Re: blood pressure, was, RE: Brief summary of the apple Event, no new iPhone announced

[Lois Butterfield]

Well Simon, they said it does. I listened to the presentation. It does a great 
job with heartrate, so I am looking forward to it. It obviously won’t be as 
good as having it done at a clinic, but there are none nearby that do it, so 
I’m excited.

Take care,
Lois

Re: blood pressure, was, RE: Brief summary of the apple Event, no new iPhone announced

[Lois Butterfield]

Yes, I did the same research and found the same answers. I will get the new 
watch just for the VO 2 Max reading. I’ve always been interested in that.

Re: fitbit question

Hi all,

I was able to use the Seeing AI app to read the code on my new FitBit device to 
set it up. Pretty cool to be able to do it without assistance.

Re: Amazon Kindle books

[Lois Butterfield]

Hi,

I’m not sure about JAWS since I no longer use a PC. Kindle will be easy with 
practice. To continuously read, use a 2-finger swipe down.

what drives me nuts with Kindle is that your screen is always unlocked, so you 
can’t have your phone in a pocket. You have to be careful not to touch it. The 
other way you can read Kindle books is with Alexa if you have one. She will 
read from wherever you stopped on any device.

Good luck,
Lois

Re: Door dash

[Lois Butterfield]

OK, I figured it out. It is the restaurant that is acting differently. 
Apparently, it’s no longer part of it or something. Glad there’s nothing wrong 
with the app, because I liked it. Thanks all for your responses.

Take care,
Lois

Re: Door dash

[Lois Butterfield]

So, I opened the app and went to the restaurant I wanted. I found the food, and 
there was an add to order button on the bottom right. There was no add to cart 
or any cart that I saw. If I went back, it just took me out from the restaurant 
I wanted. My husband didn’t see anything helpful either. I just don’t know what 
I’m missing.

I hate to ask for step-by-step instructions, but I think that’s what I need.

Thanks,
Lois

Door dash

[Lois Butterfield]

Hi all,

Is the door dash app broken? I have used it in the past without problems, but I 
couldn’t figure it out today.

I found the add to order button but couldn’t figure out how to get the order 
placed. If there is a way to do it, I plan to order dinner tomorrow.

Thanks for any ideas.

Take care,
Lois

Re: wish list in the audible app

Hi again Rebecca,
I feel so silly. I went into the app and could not find my wish list. I swear 
it was in the profile before but it is not there now. I’m so sorry to steer you 
wrong. I’ll be checking and will let you know if I find it.

So sorry,

Re: Siri Not Speaking

Try a three finger double tap. Maybe you turn speech off by mistake when you 
grabbed your phone. I doubt if Siri would stop talking over that.

Re: AirPods Pro Volume Issue

[Lois Butterfield]

Someone posted a while back that if you have noise activation on, people will 
have trouble hearing you. I can’t remember what it’s called right now. Anyway, 
it blocks out everything but what you’re hearing through your earphones. If you 
change that, people should be able to hear you.

Take care,

Re: Anyone else having volume issues with Amazon Music app?

[Lois Butterfield]

Yes, I am having the same problem. It seems to be just coming through the ear 
piece, as if on a phone call.

Thanks for bringing it up. I always forget to mention it when I try to use 
amazon music.

Take care,
Lois

 Like that friend of mine that encounters the fade-in speech bug or the

 If one is using the native mail app constantly there is no way to rule the

 Hi everybody;
 I have been using Apple products and it’s accompanying software for the

 I’ve always worked around Boggs.
 Nothing is perfect.
 That’s a fact of life and software.
 I believe everyone will be much happier if they learnto work around the

 If you encounter a bug just report them to Apple Accessibility.
 Hope this helps

Re: battery life on the Apple Watch4

[Lois Butterfield]

Do you by any chance have activated raise to speak? That would probably use 
more battery since we tend to move our hands around a lot during the day. 
That’s kind of all I can think of right now.

Hi Wayne,


If you tap where it says heart rate, it will check and let you know current 
heart rate. You can’t monitor it constantly and have any battery left. It uses 
too much energy.

Re: Apple Watch, questions about answering calls on regular series

[Lois Butterfield]

Yes you definitely can answer on your watch. It works very well. You won’t have 
to worry about any extra charges. The watches that have cellular service, you 
do pay extra each month. Your watch even though you’re answering on it is 
working through your phone.
I have the two, and I just ordered a new series for. Can’t wait till it comes. 
I heard the speakers much better.

Take care,
Lois

Re: accessible bathroom scale suggestions

[Lois Butterfield]

Hi,

I have been using the Fitbit aria for 10+ years. It has worked well for me. I 
believe other ones are less expensive though.

Take care,
Lois

Re: Apple watch VS exercise machines

[Lois Butterfield]

Hi, in my opinion, the watch gives much better data. If you put in your health 
data, it’s going on that, plus your heart rate, plus the activity that you’re 
doing. I think it gives a much better reading. Your rowing machine has no way 
of knowing your weight or your other health statistics. It’s just guessing.

Take care,
Lois

Re: Strange Battery Drain Issue with VoiceDream

Have you tried pausing with your headphones just to see if that might clear 
things up? I think I’ve had a similar problem before.

Good luck,

Re: InstaPot with iOS

[Lois Butterfield]

This isn’t the Bluetooth model, but it does say it has an Alexa skill. I’m not 
sure how that would work, but it might work nicely. This also is a 3 quart 
size, which is pretty small I think. I have a 6 quart. Be interesting to know 
if someone has use the Alexa skill successfully with it.

Take care, Lois

Re: Resuming a program on Netflix

[Lois Butterfield]

Hi Bill,

This is what I do to resume a program.

Open the app. Then use 3-finger swipe to get to page 7. At the bottom of the 
page are the programs you have started watching. Tap on the one you want. You 
should then see a resume button somewhere around the middle of the screen.

Yours might not be on page 7, but I’m thinking your programs will always be at 
the bottom of the last page.

Good luck.

Take ccare,
Lois

You could go back to a previous update such as 11.41, but you only have a 
certain window to do it in, which in this case is past. I think you only have a 
few days after you update to the current version to go back down.

even with updating to a newer version on either the phone of the computer. So 
the question, do you think it could cause problems if you're 2 or 3 versions 
behind, being on your favorite update, not really wanting to upgrade to keep 
for a while what you have? If you're in that situation, where the phone is 
concerned would it be better to go up one version at a time, if it was 
possible? I'm thinking that it wouldn't be possible but I could be wrong, but 
it seems to me once there's a current upgrade as in ios 12, one couldn't update 
to 11.4 if they were on the previous version before, since as far as what I 
know you wouldn't have access to that previous version, unless there's some 
place to find those previous versions. With my limited knowledge that's 
something I don't know about, so thanks for the answer to that from you 
experts.  and as far as how it is on the 2 out of the 3 iphone se phones we 
have it does seem to be working well. We'll probably update the third one 
pretty soon. while it's such a minor thing, we love checking the time on that 
phone with touching the home button, but that's such a minor thing. It's funny 
the things we get so use too. touching the power button is just as simple.

Hi Mario,

 

Hopefully in time you’ll be more happy with iOS 12 because on my 6S Plus 
which has the same processor as your SE I find everything is just a bit faster 
and snappier.

As for the issue described by Kim and Denise I would agree, first I would 
ask when they upgraded, if it was just recently then I would ask whether they 
closed all apps in the app switcher before upgrading and rebooted the phone. I 
would also ask if they rebooted the phones after upgrading and possibly suggest 
a reset network settings first. This may or may not help, but all it involved 
is having to reenter your WiFi password and renaming the phone to what you want 
it to be in Settings > General > About, so all in all it’s a pretty easy 
process and if it fixes the issue then it would save them a lot of time. If it 
doesn’t help then yes, do a backup and restore the phone, set it up as a new 
device first and make sure all is well, then restore your backup a day or two 
later. If the problems return then you know that the backup also restored the 
problems which sometimes can happen and the only way then is to restore again, 
set up as a new phone and manually put everything back the way you like.

 

Regards,

Sieghard

Hi.
This was one of the bad things that happened to me on my phone before doing 
a total reset: DFU Mode.
I don't mean with this, that everything is the same as what happened to me 
on your phone.
And even less that you have to do what I had to do...
But if you keep having problems, the best way to solve them is just what I 
did...
Now everything works normally and I'm  happy with my phone as it was in IOS 
10.

  Hi all, 

   

  Ever since updating to iOS12 on my iphone 7 I've been experiencing 
strange app freezes. I don't mean that the phone completely freezes but rather 
the screen becomes unresponsive and the only way to regain any activity is to 
remove the app from the app switcher and relaunch. This has happened to me in 
the native mail app and the Bard app.

   

  Has anyone else seen this behavior? Any ideas for what to do about it? 
It's not constant but occurs often enough to be annoying.

Hi,

 

Has anybody who has an Apple Watch tried out the new Audible watch app? I tried 
it yesterday and at first when I tried to sync a book from the Audible app on 
my phone to the watch it said it was doing it, but on my watch it never showed 
that a book was available.

Finally at some point it did say a book was available, but hopefully others 
will join me in writing to Audible because in order to listen to a book on the 
Apple Watch you have to use a bluetooth headset, you cannot play the book via 
the watche’s external speaker which I think is a really stupid limitation. I 
wonder if Apple imposes such a limitation on audio apps, but if Audible has 
designed it this way I hope they change it because why would they not let me 
choose how I want to listen to my book?

You have the weather, your calendar, plus many other choices right on the

Plus, like others have said, you also have access to your notifications and

I am not aware of a way to calibrate an Apple Watch series 2 or higher though I

The only suggestions I have are to check the watch is correctly positioned at 
the top of your wrist and check how tight you have your watch band.

 

My heart rate on my series 2 agrees with other equipment I have here.

Re: a frustrating dictation problem

Hi,
Speaking strictly for myself yes I can verify the not reading content back
in native apps and this is running the latest operating system on an AT
iPhone 8Plus just to be as detailed as possible. I've just gotten used to
working around it so haven't fussed too much over it myself.
This goes for the dictating itself bug as well.

Hello Robin,

I, too, have a new iPhone 8 Plus running the latest version of the OS.
However, I am not experiencing the problems discussed in this thread.

I do know, however, that some third-party apps do not play well with
VoiceOver via dictation.  For example, when I dictate a title into the
OverDrive public library app, sometimes the dictated text is read back to me
and other times, it is not.  Likewise, getting the edit option to appear in
the VoiceOver Rotor can be a bit of a challenge in some third-party apps,
such as OverDrive.

This is why I always use a native iOS app as my baseline when determining if
something is a system bug or an app-specific bug.

There is a well-known/documented/Apple acknowledged iPhone 8 series system
bug that is probably responsible for the sometimes experienced overlap/delay
dictation feedback anomaly where VoiceOver appears to dictate itself.

Finally, please keep the following in mind.  Despite public opinion to the
contrary, iOS versions can and do vary across carriers.  I assure you that
the iOS version that is running on Verizon Wireless devices is not the exact
same version that is running on a T & T Wireless devices.  Furthermore, yet
a slightly different version of the OS is installed on SIM-free devices.

Most of the time, these differences are all but impossible to notice but,
sometimes, as was the case about 3 years ago with regard to a video display
driver, these differences/bugs do show themselves.

Just some things to keep in mind as you troubleshoot and assess.

Mark

Hi,
I've observed this on an iPhone 8Plus running the latest version of the
operating system. I find that if I insert a space after it makes the I'm out

space or delete it as I wish.  I don't like this problem but hate even more
when you enter dictation and VoiceOver feels the necessity to recite
sometimes a lengthy hint or the like and it ends up trying to dictate
itself, oy (smile).

Re: IOS vs Android

Two things to add to Kelly's solid points:
1.  There is no one to call when you have Android issues, you are at the 
mercy of whatever store you bought it from and good luck there.


2.  In my office, at least 6 years ago, our office switched from 
Blackberries, to iPhones for the 30 plus empoyees who need a mobile phone as 
part of their job.  Many of these folks are less than technically inclined. 
No one has had issues like you are describing on any of their phones and 
everyone has had at least two iPhones in that time period.
Have you taken any of these phones to Apple and what have they said could be 
the cause?


In my household, we've gone through two iPhone 5s's that we had for almost 4 
years, three iPod touches and two iPad mini's; and none of them had battery 
issues.  They were replaced due to choosing to upgrade.
Well, except for the first iPad Mini whose WiFi antenna died which Aple 
replaced at no charge.  They replaced the device, not the antenna, and it 
was 3 months beyond the Apple Care coverage.


Now, on to my nutral opinion of android, or perhaps not so nutral, grin. 
Very little is easy to do on an android compared to an iPhone.  They have 
far fewer gestures, because you have to dive into menus to do many things 
which takes more steps than using the rotor.  I teach both to people mostly 
over 55, and iPhones are significantly easier for people to learn.

Your problems are covered under Apple’s one year warrantee and Apple
Care, which list members strongly recommend. Did you bring your
hardware problems to Apple so they could be addressed?  Remember
different Android companies have differently engineered phones. In
2016, some Samsung phones had exploding batteries. In 2017, Google
XLII phones had ghosting issues on their screens. Everyone wants to
claim they make a device as good as or better than Apple, but when
these companies scale up production, their phones have problems. Then
company executives refuse to answer questions, like with Google’s
phones.

I have been an IPhone user for about the last 6 years.  However every

now my battery is not holding a charge for more than an hour or two.

I used an android phone back in the day when they didn't come with
touch screens, and I haven't tried on with the touch screen yet.

What I have been reading is that android accessibility is not as
mature as that of IOS, and if that is the case I would stick with
IPhone, but I am tired of exploding phones :)

I am not a social media kind of guy, and would use the phone for
making and receiving phone calls sending and receiving texts
navigating using maps while walking of apps like nearby explorer.

Any feedback is welcome.  I do realize this list will be pro ios by
its nature, but any alternate views would be appreciated.

Hi, 

I’m attempting to set up my payment info in the App Store for my first free 
download of an app on this iPhone 6s, having verified my fingerprint ID and 
entered my password when asked. (This is for a free app, but ‘verification is 
required’ probably as it’s my first download on this iPhone from the App Store. 
The 16-digit Credit card number, CVV, and Expiry Date, are  correct. 

So, what does, “Credit card number does not match credit card type” mean? Does 
it mean, that I must contact my card provider to proceed anyway? Or, does it 
mean something else? Or does it signify something else entirely unrelated? Or, 
does it mean that I should simply try PayPal and hope it works? (When I/my Bank 
changed from Visa to MasterCard, iTunes/App Store had accepted that in the past 
and I made purchases using the latter card type.) 

Any good ideas? Thanks.

Scott,

I have the Roomba 980.  Have had it now for about 1.5 years.  My apartment 
is 500 sq. Ft.  For the most part Mr. Roboto (what I called him) does a 
pretty good job.  I do sweep out corners every once in a while.  Does both 
carpet and vinyl pretty good.  I also have a guide dog, so keeps the hair 
down good.  I usually have him run 3 times a week.  Takes it about an hour 
to complete .. I have it set to do 2 passes.


The app is pretty accessible...however things like the battery gauge and map 
aren’t.


My only issue is that he seems to be stopping mid cycle quite regularly with 
an error 17...and there is no reason it should be doing that.  Might just 
need a good cleaning.  If I can’t find it, it has a locate feature...so as 
long as it still has battery I can find it.


If you have any other questions...just ask...

Re: Audible and Amazon Echo

[Lois Butterfield]

Well, time does fly, and I stand corrected once again.  I do like that I can 
listen to my Kindle books that way.  I'm keeping my Windows computer because 
of the Codex program to convert books for VDR.  Maybe I won't need to do 
that so much now.


Thanks everybody,

Actually Echo can play many Kindle books but not all. It has no navigation 
in Kindle books though. The only navigation it has in Audible is by chapter 
so I don't think it's that useful. And, you cannot change the speed of the 
books which some people want to do. But if you don't mind just reading 
straight through the book, it works OK with Audible and with some Kindle 
books. I think there are much better ways to do Audible.

Hi,



How good is the integration between Audible and the Echo/Alexa? I
assume since Audible is owned by Amazon it should be perfect, but
nothing much is said about using Audible or, for that matter, Kindle
books on an Echo.

Also, for those who have any of the Echo speakers, have you used a
wired and also a bluetooth headset for private listening? I assume it
should work just fine?

Re: AirPods

[Lois Butterfield]

Yes, if you are listening with both and take one out, your book or music will 
pause.  You just have to start play again.  If you have both in the case, and 
put one in, you can start listening with just one.

Take care,

OK, thank you. That being said, a good friend of mine who lives in my area, got 
them recently, and she said if she takes one out, if she's listening to 
something or whatever, it stops. That was why I asked you the question. Is 
there something in settings that must be adjusted in order to use one at a time?
Thank you, apologies for my ignorance here

Re: 11.1 and Air Pods with Siri bug

[Lois Butterfield]

Hi Rebecca,

I don't know how noisy your commute is, but it's possible that the Airpods 
are just picking up enough of the background noise to confuse Siri.  They 
really work better in quieter situations.  The IPhone does better at 
blocking out surrounding sounds than do the Airpods.


Just a thought.

Take care,
Lois

Did they fix the bug where Siri Would constantly play or do something that

cumbersome during a commute.

You can try Siri.  Just say, “send an e-mail to ...  Make sure you don’t pause

what I found for tricking Voice Mail Transcription.


  How to Disable Voicemail Transcription in iOS 10/10.1/10.2/10.3.2
  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: Turning off voicemail transcription in IOS11:

[Lois Butterfield]

I found the same tips.  You are cautioned not to change to a language that was 
too far off, as Siri would no longer understand you.

Take care,

I found a tip on the web for iOS 10. Hopefully it works in iOS 11. Here is what 
I found for tricking Voice Mail Transcription.


How to Disable Voicemail Transcription in iOS 10/10.1/10.2/10.3.2
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: More problems with voice dream reader

Wow, I simply asked the question in case there was a reason I should be keeping

I think it’s a good idea to keep the books downloaded in case Congress decides 
to not fund the book share program anymore we would still have access to the 
books. So I don’t see the problem with having as many as we get because we are 
allowed to download them each month so there should not be an issue with that 
since we pay for the service anyway.

Not only do I think the downloading of an entire library not possible, I don't 
think Bookshare would want it to be possible. I think I remember reading in one 
of their policy statements that their reason for being was not so that people 
could amass their own private library, rather to have access to books one 
wanted to read in the present or immediate future, then delete them. One can 
access their book history, and also keep reading lists on Bookshare itself, but 
Bookshare is meant to be a  service from which one can have a library from 
which one can borrow books, then delete them, as opposed to Kindle, or Audible, 
where one purchases them.

would have to download your thousands again over a long period of time. This is 
one of the reasons I keep a book list of what I have read. What gets confusing

Hello list,

So, I’ve been a member of Bookshare since it started around 2002 or 2003. 
I’ve downloaded probably thousands of books in this time. In the process of 
doing so, the older format is not compatible with apps like VoiceDreamReader on 
iOS or the book quality has since been replaced by a better formatted/scanned 
version. That and I may have some books here and others there. This and that 
backup on the cloud or external drive, etc.

My question is… is there in fact a way to download my entire book history 
in one shot or am I looking at a labor intensive task sifting through God knows 
how many titles that stretch back over ten years?

Would appreciate any info on whether this can be accomplished in a 
reasonable manner. 

I’m a Windows user, but my main reading device is the iPhone these days. I 
would ideally like to get everything on my PC first and then upload to the 
iPhone.

 

Thanks,

Cristobal

Hi Seigard,

No, I went with an off brand called Sinemax, and it worked fine for me.  I'm 
thinking it would work for double headphones with lightning plugs, because I 
could plug the charging cable and headphones into either one.

I am just curious as to whether the splitter you have is the Belkin one or a 
different brand. Also, does it allow only for a Lightning headset to be

Hi Candy,

I have a splitter that enables you to plug in two lightning plugs into the 
phone at the same time.  If you are using the earphones that came with your 
phone with the lightning plug, it would work fine for you.


Write me off list if you want more information on it.

Take care,
Lois

Re: adapter for charging and listening with headphones at the same time

[Lois Butterfield]

Okay, I did check, and for some reason, it will not put out sound to two
headsets.  You can use either port on the splitter for sound but not both.

I was very happy with mine, and I think it cost between $15 and $20 on
Amazon.

Take care,
Lois

Hi Seigard,

No, I went with an off brand called Sinemax, and it worked fine for me.  I'm
thinking it would work for double headphones with lightning plugs, because I
could plug the charging cable and headphones into either one.

If you lived closer, I'd run it over to you.  I don't use it anymore.

Hey Lois,

I am just curious as to whether the splitter you have is the Belkin one or a
different brand. Also, does it allow only for a Lightning headset to be
connected along with a Lightning cable to charge the phone or can you plug
in two Lightning headsets? I am curious because there are times when this
could be a nice feature, for example, if I were on a flight with my wife and

Hi Rick,

I have a glass screen protector on my 6S Plus as well, but it could 
definitely be different for different hardware. I think somebody said 
instead of a double tap and hold they did a harder press on the button and 
swiped down, maybe give that a try. I definitely had to tap right on that 
button for this to work for me, it's not like a double tap to activate a 
button where after the button has focus you can tap anywhere at least that 
did not work for me.

It is not the Store button, initially thought that was the one as well.
First of all, make sure you are in an iMessage not a regular text message.
Now, once you are in the edit field, swipe left once and you land on a 
button called "Messaging Apps", that is the one you want.
I tried to do a double tap and hold and swipe down after I put focus on that 
button and that for me at least didn't work. I had to actually find the 
button on the screen, then do a double tap and hold and swipe down when I 
was on that spot.
If that is the same for you, just move your finger left from the edit field 
and you'll find it, if you go past it on the very outside and to the left of 
that button is the "Attach Media" button.

Sieghard

Hello Everyone,

As I loaned out my 6 S Plus running iOS 11, I cannot determine if there 
is a VoiceOver gesture that will allow the same option that is described 
in the article, below, but wanted to post the article anyway so that you 
know that it is possible to hide the iMessage App Doc, permanently, so

CNET How To - Thursday, September 21, 2017 at 9:06 AM Hide the annoying 
app dock in iOS 11's Messages app - CNET


One of the new features in Messages on iOS 11 is a dedicated app dock for 
your iMessage apps. You've undoubtedly seen it since updating earlier 
this week -- it's a row of app icons at the bottom of the screen each and 
every time you open a conversation.


I've seen a lot of complaints on Twitter, and have been asked privately a 
few times about hiding it. At first, I didn't think it was possible. Then 
I found the answer on Reddit.


Hide the app dock by placing your finger on the App Store icon next to 
the text field, and swipe down.


Poof, it's gone.

There's a caveat, because of course there is. If you use an iMessage app 
in the future, the dock comes back. But you can repeat the quick gesture 
to get rid of it again.

Hello Greg,

Wow!  Really?

Which app are you using to play your audio book?  Is that particular app 
installed on your watch?


After reading your post, I immediately began playback of an audiobook in my 
iBooks app on my 6 Plus running 10.33.  While the book was playing, I 
touched my Series 2 watch which is running Watch OS 3, in order to wake it 
up.  Doing this did not result in a now playing screen on my watch.


Perhaps another Watch OS 4 user could try to reproduce your findings.  If 
they cannot, then your problem may simply be the result of a software 
setting.

Hello,
My only issue right now is that if I am playing something like a book on my 
phone, the now playing screen comes up whenever I wake my watch. This is 
beginning to be very annoying when I want to quickly hear the time.

Hi Sieghard,

Pedometer++ and, I assume, the ones Mark mentioned can show your step 
count as a complication on your screen. It doesn't gather data, it just 
displays it, but normally I would have to go into the Activity app to get 
the info.

Hi Mark and Sieghard,

I also haven't experienced problems with VoiceOver other than the watch 
locking more often while I'm doing things. I'm hoping that some of this 
is the result of using a first generation watch; I'm getting a new one 
tomorrow, so I'll know better about that shortly.


I don't use the apps you mentioned, but Pedometer++ is tracking steps 
just fine.

Hi Mark,

I didn't even know about "digital crown navigation", but I just tried it 
and it turned on and seems to work fine.

I think battery life is bettr in iOS 4 (I also have a series 2).
I updated when the update came out in the evening and left my watch 
charging over night. I took it off the charger at 6:30 AM and while I 
didn't use it much throughout the day when I checked it around 4 or 4:30 
PM my battery was still at 94%. I thought 6% in 10 hours is not bad even 
if it's mostly standby.
Only thing I find and this did happen before so I'm not sure if it's 
worse or less so is that sometimes the watch seems to lock for no 
particular reason even if you are doing something. Sometimes when I 
press the digital crown it reads the time and locks almost instantly 
before you can even do anything else other times it's almost like it 
locks when you just did a tap or swipe.

Sieghard

OS 3


Hello Everyone,

Perhaps I should have discerned this by now, after all the messages 
posted in recent days but, alas, I have not; so, I'm just going to ask:


Are there any VoiceOver problems in Watch OS 4 that were not in Watch OS 
3?

Any reason why you wish you had not yet updated?

I am thinking I'm ready to update my Series 2 but, I want to make 
certain I know what I'm in for, so to speak.


I would be interested to learn if any of you are using either the Duffy 
and/or Fitport step-counter apps on your watches and, if so, do they 
continue to function as expected?


Finally, one of my favorite accessibility features of Watch OS 2 is the 
Digital Crown Navigation option.  This option can be toggled on/off with 
a 2-finger, triple-tap.  Is this option still available in Watch OS 4?


All replies greatly appreciated.

Mark

There are benefits, depending on your usage, for installing iOS via
iTunes. Since the iOS image needs to exist on the phone before it can be
installed from the phone, your storage habbits may not allow you to
actually do an over the air update without deciding which app you want
to

(hopefully temporarily!) delete. Considering an iTunes update first
installs the OS, then restores your data from the backup it hopefully
pulled from your phone pre-update, it's not unreasonable to assume it

VDR post update

[Lois Butterfield]

Hi all,

I’m just wondering if anyone else is finding that you can’t use two finger 
double tap to play-pause since the update.  In fact, double tapping my airpods 
doesn’t do it either.  This does work for music and net flicks though, so it 
seems to be just with voice dream reader.

Before I write, I just want to be sure it isn’t just my phone that this is 
happening with.

Re: wireless charging

Hi,

I was hoping someone who knows about the IPhone 8 would answer.  I don’t know 
if it charges wirelessly.  If so, then you wouldn’t need an adapter.  I’m sure 
you could Google that question and get an answer.  I’' just don’t know.  I 
haven’t paid attention since I don’t plan to upgrade from my 7.

Hi,

Because our new car has a charging pad, I started to research charging the

wirelessly.

I use a Lifeproof Free case, and I can fit the phone along with the adapter 
into the case.  I now have an IPhone that charges wirelessly.  I love it.

By the way, the wireless adapter costs way under $20, and you can get 
charging pads for just over $10.

Hi Chris,



I don’t claim to understand this fully, but yes, currently the technology 
which charges devices wirelessly from a distance does not exist. Maybe it 
exists in labs and I can almost guaranty that Apple is probably working very 
hard on getting this to work, but for now wireless just means that you don’t 
have to plug in a wire.

As for public spaces, I believe companies like Starbucks and so on have 
wireless charging pads built into tables so you could have your phone charging 
right next to you, obviously nobody would put their phone down on a charging 
pad and then go away and sit down 10 or 20 feet away.

As for charging when you travel there is nothing which prevents you to do 
this just as you have always done it which means bring your Lightning cable and 
plug it in. However, when Apple releases their “Airpower” charger as they call 
it then for people who have an iPhone, an Apple Watch and maybe Airpods 
bringing this instead makes a lot of sense since it can charge all three 
devices by themselves or all three at once and of course as time goes by this 
may even include other devices which adopt the standard.

As with everything once Apple adopts something, in this case the Chi 
wireless charging standard, they not only can pour a ton of money into it to 
make it better but accessory makers will also scramble to bring out a wide 
variety of devices to compliment it.





Best regards,

Sieghard

Hello folks,

When I listened to the apple keynote, I did not quite understand the 
advantages of wireless charging.  My understanding is that one needs to place 
the phone on a wireless charging pad or stand for it to charge. This is not 
remotely wireless charging.  That means that we have to worry about more 
gadgets to carry when we travel.  In addition to the adapter and the wire, we

  I noticed earlier today that the Bluetooth model is on sale from its usual 
$160 to $128 on Amazon. IN case anyone’s been interested in getting one.

  I was able to price match with BestBuy and applied some rewards points I had 
accumulated to get it down to $80, but still $128 isn’t a bad price if you 
don’t have some BestBuy gift cards on hand to go along with the price matching.

  IN any event, just thought I’d throw out this PSA for those who have been 
thinking of getting one but were holding off because of the price.

I can say that bluetooth works just fine while charging for the same distance.

Well, you cannot hold it up to your head to talk, but I guess you could try to 
use bluetooth (not sure if the signal can make it through the charging field or 
not).

  You can only have one phone on the pad at a time.

  I understand you can also buy a case that has wireless charging built in to

 It isn’t the fast charging one, but I don’t feel the need to pay $60 for a 
fast charge if I’m just sitting here anyway.  

 

I do use bluetooth headphones because I don’t want to have to plug and

  Hi,

  Because our new car has a charging pad, I started to research charging the 
IPhone wirelessly.  I found that you can buy an adapter that plugs into the 
lightning port and sticks to the back of the phone to make your IPhone charge 
wirelessly.

  I use a Lifeproof Free case, and I can fit the phone along with the adapter 
into the case.  I now have an IPhone that charges wirelessly.  I love it.

  By the way, the wireless adapter costs way under $20, and you can get 
charging pads for just over $10.

  Take care,

  Hi Chris,



  I don’t claim to understand this fully, but yes, currently the technology 
which charges devices wirelessly from a distance does not exist. Maybe it 
exists in labs and I can almost guaranty that Apple is probably working very 
hard on getting this to work, but for now wireless just means that you don’t 
have to plug in a wire.

  As for public spaces, I believe companies like Starbucks and so on have 
wireless charging pads built into tables so you could have your phone charging 
right next to you, obviously nobody would put their phone down on a charging 
pad and then go away and sit down 10 or 20 feet away.

  As for charging when you travel there is nothing which prevents you to do 
this just as you have always done it which means bring your Lightning cable and 
plug it in. However, when Apple releases their “Airpower” charger as they call 
it then for people who have an iPhone, an Apple Watch and maybe Airpods 
bringing this instead makes a lot of sense since it can charge all three 
devices by themselves or all three at once and of course as time goes by this 
may even include other devices which adopt the standard.

  As with everything once Apple adopts something, in this case the Chi wireless 
charging standard, they not only can pour a ton of money into it to make it 
better but accessory makers will also scramble to bring out a wide variety of 
devices to compliment it.

  Hello folks,

  When I listened to the apple keynote, I did not quite understand the 
advantages of wireless charging.  My understanding is that one needs to place 
the phone on a wireless charging pad or stand for it to charge. This is not 
remotely wireless charging.  That means that we have to worry about more 
gadgets to carry when we travel.  In addition to the adapter and the wire, we 
will need to also carry a pad or a stand for the wireless charging to work.  

  I understood that if many public places provide wireless charging we would 
not have to worry about carrying our charging accessories.  However, I am not 
sure I would like to place my phone on a charging pad in a restaurant or café, 
or in an airport terminal.  Unless the wireless charging pad is on my table or 
on the arm of my chair, I would not use it.

  Can someone who is more familiar with this idea and process explain it better 
to me?

  Cheers,

  Cris

wireless charging

[Lois Butterfield]

I have my phone in a LifeProof case.  I am thinking that it would depend on the 
case, the thickness and the matterial it’s made from.  The LifeProof is pretty 
thin, and it works great.

I’m surprised the subject hasn’t come up about whether or not you can use a 
case and get a good charge.

Take care,
Lois

Re: Announcement: Blind Shooters (unmoderated discussion group)

Hi Seigard,

Being an American and knowing plenty of them, I whole-heartedly agree with 
you.


That is as far as I'll go, and wasn't going to respond at all but didn't 
want you to think we were all feeling the same way.


Thank you,

Hopefully all you blind shooters won't take offense, but when a bunch of 
Americans talk about shooting I think it's pretty clear that they mean 
primarily guns. I really find the fascination most americans have with guns 
fascinating, no other country in the world is that crazy about guns.
Anyhow, I'll leave it at that and before all of you gun lovers start yelling 
at me I should point out that I have nothing against hunting and sports 
shooting, after all, I have an outdoor and hunting store and sell a couple 
of hundred firearms a year myself, I loved to shoot before I became blind at 
the age of 16, but I don't personally shoot and just don't see a point in it 
just as I don't see a point in driving a car along at a slow speed where 
somebody sitting next to me can tell me to pgo a bit left or a bit right or 
whatever and of course as a Canadian coming originall from Germany I find it 
baffling why a normal citizen would want to walk around packing a gun, I'm 
very glad that this is not possible here and feel a lot safer for it.

My apologies for the cross-post - I’ll make this quick.

Considering that my recent iOS app posting for Where to Shoot prompted some 
good discussion and ideas and also private notes to me with questions about 
shooting, I have started the Blind Shooters Google Group.


This is an unmoderated email list and is meant for all topics around 
shooting as a visually impaired / blind person.


Here is the link for those interested in joining.

Hi, Lois,

That's exactly what I had done.  Do you remember if it had mentioned to 
remove a battery for 10 seconds, then put it back again?  Then it 
mentioned that the scale display should say something about being in the 
setup mode, which I assumed it already was because the card that came with 
the unit said to pull the tab out of the battery compartment and the scale 
would then be in the setup mode.  I'll try it again, and if it doesn't 
work, then I'll connect it to my computer.  Thanks for the advice and I'll 
let you know how it turns out.

you through.  It was the easiest thing to set up because there was no 
code to put in.  Hopefully, that hasn't changed.


Take care,

I have an Aria scale, and to get it on my wifi network, I had to use my
browser on my PC. I'm not sure what else I tried, since it's been a
while, but that's how I got my Aria scale on my network. I think your
scale and your phone have to both be on the same network as well, so if
you have a 2.4G and a 5G network, you may need to ensure both your phone
and your scale are on the same network.


BTW, I'm pretty sure these instructions on the web are the ones I
folloed to get my Aria scale set up

Re: The Aria Fitbit Scale

[Lois Butterfield]

Hi Esther,

Yes, they say to take batteries out, and I just take one out to break the 
connection.  When you put it back, the scale should be in setup mode.  I 
believe the next step is to go to settings and under wifi, connect to the 
one that starts with Aria.  The app will tell you step by step what to do.


Good luck.  Sorry to take so long to get back to you.  I was out this 
morning.


Take care,
Lois

Hi, Lois,

That's exactly what I had done.  Do you remember if it had mentioned to 
remove a battery for 10 seconds, then put it back again?  Then it mentioned 
that the scale display should say something about being in the setup mode, 
which I assumed it already was because the card that came with the unit said 
to pull the tab out of the battery compartment and the scale would then be 
in the setup mode.  I'll try it again, and if it doesn't work, then I'll 
connect it to my computer.  Thanks for the advice and I'll let you know how 
it turns out.

I have the Beets scale but it doesn't always weigh consistently with
itself. If your feet are even slightly off, it will be. I wonder if
the Quardio scale is any more forgiving than the beets? The Beets does
have very pronounced laces for your feet, it's just that I don't
always hit them perfectly before it takes a reading. That may be true
on all of them though.
