Couple of IOS 12 Questions

[Blind Treasures {Your One Stop Shop}]

Couple of questions I hope someone can shed a little light on! 

Firstly, how do you go about adding a phone number from a text message to a
new contact? I for my life cannot figure it out. Secondly, has anyone else
noticed that now when creating a new text message and wanting to add an
emoji that voiceover will no longer read what it is? Mine just announces
"Meme images" as I swipe through them.

RE: Setting up the "say cheese" Siri shortcut

[Blind Treasures {Your One Stop Shop}]

What I don't like about the shortcuts, unless, I am doing something
incorrect, is that when the shortcut is complete it puts you in the shortcut
app. So, if I use the say cheese shortcut from the home screen, when the
pitcher is taken I am left in the shortcut app.

IOS 12 and Bluetooth

[Blind Treasures {Your One Stop Shop}]

I know it is probably something I'm just not noticing but after updating to
IOS 12 the Bluetooth indicator that used to show on the status line, no
longer shows even when Bluetooth is on. Anyone else had this issue and is
there a way to get it to show again?

Interesting Text Tone Issue

Headphone Help

easily portable. If anyone has a recommendation I would appreciate it.

OverDrive Help

[Blind Treasures {Your One Stop Shop}]

I just recently got signed up with my local library and installed OverDrive
which I am enjoying tremendously. However, I am wondering if there is any
other

method of fast forwarding and rewinding other than the 15 seconds button
shown or having to go back a hole chapter at a time. Thanks for any help in
this

matter. I downloaded the new RS Games app onto my IPhone 6s and am having a
couple issues that I'm wondering if it is just me. Firstly, whenever I send
a chat message the background music goes away. Secondly, the speech will go
away in the middle of a game and I will have to dump the game and go back
in. This happens quite often. I tried unloading voiceover and just use the
built in speech but does the same thing. This happens with both the Alex
voice and any of the others. Is anyone else finding these bugs as well?

RE: question about Dice world

[Blind Treasures {Your One Stop Shop}]

I wrote the developer and this is what I was told:

 

Hi 

===

The sounds have been upgraded to correctly use the volume controls on the
device.  You will need to adjust your voiceover volume relative to the
system volume to get the balance you desire.

 

I then use the volumn buttons on the side to set the sound of dice world and
the volumn in the roder to turn down voice over and everything works fine
now. Hope this helps.

IOS 9..2 Issues

[Blind Treasures]

Since updating to IOS 9.2 on my IPhone 6s I've had the following issues.

1.   Constantly losing focus and being put in the status line 

2.   2. Sometimes when connecting or disconnecting from Bluetooth, get
terrible feedback and have to reboot phone 

3.   3. Alex sounds choppy 

4.   Anyone else experiencing these issues?

He gives his Email address in the description in the itunes store.  I don’t use

Bummer. I guess there is a problem with Shiprack and iOS 9 along with the other 
issues mentioned about lack of updates, etc. I think I'll give Parcel a try too 
since I like having a shipment tracking app that continually works.

I seem to have a similar problem with Shiprack doing the behavior you described

iOS 9.2 came out even though I'm still running iOS 8.3. I've found uninstalling

Good luck.

If I may suggest an alternative, Parcel has put out a lot of updates and it’s a 
really nice package tracking app.  It is very accessible and the nice thing is 
that there also is a web interface where you can log in and you can 
add/remove/edit parcels, see all your parcels which have been delivered and 
which are now archived etc. In iOS 9 you can even use the share sheet to send a 
tracking number in an email directly to the Parcel app and start a new entry, 
if you have a tracking number in the clipboard and tap on “Add” in the app it 
will automatically populate the tracking number field with what is in the 
clipboard and there is also a barcode scanner and as one of the latest features 
Parcel has introduced your own Parcel email which allows you to forward 
tracking emails similar to how Ship Rack worked.

Parcel has also already implemented 3D Touch, if you hard press on the app on a 
6S or 6S Plus you get shortcuts for adding a new delivery or to open the 
barcode scanner.

I believe Parcel costs 99 Cents a year if you want the full functionality with 
push notifications and all. But I’d rather pay a bit for a good tracking app so 
they hopefully stick around rather than not do so and then have them disappear 
like Track This or not update the app to support the latest iOS as seems to be 
the case with Ship Rack.

 

Regards,

Sieghard

Help with Restore of IPhone 6s

[Blind Treasures]

I just got a new IPhone 6s last night and started a restore from ICloud at
the AT store. When I left the store I don't think the restore was
completed so got logged off their WIFI network. I logged onto my own WIFI
network when arriving home but this morning it still says it is performing a
restore. Looking at the icons I don't see where any of them state they are
being restored. I know it doesn't take over 12 hours to do a restore. I also
clicked on ICloud/backup and it shows there is a restore in progress. I can
click on stop restoring IPhone but it says that any data that has not been
downloaded will not be restored or back upped in  the future.

Any suggestions here? I see that I have an IOS update but can't install it
until the restore issue has been taken care of.

When you contact Netflix technical support and request that audio described be

I haven't and audio described works fine now. Hope this helps.

RE: apple tv 4th generation thoughts

[Blind Treasures]

Sieghard Thank you for your responses but sending it back isn’t an option since 
I was told by the customer service person that it couldn’t be returned. Also, 
why is that the answer given every time someone gives there opinion on this 
list, “well if you don’t like it just send it back”. I do think those features 
you mentioned are neat but personally not worth $150.00 to me and you can 
already move forward and backwards on the apple tv 3. My home is full of apple 
products so even if I could I wouldn’t send it back I just said if I had to do 
it over again I would have been a little more patient and purchased it further 
down the road. If having Siri is worth the purchase to you then by all means go 
for it!

Firstly, while it has its challenges, saying it doesn’t offer anything over the 
third gen isn’t quite accurate. For one thing it has SIRI and just being able 
to skip forward and backward while playing a movie is a really nice feature all 
by itself. Also searching for movies with SIRI is quite nice.

I also like the fact that I can press the menu button three times quickly to 
turn Voiceover on or off, not sure if this worked on the third gen, but on my 
second Gen I had to press and hold it and then select to turn off Voiceover 
from the little menu.

Also, you say you had it for a few weeks, if it’s less than 30 days just pack 
it back up and return it to Apple for a full refund if you don’t like it at 
this point. You can always repurchase it a year or so down the road when it’s 
more complete.

 

Regards,

Sieghard

Here is my two cents for what it is worth! I’ve have owned the apple TV 4 for a 
few weeks now and I also own the apple TV 3.

Firstly, let me say that I have no doubt that the apple TV 4 will do nothing 
but get better in time, however, if I had it to do over again I would not have 
purchased the apple TV 4 at this time. In my opinion, right now the apple TV 4 
has nothing to offer us that the apple TV 3 already  does except a higher price 
tag. 

I really like the layout of the new remote but like Kerri already stated it is 
very sensitive but not very responsive. I find myself swiping several times to 
get it to move where I want it to, and if you’re watching something with the 
remote in your hand, you better lay the remote down somewhere because if you 
rub against the remote you will activate something. I was so frustrated with 
the new remote I went to Amazon and purchased me another one of the standard 
remotes to use with the apple TV 4. 

As far as apps, right now there just isn’t enough there that is accessible to 
justify the cost for us when you can purchase an apple TV 3 for $69.99 and get 
a lot more for your bucks. 

Don’t get me wrong, I’m not bashing the apple TV 4 just stating that I should 
have been a little more patient and waited a little while before purchasing.

Hello. I have owned this 4 generation tv for 2 weeks and here are my thoughts. 
The remote is sensitive but yet I find it unresponsive in areas like the app 
switcher for example. The other issue I find is apps--I site ABC news--is not 
as clearly laid out as it is in the apple TV third generation. For example in 
this app if you want the show 20/20, this app does not specify but states 1 of 
10 in a given area of the app. I also think as others have stated that it is 
expensive for how much like  a beta it feels. but it is good and it hopefully 
will improve.

RE: Temporary fix for Netflix audio description on the 4th gen apple TV

[Blind Treasures]

Can you explain exactly what you said to Netflix because when I called them
the lady had no idea how to fix the audio description. She kept wanting to
turn on sub captioning. Then she said I had to go into Netflix and swipe
down on the remote, then swipe right, and then swipe left. Any help  you can
supply would be very helpful.

RE: Apple TV Issue

[Blind Treasures]

I did some additional testing and discovered the following:
I took the 3rd generation apple TV which is my new one from downstairs and
connected it upstairs where the 2nd generation is having the reboot issues.
I connected it with the optical audio cable just like the 2nd generation
was. The 3rd generation played with no issues at all. So, in closing it
isn't the optical cable like I suspected. So, back to the drawing board and
hoping for some suggestions.

RE: Apple TV Issue

[Blind Treasures]

Sieghard I did some additional tests and I now think I know what the issue
is but not sure how to fix it. Here is the current setup.
Downstairs: I have the newer apple TV connected to a Samsung TV via a H D M
I cable and setup as wireless. No issue with this setup at all. Can stream
video and audio.
Upstairs: I am using the older apple TV here and have it setup as wireless
as well. Now, instead of using a H D M I cable, I have it connected to a DAK
via an audio cable. The DAK has two speakers connected to it. I can stream
ITunes radio stations with no interruption at all. However, if I try to
stream anything with video the apple TV will reboot.
Now, as an experiment, I took the apple TV from upstairs and connected it
downstairs, replacing the newer one, via the H D M I cable and had no
problems. So, I am guessing that the issues has something to do with the
type of connection I am using with the digital cable upstairs. I've read on
this list that others have used just a digital cable with no problems so not
sure how to resolve this. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I
hope I explained things well enough.

I have a strange issue going on with my apple TV. I moved it upstairs to my

RE: Apple TV Issue

[Blind Treasures]

Richard The router is downstairs but I have a good wireless signal upstairs.
2 out of 3 bars. I can play ITunes music without any issues but when trying
to stream video the apple TV will reboot, (well, at least voice over does,
so I am assuming that the apple TV is as well). 
I went under settings/ITunes Store and set the video resolution down to
standard but it didn't help. I am guessing that even though my IPhone says
there is a good signal, it isn't good enough for streaming video.

RE: Latest Amazon Echo Update Awful

[Blind Treasures]

I am using internet explorer to access the echo site and didn't have any
issues. It was a little sluggish but workable. Don't get me wrong, Amazon
still needs to do a lot of work in the accessibility area.

What browser are you using to access the Amazon echo website? I have a
friend who has tried with Internet Explorer and Firefox using windows, and
hasn't been lucky at all. I do know someone else using Windows who has had
success. I did it on a Mac, and it was hit and miss, but I did finally get a
few things done. I certainly wouldn't do it on a regular basis. It's
unnecessarily weird. But then Amazon's website is unnecessarily complicated.

RE: Problems With the ADT Pulse App Update

[Blind Treasures]

You can count the images and create a pin but it does no good to get into
the pulse app because everything in the app is totally inaccessible. They
really did a great job in breaking VO. We have contacted them via phone but
they have no idea what voice over even is. We were told they would pass the
information onto the correct people but I don't hold much hope they will fix
it. Big disappointment.

Anyone tried this app?

Has anyone tried the app called iYomube? It is an app that will read text in

or better than goggles It is supposed to be able to read signs as well. Any
feedback would be appreciated.

Another very cool timer is called Times Up. It has different voices that

also create your own time limits. It costs $1.00 but I think it is worth it.

Another weird Issue with the update

[Blind Treasures]

Here is another weird issue I've had since updating to 8.0 and now 8.1.
About 50% of the time when I make a FaceTime call via audio or video, the
person on the other end cannot hear me. I have to reboot the phone and then
FaceTime again and everything is fine until next time. 
I've even tried restoring the phone which was a pain but nothing changed.
Anyone have suggestions?

Help with Capti

[Blind Treasures]

When I updated to 8.0 and now 8.1 when trying to set a voice up in Capti I
get thrown out of the app. This happens every time attempting to set a voice
as a default. As soon as I click on voices, it opens the screen and then
seconds later, throws me out. Anyone else had this issue with capti? Any
suggestions would be appreciated.

Weird Siri Issue

[Blind Treasures]

I'm having a weird issue with Siri ever since I upgraded to 8.0 and it is
still present with 8.1. After using Siri a couple times and go to use her
again, I will get an immediate double beep which gives me no chance to ask a
question. I will then need to reboot and everything is fine for a couple
more usages. This will happen every few times I use Siri then I have to
reboot again to use her. Anyone else experienced this? I never had an issue
with Siri until I upgraded.

RiVO and IOS 8

[Blind Treasures]

I'm thinking about purchasing the RiVO keyboard but have a couple of
questions I hope someone can answer.
First of all is there any issues with the RiVO and IOS 8? I've read the
issues that there is with Bluetooth keyboards and didn't know if it applies
to the RiVO as well. Secondly, has anyone used the RiVO with the apple TV?
Thanks in advance.

RE: Hand Writing

[Blind Treasures]

When you are at the home screen and want to find an app, you can use the
rotor to switch to handwriting and then write the first letter of the app
and all apps with that letter will appear. You can then just tap on the app
name to open it up. 
However, now since updating to IOS 8, when switching the rotor to
handwriting and typing a letter, voice over will crash and then come back.
I've tried this both on my IPhone 5s and my IPad mini with the same results.

Jail Break Help

I'm wanting to give IOS 8 a try but my phone is currently jail broken. I
would like to save my jail break settings and apps. Can someone who has gone
through this tell me what is the best way to go about making a copy of my
settings and app so I can restore it back later when IOS 8 has been jail
broken? I use to have an app called Xfile which would do it but I don't
think it works anymore since IOS 7.  Thanks for any help.

For People wanting to downgrade back to 7.1.2

[Blind Treasures]

For those who are having serious issues with the new 8.0 firmware, I found
this information that may be helpful. I have not done this myself so have no
idea if it works or not. Just passing it on.


Downgrade from iOS 8 to iOS 7.1.2

If you had accidentally upgraded your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch to iOS 8 or
don't like it or are finding 
performance issues on older iOS devices and want to downgrade back to iOS
7.1.2, then the good news is that you can downgrade as Apple seems to be
still signing the iOS 7.1.2 firmware file.
Important points to note:
. You will be able to downgrade back only to iOS 7.1.2
. It is important to take a backup of your iOS device to iCloud or using
iTunes.
. Please note that when you downgrade back to iOS 7.1.2, you will be able to
restore back to iOS 7.x.x compatible backup and not the iOS 8 backup to
avoid compatibility issues.
. Apple doesn't recommend downgrading so please proceed at your own risk.
Please follow these simple instructions to downgrade to iOS 7.1.2:
. Download the appropriate iOS 7.1.2 firmware file for your device
. Connect the device running iOS 8 to your computer.
. Launch iTunes and select the iOS device from the top right corner, to the
left of the iTunes Store button.
. Hold the Alt/Option key in Mac or Shift Key in Windows on your keyboard
and click on the Restore iPhone/iPad/iPod touch button in iTunes. Important
please read: Alternatively, you can also click on the Check for Update
option, instead of restoring. We were able to successfully downgrade from
iOS 8 to iOS 7.1.2 using this step, but we are not sure what issue it can
have on the data. So it is probably a good idea to use the Restore method,
though it will be more time consuming. If you
iTunes - Check for Update
. If you've Find My iPhone enabled then it will prompt you to turn it off
before restoring your iPhone/iPad or iPod touch.
. Select the ipsw file you had downloaded earlier.
. iTunes will inform that it will erase and restore your iOS device to iOS
7.1.2 and will verify the restore with Apple.
. Click Restore.
. iTunes should now restore your iOS device to iOS 7.1.2.
. After a restore, the iOS device will restart. You should then see Slide
to set up. Follow the steps in the iOS Setup Assistant.
. You can then restore your device from a backup if required.
That's it. You should now be successfully downgraded to iOS 7.1.2. It may
prompt you to activate your device.
Please note that Apple can stop signing iOS 7.1.2 firmware files any moment
so downgrade back to iOS 7.1.2 as soon as possible. You won't be able to
downgrade back to iOS 7.1.2 once Apple stops signing the firmware file.

First Impression of the Seeing Eye GPS

[Blind Treasures]

Today I purchased a one month subscription of the seeing eye gps so that I
could compare it to blind square which I currently use. Before I begin let
me give some idea of my surroundings. I live in a townhouse which is only
about a five minute walk to a shopping strip. I currently just have to walk
out my front door take a right down the sidewalk for about 50 steps, take a
left staying on the sidewalk with a street on my right, go about 0.2 mile
until I get to the entrance to the shopping strip, take a left, walk about
10 steps, get up on the sidewalk and I am at the beginning of the stores. 
Now, I fired up the seeing eye gps to take a walk to the food lion which is
one of the stores in that strip. The seeing eye gps gave me very good
directions until I reached the entrance to the shopping strip. I liked the
fact it gives you detailed intersection info. 
However, when I turned left into the shopping strip the seeing eye app
wanted me to continue straight until I reach the next major intersection. I
tried doing a recalculate but it didn't make any difference. Even when I was
right in front of the food lion it was still giving me directions to the
next intersection.
I think that the seeing eye gps is great when you are walking or driving
down streets but when you get into areas like shopping centers blind square
seems to be better in locating specific buildings.
Anyone using the seeing eye gps have any tips on how to get better walking
directions in situations like mine?

Bluetooth Keyboard

[Blind Treasures]

I know this had been discussed before on this list but like most, I didn't
pay attention at that time. I'm looking for a small Bluetooth keyboard that
can switch between at least three different devices without having to pare
each time. I would like it to have nice tactual keys as well. Any
suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

ShipRack Help

[Blind Treasures]

I've been using shiprack for a while but here lately I am no longer
receiving notifications when status changes. I've checked shiprack's
settings and everything seems to be set correctly. I've also check under
settings/notifications and shiprack is set to receive notices. Is anyone
else who is using shiprack experiencing the same problem?

Finger Print and App Store

Blind Square Help

[Blind Treasures]

I've recently moved into a new home in which there is a shopping center in
close walking distance so trying to utilize blind square to help me identify
what stores are in the shopping center. Right now I have blind square set to
announce directions via degree but it seems to be giving directions
backwards. It will announce that a store is to the right when it is really
to the left. I've tried placing the phone in my pocket facing different
directions but doesn't seem to make a difference. Can someone who has used
blind square more give me some suggestions? 
Lastly, does blind square seem to notify you more accurately when a
destination is set as a favorite or if you search for a place and then start
tracking it, or does it make a difference? Hope all this makes scence and
someone can give me some tips.

Pandora Response to accessibility

[Blind Treasures]

I know this is a little off topic but thought people using Pandora should
hear what type of people they are supporting. Find below the response that a
blind person received from Pandora when asking if they could make their app
more accessible. Atrocious!
I have removed Pandora from my Iphone and will never use it again!

These guys have sunk to an all new low. This was taken from a friend of
mines facebook.



This was a reply from Pandora tech support to a blind user. I happen to know
that the original message that was sent enquiring about the latest
accessibility issues in the Pandora IOS app were not insulting in any way.
So, this reply is totally unacceptable. I no longer have Pandora, and will
never recommend it to anyone, blind or sighted. The reply follows.



Yeah yeah, we know we know. You're not the first blind dude who's written
us. rest totally assure we're aware of the problem. We can't tell you when
or if this problem will be fixed. The truth is, we really don't support
blind people. Perhaps you should go find another app that is more let speech
hold your hand while you cross the street friendly. Maybe our app is too
hard for you non-seeing beings. Just shows what a disaster it is to be born
blind, hum?



Anyway, tell your little friends to stop writing us, ok? We'll get to it
when we get to it.
