I believe that phone is identical in size and button configuration as the

I just bought a new iPhone, SE2022 because my mother poured some sauerkraut on

I want to have another case like the one I had, but I don’t remember where I

IN fact, if anyone really knew the history of Voice Dream they would know 
Winston wrote it originally for himself to learn iOS programming and to have 
something to read documents to him while he drove, ran, worked out, etc.

Then, he found out how useful it could be to people with Dyslexia and began 
focusing on that community and it became one of the most popular apps in the 
education field around the world.

Then came including VoiceOver users in the app.

 

And as I have said too many times, Winston was going to change to a 
subscription model anyway but wanted the app taken care of by a team rather 
than depending on just him, so he sold it to someone who could do just that.

What community are we talking about? OK, it's a rhetorical question because I 
know the blind/visually impaired community is being referred to. However, just 
because Voice Dream Reader is designed to work extremely well with Voiceover 
and has features for low vision users, it is not an app specifically made for 
blind/visually impaired users. In fact, going on the App Store and reading 
reviews, I didn't see a single review from a blind person. The app is also 
extremely useful to people with dyslexia and just anybody who wants an app 
which can read all sorts of files, books or articles to them as they are 
running, working out, driving or doing whatever. This discussion makes it sound 
like the new owners are traitors to the blind community or that they owe us 
something since they choose not  to be on the Viphone list or other Apple 
related lists. Just because Winston Chen decided to have a more hands-on 
approach, let's not demand every developer has to do this since in fact most of 
them don't. I don't think Amazon/Audible is subscribed to the Viphone list and 
neither is Microsoft or even Apple.

Dennis,

You need to get your facts straight.

The Applause Group bought Voice Dream LLC in April of 2023.  Applause Group 
never said you would never have to pay.  They said you didn’t have to pay right 
away.

Jonathan’s take is pretty clear, this is a good business decision.  

But, you are spreading false information.

Boycott it if you want and use something else, but do not give wrong 
information.

 

Could they have handled it differently, probably so.

 

And as I have said, more than once, Winston was going to have to do the exact 
same thing.

I just got off the phone with Apple.  

The rep who I talked to said she didn’t know anything about this, and she 
hasn’t heard anything about this before.  

I told her to check the Apple Community web site, and she did, and she did see 
what I was talking about.  

She also said because of this issue, Apple should be looking in to this, I told 
her T-Mobile is still waiting for Apple to return their call, as they reported 
this to Apple.  

Maybe this is just something new, I’m not sure.  

She did also tell me I should remove the Sim Card, and replace it back in, the 
same thing T-Mobile told me to do.  

She told me where the Sim Tray is, but I don’t know if I have anything around 
the house that small to push in the Sim Tray though.  

I don’t remember if I kept the box my phone came in, because she said there is 
a little pin that comes with the phones to use for the Sim  Tray, so I will 
have to look for that.  

Just thought  I would let you know.  

Another bug to deal with!  Ouch!

T-Mobile said Apple told them the work around for this is to remove the Sim

I can’t seem to find the Sim card tray to remove the card.  

T-Mobile said I could use maybe a earring to remove the card.  

Do you know anything about this?

Would someone who uses T-Mobile as their phone carrier give me a phone number

I just called them, and the rep who I talked to said T-Mobile has been having a

The rep also said he can set up my voice mail greeting, but I can do that

So the rep told me to dial some numbers, and I did, but we then got

The rep also said it is best if I call them from another phone though, so I

didn’t even hear my phone ring.  

So, again I am trying to get in touch with them without having to spend the

Subject: iPhone Plus, Definitely Heating It Up: Mark is Taking a Pass on iPhone 
15 Series

Hello All,

Well, I have been working with a 15 Plus for over a week. I have truly been 
putting it through it proverbial paces and I can tell you that the device heats 
up far faster and far warmer than does my beloved 14 Pro Max.

It's really quite interesting as I understand that the 15 Plus is just a 14 
series inside that titanium case.  Is this true?

Regardless, with only a screen protector installed and using a cheap $10 case I 
purchased at the Apple store, using the device for any uninterrupted length of 
time when performing longer tasks such as performing system restores, lengthy 
GPS navigation, App updates (over 30 or so at a time) the phone really heats 
up.  I'm not saying it is heating to a dangerous level but I am saying that it 
is heating up so much and so fast that I have decided to not purchase a 15 Pro 
Max, this year.

Of course I am comparing the 15 Plus with my beloved 14 Pro Max with the same 
level of screen brightness.

Okay, just thought I would pass this along.

Keep in mind, this is just my experience:  Your milage may vary.

I hope you are all doing well.

Mark

This way you don't propagate those mistakes you made on your previous device.

Hi,
Does anyone have thoughts on what is best when upgrading, whether one should 
start fresh with the phone or whether one should always get what was saved from 
iCloud. I'll be upgrading from the 12 basic to the
15 pro, and I noticed that when I upgraded from the XR to the 12, I simply got 
what was saved on iCloud. It was the same settings and same layout as before, 
and somewhere along that time I got apps that weren't being used anymore or 
that I had downloaded and didn't need. I guess the question is whether I should 
start from scratch on this new phone and download the apps I want or whether I 
should get what I want from icloud and keep everything I've had for years in 
the way of older apps and layout and such.

For audio, I don't use bard for Braille books. As I said in my last email, I 
have the problem consistently when using the sleep timer. Rather than 
restarting at the point where the timer ended, the reading reverts back to 
whereever I started the sleep timer. 

I am using the most recent versions of both the Bard app and iOS.

RE: FW: Bluetooth and typing while using voiceove3r

2023-06-09 Thread Mr. Ed
Hi,
I called Jabra tech support and they said the dongle is Bluetooth.
Do your headset have a lag when you are typing? So say you type a few letters 
then wait about five seconds then type a letter or two and do you hear them or 
not?

@Mr. Ed, presently i have Jabra Evolve 2 65 which is an upgrade over evolve 65. 
This jabra evolve 2 65 also comes with a daungle to connect to the headset 
along with direct bluetooth connection. It has all the features those are 
present in 2 75 except active noise cancellation and voice through.
But what i am concerned with is that, despite of having a dongle, it does not 
behave like 2.4ghz headset. There is no difference between connecting the 
headset with laptop in bluetooth mode or through dongle. I just want to 
confirm, are you sure that 2 75 has 2.4ghz mode of connecting through the 
dongle? I see only USB dongle connection under its describtion. I have not seen 
2.4ghz connection in jabra headsets so far. Correct me if i have wrong 
information.

Hi Sieghard,

I agree with you on the Logitech H800. If you remember I told you about them 
many years back. Since a person cannot get them anymore, I have been on the 
hunt for something to take their place. I have tried many headsets. The ones I 
am using now are the best things I have found to take their place. They are the 
Jabra Evolve2 75. They are a very good headset with many features. They have a 
dongle and also have hear through along with about 30 hours of battery life. 
They have an app to make all kinds of adjustments on them. The one thing they 
do very well is you can be on your pc and also on the iPhone at the same time. 
No more switching back and forth. So if you are on your pc and get a phone call 
you just push the button on the headset and you can answer and talk on the 
headset. Then push the button to hang up on the headset. Then if you are on 
your pc you can just pickup your iPhone and start using it and voice over 
starts and you can do anything on your iPhone. Then you can go back to the pc 
and the sound comes from your pc without doing anything. Also I like the hear 
through feature as I can talk to my wife and hear her with my headset on. If 
you want to turn it off you can just push button on the headset to turn off 
hear through or turn it back on. I also where hearing aids on my ears and the 
Jabra Evolve2 75 go on the ear and not over them which works great for me 
wearing hearing aids. They are very comfortable  as I wear them 10 to 15 hours 
a day. There is only one issue is they are kind of expensive. If you call Jabra 
sales, they will give you a lot off and free  shipping. It is cheaper price 
then Amazon.Again the headset is a Jabra Evolve2 then 75. It sound like 275 
but is Jabra Evolve2 then 75. You can call them at (866) 697-8757

You get perfect, lag-free performance and responsiveness with a Logitech H800, 
the problem is that that headset is as far as I know discontinued.

There are other headsets which use a dongle, but you have to make sure it's 
actually a dongle which communicates with the headset via 2.4 Khz frequency and 
not via some sort of Bluetooth protocol since there are also headsets with a 
dongle and it's actually a Bluetooth connection.

The good thing is that you can easily buy replacement battery packs for the 
H800 on Amazon and also replacement foam ear cushions so hopefully I can use 
mine for many years to come. The H800 does not have super battery life as some 
other headsets do, but it's in  my opinion the most comfortable, relatively 
light weight and the fact it can communicate via 2.4 Ghz as well as Bluetooth 
makes it a super solution. I have it paired with my iPhone via Bluetooth so if 
I slide the on/off switch up just one click it connects to my iPhone and if I

There is no fix, this is simply a result of Bluetooth latency which exists in

My iphone 8 does this all the time, and yes, its rather annoying.  I think that 
the particular app is refreshing itself or something.  The screen actually 
lights up for a second and then the screen curten returns again and the focus 
is usually moved to the top of the page.  This often happens for me on webpages 
and photos, but it also happens in other apps too.  I have no idea how to make 
it stop, its just something that I put up with.  You could always try 
restarting your phone and or emptying the app switcher if it starts happening 
too often.

Subject: RE: How to set up Advanced Data Protection, end-to-end encryption for 
your iCloud data, Mac Daily News

 

I have been using Roboform probably for more than 15 years and it has been a 
reliable password manager for me. You can also have an unlimited amount of 
so-called SafeNotes and while I have never tried to set one up with information 
that is say 5 or 6 pages long, I don't think each SafeNote has a size limit, 
either and if it does it's more than enough.

I have things like all my credit card numbers with expiry dates, CV codes and 
corresponding phone numbers in such SafeNotes, also my bank accounts including 
the bank's institution, transit numbers, routing and swift codes. I have a 
SafeNote called Gift Cards where I write down the numbers and codes of gift 
cards I sometimes buy with points, how much the card had on it, when I bought 
it and when I used it. I also include what it was I bought and what, if any, 
the balance remaining is. I have SafeNotes for my tech gear, e.g. Lenovo, HP, 
Sonos etc. and here I have written down everything I ever bought, when I bought 
it and for how much, serial numbers of printers, laptops and on and on.

I have of course a SafeNote called Apple where I have my 2-factor 
authentication recovery key, I now added the advanced data protection recovery 
key and of course in there as well are the serial numbers of my wife's and my 
iPhones, our Apple TV, iPad etc.

I use a random 14-character master password for Roboform which I also change 
from time to time and use nowhere else, Roboform data on their servers is of 
course encrypted and I also use 2-factor authentication which for Roboform 
means if anybody including myself tries to sign in on a new device, I get an 
email with a 6-digit OTP (one-time password) code. I feel it's more or less as 
safe as it can be.

 

I also have a Yubiko hardware security key which looks a little bit like a 
small USB drive, but thinner with a button on it which you press to 
authenticate. I haven't really started using it much yet, but plan to set it up 
for my new Lenovo ThinkPad and Lenovo small form factor desktop computer in the 
office as an additional way to sign in (I also have set up a PIN and on my 
laptop I can also use face recognition and fingerprint).

I still have to explore all the other uses for it because it does also support 
2-factor authentication for Dropbox and many more services, currently I am 
using the Microsoft Authenticator app to generate my Dropbox 2-factor 
authentication code.

Below is first a link to an article from The Verge about security keys and then 
an Amazon Canada link for the Yubiko which is compatible with USB-A ports, but 
they do make a UsB-C version as well:

There is also a UsB-C version of this device available, but according to the 
article from The Verge it does not include NFC and they also mentioned that 
Yubiko was looking at making a version with a Lightning port. I would certainly 
not buy a Lightning version now considering that next year it is highly likely 
that the Lightning port finally disappears in favour of a UsB-C port and USB-C 
is certainly the way forward at least for many years to come.

 

 

Best regards,

Sieghard

Could people who have iOS 16.2 or earlier check if they can still successfully

I am on iOS 16.3 public beta and this seems to have stopped working which is 
too bad because it was a handy command.

For me this issue is a constant when I use Eloquence.  For example, I can read 
only about three pages in a Kindle book before speech stops. Pretty much any 
news article I read or other content of more then a few paragraphs has the same 
happen.

 

If I don't use Eloquence, the problem of speech stopping goes away.

I have not noticed a change. There have been times for many versions when

Could you maybe give one or two links that demonstrate this behavior.

It has not happened often enough for me to be bothered by it, but if it is

RE: Battery Polarity in QardioArm?

Yes, put flat side of battery against the spring.

Subject: Battery Polarity in QardioArm?

 

Hi, group.

My brand new QardioArm is showing low battery sign and I would put new battery 
in tomorrow.

I am not aware of correct polarity in QardioArm. When I change battery in my 
portable radio, I touch the flat part of the battery to the spring and keep the 
bumpy part away from it.

I don’t know how to make sure the correct polarity here.

Any help is much appreciated.

Thanks!

No, Pressing the next button which also says cancel does not stop it from 
saving it in the history. It just take longer to show up in history. I bet if 
you go back in to history it will be there.

Hi,

I was just in the app this morning and strangely after taking a reading and 
getting the results there was no next button only a cancel button which of 
course when hit caused your reading not to be saved in history.  I didn't have 
the time to play to see if turning on screen recognition would yield the more 
expected next button that let you proceed with your saving result and then the 
done button or not. I was just curious if anyone else had encountered this new 
seeming glitch with accessibility.

Take good care,

Robin

RE: Reading prescription labels

2022-11-26 Thread Mr. Ed
Hi All,
I wrote this letter out to people in Aberdeen where I live. Where ever you live 
you have to talk to your Walmart store and request the scrip talk if they do 
not have it. Just to let you know they probably are going to tell you they 
don't have it and can't get it. But this is not correct. Walmart has a policy 
that if anyone request  this service they have to get it. So if they give you a 
hassle just call Envision America and explain it to them and they will contact 
the Walmart store and get it going for you. I have informed this to many people 
and this has worked in the past. What also is nice is they will FX the 
prescriptions out to you for free. So what do you have to loose. Give it a try. 
It only takes a couple of phone calls. See all the info below explaining  the 
process and numbers to call. 
To Who It May Concern,
I was able to get Aberdeen’s Walmart to get ScripTalk into the Pharmacy. What 
does this mean and what can it do for you?
1.  It is a free device that reads the prescription information on 
prescription bottles with a device provided free from Envision America. This is 
for visually impaired or for people who have a hard time reading their 
prescription bottles. It gives all the information on the bottle including 
other information about the medication.
2.  You can also use an app on a smart phone to read the information on the 
prescription bottle.
3.  Walmart will also mail the prescription out to you free by FedX from 
the Aberdeen store and you should get it next day.

All the device and shipping is free with no extra cost to anyone.

The first thing to do is call Envision America at 800-890-1180 and provide them 
your information and they will ship you out the device to read your 
prescription at no cost and get everything going for you.

Then call or go to Walmart and they will get all your meds sent to their 
pharmacy for you and add the Scriptalk tag to your prescription bottle so you 
can read them with the free Envision America device which is easy to use with 
one button to push to get it to read the prescription bottle or use your smart 
phone with the Envision America Scriptalk app.

Here is the website to read more about it.

Audible Prescription Labels | ScripTalk Talking Labels | En-Vision America 
(envisionamerica.com)

I do not work for Walmart or Envision America or make any money promoting this 
product that is free to the customer. I am just doing this as I am a blind 
individual that now uses this service and believe many more people could 
benefit from this free service. I have been trying to get a pharmacy in 
Aberdeen to provide this service for over five years or so. Aberdeen’s Walmart 
just started this service on April 22, 2022. I just got my first prescription 
with the new service and it works great. So give it a try as what do you have 
to lose. 
So please pass the word out to all people who could benefit in using this great 
service to read their prescription bottles.

Are there any accessible apps for the vacuum robots?

2022-11-26 Thread Mr. Ed
Hi All,

Are any of the robot vacuum accessible using an app on the iPhone? I have a
friend that is blind and looking for a robot vacuum that might have an
accessible app for the iPhone. If not which robot vacuum do you feel is easy
to setup and use by a blind person. Also he wants the one that automatically
dumps. If you have any ideas or suggestions on this please let me know.

RE: First thoughts on Apple Watch series 8 and iPhone 14

2022-09-08 Thread Mr. Ed
Hi Sieghard,

You better get one of these new apple  watches to check your temperature  so 
you can check to make sure you don’t get pregnant. That would be a bad thing. 

Subject: First thoughts on Apple Watch series 8 and iPhone 14

 

The Apple Watch 8 has some good new features with crash detection and the 
build-in body temperature sensor, but from what they said during the event that 
temperature sensor seems to be exclusively used for cycle tracking and may help 
women who are wanting to get pregnant, they did not say you could simply use it 
to measure your body temperature as you can with a Withings Thermo or other 
body temperature thermometer to see if you have a fever or not.

T

He Apple Watch 8 Ultra sounds pretty cool and if I did more scuba diving than I 
currently do once every couple of years when I go to the Philippines I might be 
tempted to see how accessible it is as a dive computer; but it's definitely an 
impressive watch.

 

The iPhone 14 has the same A15 chip as the iPhone 13 although they didn't say 
it in so many words; I think that is the first time Apple released a new iPhone 
and they kept using the same chip as in the one from the year before.

The iPhone 14 Pro gets the latest A16 chip which makes the new camera system 
and always-on display possible.

I thought it was nice to see that Apple included the new emergency SOS via 
satellite on both phones and I was definitely surprised when they said it was 
going to be free for the next 2 years. This would indicate, however, that 
ultimately it will be  a paid service and of course let's not forget that it is 
only available for the United States and Canada at that point. For once Canada 
is getting something at launch which was not always the case (Apple New, Apple 
Pay and other features are examples where it took a while for Canada to get it).

Crash detection is also part of all iPhone 14 models so now if you are driving 
with somebody and you have a crash (let's hope it will never happen) you may 
get help quicker.

As expected the Mini is gone and replaced with the 6.7 inch iPhone 14 Plus.

Storage still tops out at 1 Tb so no 2 Tb phone as was rumoured.

Also, in the United States (not sure about Canada) all iPhone 14 models will 
now no longer have a SIM tray, it is e-SIM only from now on.

 

Apart from that this is pretty much it. Anybody who has an iPhone 13 or 13 Pro 
has in my opinion very little reason to upgrade unless you spend considerable 
time out of cell service and may want the added peace of mind the emergency SOS 
via satellite offers; you can also share your location via Find My by 
satellite, but I haven't quite figured out if you can simply send text messages 
to somebody else, but I don't think so. If you have dedicated devices like 
Garmin's Inreach or a Zoleo satellite messenger which of course also requires 
you to subscribe to one of their plans, you can text anybody and receive text 
replies from anybody and you don't have to make a big production of pointing 
your iPhone to where the satellite is. An Inreach or Zoleo in fact can be in 
your backpack's top pocket and it works just fine and none of these devices 
have an external antenna which during the presentation Apple hinted would be 
required. Anyways, the satellite SOS is definitely a good start and once again 
something new and innovative Apple has introduced and I would bet money on it 
that within the next year or so Android phones will be released which also have 
this. What surprised me was that Apple seems to have set u p their own centre 
for this, but that is probably the only way they can offer this for free and 
they also didn't say which satellite network they use for this, i.e. Iridium or 
Globalstar.

 

Will I upgrade from my iPhone 11? I honestly haven't decided, but if I do it 
would definitely be to a 14 Pro because then at least I would also gain the 
LiDAR feature. 

As for the Apple Watch I think I'll stick with my sixth Gen watch, it doesn't 
have blood oxygen or the new temperature sensor, but unless I experience what 
Arnold Schwarzenegger did in "Junior" I doubt I'll be pregnant any time soon.

In any case, I'll wait to see if my provider wants to offer me a deal I can't 
refuse, Telus already sent me a message yesterday telling me that I am on their 
priority list and will get a call in case I want to preorder the new iPhone 
although even if I decide to upgrade I would probably rather buy it outright.

Subject: RE: Can I Use Touch ID Instead of Pass Code

You have to remember that just as you described, the passcode is required when 
you turn  your phone off and back on. Each time you restart the phone you have 
to enter your passcode, the same goes if you try Touch I d and after a certain 
number of attempts it doesn't recognize your fingerprint, it will then ask for 
the passcode to authenticate and unlock the phone.
I don't know if  you turn your phone often, but really you shouldn't. iPhones 
are designed to be on all the time and the don't have to be shut down at all. 
From time to time you may end up having to turn it off and back on if you have 
strange issues or of course there could be a time when you simply run out of 
battery and the phone turns itself off, but I literally go weeks and sometimes 
months without turning my phone off and back on and the only time I have to put 
in my passcode is when for some reason Face Id isn't working a few times one 
attempt after another (same goes for Touch Id) or for some other strange 
reason. But typically I again often go days without having to enter my passcode 
manually.

It's been asking for the Pass Code for months now.

When I power up, it says Pass Code is required when phone starts up.  My memory 
is that it started asking for it after I had set use Touch ID on the App Store 
instead of Apple ID.  I turn on the phone much more than I get apps and had 
tried to change it to must use Apple ID on App Store in hopes of not being 
asked for the Pass Code to turn on the phone, but I still had to use the pass 
code.  I THINK I could use Touch ID the other day when I installed a free app 
from the App Store and did not have to type my Apple ID but it wasn't a good 
day and my memory may not be correct.

I don't want to get rid of the Pass Code entirely; having it helped with some 
mishap I had.  I just would prefer not to have to type it in every time I use 
the phone.

The size difference is minor, I have put the dimensions and weights as well as 
IPX rating below as this can be easily looked up by doing a Google search for 
"iPhone 13 Mini specifications" or "iPhone SE 2022 specifications", but let's 
not forget that despite the slightly smaller size of the iPhone 13 Mini it has 
a larger screen than the iPhone SE 2022 and it is significantly more water 
proof.
In terms of actual difference, the iPhone SE 2022 is just over a quarter inch 
taller and about an eighth of an inch wider.
The difference in thickness is so minor, 0.35mm, that it can hardly be 
expressed in inches, but for those who really care, this would be 0.0138 
inches, in fractions it would be 1/72 of an inch.
Also the weight is only 4 grams different, once again not anything you could 
ever notice if you held one phone in one hand and the other in your other hand.
Of course there is the silly home button which some people think they can't 
live without, but of course will have to live without in a few years after the 
shiny new iPhone SE 2022 they may buy now has to be replaced and there will 
just not be another model with home button. As far as I am concerned I agree 
with Kelly and I'd take the increased water resistance and newer design with 
larger OLED screen of the iPhone 13 Mini any day over the SE 2022, but then 
again I wouldn't buy either one since I hate having a phone in my pocket even 
one as small as the 13 Mini. In fact, I didn't even carry my iPhone 4S in my 
pocket and it was even smaller than that. I always wear a belt so a belt hip 
holster for me is simply the way to go. Here now those specs:

iPhone 13 mini

The phone is not small. If you want a smaller size phone, then go for the 13

Hello. I am looking for a replacement accessible smart blood pressure monitor. 
I had been using the Qardio, but now they have gone to a subscription model, 
and I don't see a need to pay for use of a product I had already purchased. The 
monitor would need to be accessible , work well with VoiceOver, and integrate 
with the Health app. What other monitors would fit my needs? A friend told me 
about the iHealth line of products, but what are people's thoughts on these? 
Thanks in advance for all information.

Has your volume drop down on your iPhone?

2022-07-20 Thread Mr. Ed
Hi Everyone,

It seem to me that my volume has drop down on my iPhone. First of all I have
turned my master volume up to 100 percent and have push up the volume
control button but the volume does not get as loud as it use too. Also the
volume does not go as loud on my wireless headsets as they did before. I
have never had to run my volume up at 100 percent or have my headset up much
higher. I have a 12 pro. In the phone ear piece it also does not get as loud
as it use too or the speaker. My friend has a 13 pro and he says the same
thing is happening to his phone. Has anyone else experience this issue with
in the last two months. I also contacted Apple and they check all my
settings and ran a diagnostics and said everything is fine.

Any suggestions or ideas?

 

Mr. Ed

from Moderator Mark

Hello Everyone,

Well, for whatever reason, Google, in its infinite wisdom has seen fit to
restore our original group forum back to it servers.

Neither Cara or I know why this was done so unceremoniously.

It's really quite interesting, the original groups settings are back in my
dashboard and all systems appear to be a go.

Perhaps Google bands certain groups for a period of 30-days; who knows.

What I can tell you is that Google did not, in anyway, communicate its
decisions with us.

So, please be patient as, for now, both lists will remain active until we
are certain that the original V iPhone list is stable.

If you are being overwhelmed with list traffic, then for the next week or
so, I suggest that you make the new list your primary forum, until further
notice.  

If the old list remains stable for the next week, then Cara and I may, may
(mind you) elect to disable the new group.

The truth is, we just don't know at this time.

For now, Cara and I will be certain to post to both groups so that everyone
is kept in the proverbial loop.

Your understanding is truly appreciated.

Moderator Mark

RE: purchasing iPhone 13

2021-08-27 Thread Mr. Ed
I don’t know why people are so scared to get an iPhone without a home button. 
With an iPhone with a home button you swipe up from the bottom to bring up the 
control panel so that is all you do on an iPhone without a button is to just 
swipe up about an inch or so and it is like pressing the home button. What’s so 
hard about doing that.

RE: Hearing Aid Not Pairing on 12 Pro Max

Subject: Hearing Aid Not Pairing on 12 Pro Max

For the first time in eighteen months, I got to go out to a public 
gathering. Of course, I put a fresh set of batteries in my hearing aids 
and inserted them into my ears, but when I tried using the phone with 
them, not only were they not paired with the phone, but I could not do 
the pairing. I opened Bluetooth Settings and found somebody's LG 
something in the area with which I accidentally paired, but my hearing 
aids weren't even on the list. My aids are not the type that can receive 
firmware updates, so I know that's not the problem. However, I do have 
an Apple Watch, and it was correctly paired with the phone. Is it 
possible that it's not permissible to have a watch and aids paired at 
the same time? Or did I possibly forget to set something up on the phone 
correctly when I did the initial install and setup, moving from the 10S 
(or XS) Max to the 12 Pro Max two months ago?


Thanks in advance for any suggestions, gratefully received.

hi,

 

After I placed my phone on the wireless charger, I routinely touch the top 
right corner of the screen to get the battery level announcement. If it is 
charging it will tell me battery level 60% on AC power. If it is not accurately 
placed on the charger, it just announces battery level 60%.

 

Hope this helps. Keith

I received mine yesterday. I don’t have experience to compare either, 
but I did think it would charge a little faster. It is kind of fun just to lay 
the phone down and have it charge. I do have to pay attention to not bumping it 
off center. I also like just setting my AirPods Pro on the pad.

To my surprise, the Nanami Wireless Charger that was due to

Office no less.

 

This being my first hands-on with a wireless charging pad, this 
is what I can say.

It is about 3.75 inches in diameter.

It comes with the “fast” charging block and a USB A to USB C 
cable that is 3 feet long.

When plugged in properly to the pad, the USB C plug clicks into 
place so you know you have a good solid connection.

 

I don’t know what “fast” charging means on an iPhone SE 2020, 
but I have a thin clear case that is rated to work with wireless charging pads. 
 My phone went from 10% to 100% in a little over three hours.  Again, this is 
my first experience with this kind of charger; but that doesn’t seem fast to 
me.  Maybe I’m missing something.

 

You do have to make sure it is in the center of the back of the 
phone, which means that if you press the home button at all, it will teeter up 
off the charger so you have to hold it down with the other hand.  When I get a 
phone with no home button, which I plan to do this fall, and if I keep the 
charger, that won’t be an issue.

 

HTH,

What is happening is that you are pressing 3 fingers to the screen instead of

RE: Apple Care+ or other insurance products.

2021-05-05 Thread Mr. Ed
Hi,

To me paying 18 a month is pretty expensive. So if you pay $18 a month that is 
$216 a year and if you pay this for three years that come to $648. So to me you 
would almost be buying a new iPhone 12 in three years. In two year you would be 
shelling out $432. With that amount you could send it in an get anything fix 
and still be money ahead by not paying for insurance.

Hi Richard,

You cannot setup Hey Siri without going through the steps of training her to 
your voice, or at least a voice.

I just tried it on a phone that had no Siri history.

 

You can turn on using Siri with the Home Button, but whether you do that or 
not, if you try to turn on Listen for Hey Siri, and do not go through the 
training steps, it stays turned off.

RE: In need of assistance

2021-05-03 Thread Mr. Ed
Hi Kate,

I’ll let you decide what type of phone to use for your grandmother. But here 
are the step to turn on “Hey Siri.”

 

1.   Click on the settings app.

2.   Go to Siri and Search and click on this.

3.   Click on “Listen to hey Siri” to turn this on.

4.   Close settings and you are done.

 

Now just say “Hey Siri what time is it?” and Siri should answer.

If you want to turn Voice Over on just say Hey Siri turn on Voice Over. If you 
want to turn Voice Over off just say Hey Siri turn off Voice Over.

When you have voice Over on you can swipe with one finger to the right to make 
the focus go to the right and if you want to go left just flick with one finger 
to make the focus go left. You can also just touch or move your finger around 
the screen and voice Over will announce what you are on. So say you are on the 
settings app and VO says Settings and if you want to open settings you do a one 
finger double tap anywhere on the screen after you hear settings to open the 
settings app.

 

Let us know any other questions you may have.

Mr. Ed

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

say, Hay Siri, call Jim or Hay Siri, call 911. It can be used that way.

Hi Kate,
You can also turn Voice Over on and off by telling Siri to turn on voice over 
or Hey Siri turn off voice over if you have Hey Siri turned on in settings or 
by holding down the home button until you hear the prompt.

Hello Kate,
I'd also be happy to help. The tripple press of the home button is only in

If it's already been set up, then the user would go to

Deleting text when composing a text

2021-04-24 Thread Mr. Ed
Hi,

I have a iPhone 12 pro and when I compose or dictate a text message and I
want to delete what I have typed or dictated I do a one finger double tap
and hold on the delete key and it use to keep deleting until you lifted your
finger off the screen. Now when I do a one finger double tap and hold all it
does is delete one letter. Is anyone else having this issue on your 12 pro
iPhone? 

Any help or idea what the issue is would be appreciated.

Mr. Ed

RE: Adjusting Vibration Strenghth in iPhone 12 Pro

Hi,
Make sure when you swipe up from the bottom to open your iPhone go up straight 
with your finger and not at an angle. I am guessing this is the issue for a lot 
of blind people not swiping up straight with their finger.

Hi, Richard.  I knew it was there somewhere.  I did find it and it was set 
already at 100%.  I'm Okay if I can hear the little popping sound the phone 
makes when my finger is in the right spot to swipe up, and I can feel 
vibrations when I swipe, but I don't feel anything that actually tells me where 
to swipe.  Very frustrating because it's there and people can see me trying to

In my work as a rehabilitation instructor I ran into lots of clients dealing 
with this.
There are the Dexcom  and the Freestyle Libre styles that are patches you wear 
for between 12 and 14 days I think, and work wirelessly with your phone, so you 
don't have to buy their extra monitoring device.
Those you can avoid having to prick your finger for blood.  Or the Talking 
Prodigy model  where you have to use the blood strips, replacement strips are 
available from amazon.

I've heard that the Dexcom is a bit more accessible with your phone.  You need 
at least an iPhone 7.
Here is the link to the Dexcom https://www.dexcom.com/g6-cgm-system

RE: Is Siri really that worthless?

2021-03-27 Thread Mr. Ed
Hi,
I use Siri all the time to send text messages or audio messages. I just say hey 
Siri, send a audio message to X then she will say recording and I just 
start talking and when I stop talking for about five seconds or longer Siri 
comes on and says do you want me to send it. At that point and I can say play 
and she will play my audio message and when it is done she says send it and you 
say yes. If you don't want to hear it played back just say yes when she asked 
if you want it sent.

Thanks for the tip!  Siri can be very frustrating at times, especially with 
dictating a text message.

I find dictating a message from the messages app using Voice Over is much 
more accurate, and you can edit your message if there are any errors.

The nice thing is, you don't have to use face ID if you don't want to.
I remember a while ago, I talked to someone at apple accessibility.
They were very helpful, and told me, that if you didn't want to use face ID, 
you could use your pass-code instead.  If the iPhone 13 doesn't have a touch ID 
option, that's what I'm going to do.  I'm glad if I don't want to use faceID I 
don't have to.  I do like touch ID a lot, though, because if I want to purchase 
an app, all I have to do, is just put my thumb on the home button.  My phone 
makes a little ding, and I've purchased my app.  Its very easy.

RE: Question About Touch ID

2021-03-10 Thread Mr. Ed
Hi,

Let me explain about the new touch ID that apple rumors are talking about. The 
rumors say the new touch ID will be that you can touch anywhere on the screen 
with one finger and it will read your finger print to open the iPhone. Another 
words there is not going to be a home button to put your finger on like it the 
past on the iPhones.

 

Now the second comment I want to make about worrying about someone holding the 
iPhone up to your face to open it. If you are going to worry about that then 
here is another hypothetical for you to consider as some of you are saying 
touch ID is safer. What if someone hits you on the head and takes your finger 
and puts it on the screen of your iPhone and opens it? So as you can see you 
can play this hypothetical game all day long worrying about someone opening 
your iPhone and which one is more safer face ID or Touch ID.

 

Mr. Ed

Just to add to Brad’s excellent post below, the attention aware setting makes 
sure you’re looking into the camera before your phone is unlocked. As I said in 
my post, this keeps someone from waving your phone in front of your face, such 
as when you’re sleeping, to get your phone unlocked.

The Attention awareness setting can be found in one of two places:

 

1.  Settings < FaceID and Passcode > Require Attention for FaceID, or:

2.  Settings > Accessibility > FaceID & Attention.

 

In the second setting, under Accessibility, you will find additional Attention 
Awareness and Haptic Alert settings that are very useful to blind and vision 
impaired FaceID users..

You can leave the attention aware setting turned on for face ID and then you

I would wonder if touch ID is more secure than facial ID, in that no one could 
grab a phone, hold it up to someone's face and get it open. That probably is 
not likely to happen, but in the case of touch ID, it would not. 

I currently have facial ID, but of the two, think touch is probably more 
secure.

RE: Setting Voiceover To Speak When Connected To Vehicle's Bluetooth

2021-03-10 Thread Mr. Ed
Hi Mike,

I know what you are talking about as my wife had the same issue. You have to 
have your wife’s iPhone connected by wire to the car to make it speak through 
the car speaker. It will not speak when connected by Bluetooth. I can get my 
iPhone to speak through my iPhone but I do not have my iPhone Bluetooth to the 
car. I had my iPhone connected to the car by Bluetooth and my iPhone would not 
speak through my iPhone speaker and it also messed up VO. If I disconnected it 
from being Bluetooth to the car my iPhone VO worked fine and my iPhone sound 
came out my iPhone speaker giving the driving instructions.   I believe you 
have two choices to make the iPhone speak when doing driving. 1. You have to 
have the iPhone connected by wire to the car for it to speak and it will come 
out the speakers on the car. 2. You can have the info come out of the iPhone 
but you cannot have it connected to the car by Bluetooth for this to work. This 
is what I have figured out so far. If you figure out otherwise let me know.

My wife is running an SE 2020 phone with iOS 14.4.1.  I don't know when this 
happened, but before when she was driving with the phone connected to any of 
our vehicles bluetooth system she could ask Siri for driving directions and 
they were spoken through the phone instead of the car stereo.  Right now once 
the phone connects to the vehicles bluetooth I can't get Voiceover to speak and 
it's definitely activated.  The phone is not muted but, I just don't know where 
to turn at this point to get the driving directions back to speaking through 
the phone.

 

Will someone please give me steps on how to get the audio driving directions 
back?  All help is greatly appreciated and graciously accepted!  Thanks mooy

Stay safe and take care.  Mike.

Hi Hary, et al,
When you are on the first call, flick right to Cart Controller, minimized.  
Double tap on that.
Then, about half way down the screen on the right side is an Add Person button.
If you only have items that say the other persons video or your video, double 
tap on the other persons video, then the ccart controller button should show up.
When that is expanded by double tapping it, then you find the other options 
including Add Person.

Subject: VoiceOver gesture in FaceTime?

When on a FaceTime call on my iphone SE,  double tapping on the screen will 
bring up the controls. Richard sent me an article which describes how, if 
sighted, on the control panel you can go down that menu and add another person 
to the FaceTime call. But when you first double tap on the screen during your 
FaceTime call, only the top controls are visible to the eye or to voice-over. 
If I turn VoiceOver off. It is just possible to push the control panel up to 
reveal the list of options and then turn VoiceOver on again. Surely there must 
be a VoiceOver gesture to move the control panel up to reveal these options? 
Swiping right on the initial four options does not reach those other options 
nor does a three finger swipe up. Any ideas?
Thanks
Harry

Hello all,

This is a very long email, so be prepared, or just go ahead and hit delete.

 

I have to say, I was a huge sceptic concerning the Sonos system.  I was under 
the impression that they were all too expensive.

Then, my wife and I had someone come in from a local audio store to give us an 
estimate and suggestions on how best to get audio in our kitchen and two office 
spaces.

We have a 1923 house that has lath and plaster construction which is difficult 
to deal with if you start talking about cutting holes into the ceiling or 
walls, so I was hoping for either a wired method that could go through the 
floors or something wireless.

After he spent about 30 minutes with us and looking at various options, he came 
down to recommending a Sonos amplifier and 3 remote Sonos One speakers for the 
other rooms.

The amplifier would allow us to keep our current receiver and wired bookshelf 
speakers and have TV sound everywhere, etc.

I might have gone with that except for two things.  They wanted to charge about 
$350 for installation and after consulting with Sieghard from this list, I 
realized that I could do the installation easily with the app and that a Sonos 
sound bar would make more sense for the living room than the amp. 

 

So, we decided to check around for other stores and found that Video Only sells 
Sonos equipment and we’ve had good luck with them in buying our TV and receiver.

Plus, they had the new Sonos Arc sound bar on demo along with the various 
remote speakers.

 

Once we heard the Arc, we were hooked.  

We also decided we don’t need the voice control on the room speakers so went 
with the Sonos One SL speakers, which are the same as the Sonos One’s without 
the microphone and Alexa, etc., and are $20 less per speaker.

We bought 3 Sonos One SL speakers and had them set up pretty easily with the 
Sonos app.

 

I knew I had 30 days to return them if we didn’t like them.

 

Well, if I tell you that after a week, we went back and bought two more so we’d 
have stereo pairs in the kitchen and my office space; you will know that we

Just a thought. Plugging in your iPAD should force it to turn on. That at least 
resolves whether or not it's on presuming no power outage or cable issues. 
After that, it's all about making certain the thing isn't muted or the volume 
is too low. Hit the volume up button a few times. After a moment, hit the side 
button. That should result in some noise. I guess there's always a small chance 
that your iPAD has gotten an update. There's one due out pretty soon. Plugging 
it in and waiting is about the only other thing I can think of presuming you

RE: Supersense, initial impressions

2020-12-07 Thread Mr. Ed
I Richard,

When I read your other email on the pricing. I took it to say it would be $99 a 
year. Is this the way you read it? If that is the case it would be really 
expenseve.  I remember paying about $75 for KNFB as I thought I got it for a 
good price. That app did not pan out very well. I am like you Richard. It seems 
really expensive.

Subject: Supersense, initial impressions

 

I’ve spent the last hour or so running SuperSense through its various modes, 
thanks to Shane’s promo code.

 

in the document mode, Pros: I like the way it prompts you with specific 
messages, like move farther from the document; move an inch to the left, etc.

I like the music while processing, very nice.

The accuracy is very good.

 

Cons: like most OCR apps, it cannot handle columns.  If it did, I would 
possibly buy it.

 

Bar codes, Pros: Very fast.

Cons: it did not recognize a hardback book ISBN while Seeing AI’s product 
channel did.  Otherwise, I think pretty even.

 

Currency, Pros: very fast.

Cons: I was scanning a $10 bill and when I moved the camera sideways, a couple 
times after saying $10, it said $50.

That would be too confusing to someone who did not know or have another money 
identification app to double check with.

 

Explore Mode, Pros: pretty quick and generally accurate.  I could see this 
helping someone in a hotel room find things like light switches, thermostats, 
etc.

Cons: none at this time.

 

Smart Scan, Pros: very fast and pretty accurate.  

Cons: it does not seem any better than Seeing AI’s Short Text mode.

 

Quick Read, Pros: seems very fast.  Also quite accurate.

 

No cons at this time.

 

Overall:  I most certainly would never pay $100 for this app.

I’m doubtful I would even spend $50.

 

If I did not have other apps to get my scanning needs met, I would seriously 
consider spending the $50, but I’m not in need of it right now with the other 
apps I have.

 

I wish it would start each mode in the stopped position rather than immediately 
begin trying to scan.

 

I will keep exploring uses for it and write if I have updates worth while to 
add.

 

 

 

 

 

Richard

RE: Logitech H800 and bluetooth battery showing up on iPhone

2020-11-26 Thread Mr. Ed
Hi Richard,

They must have broken something with the last update. I know before with my 
H800 headset it would give the battery level on the widget. Also in the status 
bar it never showed charge 0. So I am thinking the last update of IOS broke the 
todays battery widget  because it use to work just fine.

Subject: Logitech H800 and bluetooth battery showing up on iPhone

 

When I check my status bar while the h800 headphones are connected, it says 
bluetooth headset connect 0 percent charge. 

This is while I am listening to them, so obviously they are not dead.

I've added the battery widget to the Today screen but it only shows the watch 
and my phone.

Am I missing something, or do these just not show up correctly?

I just looked the Anchor headphones up on Amazon and they look impressive.  
They are around $40 to $45 depending on color.

 

I’ll paste the specifications after the link but I have a question.

Is the battery user replaceable?

All it says is that it is a lithium polymer battery included.

Anker Soundcore Life Q10 at DuckDuckGo

 

Specifications:

Input: DC 5V = 0.65A

Recharge Time: 2H

Playtime: 60H

Impedance: 16Ω

Driver (Full Range): 2 × 40 mm

Frequency Response: 16 Hz - 40 kHz

Range: 15 m / 49.21 ft

 

PS. The high frequency is almost double human hearing which means the highs 
should sound amazingly clear.  I had some Infinity Studio Monitor speakers 
whose high range was 32 KH and they were amazing!

Hi,

I have found the Anker  Soundcore Life Q10  headset to be wonderful! It has 
both Bluetooth and wire capabilities. I use it for both my iPhone and my Dell 
laptop. They are inexpensive, and they have around 60 hours of playtime.

Hi Richard,
When I get a call in and I have my H800 on I can put the button on the headset 
and the sound comes into the headset. If I don't have the headset on and I call 
comes in I can answer it on the iPhone then turn my headset on and it will come 
to the headset. But if I have the headset on and a call comes in and I do a two 
finger tap to answer the call then the sound comes through the speaker on the 
iPhone. 
Not sure about any setting to change it. I think there is one setting to always 
make it go to the headset but I have not tried it.

Hi Ed,
Do you find that answering with an iPhone flips the sound to the speaker rather 
than the headphones?
It seems to me that is kind of common with anything but Apple Bluetooth 
headsets or am I missing a setting?

the USB dongle and my laptop.

I don't like big over-the-ear type headsets and no matter how good, any

This leaves the Bluetooth connection of the H800 free for my iPhone or Amazon

Hi Sieghard,

You can get bigger batteries for the H800. I put a bigger ma battery in and my 
H800 last for eight to ten hours. I think you can get a 400 ma battery or 
higher and it will fit right in the same place that the original battery fits. 
I have seen bigger ma batteries on Ebay and Amazon. Just search for battery for

see. If I do get one it would be the iPhone 12 is my guess at this time.

Sorry, Ed, I'm not worried, the border is still closed and in any case I'm like 
100 years younger than you so I can take whatever you can dish out 

If you are getting an iPhone 12 I'm truly sorry for  you, waste of money, stick 
it out for another year or get something cheaper, you'll regret getting the 12 
next year.

OK, joking aside, I'm sure the iPhone 12 is a nice enough phone, but you are 
paying a higher price for several features which for most people make no 
difference, e.g. 5G, maybe a slightly better camera than you would get on an 
iPhone 11 which again for a blind person makes no difference etc. And if you 
get a 12 Pro or Pro Max you are rreally throwing away money; many rumour 
indicate there is a good chance next year's iPhone will have both Face Id and 
Touch Id, better 5G support and much more. In my opinion the iPhone 12 is a bit 
like the iPhone X, something they had to release but in retrospect an 
in-between sort of phone. You can probably get a much better deal in the next 
week or so on an iPhone 11, it is what I recently upgraded to from my iPhone 8 
and it's amazing simply because the battery is fantastic. On my 2-year old 
iPhone 8 I usually got the 20% low battery warming at around 5 or 6 PM after 
having had it charged to 100% when I left for work between 8 and 9 
AM, my new iPhone 11 with similar usage patterns is usually at around 60 to 70% 
at that same time of the day. Then of course it's a bit snappier and it 
supports all the latest features like screen recognition and so on.

Deb, I was hoping I had saved this message so that I could reply to it. If
you haven't already done so, I would urge you, and anybody else running 14.2
on an older phone,   to contact Apple Accessibility, being that you have
experienced these  extra descriptions  on a phone that does not have the
image description stuff. It may be something about 14.2, and the image
feature, in reality, is not the problem. It will be interesting to know just

and when it’s in there it says if you Flick up or down it’ll say on or off. So 
if you are in some thing that you do not want that to say, just click it off. 
You don’t have to go in it, but you just go to where it says off and you will 
be fine. At least, that is what works for me. Let me know if anyone tries it 
and good luck.

frivolous chatter, which is why this should be configurable, and at least in 
the case of image recognition, Apple’s intent was to make it configurable. 
Therefore, if you’re still hearing this text after you’ve tried to turn off 
settings like image recognition then it should definitely be reported to Apple.

I don’t find it intrusive either; if anything it’s fascinating. I wonder 
whether it’s trying to recognise the icons on whatever screen I’m on.

I haven't really noticed this until people started talking about it.
I've gotten the "sky" information in an icon in the Sirius/XM app. I
have an iPhone 11 with iOS 14.2. Usually I ignore the sky info since
it is not what I'm listening for and extra information. Plus, it does
not seem that intrusive to me, just a short blurb added onto whatever
I'm doing. I can see how it would get annoying though.

Deb, I was hoping I had saved this message so that I could reply to it. If
you haven't already done so, I would urge you, and anybody else running 14.2
on an older phone,   to contact Apple Accessibility, being that you have
experienced these  extra descriptions  on a phone that does not have the
image description stuff. It may be something about 14.2, and the image
feature, in reality, is not the problem. It will be interesting to know just
what it is.

Hi,
The only thing I can say is who knows for sure if this is true. Now days there 
is so much false information posted out there on the net no one knows if it 
true or not. Let's see if it comes up other places. I am not saying it true or 
False but one has to make sure before one can believe it.
