Voiceover and mail

['Karen Poulakos' via VIPhone]

Using the mail app that came on my SE 2022, is there a way to rearrange the
columns?  Voiceover currently reads the sender first.  I would prefer to
hear the subject first.

Any help is much appreciated.

Pill Reminder App Question

['Karen Poulakos' via VIPhone]

I just installed this app for my husband, who is a bit clueless when it
comes to his phone.
Do I need to allow notifications in order for the reminder for taking his
meds to come through?  On my phone I usually leave notifications off.
Also, is there anything I need to do to have the reminder appear on his
watch?  He rarely carries his phone, but is learning to rely on his watch.

Thanks.

Oops! RE: Accessible doorbell systems

Oops!  That should have been Home Pods, not iPods.

 

Wonder why it took so long for this message to appear?  It’s been a few days

Hi Don,

 

When asking about accessible doorbells, what do you mean by accessible? How 
accessible would you like it to be?

I also use the Ring doorbell and I have it integrated with everybody’s  iPhone 
who lives in the house plus our Echo devices. Any time anyone nears our house 
porch we receive announcements that it detected motion. If someone rings the 
doorbell we have the option to either pick it up via the Ring app on our 
iPhones or the Alexa by simply asking Alexa to answer doorbell. For those who 
can see can activate the camera on their phones and see who is at the door. 
Unfortunately, it doesn’t identify the person for me yet. I’m hoping that’s 
near in the future with the advancement of AI. But for now I love it since we 
are notified any time we have a package dropped off and if anyone is home then 
we can immediately retrieve it.

I’m not sure how it integrates with the Google Home, but with the Echo devices 
you can download, what they call a Skill with the Alexa app and as long as you 
have a Ring account establish then you can sign into the Ring Skill and 
integrate it with your Echo. It’s pretty awesome!

Hope that helps some!

RE: An Apple TV Remote Question

['Karen Poulakos' via VIPhone]

The remote came with our little Apple TV device.  I don't know the model.  The 
Accessibility rep must have had the information from when it was purchased, 
because the only thing he asked us was the color.  It's silver.

The buttons that don't work are the left and right arrows, and the Select 
buttons.  Siri is cooperative to a point, but doesn't always get us to where we 
want to be.

Hi all,

I have a strange problem with the voice over volume while talking on the phone. 
 When using the phone if I need to dial in numbers I can barely hear voiceover 
at all.  Yes, I have made sure that the voiceover volume on the rotor is at 100 
percent and it is still low.  the voices on the phone are much louder than 
Voiceover.  This doesn't happen anywhere else but on the phone.  Otherwise, the 
volumes are all fine.  Anything else I should be looking at?  Thanks much for 
any ideas.

You cannot lock the phone and have it continue reading. If you want to do that, 
that is a setting not just about VO. It is under Spoken Content under 
accessibility. I'll look it up if you need it.

Subject: Upgrading software

I've had my Orbit Reader 20 Plus for almost 2 years, and have just begun
getting comfortable with using it over the last several months.  I've never
updated the software, and decided to give it a try.  However I'm a little
intividated by the process.  I tried calling Support, hoping they would walk
me through the process, and they referred me to the manual.

I have downloaded the zip file to the desktop of my pc,  but haven't opened
the file yet.

I'm trying to decide whether it would be easier to connect my unit to the
pc, or to use the sd card method of upgrading.  My laptop does have a slot
which fits my sd card.  

If I use the pc method, the manual says to be sure the Orbit Reader is
turned off before connecting to the pc.  However, it doesn't say anything
about turning it on.  Does putting it into upgrade mode, by pressing the
panning key, dot 5, and dot 8 do that?  

Is the right panning forward button the part of the button closest to me, or
away from me?  

Also if I connect to my pc, should I remove the sd card from the Orbit
Reader before beginning this process?

Any help is appreciated.

Hi Jessica,

I am having the same problem as well. This must be a bug that will hopefully be 
fixed soon, I'm definitely going to file a report on it today via the feedback 
app. I think it was a not so smart idea of Apple to introduce the new ringtones 
during the release candidate as this did not give beta testers enough time to 
find this bug and report it and give them the opportunity to correct it before 
general release.

RE: Downloading An App From The App Store Help Please.

[Karen Poulakos]

Janet,

 

I was a bit confused by this, myself, at first.  

 

Here’s how it works for me, using the latest SE.  After I open the App Store 
app, and double tap on Search, I move my finger to the top right of the screen. 
 Just below where I hear my battery percentage, I hear “My Account”.  Just 
below that is “Games, apps, stories, and more.  Search field.  Double tap to 
edit.”  That’s where you want to enter your search.

 

At first,I skiped over where I heard “games, apps, stories, and more” not 
realizing that was the Search field.  Wonder if that could be better labeled?

Hi,

That's how I found it I searched for the developer instead of its name and 
found it that way. Now that it's back those that had it already might see it 
once again in their purchased apps. I looked on the app's page to see if there 
was contact info for its developer but alas there didn't seem to be any. So 
while i"m glad for news of its return I'm still glad to know of other options 
just in case it should disappear again for any number of reasons not the least 
of which being that one day it might not be compatible with an iOS update. 
Still I'm glad to have it back in my toolbox of available tools for now.

RE: light detector

[Karen Poulakos]

I didn’t realize until today that Seeing AI has a Light Dectector.  That’s good 
to know.  However I have the app called Light Detector, which I think may be 
the same one Regina mentioned.  I really like that app, and use it often.  It’s 
so easy!  You just tap the app, and it starts working right away when it opens. 
 No menus to deal with.

Hi, I really think it’s sad that seeing AI ditched the Light Detector. However, 
I found an app called Light Detector. It works very well. You just open it and 
it starts the highest loudest sound is that the light is on and then when you 
turn it off, it goes down to a low level of sound. That’s all that the app 
does. It’s called light detector. Hope that helps. On

Hi Gradimir,

 

It looks like Seeing Assistant Home has had quite a bit of good development 
since I first tried it several years ago.

 

I do have a question.  It took a lot of digging through the tutorial to find 
the below section concerning the limitations of the light version which I 
copied from the tutorial.

My question is, and I guess it is two questions, What is the cost of the 
non-light version and how does one find that version?

I found nothing about in-app purchases in the app store or in the app.

 

 


Limitations of LITE version


LITE version of Seeing Assistant Home has several limitations, such as: 

*   Lack of Dropbox support,
*   Only 5 codes can be created,
*   Only 10 characters can be embedded in QR code,
*   Lack of voice commands,
*   Magnifying glass and Light Detector can be used only 1 minute every day.


Warnings and disclaimer


Seeing Assistant Home uses internet connection to work. If you are not 
connected to WiFi network or do not have internet plan data transfer might 
result in additional costs. Transition Technologies is not responsible for any 
loss or additional costs resulting when using Seeing Assistant Home.

RE: CVS Pharmacy Spoken Rx for iOS and Android

[Karen Poulakos]

Margaret,

You can use the CVS app on your phone without registering.  Open the app, swipe 
until you hear "Pharmacy," tap on that.  Then swipe until you hear Spoken RX 
Registered.  Tap on that, and you'll hear "ready to scan".  Just hold your 
prescription near the screen of your phone.  You should hear a tone to let you 
know it has recognized the information on the tag.  

When using the device provided by CVS, rotate the switch on the right side of 
the unit to turn it on.  You should hear a couple of beeps, then "Spoken RX 
ready."  I just set my prescription on the top of the device, and press the 
center button (the oval shaped one, with a raised dot on it) and you'll heara 
beep, another brief noise, and then you should hear "Patient Name" and your 
name, and the information about your prescription.  If you're not hearing 
anything at all, you might check the batteries in your unit. 

We have had a few instances where the tag wasn't validated properly, and 
wouldn't scan.  This was a case where the pharmacy staff wasn't properly 
trained in how to create the tags.

Calls on Speaker

[Karen Poulakos]

Hi,

I need to set my husband's phone so that when he answers it, it is on the
speaker.  I did it on mine, but it has been so long that I can't remember
where to make the change.  Can someone please help.  The phone is the latest
SE.  It doesn't even seem to go to the speaker when he pulls it away from
his ear.

Thanks.

RE: Spoken RX Update

[Karen Poulakos]

I just tried it with the 1 prescription that worked with the reader device, and 
it also worked with the phone.  

Open the CVS app, select Pharmacy, That takes you to a sign in page.  You don't 
really need to sign in to use SpokenRX.  Just swipe several times until you 
hear SpokenRX.  Tap on that.  Then just hold your prescription bottle, with the 
little round tag on the bottom of the bottle over your phone screen near the 
camera, and you should hear a beep.  It doesn't seem to read until you touch 
the portion of the screen where the information is located.  Mine responded 
pretty quickly as I moved the bottle over the phone screen.

RE: CVS Pharmacy Spoken Rx for iOS and Android

[Karen Poulakos]

I requested the Spoken RX labels be put on both mine and my husband's 
prescriptions, from CVS last month.  They did put the labels on our 
medications, however, I couldn't get them to work with the phone app.  We are 
currently waiting for a reader, which should be here this week.

A visit to the pharmacy yesterday got me wondering if they've been applying the 
correct labels.  They had a Pharmacist filling in from another town.  He was 
familiar with Spoken RX, but being new to that store, was unable to locate the 
correct label to attach to the prescription.  I figured I'd just take the 
bottle with me when I pick up the reader, and have them attach the correct 
label, and they can show me how to use the device.

I'll let you all know how it goes once I have the reader.

Subject: RE: CVS Pharmacy Spoken Rx for iOS and Android

Hello Everyone,

Question:  Has anyone got the CVS Spoken Rx feature working?

The day after I posted the podcast transcription to the group, I went to my 
favorite local CVS pharmacy and informed the head pharmacist that I wanted to 
be enrolled in the Spoken Rx program.

He told me that he had attended the training sessions on this and that he would 
enroll me in the program.  I was heartened to learn that two other CVS 
customers had also recently made such a request.

A couple of days later, I received an SMS that my prescription starting with 
the letter "S" was ready for pickup.  This baffled me as SMS notifications 
always include the first 3 letters of a medication name, not just one.

When I arrived at the store, I was told that the Spoken Rx reader had arrived 
and was ready for pickup.  

This surprised me as my pharmacist and I had already discussed the fact that I 
would be using my iPhone to read the prescriptions.  Be that as it may, given 
that it would cause a bit of a pain for him to return the reader,  I accepted 
the reader.

Now, at this point both he and I are under the impression that he is to receive 
some kind of tags that he and his team can affix to my meds in order that 
either the CVS app or the dedicated reader can voice.

Is this correct?

He is still waiting on some feedback from his regional manager as to how to 
proceed.

As for me, I am just wondering if an actual special tag is required in order to 
hear the medication info.

One thing I learned from my pharmacist, and had confirmed by a pharmacist at a 
neighboring location, is that not everything CVS advertises is as accurate as 
the CVS public relations department would have you believe.

So, any feedback you can contribute as to your CVS Spoken Rx experience, thus 
far, would be greatly appreciated.

Mark

Just FYI, if  you have a Bluetooth keyboard connected to your phone you can 
enter your PIN on it and using the numbers row on a keyboard or a NumPad if you 
have something like a Logitech K780 should be a lot easier and successful than 
trying to tap the right numbers on the touchscreen without feedback.

Alternatively if you have handwriting added to your rotor and know how to enter 
handwriting you can enter your PIN this way, but again it's probably hit and 
miss without feedback. I just tried it for the first time in a long time and 
for some reason when I turn the rotor to the right which does bring up 
handwriting on the lock screen it defaults to lower case and I have to swipe 
down twice with 3 fingers to get to numbers, then I can write my PIN numbers on 
the screen and the phone unlocks.

I will write to Apple Accessibility because I think by default if you have a 
number field only like with the PIN entry field it would be nice if once you 
turned the rotor to handwriting it would automatically default to numbers entry.

Subject: RE: Another Phone That Won't Talk After Reboot

 

I had this same thing happen with both my 12 Mini and 13 Mini Friday night, but 
I haven�t had the problem with either phone since. I�m using the default 
Samantha voice, and I had no problems when upgrading to iOS 16.

 

With the 13 Mini, I had turned the phone off to get rid of that one unread 
message badge I often get now when I receive a text message on one of my phones 
and delete it right after reading. Since I have text message forwarding set up 
on both of my phones, the phone on which I don�t read the text shows that badge 
until I either recover the message I have deleted on the other phone or until I 
reboot that phone on which I haven�t read the message.

 

Anyway, after turning that iPhone 13 Mini back on, VoiceOver did not speak or 
make any sounds, and nothing I did from trying to talk to Siri, using 
headphones, turning up the volume button, doing the triple click of the side 
button or force restarting the phone would bring back the speech. I finally got 
my 12 Mini to read the screen with Seeing AI, and after pressing the side 
button to get it where it needed to be, it finally read the slide to unlock or 
whatever it says, and I lucked into getting the phone into the correct position 
with the slide I did, and then I miraculously entered the passcode correctly 
and VoiceOver started talking once again. Before getting to this point, though, 
I had had enough unsuccessful attempts at entering that passcode to where I had 
to wait the fifteen minutes before I got the opportunity that actually let me 
unlock the phone and restore VoiceOver.

 

As for my 12 Mini, while I had turned it off for the same reason as the 13 
Mini, meaning another text message badge I wanted to get rid of as I had 
permanently deleted a message on the 13 Mini and thus couldn�t recover it on 
the 12 Mini to get rid of that badge, I wasn�t nearly as fortunate with 
recovering VoiceOver. For, even though I practiced positioning my fingers on 
the 13 Mini so I would be ready when I could get the 12 Mini to that unlock 
position, I somehow managed to enter the incorrect passcode every time, 
figuring this since VoiceOver never did start talking.

 

I let this go on for my opportunity to enter the passcode after an hour, but 
when that attempt failed and the screen read that my 12 Mini would now be 
disabled for three hours, I decided to try other things. I couldn�t connect the 
phone to the computer and try to see if I could bring up the accessibility 
settings in iTunes because I had turned off the USB accessories setting that 
would�ve let USB accessories connect after the phone had been locked for an 
hour. I couldn�t turn the phone off as I normally do by pressing the volume up, 
then the volume down, and then pressing the

I've considered that myself.  However, I've had times, especially in the

Subject: Can I Use Touch ID Instead of Pass Code

Good Evening:

The recent Face ID hit or miss thread caught my interest since, like the 
original poster, I have an iPhone SE 2020 and like Touch ID.

The SE2020 is my first smart phone and is my back up  with my land line 
being my primary phone.  I have the cell powered off most of the time 
and might power it on for texting or to check the weather app etc.  I 
have Apple ID, Touch ID, and Pass Code set up and have purchased an app 
on the App Store.  The way things are set up, I have to type in my pass 
code when I power up.  I can usually do it correctly the first or second 
time so typing it isn't the problem; I'd prefer to use Touch Id instead 
if possible.  I am not in a work or school situation and my house does 
not resemble Grand Central Station and I do not have a lot of personal 
information on the cell.

The original post did say locked and not powered off.  When I first got 
the cell and was trying to follow along with a tutorial, the phone kept 
saying locked what sounded every 30 seconds and locked became a "dirty" 
word and I never investigated what it was good for.  I turned lock to 
never.  I'm using the phone a little more now and would be willing to 
change that if someone could explain why it would be good when I use the 
phone so little.  I'd greatly appreciate knowing if I can keep the pass 
code for when I needed it for other things and could use Touch ID when 
powering on.
  Thanks,

Margaret

Hi all,

work two or three times and then will require me to use my pass code to

finger than to pick up my mini and hope I can get it to unlock without 
having to type in my pass code. Any suggestions would be appreciated. 
Thanks for reading.

RE: thoughts on SE3

[Karen Poulakos]

I get about 2 days.  But I’m not on my phone all the time.  We have a land 
line, so I use that for calls when at home.  I prefer to use my laptop for the 
Internet.

 

My iPhone is used for listening to an occasional podcast, reading an occasional 
book, checking weather, banking, occasionally reading a product label, etc.  We 
haven’t traveled since getting this phone, so I don’t know how much the maps 
would drain the battery.

 

Battery life is going to depend on how, and how much you use your phone.

I have the IPhone SE 2020!

I want to upgrade later this year to the SE 2022 model.

Is there much of a difference between the SE 2020 and the SE 2022?

Does the SE 2022 still have a home button?

I want a phone with the home button, my main reason for sticking with the Se 
model.

RE: iPhone SE.

[Karen Poulakos]

It’s really hard for me to tell whether the Home button is actually moving or 
not.  I’ve heard that it doesn’t.  When I put pressure on it, I feel what feels 
more like a slight knock, or a single vibration, in the phone itself, rather 
than under my finger.  It’s a different response than with my first generation 
SE.  Hard to describe.

 

Ok, I just pulled out my old phone.  That button moves much more than what I am 
feeling with my new phone.  There was also a slight clicking sound from the 
button on my old SE.  I don’t think the button on the SE2022 is moving.

 

The functionality of these devices is totally amazing to me.  Guess that’s 
because I remember when phones were wired into our homes.  When I was young, 
back in the 50’s, we even had a Party line.  For you younger people, that was a 
line shared between 2 or more families, who may not even live next to each 
other.  If you picked up the receiver and heard someone talking, you would have 
to hang up and wait till they were finished before making your call.  Back then 
we only had to dial 5 digits to make a local call, until they added new 
prefixes, then it was 7 digits.  And the first 2 digits were indicated by 
letters of the alphabet, rather than numbers. 

 

Those were the days. . .

Apple had some good reasons for abandonning the home button. They ware out over 
time. Also, not having a home button improves water resistance. One way to feel 
the results of the gestures which replace the home button for VoiceOver usders 
is to go into VoiceOver audio settings and set the haptics to a higher percent. 
This makes those indicator bumps easier to feel. Personally, even without 
taking that step, I've never had a problem feeling the bumps even when I can't 
hear the sounds. I don't miss the home button at all.

RE: iPhone SE.

[Karen Poulakos]

Curtis,

I got the new SE a couple of weeks ago, and am very happy with it.  I chose it 
because I'm not ready to give up the home button just yet.  The home button 
does have a different feel.  When you put your finger on the screen, you feel a 
round spot at the bottom of the screen, which feels like you would expect the 
home button to feel, however They say it isn't an actual button.  When you put 
pressure on it, it doesn't move, but you do feel the response of the phone as a 
single vibration in the phone itself, rather than under your finger.  , The 
intensity of the response is adjustable in the Settings menu.   

You can tell your friend that it does handle fingerprints just like the older 
phones.

Good Day

I intend getting a SE 2022 but previously I struggled to do a transfer of apps 
and data from the old phone. I could not succeed in holding the new phone over 
the circle or whatever on the old phone’s screen. Did you manage this without 
sighted help and if so, what exactly did you do?

Recently got a new iPhone SE2022.  Everything went fine with the wireless

set up.  everything, including my settings transferred correctly.  So I'm

really happy with it.

 

There is one strange thing happening that I can't figure out.  I have

haptics turned off, and the home button sensitivity set to 3.  Occasionally,

when I move my finger around the screen, or press on the Home button, I hear

a  light swish sound, similar to the one you hear when sending an email or

text.  It's so inconsistant, and infrequent, that I can't figure out what

I'm doing that is causing it.

 

Has anyone else experienced this?

Problem resolved - Here's how -RE: Touch Typing Problem

Someone emailed me privately, and suggested I go to Settings, General, 
Keyboard, and then turn off Predictive Typing.  That did the trick!

 

While I was there I turned off a few additional items.

Triple Tap Home

[Karen Poulakos]

I had to reset my 1st generation SE yesterday, with the help of Apple
Accessibility.  I discovered today that the triple tap of the Home button no
longer turns VoiceOver off and on.  Fortunately I was able to do it with the
help of Siri.

Would someone please tell me where to locate that setting?  I know I've seen
it, but can't seem to locate it now that I need it.

Thanks.

Subject: For Karen and others, Orbit Reader and Editing using the buffer

 

Karen,

Another method you could use is the buffer Edit Mode.

It allows you to buffer your text on the Orbit itself, so the arrow keys work 
as normal arrow keys to navigate the text you have written.

 

While connected to your iPhone, get n the body of the message, or whatever edit 
box it is, then press select+down arrow.  You will read, buffer edit mode on 
the display.

Now, everything you write until you press dot 8 will only be on the Orbit in a 
buffer that you can edit at will.

 

Once you are satisfied, press dot 8 and it will send it to the Orbit.

VoiceOver will speak each word, slowly, as it receives the text.  But this is a 
more sure fired way of insuring that you get your text prepared without 
mistakes then send it into the edit field on the iPhone.

 

HTH,

 

Richard

RE: Orbit Reader and editing

[Karen Poulakos]

Oops, I thought you were referring to the rotor on the phone.  I still have a 
lot to learn about the Orbit Reader. (smile)

I'm not sure of the distinction you are making.

If you are doing space+dot3 with the rotor on words, are you not using the 
Orbit to move the cursor?

If you are using any keyboard, qwerty or braille, the only way to move the 
cursor is with VoiceOver commands using the keyboard.

I don�t think just using the arrow keys works when connected to the iPhone.

Perhaps it should.  

A new build for the firmware is going into beta testing next week for the Orbit 
Reader 20 plus.  This would be a good time to request any changes to the 
current functionality.

You can use the move by word, then character, to get to the problem.  Use the 
rotor commands, space+dots2,3 turn rotor counterclockwise. Space+dots5,6, turns 
the rotor clockwise. space+dot3 moves by whatever rotor choice to the left, and 
space+6 goes to the right. So, using word and character on the rotor will get 
You to the spot.
Of  course the lines option helps too when needing to move farther.

I finally decided that I was getting really confused by the files that came on

tells me I have 3 drafts in progress.  When I tap on the button that follows

I managed to get it to stop saying “Double tap to open” on the Home Page.  

 

I can’t seem to locate an option for the Status Bar.  I want to stop VO from 
saying “Not Charging, when checking the battery status.  I only want to know 
for sure that it is charging when I plug it in.

Getting  rid of the words “Status bar item would be nice, too.”

In settings, just go to accessibility / Voice Over, then swipe down to Speech 
and double tap.

In there, swipe to pronunciation, and double tap.

This screen will contain a list of any pronunciation changes you have 
previously made, and any new ones will be added to this list.

To make a new change, just double tap the add button. The screen that comes up 
is where you enter the current word or phrase, and the new way you want it 
pronounced.

When done, just double tap on the back button to go back to the list of changes 
and your new change will be part of the list.

 

Hope this helps.

now when swiping across the status bar it says cellular 2 bars.

I also didn’t want Status bar item spoken so I did this

In the first box I put

 Replacement just put in a space.

RE: the power of Voiceover dictionary

[Karen Poulakos]

This is interesting.  Where did you find the dictionary in order to do this?  I 
looked in the Voiceover settings, and couldn’t find any listing for a 
dictionary. 

 

Can you please describe the steps you used?

 

Thanks.

Subject: the power of Voiceover dictionary

 

I was talking to a friend Stephen Giggar some of you might remember him from 
the talks days.  He said you might be able to customize what voice over does 
and doesn't speak.   I'm posting this example to show what can be done with the 
Voiceover dictionary.

On the Status bar it says cellular 3 of 3 bars signal strength I wanted to 
change this so I did this:

Put in  in the phrase box

 

of 4 bars  signal strength  

Replacement bars 

now when swiping across the status bar it says cellular 2 bars.

I also didn’t want Status bar item spoken so I did this

In the first box I put 

Status bar item 

 Replacement just put in a space.

My solution- RE: How can I answer the phone with gloves on?

[Karen Poulakos]

I solved this problem by using fingerless gloves or mittens.  They are 
available in a fariety of styles.  You can find them with finger tips exposed, 
or with flaps that go over the fingers when you’re wanting them covered.  I 
made mine as mittens so that they are long enough to cover the fingertips, but 
the end is open just enough that I can slip them pack to expose the fingertips 
as needed.

Voice Amplifier or Megaphone app

[Karen Poulakos]

I have kind of an unusual request.  My husband was recently diagnosed with
paralyzed vocal cords, which has him speaking at barely above a whisper.  It
would be really nice if we could use the iPhone to amplify his voice so I
can hear him in places where there is lots of background noise.

Does anyone know of an app that would use bothe phone speakers and
microphone for this purpose?

Thanks.

Apple TV

[Karen Poulakos]

I know there have been lots of messages on this topic in the past.  However,
I didn't really pay attention to them because I wasn't needing the
information.

We currently have a Roku, and are thinking about changing to Apple TV.  I
have to admit that I never concerned myself with accessibility, and just let
my husband control the remote, since we seemed to enjoy much of the same
programing.

For those of you who have had experience with both; Which do you prefer, and
why?

Would the Apple TV be as accessible as other Apple devices?

Thanks.

FW: In need of assistance

[Karen Poulakos]

Hi,

 

I sent this message last night, but for some reason got a message saying that 
it didn’t go through.  So am trying again.

Sent: Sunday, May 2, 2021 7:45 PM

Subject: RE: In need of assistance

 

Hi Kait,

 

Once you have turned VoiceOver on, you might just have her explore the home 
screen by sliding her finger around the screen.  Help her to recognize that the 
apps are arranged in columns on the screen. She can activate an app by just 
sliding her finger until she hears the name of the app she wants to open, then 
tapping the screen twice.

 

She can also activate an app by asking Siri to open it.  I’m still using the 
older model SE phone, and am not sure how Siri is accessed on the newer phone. 

 

If you can set up her contacts for her, she can place a phone call by asking 
Siri to call the name in her contacts ( like: “call Kait”).  She can also open 
Contacts in the Phone app, and locate the name of the person she wants to call, 
tap it to open the contact, and after locating the phone number on the screen 
can call it.

 

The iPhone is pretty amazing!  There are so many helpful apps that will aid her 
in becoming more independent.  If you stay with this group, we can make 
suggestions as you are ready for them.  There are apps that help with 
identifying currency and , color.  There are apps that enable scanning of text 
on documents, and food packaging, etc.  The list goes on.

 

You could have her start by examining the Weather app.  I check that one every 
day.  Any apps that she may not need can be moved to another page where they 
will be out of her way, to make things less confusing.

 

You can make adjustments to Voiceover in Settings, under Accessibility.  There 
are several options there.  

 

Don’t hesitate to ask questions.

 

Karen P

okay everyone,  Wow, I  am grateful for this support to help me with my Grands 
phone.  I need to learn as much as she does as I am the one that will be 
introducing all this to her.  She is not receptive to any of this.  Let's just 
say the fight is on.  She sees light and that is it, some shadow but  nothing 
more.  She has had a flip phone but can not use it.  I bought this and then 
realized I too needed assistance in order to help her.  I know that I will not 
be able to dump this on her all at once.Gran is having a hard time with what 
has been dealt to her and I want to make sure I do not overwhelm her at this 
point but do however want to introduce things just one step at a time. If I try 
to push I am afraid she will shut down.   I truly believe in time she will see 
that this will be of benefit.  It is just her and I here and I work outside the 
home. I tried to set this phone up for her but soon realized I know nothing.  I 
need to step up to the plate for her as she was for me in my life.  I also Know 
I am asking a lot from all of you here but if you could see your way clear to 
assisting me , I would be forever grateful.  Let me tell you what I would like 
to start with if I may?  The,hey Siri would be helpful to start with getting 
her to know she can use it for emergency calls or to call me when I am away.  
If she starts with this will she be able to keep the speaker on without any 
additional voice commands or the need to do anything else.  I know this sounds 
probably like an idiot mode kind of thing but I know her well enough that that 
is enough.  I have my number in the phone and I do believe if she calls for 9 1 
1 using hey siri there would be no problem.  this being said am I on the right 
track?  and if so what would or could I do next to show her there is more and 
to build her confidence?  It is all kindergarten stuff I know but I assure you 
this is how it must be done.  I do hope you all understand?  I thank you very 
much for your kindness, support and consideration.  Kait

Yes.  I tune each string.  The app tells me whether the string is flat or

tuned often.  So, I have my old iPhone 5S, which I keep charged near my harp

RE: guitar tuner apps

[Karen Poulakos]

I agree.  Talking Tuner is the best one I've found.  I use it to tune a 44 
string harp.

I'd recommend talking tuner.  It only costs a buck, but does work
pretty well.  It uses your phone mike and tells if your note is sharp
or flat.

RE: keeping e-mail on my pc and looking at it on an I device

[Karen Poulakos]

I prefer to read me email on my laptop, and save any important messages there.  
So,for those occasions when I do have to read email on my phone, I have my 
iPhone set to not delete from the server, and my laptop set to delete from the 
server.

 

With the laptop set to delete from the server the messages do not reappear on 
my phone.

Actually I seem to be having problems with my email account. I notice after I 
have read and deleted my emails using the Mail app on my Mac, I would have to 
go onto the hotmail site and delete my messages from there. Otherwise on my 
mail app on iPhone, my emails still appear and unread.

If your email on the phone is set as iMap, it will not remove them from the 
server unless you set it to remove from server when you delete it on your phone.

Easy answer, do your deleting on the computer.

If your phone is set to use Pop3, you can go into the settings and tell it to 
leave messages on the server.

A Phone Technology question unrelated to the iPhone

[Karen Poulakos]

I have a question related to accessible phone technology, but not the
iPhone.  If someone can answer it or direct me to the correct group off
line, that would be much appreciated.

I would like to replace the cordless phones that we use with our land line.
Does anyone know of a phone which includes a talking menu for accessing call
logs, entering contacts, etc?  The one I currently have has talking caller
ID.  However, the menu is not accessible.

Thanks.

Timer sounds -RE: New Echo

[Karen Poulakos]

Deirdre,

You can change the timer sounds in the Clock ap.

I discovered it when looking for a way to stop music after 1 hour at bedtime.  
Among the sound options I discovered a "stop playing" setting, which works 
really well.

However it also presents a problem when you want to use a timer, because you 
would have to go in and change it.  I solved that by asking Siri to set an 
alarm when I need to time cooking, etc.  You can ask Siri to set an alarm for a 
specific time, or for as many minutes as you need.

Oh, Joshua, that�s too bad. Kind of defeats the purpose of being in the kitchen 
cooking and needing to   pause the playing for whatever reason without having 
to touchthe phone with messy fingers! Sound coming from the speaker though it�s 
definitely superior to that of my phone if it�s not hooked up to my stereo.
My echo just started making a funny noise and I couldn�t figure out what it was 
about. Then I remembered I said a timer. It�s a noise I never would�ve 
associated with a timer since it�s not any kind of noise I�ve ever heard on my 
iPhone. I wonder if I can reset the sound to something else. These are the 
questions I have. I looked in Settings a few days ago at the sounds heading and 
didn�t see any way to set anything specific. Have I missed something? I guess I 
could address this to the other list which I subscribe to by Brad�s 
recommendation. I think I associate these questions with the accessibility 
capacity  since it�s an app on my phone which is why I continue to ask 
questions here. Plus I never got a response to my first post to the other list! 
I�ll try again.

What is Static Text?

[Karen Poulakos]

I was going through the rotor settings to remove a couple of things, and saw
that Static Text is selected in my rotor settings..  What is Static Text,
and how is it affected by that setting?

Thanks,

them?

What I was asking about is the oven which also serves as an air fryer.

Karen, you asked if anyone has experience with the Cosori air fryer in response 
to a thread all from people who use the Cosori air fryer, so I’m a bit confused 
what you are asking.

Hey Jenny,

If you have an echo or dot and you have it connected to the air fryer, you can 
tell it to resume the air fryer after you have the recipe programmed in and 
even though you haven't started it yet, it will start the fryer.  We have 
Highmarks just below all of the buttons, but we rarely use them.  I love that 
air fryer.

Hi Richard,

 

Wow, I actually have one of these air fryers myself, having just purchased it 
within the past couple of weeks, and I still loved your review. LOL I’ll just 
say that my family and I use ours pretty much every day. We have cooked a wide 
variety of things in it so far, cinnamon rolls, biscuits, pork chops, chicken 
tenders and nuggets, several types of fish, pizza rolls, etc. We have also 
reheated several things such as leftover pizza and even shepherds pie. I did 
put a tactile dot on the start/stop button, because apparently even if you try 
to start cooking through the app, which is pretty well accessible by the way, 
it still requires a press of the Start button on the touch screen. But for the 
most part, I use Alexa for most functions. I loved your whole chicken recipe 
though, and am tempted to try it myself. LOL I am also curious about how steak 
would turn out, but I digress. :-)

It did not take 10 minutes to cool.

You are then ready to cook your first dish.  we decided to cook bacon.

Note, I let my wife put the bacon in the hot pan as I haven't gotten my 
silicone gloves yet.

We use thick sliced apple wood smoked Hempler bacon.

You preheat it to 320 degrees for five minutes.

Remove the basket and place the bacon in the basket with at least 1/4 inch of 
space between the pieces.  6 slices fit with 5 left-to-right and one vertical.

There is a bacon preset that cooks for 6 minutes at 320 degrees, we ended up 
doing 8 minutes which had it done, but not burnt, and there was very little 
grease.

(interesting factoid: bacon fat’s smoking temperature is 374 degrees.  So 
keeping it at a lower temperature reduces the smoke.)

We are hooked.  Tonight, we did a whole roasted chicken.

It does not have a rotisserie attachment, so you cook it in the basket and flip 
it half way through.

It says a 5 to 6 pound chicken will take one hour at 320 degrees.

 Our chicken was a little over 5 pounds.

I used a herb and brown sugar dry-brined that is from the Once Upon A chef web 
site that was designed for a 12-14 pound turkey.  I cut the recipe in half.

Is there a phone  app that can control the Cosori oven without having to use

A sighted friend told me she thought I could control it just by marking the

I don’t have to.

Editing in Recorder HQ

[Karen Poulakos]

Has anyone edited their recordings with this ap?  All I want to do is trim a
couple of seconds off the beginning and the end of the recording.

If someone could give me some step by step instructions as to how to do
this, I would really appreciate it.

I tried setting the start position to zero, and want to set the end position
at 3 seconds, to get rid of that part.  However I couldn't figure out how to
set the end position.

Question:  Do I want to set the start position for what I want to keep,  or
for what I want to delete?

If anyone knows of an extremely simple editing app that works on a pc rather
than the phone, that might be even easier.

Thanks.

Creating Playlists in the Music App

[Karen Poulakos]

I sent this message a couple of days ago, with no response.  I was sure someone 
in this group would have experience with this, so thought I'd try again, in 
case it wasn't seen.
  
I was playing around with creating a playlist in the music app, for the
first time. I got several songs moved to the playlist, and thought I
had titled it, only to find out that it seems to be titled "Untitled
playlist.  I can't seem to figure out how to change the title.

Also, once the playlist is created, how can I add additional songs to it?

Thanks.

Question about playlists

[Karen Poulakos]

I was playing around with creating a playlist in the music app, for the
first time. I got several songs moved to the playlist, and thought I
had titled it, only to find out that it seems to be titled "Untitled
playlist.  I can't seem to figure out how to change the title.

Also, once the playlist is created, how can I add additional songs to it?

Thanks.

Time - RE: IOS 13.6 question

[Karen Poulakos]

I have an older SE, which I purchased last year.  Before doing the latest 
update,it was not reading the time when I press the home button.  Since I 
updated this morning, it is now telling me the time when the Home button is 
pressed to unlock the screen.

I guess it depends on what phone you have and what IOS. I have the 6S+ with 
IOS 13.5.1 as well and I can use the power button and the home button and 
both tell the time when they are used.

>From the main Menu, I tap Voice, which brings up the call log.  Is there a
way to delete the calls from the call log? 

Thanks.

Problem Solvved - RE: Recorder Hq Question

[Karen Poulakos]

In case anyone is considering using this app, I thought I'd let you know that 
they have really simplified the download process for wifi transfers.

Once you tap on wifi transfer on your phone, and open the window on your 
computer, it's as easy as placing the focus on the file you want to download, 
shown on your computer screen.  Then press the space bar, and it magicly 
appears in your computer's downloads folder.

It was so simple that I totally missed it.

Subject: Recorder Hq Question

I'm hoping someone has experience with this app.  

When I first started using it, the wifi transfer was so easy.  However they
changed something awhile back, and I can't figure out how to do the
transfer.  I managed to email myself a couple of recordings.  But I have one
that is too large to email.

Here are the steps I followed:
1.   Tapped the wifi transfer button on my phone:
2.   Entered the wifi address into the browser on my laptop, which
brought up the file list from my phone.
This is where my problem began.  There used to be a download button below
each item.  It is no longer there.  I can't figure out how to proceed from
there.

The solution must be very simple, but I can't figure it out.  Any help would
be much appreciated.

Thanks.

Recorder HQ Question

[Karen Poulakos]

I've had pretty good success with this app until now.  Last night when I
tried to transfer some files from my phone, using wifi, I was unable to
transfer them.  

It used to be that when reading the files screen on my laptop, I could place
the curser on the file, bring up the context menu, and press enter on  "save
target as".  The "save target as" option no longer shows up in the context
menu.  Am I missing something?

Thanks.

RE: Go To Meeting

[Karen Poulakos]

Thanks.  They offer a convenient dial in number, so I can just use my phone, 
and participate that way.

Hi Karen,

I cannot speak to the phone about go to meeting, but the computer version is 
not accessible. The only thing that I could do was enter the meeting. If I 
wanted to leave a comment or do anything else, I could not do so. The only 
thing I could do a sex with the program. I tried this with Johnson NVDA and 
when I tapped around the arrow, blank lines were spoken. I would suggest not 
bothering with the computer version of go to meeting.
