maybe 14 
cells are enough? I am in doubt.

I have used 8 dots braille for many years now, but you can write the same in 6 
dots braille maybe sometimes with 2 commands. As I see it the difference on 6 
dots and 8 dots (computerbraille) is not so big. It could be that we will se 
more 6 dots displays and other devices in the future.

Re: Replacing Braille Notetaker with iDevice

Hi Alex.

It is so frustrating that the brailliant looses the contact to the phone when 
writing, it has become better in the last firmware update, but the problem is 
still present. The display is a really great display, and in my opinion one of 
the best except for that bug. It would be great if it could be fixed.

Re: Replacing Braille Notetaker with iDevice

2015-06-21 Thread Annie Skov Nielsen
Hi David.

I will have to disagree with you here. I am as I am sure you know danish. We 
have never had contracted braille in jaws, but we have 8 dots 
braille/computerbraille. I agree that we can easily type in computerbraille, 
and it would probably be the best thing to do, also to keep your spelling in 
good shape, but when you are reading, I feel that contracted braille really is 
a big advantage. I also see it on the mac and IPhone, it helps me a lot that I 
can get the output in contracted braille, I really feel that the great thing 
with IPhone and braille display is that you can type in e.g. 8dots 
mode/computermode and you can read the output in contracted braille, this is 
where I feel braille on IPhone works better than on notetakers. In my 
experience the output contracted mode is a major step forward there are bugs 
yes I know, but it also a great thing for people with smaller display. I have 
always thought long displays are better, but I am considering that it maybe in 
many ways would be better with shorter displays, but if you have a shorter 
display contracted braille as output is a major advantage.

I agree with Jonathan that braille could be much better in IOS. In fact I have 
some questions for you english speaking users, but that will be in a later mail.

Best regards Annie.

Re: Best App for Navigating Headings in a Word docx file

Hi.

I think chm+ or chmate will work. There is a trial of chmate, that will let you 
open 1 file at a time.

 I apologize for what seems like a newbie question but I'm having
 difficulty navigating a docx file containing the NFB annual
 convention agenda.
 
 I've reviewed this file in Microsoft Word and see that it contains
 headings. However, when I open it with the Word app on my iPhone 6
 and try to navigate to headings with the rotor set to headings, I
 receive a no headings found  message. I've also tried opening it in
 Voice Dream Reader and was unsuccessful again in navigating to the
 headings with the rotor. Seems like in Voice Dream that headings
 weren't even an option on the rotor.
 
 Can someone with more experience navigating marked up documents point
 me to the best app for navigating to headings using the rotor? I've
 tried saving this document as a filtered html file as I used to do on
 my Stream for navigation purposes but so far I've been unsuccessful
 in finding an app to open it in with which I can navigate to headings
 with the rotor.
 
 Thanks in advance for any help you can offer.

Re: Problem Running Braille Display with iOS 8.2

It sounds to me as you could use the vertical navigation, to go to the right

in the router.

This is a command that I use a lot.

 Hi Alan,
 
 It sounds like your friend has automatic braille translation turned off. 
 When she starts typing a word, it goes into a buffer, as indicated by the 
 full braille cells at either end of the display. When she presses Space or 
 dots 4-5-chord, the word will be entered into the text, and the full 
 braille cells will disappear.
 
 Another option is to turn off automatic braille translation. Then text is 
 translated automatically a couple of seconds after you type it, regardless 
 of whether you’ve pressed Space or dots 4-5-chord. The only problem with 
 that is that if you stop in the middle of a word to think about something, 
 the part that you’ve already typed gets back-translated, which can cause 
 problems. For that reason, I leave automatic braille translation turned 
 off.
 
 HTH,
 Anna

Re: apogee quartet?

2015-03-28 Thread Annie Skov Nielsen
Hi Simon.

I have tried the duet, and the quartet uses the same interface. It is more 
accessible on the IPhone than on the mac. The most difficult thing is that you 
will have to press a wheel on on the apogee to switch between the channels. You 
do unfortunately not have a physical button on the apogee, the button you can 
use when you wants to turn it up or down goes round and round, so you can not 
be sure how it is set, unless you check it in the app. When that has been said 
I would say that it is useable. I think it is possible to learn to use the 
device. If anyone else has some experience please let us know.

Best regards Annie.

Hi Maria.

My mother has also some of these 30 pins lanyards. You can not make them for 
newer IPhones.

You can find some bags with lanyard on the internet, but I understand from your

Hi.

There are solutions to find.

I would like a solution, so I can wear my phone vertically, that will make it 
easier when using with e.g. blindsquare and when I need to use onscreen 
braille..

In the meantime you can buy cheap cases at the following link:

Hi.

The problem is that I do not know of any apps that you can both read and write

I have used chm+ and also chmate with the braille search function.

In some apps you can search, and when you will have to use vertical navigation 
in the router.

Re: The best app for playing music from dropbox.

2015-03-17 Thread Annie Skov Nielsen
Hi Neal.

Yes I have tried with tunebox and I have also tried with cloudbeats, that 
should be one of the best, but it asks me to link to dropbox again, and it does 
not help that I try to do so.

Thank you for the tip, I will start with dropbox own app, but I really hope 
someone can help.

Best regards Annie.

The best app for playing music from dropbox.

2015-03-17 Thread Annie Skov Nielsen
Hi all.

I got a really great update from dropbox a while ago, so I got 1 tb of space 
instead of 100 gb of space. I have put all my music in dropbox. This is really 
great, but do any of you have a recommendation of an app for playing music from 
dropbox. I have tried tunebox a great app but there seems to be a how much do 
you like tunebox I can not be rid of that question. Can anyone recommend an app.

Best regards Annie.

Re: External mic for iPhone

Hi.

There are an Iq5, an iq6 and an iq7. I know all of them. I love the iq6 over 
the iq5 and iq7, but it depends a little on what you are going to use it for. I 
guess you will need  the iq6 or iq7.

Hi.

I just typed iyomube in the search field.

I can send you a link, if it still gives trouble.

I will need to warn people, to me the app looks totally inaccessible, and it

Buttons are not labbled, and I am not able to find settings at all.

As I understand it it should be possible to use it the same way as goggles, but 
have not got that to work either.

Re: iphone stands

Hi Richard.

I look forward to this.

I hope the Fopydo will be possible to ship for Denmark.

I would really be interested in a device which works for bookscanning, at that 
point standscan is a little difficult, I am not able to get alle the text on a 
page, I know newer phones can easily mannage, but standscan can not.
 Isn’t it a problem that these devices do not have light built in?

I use an IPhone 6 plus.

Best regards Annie.

Hi Christer.

Strange it is available in Denmark. But it is a little tricky to find the app. 
It is one of these apps which is not labled very good.

I have not bought it the price is 235 dkk, I would love to hear if it is worth

Hi.

Be aware that you can not read braille and use Voicedream with speech at the 
same time. You can set voicedream just to use the built in voice in the text 
area, but you can not use voicedreams voice capabilities while reading braille, 
It is a pitty.

Re: A Microphone question

2015-01-26 Thread Annie Skov Nielsen
Hi.

If it is possible it is always a good idea to tell which microphone you have.

I have the iq6 from zoom. You can add a headphone to the microphone, so that 
you can hear VoiceOver.

What I do is to use a braille display for controling the phone, and uses the 
handyrec app from zoom. I mainly use this app because it lets me hear what I am 
recording through the headphones on the iq6.

Maybe someone can tell me if there are other accessible recording apps out 
there that lets you hear what you are recording.

Best regards Annie.

Re: Are you loving your iPhone 6 plus?

2014-11-24 Thread Annie Skov Nielsen
Hi Christina.

I love mine too. I experience some differences with the camera. GOggles is also 
reacting faster, but I hope it will be updated to take fully advantage of 6+.

A funny thing is red laser, it has become really really fast, if digit-eyes 
could learn something from red laser, it would be a fantastic program.

I love the battery life, the size, the speaker, reading braille on my braille 
display works great too. I agree the best phone I ever had. Yes I also have a 
5s a great phone, but the 6 plus is easier to use, as I experience it.

Re: How to write an umlaut

2014-10-12 Thread Annie Skov Nielsen
Hi.

Yes german has also a grade two system. I have decided to learn it, but it is a 
bit difficult.

Letters with umlaut ought to be as follows:
a mit umlaut dot 3,4,5 = ä ..
o mit umlaud 2,4,6 ö.
u mit umlaud 1,2,5,6 = ü

I suggest you to set your language to german, or it will not work exact this 
way, and you can hear if you type correct.

I showed you here the german way to write these letters. If you need it the 
english way, I will need to know if you use unified table or which english 
table you use.

I hope this can be of some help. I learned german long ago, things can have 
changed, but I do not think in this case.

Re: TextExpander

2014-10-12 Thread Annie Skov Nielsen
Hi.

I use textexpander. You can make abrivations for things you have to remember, 
or long expressions. I use it for a rather strange task. I have made all the 
songs from a hymn book, so that I can just type sal.443, and I will get song 
443 expanded. You can not use textexpander in all apps, but in some apps e.g. 
notemaster. You can also use textexpander as a third party keyboard, but I can 
not figure it out very well.

Re: Questions about Using a Braille display with an I-Device

2014-10-10 Thread Annie Skov Nielsen
Hi all.

I like using my phone for taking notes together with a braille display.

It depends on how you have set up your braille display if it will go to sleep.

It also depends on how many cells a display needs to have.

I tend to recommend a 32 cells display from human ware (Brailliant 32 bi) this 
display has in my opinion only one drawback, it can sometimes lose the 
connection to the phone while typing, this is a problem, but one of the only 
problems that I have. Braille edge, u2 and focus are better at staying 
connected, but in my opinion both braille edge and focus are to long, and focus 
has also a problem when you wants to go to the next display line. I guess you 
are from the u.s. and there are some other displays available.

In IOS 8 it works really well to read books from ibooks with the braille 
display. I guess it also still works fine from bookshare, if read2go does not 
work anymore voicedream do, and voicedream is really great with a braille 
display.
Best regards Annie.

Re: Battery Power:

2014-10-08 Thread Annie Skov Nielsen
Hi Michael.

Well I have had battery problems with my 5s. I did the following, and it seems 
to solve the problem. i ran my phone totally down for battery took the sim card 
out of the phone connected the charger for 20 minutes and inserted the simcard 
again. After that things seems to work again, I got the explanation that it had 
something to do with reset the networks settings. I do not know if it is the 
case, and I am not advicing anyone to take the sim card out especially if you 
have not tried it before, but it worked in my case - strange.

Best regards Annie.

Hi.

Maybe we should start a production grin.

I have one for my 5 and also 1 for my 5s, which is a really case, which holds 
the phone in place and which has holes for the camera and the other buttons on 
the phone. but unfortunately it does not look as the firm who makes them will 
make a new one or at least they will not answer my mail, so maybe they have 
closed down.

Best regards Annie.

Re: Screen protector issue on iPhone 6 - message from manufacturer

2014-10-01 Thread Annie Skov Nielsen
Hi.

This is interesting. Is there any cases with built in screen protectors, I 
think it may be a solution. In the old days I had one for my IPad, you could 
get a case, with a sort of plastic cover where you could use the phone through. 
Maybe you will need to make a hole for the home button, but I think that may be 
a solution.

Re: Braille input mode

2014-09-30 Thread Annie Skov Nielsen
Hi David.

I only think it is the IPad that has the 8 dots input option unfortunately. I 
hope we can get apple to make it for the IPhone 6 plus.

Have you tried with the three finger swipe to change modes.
Best regards Annie.

Re: Anyone tried Talking Goggles on lcd displays with the new IPhone 6 + camera?

2014-09-30 Thread Annie Skov Nielsen
Hi.

I would say that the big difference is that talking goggles work faster, and I 
get better results with scanning apps. A great example is redlaser if i will 
grab a barcode, on the 5 I really had to search some time for it, normally with 
my 5s it really goes fast, it is as if it searches a bigger surface. I hope you 
can use that.

Best regards Annie.

If anyone would like screen protectors to use when typing with apples onscreen

would like that option they will probbably make it. Just to let you know.

Re: File attachments in IOS 8.

2014-09-23 Thread Annie Skov Nielsen
Ok I have now tried with a 3 finger swipe up, it did not work, in the end I 
figured out that  you can not swipe to the file you will have to hit it with 
your finger when reach the last page. The item chooser behaves strange, at last 
I found it there but was not able to open the file. this will cause me 
troubles. I am not really good at using the screen, mostly I use braille.
If anyone finds a work arround with a braille display, please let me know.

Best regards Annie.
