RE: Accessibility Of Ring app

We know nothing about this, and have wondered about it for awhile. If anyone 
would like, you could write and tell us at either 

 

curtis1...@verizon.net or

catwa...@verizon.net  

 

We’d really appreciate any wisdom on this system and all the ins and outs, but 
we don’t want to clog up the list.

 

Thanks ever so much,

Karen

Subject: Accessibility Of Ring app

 

Hi all:

Since Amazon Prime day is almost upon us.. I’m thinking about buying the ring 
pro2 doorbell, and ring floodlights. Is the iOS app for Ring accessible? If not 
accessible, is it usable? Will also do their cloud subscription to offload my 
videos. Any thoughts?

RE: Ring video doorbell

2022-03-29 Thread catwacky via VIPhone
Well, I'm not exactly sure what you're asking because I haven't had any coffee 
yet. But here goes. We have a doorbell set up because we like the ring better 
than the nasty thing that came with the house. This is not a video doorbell, 
but sounds like the doorbells on the old tv shows. Now, I know you can get them 
with several sounds on them, you just choose what you wish to hear. We hooked 
ours up to the electricity, but you can put it on battery and just change that 
whenever. There are also doorbells that you can get and put throughout the 
house so you can hear them well. 

Hope I've helped a bit, but, ya know, it is early.   ;

Karen, I got out in afternoon sunshine, did not have a bit of trouble. The 
phone will give instructions, move head this way and that way, kind of like, 
when entering a fingerprint one, how it had you keep entering a finger print 
again and again. 

They say you don't have to be in bright sun, but I can tell you that, for me, 
it worked, so that is what I would do again with a new phone. 

Also, in settings, there is a setting inside Accessibility or somewhere, where 
you turn off Full Attention, although it should be off with Voiceover on. I 
can't remember exactly about that, but someone else will know exactly what I am

Thanks, Josh. As good as you are with the Victor Stream, even though it has 
buttons, I was sure you'd be a whizz with your phone. 

I'm soon to be 85, but my Dad stayed pretty up to date with electronics right 
up to the end, so I hope I can do OK with them.

Carolyn.  I'm glad you got your face ID to work.  I had no idea you are over 
82.  You seem as if you use the iPhone pretty well.  Congrads to you.  I hear 
from some older people on different lists how they couldn't learn to use an 
iPhone or that it is to hard.  The iPhone is awesome and I really enjoy using 
mine.

I am looking and hoping for a talking instant-read thermometer and cannot find 
one that I trust. I would really love to find an accessible Thermopen 
thermometer, but have never been able to find one or anything comparable.

Thanks for the scale recommendation -- and I'm definitely in your wife's corner!

Hi all,

We have a new grandbaby, and when I get pictures or videos on my phone, I
want to title and save them, but have no idea how to even begin doing this.
I cannot continue depending on my sweet daughter-in-law, besides, she lives
an hour away. So, any ideas about this? Really appreciate it!

 

Karen

Karen, I got out in afternoon sunshine, did not have a bit of trouble. The 
phone will give instructions, move head this way and that way, kind of like, 
when entering a fingerprint one, how it had you keep entering a finger print 
again and again. 

They say you don't have to be in bright sun, but I can tell you that, for me, 
it worked, so that is what I would do again with a new phone. 

Also, in settings, there is a setting inside Accessibility or somewhere, where 
you turn off Full Attention, although it should be off with Voiceover on. I 
can't remember exactly about that, but someone else will know exactly what I am 
talking about.

Hoping accessibility is not too costly.

Subject: Accessible appliances Stove

 

Hi all,

Need a new electric 4 burner stove with oven.  Anyone know if any models are 
accessible with iPhone or if models might speak by itself if settings correctly 
set?

Hoping accessibility is not too costly.

Thanks,

Ann

I think Richard forgot the forward slash in his URL, here it is, it was pretty 
easy to find by simply going to his main website, bringing up a list of all the 
links and looking for the one called Annoying sound in iOS 15 
<https://www.turner42.com/Annoying%20sound%20iOS%2015.mp3> 

 

Anyways, I also replied with my own findings regarding the options under

Those of us who have been using an iDevice for years have learned that from 
time to time, VoiceOver starts mispronouncing certain words for unexplained 
reasons. Whether a word is mispronounced or not is a function of the particular 
word and synthesizer being used. I'm using Samantha enhanced and can confirm 
I'm getting the same pronunciation of smelly you are. And even though VoiceOver 
spoke that word as Shelly, it was spelled s m e l l y.

The last time I ordered from Wendy's there was a button after you choose the 
type of bun that said lettuce.  I thought that meant I wanted lettuce on my 
burger, but when I got the burgers they were wrapped in lettuce, and no bun. 
This was with Uber Eats, and wasn't their fault, it was the way that Wendy's 
produced the menu, as the layout was the same with Door Dash.

Hi, Group.

My niece said that there are certain things that we feel comfortable talking to 
female volunteers about, and asked me whether there is any settings in BE My 
Eyes, when invoked, takes my call to a female volunteer?

So let me ask you if there is any such settings?

Thanks
