Lol, your method of tex input is Braille, but if you don't know Braille, then you'll use the key combinations to get around on your phone. You can hold down letter p to pause music, hold down h for home, etc. I really enjoy mine, and I had bought the Orbit writer but didn't like it as much.MatthewOn Feb 1, 2024, at 12:13 PM, Sieghard Weitzel  wrote:

Re: Accessible auto cat box

2023-12-20 Thread Matthew Bullis
What’s the brand and model of that one? Is it like the one that I have, where 
it's a rake that sweeps the waste away into a trap, and then you replace the 
box? As I mentioned, the one I have doesn’t use standard litter, so they sell 
boxed trays of it that you replace. Regardless, I would like to know about the 
one you have, especially if the app works well and tells you those metrics. My 
Scoopfree box was about $200, which included one tray to start with.
Thanks,
Matthew

Re: Accessible auto cat box

2023-12-20 Thread Matthew Bullis
I’ve not looked into any boxes with apps, but have used the Scoopfree automatic 
box for eight years. I don’t need to monitor the usage, but can see how you 
might want that for cat health reasons. I point this one out because it works 
just fine without the need for an app, so if having it is enough, then you 
might find it useful. I order the boxes of three trays every three months on 
Amazon, since it uses non-standard litter.

Re: iOS 17.2 Beta now has Journal

2023-10-29 Thread Matthew Bullis
The app sounds intriguing. I have not used such an app before, but I wonder if 
it has a feature where you can add past entries for years ago? That would be 
really helpful for entering significant things you don’t want to forget about. 
Then it would also be nice if it would integrate into the calendar or reminders 
or simply notifications, so that for instance you could get a notification that 
would remind you of an event or entry from this day a year ago, or this day any 
previous year. Perhaps that's too advanced for something like this, but that is 
the way I would want to use an app like this. The calendar wouldn't have been 
appropriate for this, but maybe this new one could? Do you notice anything like 
what I’ve described?
Thanks, Matthew

Hello, to get around this issue, I bought this several years ago. You connect 
an HDMI cable to it, and then to the Apple tv, and you send your audio out 
through the RCA jacks. It's used for those times when tvs or gaming consoles 
don’t have their own audio outputs, and you need to have them for some external 
speakers. It's about a thirty dollar item:

Interesting IOS16 feature, email follow-up sending mail back to the inbox.

2022-11-13 Thread Matthew Bullis
Hello, I thought I’d send a message about this new switch in the mail settings 
in IOS16. It's just after the privacy setting, and before the threading 
options. It's called follow-up suggesttions. Reading about this feature 
answered my internal question about why some sent mail was ending up in my 
inbox a few days later. I wonered if it was waiting to send that message until 
that later date, or what was going on. It turns out that yes the mail goes out 
when you send it, but if you have questions within that email to whomever, then 
Apple thinks you might want to follow up, if that person doesn’t reply to your 
message. If you like this feature, it's on by default, but if not, switch it 
off and your messages will not return to your inbox like they have been.

Re: Fake stereo mode on Airpods Pro 2?

2022-10-30 Thread Matthew Bullis
Thank you for those clear directions. This has fixed the problem, though I did 
need to repeat the process when playing a file in Dropbox. I’m not sure if this 
is because you can choose to have that mode on or off on a per-app basis or 
not. Regardless, I know how to fix this issue now.

Hi Richard,
I think they are talking about voiceover being heard and stereo rather than 
audio playback. It cuts in and out doing this on the AirPods too. Hope this

Fake stereo mode on Airpods Pro 2?

2022-10-29 Thread Matthew Bullis
I just upgraded from the second generation Airpods to the Pro second generation 
which just came out, because my Airpods I’ve had for three years died. When 
playing a Bard book, or any other mono source, I would describe the audio as  
kind of a fake stereo with slight echo. It should sound like it's coming 
directly in the middle of my head, but it's spread out like it's a stereo file. 
I originally had the spatial audio on, but that made the voice move when I 
moved my head, and I didn’t like that. Once I turned that off, the moving 
stopped, but this fake stereo is still here. Is there a setting I can change, 
or is this just how these earbuds render the audio?
Thanks,
Matthew

The email below is from BARD Support.
 
Announcing BARD Mobile for iOS 2.0
We're excited to tell you that NLS has released version 2.0 of BARD Mobile for 
iOS. In this version, the BARD Website option is replaced by a new and powerful 
search engine that has the following abilities:
"  Search by keyword, title, author, or annotation.
"  Search for either braille or audio content.
"  Use the Keyword search to search for narrators.
"  Search for items in the Music collection, including music 
appreciation and instructional materials as well as music scores.
"  Access all the options available from books in your wish list, 
Recently Added Books, etc., such as downloading directly from the search 
results page and viewing all the books by the same author or in the same series.
"  Enter an author's or narrator's name in any format and without 
quotation marks and get reliable results.
"  Enter words from a title without quotation marks and get reliable 
results.
"  Enter multiple types of information in a Keyword search, such as 
part of a title and an author's last name or a title and narrator's name, and 
get reliable results.
"  Change the type of search after you conduct the original search.
"  Sort search results by title, author, or latest (the publication 
date).
To conduct a search, choose the Search option at the top of the Get Books 
screen, just above Wish List. Keyword is the default search type, and Audio is 
the default format. Change these settings if you like, type or dictate search 
terms in the search field, and choose Go or Search. To change the format or 
type of search from the Search Results page, select the search field at the 
top; all the options on the original search page are now available. To sort the 
search results, choose Title, Author, or Latest. To access options such as 
Download and viewing other books by the same author with VoiceOver, touch the 
title of interest, flick up or down to the desired choice, and double-tap. If 
you don't use VoiceOver, select the More info button to the right of the title, 
and then choose either Download, Add to Wish List, or More Actions.
Additionally, Version 2.0 fixes problems with:
"  Rewind controls skipping further than intended.
"  Side loading books.
"  Downloading and reading non-ASCII foreign language book titles.
The update should be available by Friday, September 23rd. We hope you enjoy it.

Can't use Seeing AI on iphone 8.

2022-03-07 Thread Matthew Bullis
I have a client who has an iphone 8, and is unable to use any of the camera 
features of the Seeing AI app, except that the short text option does work. I 
have uninstalled and reinstalled the app, but this doesn’t fix the problem. The 
phone is running the latest updates, so I’m not sure what could be the problem. 
Before I recommend a new phone, I thought I’d ask here, in case this has come 
up before
Thanks,

Displaying the time when in sleep focus mode?

Hello, I have a work focus set up plus the sleep focus that I previously set up 
in health. While in the work focus, the time is displayed on the lock screen, 
but not while in the sleep focus. I even turned on the clock app, but in order 
to get the time, I have to dismiss the sleep screen. Is there something else I 
need to do in order to get the time on the lock screen in the sleep focus?

New Cloudbeats update seems inaccessible.

2021-05-26 Thread Matthew Bullis
The new update for the cloudbeats app seems inaccessible. I even used screen 
recognition and notice some of my Dropbox filenames there, but can't click on 
any, including the email developers link. Does anyone have the email so I can 
write to them? I think I paid six dollars for this app, so that I could play 
entire Dropbox folders without interruption.
Thanks,
Matthew

Re: Withings scale

2021-05-04 Thread Matthew Bullis
I bought a Withings Body Plus scale and it does require sighted assistance to 
set up. the app seems not to register any weight that's different from what you 
program. The scale makes no beeps or anything to let you know that it's 
working, and it seems you have to stand on a certain section for the weight to 
show up. It's the health mate app, and the results show up in the Apple health 
app as well. It's not the best solution, but the best one I've found right now.

I just saw an article about this scale, which sells for a not insignificant

My question is: does anyone have this? If so, how well does it work with 
voiceover? Paying that much to get a bunch of measurements that I can’t read is 
not in my plan. Smile.

Re: Asking a question on Facebook with the IOS mobile app

2021-05-02 Thread Matthew Bullis
I have found that when using the question form within a group, the first part 
isn't very accessible, because at least for me, using braille screen input 
doesn't speak. Then I get to the next screen where I fill out the whole 
question. The first part that didn't read back to me is as an attachment, and 
only reads out after the whole question has been posted. Therefore, what I do 
is simply put the question in the first line of a regular group post. After I 
post, Facebook puts up a notification that my post has been formatted as a 
question to get beter response. That's how I get around the inaccessibility.

Accessible stereo receiver with analog inputs with app or home kit?

2021-05-01 Thread Matthew Bullis
Kind of a long subject line, but I'm looking for a stereo receiver with several 
analog RCA inputs, able to be controlled either by an accessible home kit 
interface or an app. Most of the articles I am reading are focussing on home 
theater setup with massive surround sound features and video inputs. I think 
about the fanciest I would get is one where you could have two sets of stereo 
speakers playing the same thing. I read where a Marantz has an option to stream 
to a Bluetooth speaker, so that could be an option for my second listening 
area. This stereo is going to be used for things like turntables, cassette 
decks and reel to reel machines, all input through RCA. I'm not sure if any 
options already come with speakers, but I would want to upgrade the ones I have 
now.
Thanks for any suggesttions on a very overwhelming subject.
Matthew

Recording an audio iMessage with an iphone 12.

2020-12-04 Thread Matthew Bullis
Hello, I upgraded from a 6 s plus to a 12 pro max. I don't remember when they 
took 3d touch out of the phones, but my 6 s plus has it, and this one doesn't. 
That hasn't been a big deal, because I just one finger double tap and hold and 
get the result I want. However, this isn't working so well when I want to make 
an audio iMessage. On the 6 s plus, I simply hold down on the record audio 
button, and whether it's a minute or two while I'm talking, it will end when I 
lift up. If I do this now on the new phone by double tap and hold, it will work 
for short messages of about five seconds, but it seems that if it goes ten 
seconds or longer, I lift my finger and voiceover says pause and the camera 
buttons and apps hidden. There doesn't seem to be a recording there anymore, 
and activating the pause turns to play, but no audio is played. Am I doing 
something wrong, or is this broken? It's one of my preferred ways of sending 
messages to other iphone users.
Thanks,Matthew

Re: Hulu again

2020-12-02 Thread Matthew Bullis
I have the same issue apparently. I've not used this app in a while, but if I 
flick right, I just get repeated options and detailsover and over. If I drag my 
finger around the screen, I get some tv info, but it's not helpful. I thought 
turning on screen recognition would change the behavior, but it didn't. I have 
the latest phone and operating system.

Hi Chris,
My default default voice is Alex. But I do have another voice and that is the

through TV show listings is an unhelpful mention of the season number and the 
episode number, and perhaps the episode title, but not the title of the show 
itself. So it’s not helpful. Which voice are you using. I would be astonished 
if that mattered, but it might.

iphone transferring to Homepod questions.

2020-11-29 Thread Matthew Bullis
Hello, some general questions about transferring from iphone to either the 
Homepod or the mini. I have neither one, but am planning on getting the regular 
Homepod and possibly the mini for another room. I'm interested in the transfer 
feature, and would use this to basically play most of my audio. My question is 
if I hold the iphone up to the Homepod to transfer music or a podcast, 
Voiceover stays on the iphone unless I change the audio destination? Also, when 
the music or podcast ends, does the next piece of music or next podcast still 
stay on the Homepod, or does it return back to the iphone so that I need to 
hold the phone up to the Homepod again? How far away can I be with the iphone 
before it disconnects from the Homepod and comes back to the iphone itself? 
Does the connection drop after a while?
Thanks,
Mathew

Re: Does hand offf work with the original HomePod?

2020-11-18 Thread Matthew Bullis
Although I don't yet have a Homepod, is this the feature where you hold the 
phone about an inch or so away from the Homepod, or are you actually talking 
about finishing a task on one device from another, such as an email? The music 
transfer feature should work already, and Voiceover should stay on the phone. 
That's what I'm hoping for when I get my Homepod, probably later this year.

Re: Lapel Mics and Connecters

2020-11-12 Thread Matthew Bullis
I bought the Rode SC 6 L kit that has two lapel microphones plus an adapter 
that has the headphone out in the middle position, with a microphone in on 
either side of that. This will then allow you to hear Voiceover and the output 
of the microphone. The app you use determines whether you hear yourself in 
realtime though, so you may have to do some experimenting. The purchase of the 
USB3 camera adapter is a good choice as well. I also have a Blue Yeti microfone 
that I use for stationary recording, and it plugs into this. I believe that the 
adapter I mentioned is just called the SC 6 without the microphones. Rode are 
an Australian company, but I got this set from
www.Sweetwater.com
who ship out from Indiana.

Hi, I bought a lavalier mic to record into my iPhone. I figured I
would use my AirPods to still listen to sound, but on connecting the
lavalier to the 3.5 MM jack on my 6S, I lost all sound. I did some
research. Some people claim a splitter would help if I want to use
another 3.5 MM set of earbuds. I don’t mind spending a few bucks to
buy a splitter, but then I found posts claiming this method was not
working in recent models of iDevices, understanding I would need an
adapter to plug into the lightning port. Can anyone offer other
suggestions? I’m going to buy the camera kit and powered hub to
connect a better mic, but I like the idea of carrying around this
smaller lapel mic when I need to present in some place other than my
home or office. Thanks for any suggestions.--Joe

Re: still seeking media player app to use with Dropbox

2020-11-11 Thread Matthew Bullis
I bought the six dollar version of Cloudbeats, since the free version doesn't 
give you access to all of the files in folders with more than a certain number 
of files. Does anyone know if Cloudbeats will use the music on your phone 
instead of streaming from your Dropbox if you have selected content in offline 
Dropbox?

Re: Face I.D

I would say to those who are going to experience this for the first time, just 
like I am when I get my phone on Friday, that you should at least experience 
the feature. You should be able to turn it off later if you truly don't want 
it. That's my teacher mode there, as this is what I would say to a student of 
mine with any new feature or process on computer or iphone.

Re: Face I'D

2020-11-11 Thread Matthew Bullis
Hello, I am about to get my first phone with face id, and am fairly confident 
about it. I understand that you can set a second face id profile. Will it 
accept that profile if you are wearing a mask? Have you tried that yet? I also 
wonder if one of the options for the backtap setting in voiceover commands 
could be set to a series of digits? This way you could tap twice or three times 
and it could enter your passcode. That's a slight security risk, but if you're 
the only one using your phone, and you don't let it out of your hands, perhaps 
it could work. I can't check this yet, and didn't hear anything about it, but 
it's an idea I had.
Matthew

Hello All, 
Well, Talking about face id, just my personal opinion, lately face id is not as 
secure as I would like.  For the simple fact, Face id doesn't work with a face 
mask.  So when I'm in the store, and using my phone to pull up my grocery list, 
I have to enter my six digit security code, and a shopper from the store is 
right there listening, as well as other customers.  Well, I gave up on using 
Apple pay for the very same reason face id doesn't work either.  This isn't a 
good security system.  Oh sure I can use my Bluetooth head phones, but then I 
can't hear the scanner telling me the price of my groceries, so I know I'm not 
being over charged.  There are also other times when I might need to unlock my 
phone as well.  So the only time face id works for me is when I'm home, and I 
don't wear a mask in my house.  Apple  really should have done something about 
the face id and wearing face maskes. 
This is not  good security!  LOL!  
I would much prefer touch id as opposed to face id!   I think right now, touch 
id is much more secure!  Maybe we need to go back in time!  Smile!

Data types and cabling two iphones together?

2020-10-17 Thread Matthew Bullis
Hello, I have the usb3 camera adapter which my workplace bought for my use with 
a usb microphone. I understand that two iphones can be cabled together for data 
transfer. My question is will it only deal with icloud data, or will it 
actually transfer downloaded  music, Audible books, and that type of content to 
the new phone? Can this be done at any time, or must it be done when first 
setting up the new phone?
Thanks,Matthew

Preparing for face ID as a new user.

2020-10-16 Thread Matthew Bullis
Hello, so I've held onto my 6s plus for five years, since I had a bunch of 
music and books on it. I'm planning on upgrading to the 12 max, since I want 
the long battery life and the screen size for braille screen input. I'll be 
upset if touch ID comes back in a phone in the next year, because I will have 
spent money in this phone, but oh well. My main question is about the lock 
screen. From working with the phones of the students I teach, I'm comfortable 
with the gesture of press, slide, and lift to do the home and other things, but 
was checking on a few other things. I understand that you won't accidentally 
buy something just when you face towards the phone, because you need to click 
the side button twice, but will it stay on the lock screen while you're 
flipping through your notifications until you actually perform the home 
gesture? If you tap on a notification, I'm assuming you'll need to perform the 
home gesture to activate that part, then another home gesture to come out to 
the main screen? Is that correct?
Thanks, Matthew

The autoplay switch in the music app seems broken.

2020-10-16 Thread Matthew Bullis
Hello, if you're listening to your music with a specific album, now there's a 
switch that plays related music after your album or playlist finishes. I 
personally don't like this feature, and the switch shows up if you press on the 
album artwork. However, it says either on or selected on, so I don't know if 
this is broken from a Voiceover standpoint. I have not gotten this to turn off, 
and so before I send an email to accessibility, I wanted to check here first to 
see if anyone else has had this similar problem.
Thanks,
Matthew

Access to charging sensor while having belt clip on case?

2020-10-10 Thread Matthew Bullis
In preparation for getting a new iPhone and case when the new ones come out, 
I'm upgrading from a 6s plus. If I go the route of finding stands or charging 
pads to rest the new phone on, can this coexist with something like those 
stick-on nubs that click into a belt clip? Right now, the nub I have on my case 
is on the far left edge of the case at the midpoint. Would this put the phone 
off-center so it wouldn't connect to the charging pad? I really find it helpful 
to connect to a belT clip to free up my hands. If I would need to use another 
solution, what have others done?
Thanks,
Matthew

Re: iOS14 not launched today?

It also may take time to be distributed around the world, so you may not see it

Re: Downcast and Alternatives

2020-08-09 Thread Matthew Bullis
Downcast is very customizable both globally and by each podcast. You can adjust 
how often it refreshes, when it deletes episodes, and decide if you want a 
default behavior or something different for each podcast feed. I tried Castro 
but didn't like the structure of it. I really like that Downcast lets you see 
each feed, and you can decide if you want to open that one and see all the 
episodes.

Hi,

I’ve been using Downcast and generally enjoy it. The two features I
enjoy most are the ability to use chapter support as well as the
ability to export episodes to Dropbox, but one thing that drives me
absolutely nutty about Downcast are missing episodes. This morning I
was listening to an episode, took the dog out, and lost Internet
connection. When I came back in, the episode I was listening to had
vanished. It seems to get rid of episodes it thinks I have finished
listening. I’m glad it thinks it’s being helpful, but I’d like to keep
the complete list of episodes available regardless of play time.

First, is there a way to fix this issue on Downcast?

Second, are you using an alternative podcast player you know will give
me the two features I love and avoid the feature I despise? I keep
hearing Jonathan Mosen talk about Castro, and my only hesitation to
check it out is the subscription model. I don’t mind subscription
plans, but for this sort of thing, I would rather pay a large lump sum
up front.

Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.

Re: Best way to Restore a backup to a new Iphone in 2020?

2020-06-20 Thread Matthew Bullis
I have an iphone 6splus, and wonder if it's new enough to take advantage of the 
proximity to the new iphone? I can't remember whether that feature became 
available with the 7 line and newer.
Thanks,

Hello Gerardo,

In most cases, there's no advantage to restoring from an iTunes backup. Unless 
you have a very old version of iTunes that stores your apps on your computer, 
the apps will be downloaded over the Internet regardless of how you are 
restoring. If you use an encrypted iTunes backup, the same information will be 
backed up either way. If you don't encrypt your backup, health data and 
passwords won't be backed up. In both cases, you have to restore from the 
backup as part of the setup process, so if your carrier sets up your phone, 
you'll have to start over either way.

Best,
Anna

Accessible app to record a phone interview?

2020-05-16 Thread Matthew Bullis
Hello, I've not had need to record a phone interview before, but always thought 
it might come up. Has anyone used an accessible app that you'd recommend? So 
far, I'm trying to cable the phone to a mixer with a microphone for me, but 
that's complicating the problem. Does the app you'd recommend let you save to 
standard file formats, since I'll be editing the interview later?
Thanks, Matthew

Hello All,

Recently I posted about an on-device, self-voicing Monopoly-like game for iOS, 
called EarsOpoly.

While I continue to enjoy the game, I am all but certain that it will cease to 
function-as-expected in future versions of iOS; primarily because it is no 
longer being maintained by the developer, Kid Friendly Software.

A couple of days ago, I contacted the developers of the official Parker 
Brothers Monopoly game for iOS, Marmalade Games Studio, requesting that they 
add VoiceOver accessibility to Monopoly.

I received a very positive response.  

So, I am asking for your support in contacting Marmalade Games Studio with a 
similar request.  I am certain that they will listen to us if we make our 
voices heard.

To contact them, simply do the following:

1.
Go to: https://www.marmaladegamestudio.com/contact/

This should take you directly to the contact form.  If it does not then go
to:

and then click the Contact link.  A short form will be displayed.

5.

That's all there is to it.

As always, your support is greatly appreciated and I hope someday I will have 
the pleasure of informing the group that the official Parker Brothers Monopoly

Sincerely,

Re: How to rewind an audible book

2020-04-07 Thread Matthew Bullis
The issue I find is that the player is no longer a tab at the bottom, but there 
is a button called miniplayer, which is similar to how this works in the Apple 
Music app. Now in Audible when you tap on a title, it begins to play and the 
screen doesn't really change, and will not open up to the big player screen 
like before. There's a lot of content on the screen, so tap with four fingers 
to get to the last element, then flick backwards until you get the miniplayer 
button. Once that's opened, it will feel familiar. Perhaps Audible can have a 
setting in a future update that causes the player to open when you tap on a 
book, as before. For now, this is how you get to the player controls.

Re: Help with Downcast?

2020-03-17 Thread Matthew Bullis
Although I haven't tried this method, you could still delete and reinstall the 
app after you backed up the info to icloud. You do need to go through and turn 
on various settings, then check to make sure the backup has been completed. As 
I said, I've not deleted and reinstalled, but I hope that if this situation 
comes up, it will keep a record of not only the 250 podcast feeds I've 
subscribed to, but the actual episodes I've chosen.

Hi everyone,
 
On my iPhone, I’ve been using Downcast for my podcasts for a long time.  A few 
days ago, I finished listening to a podcast, and I tried refreshing Downcast to 
download any new ones.  The next time I went back and ran Downcast, there was 
an error message and a question asking if I wanted to send an anonymous report 
about the error message.  Since then, I’ve not been able to listen to any 
podcasts, because Downcast always crashes. 
I was thinking of erasing the app from my phone and redownloading it, but then 
I’d lose all of the podcasts I’ve not heard yet.
Does anyone know what could be wrong and if there’s an alternative answer to my 
situation?

Re: Odd problem between dropbox, my iPhone, and streaming

2019-12-25 Thread Matthew Bullis
The best way I've found to deal with this problem is to invest in a six dollar 
app called Cloud Beats Pro. I tested the free version and liked it. The thing 
that caused me to pay was that it limits your access to ten random files inside 
a folder, and only when you pay do you get the whole folder. I can press play 
on track one and it will play the entire folder of mp3 or flac files. I have a 
lot of concert recordings, and I enjoy listening to the entire show. You 
connect Dropbox to the Cloudbeats app and there you have it. Enjoy, and no 
zipping or unzipping required, by the way.

I don't recommend it, because voice dream reader does such an

up your mp3 file before uploading it to dropbox.  Go to your voice
dream reader library and find the add button, find dropbox and your
zipped mp3 file, download it to voice dream rader, and away you go.
Try a described movie sometime and you will be amazed at how good it
sounds.  Good luck.  You could also do things like zip an entire
season of a favorite tv show and play it on voice dream reader.  I
sometimes use folders in voice dream reader if I want to listen to a
particular audio book series.  That also works well.

Re: AirPods Pro. Any pointers on removing the silicon insert to try a different size?

2019-11-09 Thread Matthew Bullis
I have not invested in these Pro devices, since I just got the Airpods 2 about 
three months ago. Do you know if the Pro models will fit into the case for the 
version 2 Airpods? Are these new ones shaped differently than the previous 
model?

hi, I am in the early phases of trying out my AirPods Pro. The silicon insert

Does anyone have any pointers for how to achieve this without somehow breaking

Thanks in advance for any help. Best, Keith

Re: 1Password or LastPass?

2019-10-22 Thread Matthew Bullis
Is there anything you wouldn't use this program for? Would you use this to 
create your Apple id password? That is about the only thing that I would say 
you might not want to use this for, since you probably couldn't get to the 
password field before you needed to log in.

There is a subscription cost for 1Password, but it is to be able to access your 
passwords across several operating systems. At one time, there was a $10 US 
in-app purchase within the app which offers more categories, such as driver's 
license, wireless routers, and others.
That is a 1 time purchase. I haven't bothered with the subscription since I 
only use it on my iPhone. If I want to get a password on  my Window computer, I 
will copy it from the phone. I have gotten the in-app purchase and have found 
it helpful. It can take a while to set up all of the passwords and other 
information in 1Password, but it is well worth it and totally accessible. For 
my limited use, I haven't come across any accessibility issues. The in-app 
purchase also lets you set up multiple password vaults, which could be for 
home, work, etc.

Which of these two apps does everyone prefer? I’ve heard great things

Perhaps it's the iPhone model you have. All I find is Sounds as well,

Re: Using voice control to enter a passcode

2019-09-24 Thread Matthew Bullis
If you turn the Raise to Wake feature on, then you can have Voice
control swipe right until you get to the Press Home to unlock. Then
have it double tap, then say tap number, tap number, tap number. I did
get it a few times to enter the whole code by saying tap number number
number. In this way, you are able to unlock the iPhone.

Small annoyance in braille screen input.

2019-09-21 Thread Matthew Bullis
While running IOS13, which I upgraded the other day, I notice that after most 
words I'm typing, I hear the little sound that you get when perhaps you get 
when spelling correction. However, I have that turned off, along with text 
prediction. Does anyone know what this is trying to do? It doesn't seem to fix 
any text I write though. The biggest issue I've run into is that you can't use 
the scrub gesture to leave braille screen input. You need to turn the rotor. I 
found no command I could assign for the scrub gesture. I thought one of them 
called quick action might do the trick, but that actually cleared what I wrote. 
Does anyone have any suggesttions, or if there's a setting to be changed?
Thanks,
MatthewS

I was able to download the PBS video app for iPhone last night and
open the series. I had already turned on the audio description in the
iPhone's media settings under accessibility, and when I chose the
episode I wanted, it began the audio description after the initial
logos and such. The describer tells what's happening and who is
talking. It seems to work well.

Re: The Accessibility Bugs Introduced and Resolved in iOS 13 for Blind and Low Vision Users | AppleVis

2019-09-15 Thread Matthew Bullis
Hello, if anyone feels like doing so, can you actually wait to upgrade from 
version 12 to 13.1, or do you need to upgrade to 13 first in order to then get 
the incremental update?
Thanks,

Gadget recommendation: foot pedals to flick left and right.

2019-08-31 Thread Matthew Bullis
Hello, in looking for a gadget which would let me step on pedals to accomplish 
keyboard functions, I found
www.rjcooper.com
and his various adaptive switch controls. I don't get any commission or 
anything, so it's just a recommendation for this unit. I have the ability now 
to step with my lebt foot to flick left, and my right foot to flick right. If I 
hold the pedal down, it will wait a half second then quickly keep flicking in 
that direction. The unit has to be programmed with the keystroke you want that 
switch to perform when you order. The interface unit has several buttons on it, 
but you basically only press the power button. The unit has a screen and no 
beeps or audible feedback. Having this unit press the left and right arrows for 
me allows my fingers not to get so tired when constantly flicking right, and 
occasionally left. The whole package with shipping was $135. Enjoy if you 
decide to have RJ custom make you one, with whatever keystrokes you choose. He 
had not received this request before, so my setup was new to him, though he 
deals with many assistive tech needs, inclueing Voiceover. The arrival was 
about a week from initial phone consultation to having the unit in hand.

Hello, I want to give feedback to the developer of the Downcast app,

really can be better handled with the actions rotor. How do I describe
this Voiceover function in non-Voiceover terms?

Re: have a couple more questions about emails on the phone

2019-08-14 Thread Matthew Bullis
If you want to get out of a message and back into the list, find the back 
button. When you are ready, try a two finger left right left, or up down up. 
This gesture will actually activate the Back button on a screen if there is 
one. When using the edit button method, you can still actually flick up on a 
message and get the delete option, but yes you will want to double tap on a 
message that you want to trash, and after doing that for a while, you might 
want to look at the top of screen and see that it says ten selected, or 33 
selected, and so on. Then you can trash and go and read the ones left over. The 
same method works in the recent calls screen and in the voicemail tab.

Re: really enjoying my new iPhone am doing all kinds of fun stuff

2019-08-14 Thread Matthew Bullis
Hello, one of the best ways to manage email on the phone is to tap the edit 
button, then go through and tap on the emails I don't want. Then tap on the 
trash button. This way, you don't need to flick up to delete the current 
message in the list and accidentally delete a newer message that has put itself 
on top while Voiceover was reading the one you had been on. The buttons along 
the bottom will help you compose or reply. The forward and reply all options 
are within the reply button as further options. When composing a message, after 
a while of writing them, the contact will show up after you put in the first 
few letters. Just keep flicking until you reach the message body.

That screen that says mail, calendar, contacts, etc., is a set of switches that

Re: really enjoying my new iPhone am doing all kinds of fun stuff

2019-08-13 Thread Matthew Bullis
Josh, you may find that putting in your Gmail account into the regular Mail app 
may be good enough. I have used my gmail this way for years, and have not 
needed anything that the Gmail app provides. I guess you could try it both ways 
and see which works the best. Try another app called Eye-d. I found it the 
other day and really enjoy that it has a small GPS feature and some camera 
stuff, so I paid for a couple of extra features.

Re: iPhone Braille dot 5,6

2019-07-07 Thread Matthew Bullis
That's the letter sign. For instance, if you want to type the name Al, dot six 
then a l will give you capital also. However if you do dots 5 6 then a dot six 
then a l, you'll get the name Al. It basically means don't translate this next 
thing as a contraction.

Reachability on the new iphones?

2019-06-27 Thread Matthew Bullis
Hello, when working with my student's new iphone x, I noticed that reachability 
is turned off. I turned it on, and I did manage to hear the swishing sound, but 
don't know how I got that. Can anyone explain how this is done? Googling didn't 
help, and I tried several methods but couldn't repeat whatever I did to get it 
the first time.
Thanks,
Matthew

Re: having trouble entering in my pass code now that I switched to touch typing

2019-06-09 Thread Matthew Bullis
You also have the option of flicking to the right and double tapping on the 
number you want, if the touch and lift method isn't perfected quite yet for 
you. The flick gesture is the most basic one, like tab and shift tab on the 
computer. Also, if you can, have someone help you load the Looktel Voiceover 
tutorial app so you can practice the various gestures.

Hi to all.  I changed my voice over typing to touch typing instead of

my passcode correctly.  I keep disabling my iPhone for fifteen

Re: how do I unsub from this list

2019-06-08 Thread Matthew Bullis
Hi, as a technology teacher, I have to say give the iphone experience a few 
weeks to a month. Check out the basics podcasts on Applevis, or maybe someone 
can be a mentor for you. It takes a few weeks to get in the mindset of the 
iphone. If you're a braille writer, then eventually you will enjoy braille 
screen input instead of the screen keyboard. You can set the typing mode to 
touch tyling so you lift up on the letter you want. Give the iphone some more 
time. You'll not regret it.

On Monday I'm contacting apple to see about getting it returned and

Re: need some advice, a hold up on getting my iPhone, but will get it in a different way

2019-06-04 Thread Matthew Bullis
Hello, could you order it through your phone plan? That's what I did, as far as 
ordering through the Verizon site, including the phone and the case to go with 
it. Your carrier should have all of the options you would want. You will then 
be able to take the Sim card from your existing iphone, if you have one you're 
upgrading from, and put it into your new phone. If you're starting out brand 
new with an iphone, then your carrier should provide a Sim card just the same, 
and you'll turn off your existing phone to activate the new iphone. When the 
new iphone is turned on, click the side button three times, or the home button 
three times if it's not the iphone ten, and Voiceover will come up talking. The 
only thing I get help with is install the little Sim card, because it's very 
small but hopefully some of these directions are useful to you. This is what 
I've learned from helping set up several clients iphones as their technology 
teacher.

This is correct. You can log into the site in question on Safari and purchase

Re: How to access Developer Response of Apps Store reviews?

As best as I've been able to figure out, that button isn't actually active

Voiceover will read that button, then the response they've made. If the above

app developer.

As far as I've known, there hasn't been a button to purchase from the app ever. 
The issue is that if an app sells something, then Apple gets a portion, and so

This feature kind of already exists. If you'll go to the bookshelf

Re: Quite upset with the app Sero

I canceled after I opened the app one day and it didn't log in. It promptly 
deleted all the content I had downloaded, and I had no record of what I had 
downloaded. Also I know they put up material that's on Netflix, which is a 
violation. I declared myself done, even though they do have some things which 
are not available elsewhere.

 I am quite upset with the app Sero. I say this, because I actually started 
paying the six dollars or 599 that they charge for a monthly subscription last 
month. I went in there today to see if there were any new movies that I wanted 
to watch, and was told my free trial was over. I find this extremely

Re: Amazon Prime Video now available for Apple TV Third Generation and newer

Are we sure this is available for the 3rd generation Apple Tv? That doesn't run

not gotten a fourth generation Apple tv and don't intend to. It just doesn't 
fit my workflow at this time.

a little more of a chore in Prime. Sound certainly seems better in Prime. And 
the selection is outstanding.

I had a brief play with it on my 4th Gen Apple TV last night and
noticed a few things. First, there is a voice that starts speaking
when the app detects you are using VoiceOver, along with a VoiceOver
navigation voice. Also, these two voices appear to be the same.
Perhaps I was just hearing things due to the late hour last night, but
it sounded like there were 2 voices of the same kind, like Samantha,
speaking on my Apple TV inside the Prime Video app. Next, it took me a
few swipes on the remote to get it to move anywhere. The first few
swipes would give me the message something like cannot swipe in that
direction. Finally, though I could activate the menus and browse a few
items in the categories, it was a bit frustrating. Hopefully Voiceover
support will improve in future versions. Would be interested in other
opinions since I played with it right before bed.

Surprised nobody noticed this yet,  but when I saw I had 6 app

The description of the iOS app said:

* Watch on your Apple TV directly by downloading the separate TVOS app.
Requires Apple TV Third Generation or later.
* Universal search now supported - search for prime videos using iOS
search/SIRI (US, Canada, Australia, Norway and Sweden only
* iPhone 10 support

This is good timing indeed since I just signed up for the 30-day
Amazon Prime trial, now that we have received our Echo devices and
the app is available it will be worthwhile to pay for it and keep it
going.

Re: accessibility of Libratone Zip speaker

2017-11-06 Thread Matthew Bullis
Hmm, maybe there is something I've not understood about Airplay, but I
only got Airplay to work with my Apple TV 3rd generation, which wasn't
really ideal. I have a JBL OnBeat Rumble speaker, which says it's
Airplay enabled. I do see that the iPhone indicates Airplay as the JBL
speaker, but I've never been able to stream to the speaker itself. I
either have to dock the iPhone or connect via Bluetooth. You say that
if you turn off Bluetooth you will get Airplay. Is it necessary to
turn off Bluetooth to then get this function? I would like Voiceover
to stay on the iPhone while streaming to the JBL speaker. Doesn't this
depend on the Wifi network? I recall there is an app for this speaker,
but it wasn't all that accessible. Would I need to use the app to
configure this?
Thanks,
Matthew

This speech off feature is useful for braille display users who would like to

Re: Turning off voicemail transcription in IOS11:

I wonder though if you change this setting if Siri will expect your accent to

you're still speaking in American English.

As transcription is in U.S English or Canadian English only, you can change 
Siri language to disable the voicemail transcription service on your iPhone.
Step 1. Go to Settings > Siri > Language.
Step 2. Change Siri language to Australian English or Indian English (if it 
doesn’t work, choose Japanese or other language that doesn't sound like 
English).
After changing Siri’s language, voicemail transcription will not be able to 
transcribe your voicemails on iPhone. Instead, it will just show "Transcription 
Unavailable".

Re: OT Netflix

2017-10-05 Thread Matthew Bullis
It's actually illegal for Sero to put up the Netflix content, since
accessing Netflix is accessible with their app. The rule about
circumventing copyright and platform content doesn't then apply.
Before I found a series on Netflix one time, I played it on Sero, and
actually heard someone's Voiceover at the end of the file, since they
were using an Apple TV. There is content on Sero that isn't from
Netflix though, and quite a lot.

Re: turning off do not disturb while driving

I think that the iPhone should activate the camera in this case and it
will see that you're not behind the wheel, thus disabling the
notification for that trip.

Re: Uber Eats

2017-08-25 Thread Matthew Bullis
Uber Eats is a separate app. Once you load it into your iPhone, it
pulls the data from Uber, and you confirm your profile details. Last
year I installed it and it said the service wasn't available in my
area. Two days later it was. I've had very good luck with this app. I
was told by an Uber Eats driver that it's possible for them to drive
for one or both of the services. I ordered both dessert and dinner
last week, and I had to wait until the first order was placed before I
could create a second order, so in this way you must fill your cart
from one restaurant at a time. If you change your mind after beginning
to fill your cart and switch to another restaurant, the app will ask
you if you want to start a new cart, discarding all previous items
you've placed in it. The app is fairly accessible, since sometimes
flicking doesn't produce needed results. You have to touch the screen
and then flick or begin exploring. Headings don't seem as reliable as
they could be, but I believe you'll have a good experience with the
app.

Navigating an html directory on the iPhone?

2017-04-23 Thread Matthew Bullis
Hello, not sure if this is possible, so I thought I'd ask here. I have a 
huge directory of bible materials in html files. On the pc, it allows me 
to go to a book within the bible, choose a chapter, choose other 
chapters, and also switch translations to that exact chapter with links 
at the bottom of the page. These files from Optasia Ministry were best 
suited for pcs or notetakers, but I'm wondering if I can load these onto 
the iPhone with an app? I do have Voice Dream Reader, so I'm not sure if 
that will accomplish the task. Perhaps if I upload a zip or the actual 
folders to Dropbox? Any help with this would be appreciated.

Re: the differences between braille input on the iPhones

2016-12-31 Thread Matthew Bullis
You'll need to experiment to find which mode lets you braille the 
fastest and most efficiently. If you set the mode to use contracted 
braille with a three finger swipe right, the word is translated as soon 
as you press space, so a receiver of your message doesn't know how you 
composed the message. You can configure the dot placement, but you don't 
have to do this each time you enter braille screen mode. You'll soon get 
the feel and shape of your hands on the screen, and will quickly be able 
to use this mode. It's the only way I text and otherwise send output on 
my iPhone, as I never use dictation to talk with people. Having this 
mode was the final clincher that caused me to personally invest in an 
iPhone after having one given to me for my work purposes.

Like witch one of the two will give you the feel of typing on A

get the best results and let you type reasonably fast and can you use 
grade two on the braille input as well?
And if you did this will the text message read fine on the persons end

One last thing when you select braille screen input do you have to

Re: brailling on the 6s and 6s plus

2016-12-31 Thread Matthew Bullis
The braille screen input modes are tabletop, which is straight across 
like a Perkins, and if you tilt the phone towards or away from you, 
you'll get the V shape in two different configurations. You'll need to 
experiment to find which layout you prefer, then lock its orientation.

I actually tried the Supcase Unicorn Beetle Pro case for my iPhone 6S, and

case actually started to bend a bit on either side of where the clip makes 
contact with the case. It also just felt like it couldn't take as much of a 
beating as the OtterBox Defender.

I also tried the Spigen Perfect Armor case with belt clip (you have to buy the 
clip separately from the case) and I wasn't a fan of that one, either. I faced 
similar issues when trying to put the phone in the clip screen-out, and the 
kickstand was utter crap. It just wouldn't support the phone at all. It kept 
falling over, and this was without me touching it.

Since the problems with the early run of OtterBox Defenders for the iPhone 6S 
were fixed by the time I bought mine (I checked with an OtterBox rep before 
buying) I went with it and haven't looked back.

I didn't know you could choose the shape for table-top Braille Screen Input on 
the 6S+. Or did I maybe misunderstand your comment?

Re: brailling on the 6s and 6s plus

2016-12-30 Thread Matthew Bullis
OK, so when you first enable braille screen input mode in the Voiceover 
rotor, it will be in the rotor when you need it. When you're in any text 
field, you twist the rotor to braille screen input. In this mode, 
explore how the dots feel on the screen. If it's flat on the table, the 
dots are straight across. If you tilt the phone toward or away from you, 
the dots change shape. When you get a formation you like and want to 
practice with, swipe up with three fingers to lock that. If you think 
you want to test another mode, swipe down with three fingers to unlock 
the mode. When you're done writing whatever it is in your text field, 
you can twist the rotor to come out of braille mode, use the back 
gesture, or sometimes do a two finger flick right to input the enter 
key, such as when entering a search query. I hope this info helps you 
get started brailling on your iPhone screen. Also, it doesn't matter 
which iPhone you're using. This mode is in the operating system itself, 
so you're limited only by the physical screen size.

Brailliant bluetooth constant messsage

2016-05-16 Thread Matthew Bullis
Hello, whenever I go into the Bluetooth settings for whatever I want to 
accomplish, the alert comes up with Humanware Brailliant display, an OK button 
saying it's not found. I don't always have this display turned on and findable, 
and it's only this device that always has this alert. Humanware say it's 
Apple's message, but I wonder if there's a setting I can change to not get this 
notification every time? The only solution Humanware gave was to forget the 
device, but it was a pain to get it paired in the first place.
Thanks for any help.
Matthew

If I need to restore from computer or iCloud?

2016-03-26 Thread Matthew Bullis
My question is based on some people saying there have been problems with the 
latest update, 9.3. I do hear that this mainly affects older devices, and I 
have the 6SPlus, but it brought to mind this question. If I do need to restore 
from an iCloud or computer backup in the future, will it totally erase the 
music and audio books on the phone, or will it just redo the operating system? 
I would sure hate to have to download all of that content again. Maybe there's 
an app out there that will show you what content is in your apps and allow you 
to make a text listing, so that if you do have to restore and redownload, you 
could have a better time of knowing what was lost.
Thanks,
Matthew

Re: I got the Otterbox Defender case: was RE: Looking for info on the iPhone 6s plus, and a good protective case for it.

2016-03-13 Thread Matthew Bullis
I went with this Otterbox case as well, even over the Mophie battery case. I 
like that this case can be clipped either way into its belt clip, facing in or 
out. This way, you can have it on your belt and be flicking and otherwise 
interacting without needing to hold it. Also, Mophie changed their design, so 
that if you want to dock your phone into a speaker dock, you have to take it 
out through the top. The cap is no longer on the bottom. They've used a micro 
usb on the bottom, which is the way they've done it for a while. Also, if you 
get their belt clip, sold separately, the Mophie case won't fit in both ways. 
It only fits in with the back of the phone facing out, so you can't operate the 
screen in the clip.

Re: Frotz

2016-03-09 Thread Matthew Bullis
So does the browser within the app only show those games it can actually play? 
I remember playing a lot of the Tads game files years ago. I really like in 
this app that once you get into braille screen mode with Voiceover, it will not 
take you out of it after you do a two finger flick right. You can just keep 
entering commands like you can if you're using a keyboard.

Yes, using the Alex voice. I don't have any other languages in my

Subject: A strange problem with text entry on iPhone 5S.

Hello, something very strange has begun happening on my work phone, an iPhone 
5S.  This problem hasn't happened on my iPhone 6SPlus, but I thought I'd ask 
about it in case it does begin to happen.  On the lock screen, for instance, if 
I need to enter the passcode, instead of Voiceover reading the numbers like 
usual, it reads TN equals 4, TN equals 7, et cetera.  I just now composed a 
message using braille screen input, and if I type a letter, it will say TN 
equals A normal, instead of just A, but the comma will read normally.  If I use 
the keyboard on screen, it is fine.  Is there some setting I need to change?
Thanks,
Matthew

Writing hash tags with braille screen input?

2016-01-23 Thread Matthew Bullis
Hello, I'm looking into a Twitter client for my iPhone, and have mostly settled 
on Twitterific. Before I start though, I'm wondering with braille screen input, 
how you tell your device that after you've put in the number sign, or in this 
case pound sign, that after this you want to write letters? It seems to work 
fine if you type #MushroomFm, but what if you're using a hash tag that begins 
with any one of the first ten letters of the alphabet? Is there a workaround in 
the UEB code for this instance?
Thanks,
Matthew
