time since I backed up my Voice Dream reader books.

Re: Voice Dream Reader

[pegkane52]

Hi, I had mentioned in a previous message that that was the problem for me. I 
had had iCloud disabled, and I had to enable it in order for me to get Voice 
Dream to work.
Take care.

Re: Voice Dream Reader refusing to open after today's update.

Hi,I tried what you said Richard but that did not work for me no matter how many times I rebooted or went into the app, switcher and remove the app from the app switcher like I said, the only way I was able to get it to work, was to make sure all my books were backed up in the cloudand that seem to help. Thank goodness I was afraid I had lost all my books.Take care.  And that seem to help. Thank goodness I was afraid I had lost all my books.Take care.

Re: Voice Dream Reader refusing to open after today's update.

[pegkane52]

Yes, I had the same problem with Voice Dream reader today. The only way I was able to get it to respond was to upload all my books to the cloud, which I had stopped doing for a while that corrected the problem. Maybe turn off and on any downloads that you have given to the cloud and see if that helps. so I was not backing Voice Dream reader books to my phone and when I turned it on and back them up, it responded as it used to.Take care. Peggy Sent from my i phone☺️On Nov 3, 2023, at 6:41 PM, leobado1...@gmail.com wrote:Hello, I installed the update that was released today, but VDR refuses to open.

Re: IOS17.1 first impressions: language rotor missing, Notifications fixed

[pegkane52]

Richard, when I went to voiceover, there was nowhere to select rotor languages there at least not undermine in 14. Maybe I just missed it. There were many other things to select to put in the rotor, but there was no language selection at all in mine. The only way I could find it was to go in speech and select it there. Maybe if I select it there I will find it in rotor settings , I might try that.Thanks a lot.

Hi,I don’t know if this will help you, but I had a problem when I first got my iPhone 14 my case was too high and I could not reach the edge of the screen but I did not realize this until I went to an Apple store and the woman who is helping me figured it out.Take care and I hope this helps.Peggy Sent from my i phone☺️On Jul 10, 2023, at 10:48 AM, Jim Portillo  wrote:Yeah, this does have a screen protector.

You must be more careful than me with your phone, I have a very nice leather belt holster which keeps my phone nice and safe when it's in it, but I use my phone in all sorts of situations from when I am sitting on the couch or at my desk to while I am walking or working in the garden or my woodworking shop. Just this morning I went outside to the backyard while I was holding my iPhone and I misjudged the distance to the first step down from the deck and briefly lost my balance and my iPhone went flying. My deck is about 5 feet off the ground and I was holding it at railing height which is about 3 and a half feet so it had a nice 8 foot or so drop onto concrete. Fortunately it was lying on its back, but in a situation like that a good glass scren protector can totally make the difference between having a broken screen or not. I also have it in a relatively slim, but well made and drop-tested case so it did not seem to come to any harm and at least as far as I can tell there isn't a scratch on it. Glass screen protectors are quite inexpensive on Amazon so I will definitely not go without and if it ends  up not sitting perfectly on the screen any more I can simply replace it. From: viphone@googlegroups.com  On Behalf Of Richard TurnerSent: Monday, July 10, 2023 6:59 AMTo: viphone@googlegroups.comSubject: RE: iPhone not responding well to my touch gestures I have never used a screen protector because I keep my phone in a shoulder bag my wife custom made for it so it isn't banging against things in my pocket etc.Screen protectors can cause the lack of sensitivity you are describing.Richard, USA.“Reality is the leading cause of stress for those who are in touch with it.”  --  Jane Wagner from The Search for Intelligent Life in the Universe My web site: https://www.turner42.com From: viphone@googlegroups.com  On Behalf Of portillo@gmail.comSent: Monday, July 10, 2023 6:19 AMTo: viphone@googlegroups.comSubject: RE: iPhone not responding well to my touch gestures Yes sir.

in an out what it was my phone then I thought it was someone else’s phone. I 
contacted Apple Accessability when discussing another problem with them and 
they said that I should turn Wi-Fi calling on. This does seem to work and most

Hi,

Re: Super sense gets between 2 and 3 stars

[pegkane52]

Hi, I purchased Supersense, InVision AI, and have tried both. I was very 
disappointed in Supersense due to the fact that I had just purchased it for a 
full price in trying to help out the developer. When I contacted them to 
inquire if I could get a partial refund since it went on sale after I purchase 
it the question was never answered and I was never advised that I could get 
partial refund which really disappointed me since I just made the purchase.
I love solvent plus and I love voice dream scanner both are very good much 
better than InVision AI and super sense.
Take care.

Re: App for counting steps

Hi Esther,
Are you able to read the screen on the watch, or do you have to use your phone 
to use all of the functions?? I once had a small Fitbit that had no screen on 
it I really liked it but it stopped working after a time.
Any information you could give me would greatly be appreciated.
Thank you very much and take care.

 I have heard that the iPhone and other step-counting hardware adds steps 
 if one taps one’s feet or uses a keyboard. If so, how can you hope to get 
 a reasonably  accurate  step count or measurement of distance walked? I 
 would appreciate advice on whether the iPhone adds steps wen the body 
 makes movements other than walking. I would also appreciate 
 recommendations for apps or other hardware that can give an accurate step

Re: Braille display

[pegkane52]

Hi Richard,
I am running the latest software version whatever that is 14 point something 
whatever the last update was and no it just says the name of the braille 
display and you double tap on it and then it gives you all the settings the 
only other thing I could think of is that it showing up if you look in the 
board mobile app and you go under settings there are settings for Belle braille 
displays, unless they didn’t take it off my account I have tried to call them I 
have received no response for them from them as of yet. Know when that braille 
display shows up in settings
Sorry about that when I go to settings and I find braille display and it says 
the name the only thing you can do is double tap on it you can’t do anything 
else and there’s all the settings there is if I had a braille display.
It’s definitely a first for me I have never encountered this before.
Thanks for all your help.
Have a question where do you teach??

Re: Braille display

[pegkane52]

Hi Richard,
I turned off Bluetooth hit the volume up volume down and held in the power 
button and it did not take the name of the braille display out of settings when 
you get to Braille under accessibility.
If you come up with any other ideas I would appreciate it thank you so much.

 Rebooting the phone with the pressing up volume, then down volume, then 
 holding the power button until it restarts.
 
 Then, check the braille settings which when you do you will have to turn 
 on Bluetooth but see if it goes away.
 
 Next is to call Apple accessibility.

 Hi,
 At one time I had an E reader braille display and have since returned the 
 item. Now when I open up settings and go to braille it shows the title of 
 the evil year. No matter what I do, I cannot seem to get rid of this 
 title. It is no longer in my Bluetooth settings, and I have tried 
 everything that I can think of to get rid of this title but nothing I do 
 seems to work.
 If anyone has any suggestions other than resetting all my settings I would 
 really appreciate it. Also just so you know, I am using an iPhone 2020, 
 and there is there is no setting for more information when you go to 
 braille in settings.
 Thanks for any help I would really appreciate it.

Hi Richard,
Do I hold the up-and-down volumes at the same time while holding the power 
button or do I push the up volume then the down button and then hold the power

Hi Richard, it does not show up in my Bluetooth settings but I will try what 
you said I’ve already called Apple Accessability, and they were unable to help

Thanks very much.

Braille display

[pegkane52]

Hi,
At one time I had an E reader braille display and have since returned the item. 
Now when I open up settings and go to braille it shows the title of the evil 
year. No matter what I do, I cannot seem to get rid of this title. It is no 
longer in my Bluetooth settings, and I have tried everything that I can think 
of to get rid of this title but nothing I do seems to work.
If anyone has any suggestions other than resetting all my settings I would 
really appreciate it. Also just so you know, I am using an iPhone 2020, and 
there is there is no setting for more information when you go to braille in 
settings.
Thanks for any help I would really appreciate it.

Re: Bookshare experience

[pegkane52]

I love books year I love being able to get books that I have difficulty finding 
in other places.
My favorite voice at this time is James. I also love voice stream and have also 
used easy reader to get books. It’s a wonderful service even when you have to 
pay for the service.
Take care and enjoy reading.

Hi Shane,
I have sent you a few messages, not sure if you want to sorry not sure if you 
received them. I really really really like your app. The only thing I wish, is 
that I had waited until it went on sale I would’ve stayed money and still 
enjoyed the app.
I recommend it to many of my colleagues and friends.
Thank you very much.

Hi there,
I sent you a message last night, but wasn’t sure if you saw it so I thought I 
would reply again I love love love love love super sense did I say I love the 
app? The only problem I have is that I just sent for a lifetime subscription 
not realizing that your prices would be reduced it is definitely worth the 
money but I wish I had waited and could have gotten it at a lower cost.
I tell as many people as I can about the app and encourage them to try it.
Have a wonderful holiday.

On my part, sometimes it’s just because I’m lazy, and know that I can open apps 
that way if I choose. It’s a luxury of choice.

Hi,
I was told, that the reason this app is not supported by Siri, is because it is 
a Google app. Not sure if that information is correct but that’s the 
information I received.

Re: fitbit question

[pegkane52]

Hi,
When I was using a Fitbit that no longer is made, I was able to use the app 
most of the time. But as far as I know from talking with friends, even though 
the app is accessible, the watch or whatever device the person is wearing is 
not accessible. The Apple Watch, is fully accessible, not sure about other 
watches.

Thanks very much for any information.

Re: Reading from Bookshare on IPhone

[pegkane52]

Hi,
Oh I forgot about that sorry.
I love voice dream reader I was hesitant to get it because I thought I would be 
very confused trying to use it, so I started to use read to go but as time 
progressed I listen to everyone’s suggestions and downloaded voice dream reader 
and have never been happier. I still have read to go amongst all my apps, but 
never use it. Occasionally I do use dolphin easy read.

Re: Reading from Bookshare on IPhone

[pegkane52]

Hi,
As you indicated in your message, you do need a reading app to read books on 
Bookshare. Dolphin will work, voice stream will work and I believe it’s called 
read to go which is the Bookshare app but your best bet is either dolphin or 
Voice Dream voice stream is very accessible but it is not free where is dolphin 
is.
I hope this helps.

Re: AirPods Pro

[pegkane52]

Hi,
Just want to let everyone know who is interested, that QVC is having a today 
special value sale on the AirPods second generation I can’t remember the exact 
price, but I think it is around $120 and it has extra things that are included 
but since I really wasn’t interested, I didn’t pay that much attention. But you 
can check it out if you’re interested.
Thank you.

Re: Glucose meters with voiceover

It’s really funny, when I first became a type two diabetic, the doctor asked me 
would I test and I said yes he said how many times I said I don’t know maybe 
once he didn’t even think I would test it all and I find it very difficult to 
get that blood on the strip. I think somebody should come up with a better 
invention.
Take care.

Re: Native Mail app focus issues under iOS 13.2

[pegkane52]

I am having the same difficulty when trying to focus and email it keeps trying 
to bring me back to the inbox.
I am also having a problem where notifications keep repeating themselves even 
though I haven’t said to only repeat once. I have reported these issues to 
Apple Accessability also.

Re: LookTel Apps on the App Store

[pegkane52]

Yes, all of the money readers I have work as of now. I tried the IPL I think 
it’s called and it does work, but in previous downloads, it kept crashing I 
will try it if I get a new or crisper bill and see if that works.

Hello yes this is the app I downloaded I just tried re-downloading it it does 
not work it asks for access to your camera, but then it returns to the App 
Store and doesn’t perform any thing but that.
Peggy I had even tried using a dollar bill and it does not work.

Re: Voice dream scanner has been released

[pegkane52]

I think they are two different apps. Seeing not seeing AI has many more 
components to it, such as hand writing short tax documents product 
identification color identification and currency identification. Voice stream 
scanner is for reading documents it does not have all the other components, so 
they aren’t who totally different apps in that sense.

Hi, I have a series 3 Apple Watch, and it does not work either of those ways

Re: Siri shortcuts

[pegkane52]

Hi Anna apparently I have a glitch I even changed the name of whatever I called 
it on the recording to play my reading list in Voice Dream, she says she’s 
going to play it and then it sits there and does nothing or it cuts off and 
goes into another app on my phone right now it will not play the book no matter 
what I seem to do do you have any other suggestions?
Thanks again for all your help.

Hi, I am trying to create a Siri shortcut using voice dream reader. I have 
created the short cut play my book, but when I say that particular message to 
Siri, she usually does not play the book in Voice Dream meter it either sits 
and sits and sits or gives me another message such as on it or press play. I 
have created a reading list which is what I thought I was supposed to do to

Also is there a way to do this using the board

Try the blind side podcast and see if that brings it up those podcasts are

Re: Texting using Siri.

[pegkane52]

Hi, I know one I know people will correct me if I am incorrect, but I don’t 
believe that you can use all of those faces when using Siri to dictate a text 
message. I know for sure you can use :-) but I cannot remember which other ones 
can be used.
Take care.

Apple Watch newest update

[pegkane52]

Peggy Sent from my IPhone.
Hi, I have a question I don’t know if this is a bug, if I am just having a 
problem. When you read the podcast on the newest updates for the Apple Watch 
you were supposed to be able to put your finger in the middle towards the top 
of the watch and wait for a haptic and be able to flick to open notifications 
you are also supposed to be able to put your finger towards the bottom of the 
watch wait for a haptic and flip to the control center. This does not work for 
me, I am wondering if there’s a problem or if it is something I am doing wrong?
Thank you very much for all your help

Re: some apple watch questions

The last time I checked, it was $10 extra for cellular data.
Per month that is. You can take the phone or rather the watch out without 
having the phone with you if you have cellular data.
Take care.

Re: Fitbit Question

[pegkane52]

Hi,
As far as I know that is the only fit bit that is accessible.
Many of them have screens on them, but are not really accessible as far as I 
know.
It would be good to know if there are others that think other models are more 
accessible.
Take care.

Re: apple watch series 3

[pegkane52]

Hi,
The one thing that you will have to decide, is whether you want to use cellular 
data or Wi-Fi. There will be an extra charge when you purchase the watch if you 
want the cellular data. There will also be an additional charge in less your 
carrier doesn’t charge you the additional charge and I know with Verizon, that 
is a $10 a month extra charge.
Take care.

Re: Voicedream Dropbox Issue

[pegkane52]

Hi I don’t notice an issue with Dropbox but I do know that when I start playing 
a document that is in Voice Dream if I lock my screen on this using the side 
button it still continues to play but if I double tap using two fingers it does 
not cause until I tap my home button and then I can get the document to Paul 
was not sure if I’m confused or what’s going on I don’t even see a setting for 
locked screen is there somewhere to look for that setting?
Thanks very much.

 For whatever it might be worth, I cannot confirm your second bug about

 Maybe the future itself is buggy so they stopped it? I don’t know. This

Re: apple watch buy or wait?

[pegkane52]

Yes you can set the time I believe you would I would probably use Siri to set 
the time for the amount of times that I want I’ve been just doing it knowing 
the time I start and just looking at the Watch and having it tell me how much 
time has elapsed but I think you can probably set a timer I will have to try 
that the next time
I hope I’ve helped.

Re: apple watch buy or wait?

Hi, I have just received an Apple series 3 watch for my birthday. I like it 
very much. Yes you can do a workout on the stationary bike, you just have to go 
into the workout part of the watch and set the workout you can even use Siri to 
set it tell her what kind of workout you want and start and stop stop the work 
out from there.
You if you have any other questions I’ll be more than happy to answer them.

 His app is completely VoiceOver accessible. I think it might cost

Re: Setting Up FitBit using VoiceOver

[pegkane52]

Hi Marie, and anyone else who can give me some information.
If zip it that you are using does it have a watch that included on it and do 
you need your phone to use the watch as far as I know the only real excess a 
bowl product is the Apple Watch I know that there are many unlabeled or on 
usable buttons on the fit bit app in less I do not know what I’m doing which is 
quite possible.
If you have any information can you please let me know. You can contact me off 
list and I will give you my email if you’re interested.
I am currently using a fit bit flex two.
Thank you very much.

Re: Setting Up FitBit using VoiceOver

[pegkane52]

Hi, I hope this will help you.
My husband did have to help me set up my original fit bit flex two, many of the 
areas when trying to use this app are not accessible to us. I myself, will not 
buy another fit bit, I have called him several times and try to explain the 
situation to them, but many of the items have not been fixed and I am not sure 
why.
I will probably not buy another fit bit, but will try and save my money or ask 
for an Apple Watch for my birthday or Christmas.
I don’t know if this helps
I do exercise, but is more of an interested to see how it works and how it 
records my exercise I mow mostly do it for fun, but if you are more serious 
maybe the app on the iPhone for health might also help you. If you take it too 
serious, it might not be really enjoyable.
Hope this helps you.

Re: Soundscape

Hi Mark and everyone else was trying to use Soundscape,
I tried it enjoyed it quite a bit, even though I don’t do much walking I used 
it while in the car with my husband it is really fun to use.
The only question I have is how to get it to read continuously so you don’t 
have to keep flicking?
Take here.

Re: BARD Mobile bookshelf

[pegkane52]

After you go to bookshelf and double tap then you have to find audiobooks or 
whatever it is you’re trying to delete Weather it’s audio magazines audiobooks 
braille books you have to double tap on audiobooks or whatever you were trying 
to delete then you double tap on the edit button and then it will give you the 
opportunity to delete the book you have to flick up after you find the title or 
rather flip to the right after you find the title you are trying to delete and 
then top of your screen you will find the done button, and this you do it.

Re: hand writing recognition with seeing AI

[pegkane52]

Hi,
I think it’s very interesting that some blind people complain when they don’t 
get what they think they need, and yet when they get something there very 
ungrateful and continuously complain about it.
We all need to work together and figure things out and improve what we have and 
strive to find new ways to help others and do new things.

Using Siri for email

[pegkane52]

Hi,
I have called Apple access about this problem, but I’m wondering if anyone else 
is having an issue? When are you Siri to dictate an email, she reads part of 
the message and does not read the whole message. I have had my husband and 
Apple Access check, the whole message is available on the screen but is not 
able to be read out loud verbally.
I’m wondering if anyone knows work around other than dictating the message or 
the email?
Thank you very much.

Hi, I have the same problem I had downloaded a book and all of a sudden in the

Siri and email messaging

[pegkane52]

Peggy Sent from my IPhone.

Hi, I don’t know if anyone is experiencing this problem, but here’s what it is. 
I try and send an email message using Siri, she reads part of the message that 
I have tried to send but does not complete the whole message.
When I used the dictation feature, she does read the whole body of the message. 
Does anyone know if there is a workaround for this, is anyone else experiencing 
this problem?
Any help would greatly be appreciated, I have already contacted Apple Access, 
and they said that this problem has only been reported by two people.

 Hello everybody,
 
 
 Alright, I know what a calendar is.
 
 But when it comes to the iPhone, what is the difference between the 
 calendar App, and the reminders App?
 
 
 I make notes of when I have appointments coming up. But of course, 
 if I don't think to look at my notes for the week, I am likely to 
 miss something.
 
 
 So would it be best to set up a reminder? Or better to set up within 
 the calendar?
 
 
 When I used to set up medication reminders, the App would annoy me, 
 because if I shut it off, it would still show I had something overdue.
 
 
 I would appreciate thoughts on this.
 
 
 Thank you,
 
 
 Terri

Re: increasing or decreasing sppeed of voiceover

Hi, I know how to make the rotor gesture, where I was asking about, was where 
do I go to add and take away gestures that I want to put on the rotor? I know 
it is in settings, but for the life of me, I can’t remember where it is.
Thanks for the information.

Re: Update on voice dream reader

[pegkane52]

Hi, I am using an iPhone 7, and have had no problems with Voice Dream thus far 
except problems that I have created when not doing something correctly. I don’t 
know if it has something to do with the amount of books or not I don’t have 
that many books in my app so can’t really say.
This too bad you are having such problems though.

 Hello everyone, seeing as not very many people help me get a direct answer 
 to my question, but only inquired on my desire to download books, I 
 figured that I would at least be courteous, as there are people also with 
 this group facing the same problem I had. Today, as I find iTunes on a 
 computer not very accessible, my sister-in-law came over and bless her 
 heart without her I wouldn’t have my books back. We went into iTunes, and 
 copied the library from voice dream reader onto my computer. Upon doing 
 this, we then plug in my iPad which by the way, we bought back in 
 December, and very stream has not allowed us to do cloud sync correctly 
 since that time. We were able to take the books from the iTunes library, 
 that were copied onto my hard drive on my computer and then placed all of 
 them into the voice stream library on the iPad. Now finally, all of my 
 books are on my iPad with a fresh download of voice dream reader. This 
 tells me, that the latest update may be OK, however, something happened in 
 its download on my iPhone. So just letting you all know that if you think 
 you may lose your books you may want to make a back up every several 
 months of your library through iTunes. Hopefully this helps someone

Re: More problems with voice dream reader

[pegkane52]

Hi, I didn’t want to make anyone defensive either, just was offering a solution

conversation ever stops funding box year and any other things that they find 
that are useful.
Thank you.
Peggy
Sorry mystic Tatian that was congress not conversation

Re: More problems with voice dream reader

[pegkane52]

Hi, at tops, I think I have about 40 bucks in voice dream reader, I have a 
couple different apps for reading books, such as dolphin easy reader and the 
book share app, off the top of my head just name went out of my mind, but 
sometimes if I think I have too many books, I try and split them up. The name 
of that reading app for Berkshire is called read to go.

You could also try turning your rotor to punctuation, and flicking up until you 
get the desired amount desired amount of punctuation you choose. If that 
doesn't work, then you could restart.
