RE: The weather channel app

[khevener]

Janet, I don't know about the weather channel app.  But, weatherology is a free 
very accessible app.  There's even a voice that will read the weather forecast 
to you.  It's available in the apple app store.

how’s the weather channel app gotten any more accessible? Can you listen to

RE: problems with voiceover reading the uber screen

[khevener]

I have been able to get my pin with no problem.  I usually catch it when it is 
first spoken.  But, when I miss it, I can find it right near where the trip 
info is given.  I have also found the button for contacting driver.  However, I 
have never used it.  I have had far more difficulty in trying to report a ride 
denial because of having service animal.  I find that process to be quite 
inaccessible.

I was given a loaf of gluten free bread yesterday.  This morning, in a very 
dark kitchen, before sunrise, I wanted to double check the exact type of bread 
for future purchase.  After trying several Bar Code apps and getting an invalid 
Bar Code, I didn't even think about turning the light on, and just used Be My 
Eyes AI to take a picture of the label.
Here is the result:
The picture shows a loaf of bread in a plastic packaging. The packaging has a 
label that reads "New Cascadia Tradition". It is gluten-free Honey Gold 
sandwich bread. The label also mentions that it is whole grain, non-GMO, 
potato-free, dairy-free, nut-free, soy-free, and always gluten-free. The net 
weight is 19.5 oz (553g). The packaging also has a "Certified Gluten-Free" logo 
and a "Certified Paleo" logo. There is also text that says "Visit our cafe!". 
The bread is placed on a countertop with a drawer handle visible at the bottom 
of the picture. The picture is taken in dim light.

I am extremely impressed with this feature of Be My Eyes.

Thanks to Dennis Long for recommending this app.

I have added its details to my web site.  I'm copying what I put on my site 
below which includes the link to the app store.


Weatherology Mobile, LLC., free


I had tried this app some years ago. They have been udpating it, and now it 
works well with VoiceOver, at least for the forecast info. IN the 7.9 version, 
in settings, if you double tap on details instead of the simple forecast, it 
doesn't say selected, but it is. That should be fixed in the next update. Their 
customer support is excellent!

Description from the app store:
The first weather app that fully integrates into your home and car with 
real-time audio weather reports and emergency weather notifications; 
personalized for you.
We take weather to another level.
Our patented technology delivers real-time audio weather reports to your 
location.
It's voice-activated: Ask Weatherology for the latest forecast.
At home. In your car. On your phone.
It's real-time. With up-to-the-minute weather updates including the latest 
watches, warnings, advisories, and bulletins. We alert you with relevant 
weather notifications to keep you informed.
It's real people, not voice simulation: Select your favorite weather talent, 
and they provide real-time weather reports on demand.
It's accurate and personalized for your location.
The technology is new, but the Weatherology team has been around for 34 years. 
We have contributed to more award-winning local weather broadcasts than our 
largest competitors combined.
Apple CarPlay audio apps must be voice-activated and offer audio capabilities 
only, which is exactly what our app does. With the exception of navigation 
apps, content such as weather maps and radar are currently prohibited from 
being displayed as content on the dashboard. We are fo­cused on cre­at­ing the 
best hands-free audio ex­pe­ri­ence in ve­hi­cles in ac­cor­dance with Apple 
Car­Play guide­lines.
Although our expertise is audio, we are meteorologists, so we offer all the 
tools you need to stay informed. Up-to-the-minute radar that loads quickly and 
zooms in to your specific location. Storm vectors that illustrate current storm 
location and storm movement.
We offer current weather advisory graphics with up-to-the-minute audio weather 
details for each bulletin.
Hourly and 7-day forecast displays.
Weather conditions from around the world.
With Apple CarPlay, Weatherology provides a hands-free, safe way to get the

At home, have a real meteorologist provide your forecast with details for your 
location unmatched by synthetic voices currently available through Smart 
Speakers.
Automobile safety is priority number one and our app is the only weather app 
that discourages distractions in your vehicle.

As of version 7.9, the Forecasts are fully accessible with VoiceOver. The app 
will continue to improve VoiceOver accessibility across the app.

RE: Uber Question, Leaving A Custom Tip

Then tell the drivers you would love to leave a tip, but a recent Uver update 
has made the option inaccessible for Voiceover users. Give them 5 Stars and 
also put this tip thing in the review if you can still add a custom message. I 
imagine if drivers start to complain that blind passengers can't leave a tip 
Uber might fix it pretty quick.

RE: accessing screen shots on iPhone and then making them readable by sighted folks

[khevener]

My experience here, especially with Lyft,  is that the driver cancels and there 
is no record of the trip.  They really make it look as though it never 
happened.  I did discover that apparently Uber does have some record of trip.  
Thanks for help.  I think I have gotten as close as I can to accessing these 
shots.

Sorry, forgot we are talking iPhone and not computer. There is no maximizing of 
screens on the iPhone, 

Also, just as a suggestion, if you are using the screenshots that specifically 
for Lyft and Uber, it's always good to mention this in the first place so you 
get relevant responses. Just curious though, if you book a ride with Lyft or 
Uber, you already have a record of it in the app even if the driver cancels. 
When this happened to me once in Calgary I had no issues getting a refund, I 
had ordered the ride and a few minutes prior to arrival I texted the driver 
that I was blind and had a guide dog and to please alert me when he arrived. 
Seconds later the driver cancelled the trip which obviously was because he now 
found out I had a dog and didn't want to deal with that. I contacted Uber and 
explained it and I got a refund as well as an apology and a promise that they 
would take this up with the driver.

 

 

Best regards,

Sieghard

A screenshot takes a picture of exactly what is on your screen. If the font is 
super small then it will be so in the screenshot.

Best thing is to make sure your page is maximized and if you are taking a 
screenshot of a web page, make sure it is set to 100% zoom, Control + NumPad 
Minus and Plus are the keyboard shortcuts for zooming in and out.

If you open the Photos app and tap on the Library tab along the bottom, you can 
then find "Screenshots" as a album or whatever you want to call it.

This contains all your screenshots. 

I am not sure what you mean by "making them accessible to sighted people", any 
sighted person can see the screenshot so there isn't really anything you have 
to "make accessible".

A screenshot takes a picture of exactly what is on your screen. If the font is 
super small then it will be so in the screenshot.

Best thing is to make sure your page is maximized and if you are taking a 
screenshot of a web page, make sure it is set to 100% zoom, Control + NumPad 
Minus and Plus are the keyboard shortcuts for zooming in and out.

A while back, I sent one to a friend and she said the print was so small, she 
could barely read it.  Fortunately, she had a way to enlarge it.  But, if I 
ever need to send these to someone who does not have that ability, it would be 
helpful for me to know how to make the img file bigger.

If you open the Photos app and tap on the Library tab along the bottom, you can 
then find "Screenshots" as a album or whatever you want to call it.

This contains all your screenshots. 

I am not sure what you mean by "making them accessible to sighted people", any 
sighted person can see the screenshot so there isn't really anything you have 
to "make accessible".

Can someone give me step by step instructions on finding screen shots taken 
with iPhone and then how to make them accessible to sighted people.  I have not 
changed any of the default settings on my phone.  I have tried finding them by 
going in to the camera which is where I think I see some of them.  I just can’t 
seem to see the whole screenshot.  I also tried going to library and found that 
confusing as well.  In some instances I find options to zoom or zoom out.  What 
do these mean?  Do they make a difference in how the shot is spoken or viewed?  
Thanks for your help.  As you can see, my picture taking knowledge is limited.

Hi.

I'm also a licensed ham, and used to have Echo Link. I could see a problem 
trying to use it as a walkie talkie app, and it's the latency. Unless Echo Link 
has improved since I used it, sometimes there could be at least a 10 second 
delay from when a station started talking and when the other heard what was 
said.

Maybe this has changed.

being a real radio nut as well, that is what I would very probably also do. 
if you don't want to go through all the hassle of getting that licence however, 
there are sets that are licence free, such as CB sets, those on the 49MHZ band, 
and those on the 446MHZ band.
not sure if there are any regulations about using such sets in airports 
however, and you wouldn't get the echolink app access either.

Hello Everyone,

Earlier this weekend I and a friend were up in the San Francisco airport 
waiting on a flight back to Los Angeles.

As we had quite a bit of time before our flight, we decided to explore the 
airport, separately, and meet back at the gate after a While.

I thought this would be a great opportunity to actually use the Walkie Talkie 
app on our Apple Watches to stay in touch.

It didn't work as well as I had hoped.  For one thing, there were so many 
people crowded in the airport that I couldn't hear the speaker on the watch 
when she tried to reach me.  Add the ambient noise of all the people, coupled 
with the endless and continuous flight announcements, and, for me, at least, it 
was an impossible situation.  I had to hold my wrist against my ear and I felt 
silly doing it and my arm got tired, very quickly.

Second, when I tried to use my Airpods to connect directly to the watch???
Well, let's just say that my VoiceOver / Walkie Talkie app experience was not a 
good one.

Although I have used the walkie talkie app many, many times, when at home, this 
was the first time I had tried using it out in the wild, as it were.

She told me that she could not hear me on her watch, either, for the same 
reason.  Now she has quote, normal, quote hearing, relative to mine; so I know 
that the problem was not completely owing to my poor hearing.

So, the question:

Can you recommend a simple push-to-talk walkie talkie app that will work on 
iPhone?

When I search the app store I see so many but really have no idea of which one 
is best for VoiceOver users.

Now I just want a simple app that works as much like the walkie talkie app on 
the watch but, of course, works on the phone.

I read, somewhere, that Microsoft Team has a pretty good walkie talkie app 
feature but I'm not certain if it will work in a non-enterprise scenario, 
between only 2 people.

Just so you know, we ended up using text messages to stay in contact in the 
airport but it would have been nice to use a more direct voice interface.

All replies greatly appreciated.

Mark

When you purchase Sd cards larger then 32 gigs, they are already formatted as 
x-fat, so the third gen stream can read them automatically.

Does the vs3 automatically format in xfat?  Or, is 32fat more common?  Can 
computers running windows 10 read SD cards in either format?  Thanks

No Lana, it does not.  However, just remember, that your new SD card in the 
third gen stream is in xfat format, while the SD card in a second gen stream 
must be formatted as fat32.  If someone wanted to use a large capacity SD card 
in both the second gen stream, or the third gen stream, they must first make 
sure their SD card is formatted as fat32.

It comes on your iPhone by default. I have it on my iPhone, and I never had to 
install it. I did find the following article, which does have a suggestion to 
reinstall your Weather app from the App Store, so if you can’t find it on your 
phone at all, you may need to reinstall it from the App Store. The article with 
more information is at How to Fix iPhone Weather App Not Working? Here Are

One way to get to it is to do a three finger swipe right from the last home 
screen. This will bring up the app library. There’s a search box at the top of 
the screen and flicking up with three fingers will give you an alphabetized 
list.

hi,

 

Apple purchased Dark Sky years ago. the built-in iOS weather app got a major 
update with iOS thirteen, in which it ganed much better functionality. it works 
well. I have another weather app, Weathergods, which works well. it has savare 
storm threats, andf the neet thing about it is it has the ability for you to 
hear the weather. the sounds it has have a tutorial to know what they all mean. 
it works well with VoiceOver, and the developer is extreamly responsive to 
requests posted on AppleVis  for VoiceOver feedback and suggestions. 
WeatherOffice is also quire good. I don’t use it much, but i bought it to test 
it out, and it is good.

RE: Uber has gotten ugly

[khevener]

Interesting, I have had the same problem.  I typically use Lyft, but was taking 
advantage of a promo with Uber.  My home address for rides was different than 
my home address for eats.  I changed the rides one, but it never saved it.  So, 
will likely cancel the 3 month free membership promo.

Subject: Uber has gotten ugly 

 

somehow after a week my Uber has changed. when I open "where to" It no longer 
shows my home address in the pickup field. I have more than twelve saved places 
but it only shows five and they are ones I haven't gone to in months. yesterday 
I was going to my daughter's house and it would not accept her address. When I 
entered the same information on my wife's iPhone it took it with no problem.

Note: I did discover that in the Activities tab it showed previous trips I 
could rebook. When I double tapped the bowling alley that I go to weekly 
everything was correct but my home address.

RE: Ciri Responding Oddly When Asked to Call Someone

I find that happens if I run the command together.  I have found that if I say 
call, then pause for a second or two before telling it who to call, things work

Subject: Ciri Responding Oddly When Asked to Call Someone 

 

Hello,

 

I have an IPhone 8 & am current on IOS.  Ever since updating IOS, I frequently 
get an odd response when I ask Ciri to call someone in my contacts list.  I 
will say call person X & she will say what do you want to know about person X.  
This may happen several times before I give up & open the contact to tap on the 
phone # to call them.  Even funnier, I have a sister-in-law named Mickie who is 
on my VIP contact list & is my ICE contact.  Today when I asked Ciri to call 
her I got a web site telling me who Mickey Mouse was.  This happened a couple 
of times.  I obviously have tried speaking very clearly to no avail.  It is not 
the end of the world to have to open the contacts to make a call but I’d rather 
have the convenience of just saying call person.  Is anyone else having this 
problem?

 

Thanks,

Sherry Wells

RE: Swimming with an Apple watch

[khevener]

This subject really intrigues me as I do like to swim laps along with various 
water aerobics stuff.  All I have is an Iphone se2.  Obviously I would need an 
apple watch.  What model could I get by with?  Also, where do you find the 
water workouts?  What kind of information do you get with the ap on your watch? 
 Could I do it by keeping my iphone on deck and looking at it when I finish 
each set?

I swim with my watch.  Yes, you will want to activate the pool swim workout. 
You have to choose the yardage of your pool, and once you do that, there will 
be a screen that describes what happens to the touchscreen and that it is 
disabled. Don’t do like I did and start swimming before you click OK on the 
screen, because the work out will not begin and the touchscreen will not be 
locked. Water lock is automatically turned on when you start this workout type. 
I’m running a new model, so I’m not sure about how to take the water lock off. 
It used to be that you would turn the crown to turn the water lock off after 
the work out. However, I think now you just hold down the crown and water lock 
will be turned off once you finish the work out.

If so, I have a couple questions because I am going to finally get an

I have the series 6, Wi-Fi model.  NO Cellular..

Do I need to do anything in particular to lock the watch or anything before 
getting in the water?

I checked out the workouts and the pool swimming looks like what I would use.  

Any tips from people who have done this would be appreciated.

I won’t have my phone on me, of course, will that matter?

RE: NFL audio

[khevener]

It’s hard to know, but certainly think they would have to listen.  I am a bit 
perplexed as to why ACB and/or NFB haven’t taken up the issue.  I thought their 
involvement was what made the mlb programming accessible.

In short, no.

SiriusXM is still the most reliable way to get NFL broadcasts.

They do not have archives of games though, which some people want.

RE: NFL audio on the iPhone

[khevener]

Kevin, that’s my understanding as well.  If you have ever called a talk show 
and they put u on hold, you will typically hear that what is coming from your 
radio is delayed a few seconds from what you hear through your headset.  Seems 
like the delay happened shortly after janet jackson’s wardrobe malfunction 
during the superbowl some years back.

Hi.

 

I remember going to a college basketball game a few years ago. I thought it 
would be nice to take a radio with me to keep up with the action. It didn’t 
work. There was about a fifteen second delay between the action and what was 
heard on commercial radio. I wasn’t sure why, but this wasn’t an internet 
stream. I heard the possible reason why this was done, and it’s to protect the 
network from the FCC. If some unwanted words were said, with the way things 
are, it can be bleeped out, thanks to that delay. It’s why there’s a few second 
delay with talk shows.

 

This is what I remember hearing.

 

Have a blessed day and don’t work too hard.

An Explanation For the Delay In Radio Streaming

*   Link to the source is at the end.
*

We are going to try to explain the delay experienced in internet radio 
streaming. The audio can be up to five minutes behind what comes out of the 
original streaming source. For example, I hear the audio on my monitor speakers 
in my home radio studio. I turn on a mobile device, internet radio or Bose Wave 
radio in another room and the audio is about a minute or two or three behind 
what's coming from the studio audio source. We will try to explain a reason 
why. The following information was obtained from Quora.com.

The most noticeable difference between a radio station's broadcast signal and 
its corresponding Internet stream or Internet only radio stations is a 
significant delay. The same program is likely to come out of your computer 
speakers as much as five minutes later than it comes out of your radio. 
Surprisingly, technology accounts for only about 5% of the lag. The other 95% 
is a result of arguments over paychecks. (Disclaimer: those numbers were 
entirely made up.)

LATENCY: a billion little traffic jams

When I play a song on my radio station, it zooms out to every nearby radio at 
the speed of light. But online, delivery is restricted to the speed of Internet 
— a relatively pokey journey that starts when my song gets converted into a 
package of networthy digits. That conversion takes a fraction of a second. 
Before it gets to your iPad, my song will pass through scores of other network 
devices that each hold it for additional fractions of seconds. And those tiny 
delays start to pile up.

My favorite demonstration for guests: I can talk into my studio mic, which is 
live on the radio — then turn on an Internet feed and hear what I just said 
sixty seconds earlier. In that amount of time, my radio voice has gone halfway 
to Mars, while my Internet voice has only made a round-trip to Cincinnati by 
way of Mountain View.

The world's most expensive machine is slower than light, and slightly faster 
than yelling.

UNIONS: pay or don’t play

The biggest source of audio delay has nothing to do with technology, and 
everything to do with paychecks. Traditionally, when actors were hired to be in 
a commercial, the amount of money they got paid was roughly proportional to the 
number of people the commercial was expected to reach. Small towns paid small 
fees; national ad campaigns had big budgets and paid the fattest fees. 
Voiceover artists and their agents dreamed of working up to big juicy global 
endorsements.

Around the turn of the century, these actors had a wake-up call. Radio stations 
were starting to put their shows on the Internet. Commercials that had been 
created for single mid-sized cities were suddenly being played across the 
country. But the actors weren't getting the big national-spot fees their union 
had negotiated! Contracts were being violated. Lawsuits were threatened.

And radio stations knew they had a losing hand in this game. The law said that 
the union performers were owed much more money if their voices were broadly 
distributed. And where would that money come from? No station had yet figured 
out how to make a dime out of streaming radio.

The solution was one software upgrade away. Stations were already using 
computers to control playback of their audio. Developers created a feature that 
split the programming into two or more feeds. One would go to the broadcast 
transmitter, as

I wonder if this will be accessible. I didn’t find the NFL Game Pass 
accessible. It was so bad, and the NFL Game Pass Support didn’t care that there 
app wasn’t accessible, so I went as far as submitting a complaint to the DoJ 
under the ADA. The DoJ thanked me for filing a complaint and said they’d keep 
it in the records in case they ever decided to take any action against the NFL. 
I recently got a response to my support ticket asking if there was anything 
else they could do, but I said that between TuneIn carrying the games and my 
complaint to the DoJ, I was good.

This price is a lot cheaper then it used to be when you had to shell out $99 a 
year to get access to the radio broadcasts, but it’s still quite a bit more 
expensive than the NBA where you get all of the radio broadcasts for the entire 
season for $10.

Yes, one needs to be a premium subscriber for NFL games on Tune-IN. I will 
subscribe because of the college football games as well. For those of you who 
may want to listen to Michigan State University football and/or basketball 
games you can go to the WJR app and listen there without paying a fee, at least 
that is the way it was last year.

Hi all, 

 

I'm a tuneIn subscriber. I suspect you're right about tuneIn carrying the NFL. 
But I also suspect that you'll have to be a premium subscriber to take 
advantage of this service. We'll know soon when the pre-season games begin.

 

Peace & Blessings,

Hmm, I have a few questions about this.

I wonder if TuneIn will still be carrying the  radio broadcasts of the NFL 
games.

I wonder if this will be accessible. I didn’t find the NFL Game Pass 
accessible. It was so bad, and the NFL Game Pass Support didn’t care that there 
app wasn’t accessible, so I went as far as submitting a complaint to the DoJ 
under the ADA. The DoJ thanked me for filing a complaint and said they’d keep 
it in the records in case they ever decided to take any action against the NFL. 
I recently got a response to my support ticket asking if there was anything 
else they could do, but I said that between TuneIn carrying the games and my 
complaint to the DoJ, I was good.

This price is a lot cheaper then it used to be when you had to shell out $99 a 
year to get access to the radio broadcasts, but it’s still quite a bit more 
expensive than the NBA where you get all of the radio broadcasts for the entire 
season for $10.

You could have also closed an app by flicking up or down to get to the close 
option and then double tapping. The close option will continue to be selected, 
so you can just double tap on an app to close it until you flick up or down to 
switch to the action option. I'm not saying you did this though.

The best thing about a camera alert system, is that you can set it for motion 
alert, and if a delivery man does not ring the bell, at least you can check the 
door to get your package.

 

I have found the mailman will not ring the bell when they deliver a package to 
the door, so the motion alert feature works great in that circumstance.

[khevener]

I am looking in to that as well.  I would like to find one that can be wired in 
rather than depending on batteries.  The issue with battery operated devices is 
that some of them involve unscrewing little screws to get tat the batteries.  
Because of medical issues with my hands, I am not able to do that task 
independently, and it might be a couple days before I find someone who can 
help.

I am looking for a two way intercom/doorbell system that is wired.  I really 
could care less about the video.  Here is what I need it to do.  When someone 
rings my doorbell, Ineed to hear the ring on my phone alexa, indoor speaker or 
whatever.  I then need to be able to talk to the person who rang my bell to 
find out if I want to let them in.  I would like the system to be wired so I 
don’t have to deal with changing batteries.  I thought blink app was my answer. 
 However, I have never been able to hear the doorbell on either my phone or 
alexa.  Spoke with both amazon and blink tech suport and am quite discouraged.  
According to them, I have to enable video and will then only get a visual 
notification (picture) of someone at my door.  Can anyone suggest something 
that will work for me?  Or, if you know that blink is accessible, can u help me 
make it work?  Thanks.

RE: ring, blink, or something altogether different

[khevener]

Sieghard, what you are saying is exactly what I am trying to avoid.  I have 
definitely decided to send my blink unit back as it appears that to many things 
have to happen before I can find out whois at my door, the only thing I really 
wanted to know.  Smile!!

Hi Sarah,

 

The ring app is quite accessible, we have a Ring Pro video doorbell and a 
stick-up cam pointing into our backyard, but just wait until you actually get 
into situations when somebody rings the doorbell, you get a notification on 
your phone and have to try to act on it. I still don’t know why Ring makes it 
so difficult and complicated to answer a press of the doorbell, it should be 
like a phone call, you get the notification and you tap an “Answer” button 
which immediately connects you to your doorbell, activates the microphone and 
speaker and you can start talking. Unfortunately it is not that way and more 
often than not the person at my door has gone away by the time I finally 
connect.

 

And then of course don’t get me started on Alexa, Amazon owns Ring so one would 
think it should be super easy to answer a doorbell button press with Alexa, but 
once again it is not unless I am missing something. If Alexa plays a 
notification on my Echo Show why can’t I say “Answer the doorbell” or “Talk to 
my front door” or “Connect me to my doorbell”, really one would think that just 
about anything should work, but it is very specific and finnicky.

Try a three finger double tap to toggle speech on.

 

You should hear it say, speech on.  If it says speech off, then speech was 
already on and you may have to try getting VoiceOver reading and tapping the up 
volume button until you hear something.

 

Your volume may have gotten turned down too far.

 

Make sure under Settings, Sounds and Haptics, that change with buttons is off.

I can not tell what is on my screen.  Siri says voice over is on.  Speech is on 
according to my braille display.  However, when I move left and right or 
up/down, nothing is spoken.  I powered off and back on.  No change.  When on 
the phone, I could hear info being spoken.  But, as soon as the call ends, I’m 
back to nothing.  At most, I was able to hear it say lisen button and settings 
heading.  I hope I have given u enough info to help .  

 

Btw, I called apple accessibility.  The rep really could not help.  When I 
suggested she transfer me to her supervisor, she said that she was a supervisor 
and there was no one above her.

RE: trouble accessing screen on iPhone se 2020 using voice over

[khevener]

Richard, you are a true genius!!!  The “change with” button was off.  Because I 
could hear what siri was saying, hear the phone ringing, and hear conversations 
okay, I thought my volume was okay.  Good lesson and thank you so much for your 
help.  You knew far more than the apple accessibility rep did.

Try a three finger double tap to toggle speech on.

 

You should hear it say, speech on.  If it says speech off, then speech was 
already on and you may have to try getting VoiceOver reading and tapping the up 
volume button until you hear something.

 

Your volume may have gotten turned down too far.

 

Make sure under Settings, Sounds and Haptics, that change with buttons is off.

I can not tell what is on my screen.  Siri says voice over is on.  Speech is on 
according to my braille display.  However, when I move left and right or 
up/down, nothing is spoken.  I powered off and back on.  No change.  When on 
the phone, I could hear info being spoken.  But, as soon as the call ends, I’m 
back to nothing.  At most, I was able to hear it say lisen button and settings

Btw, I called apple accessibility.  The rep really could not help.  When I 
suggested she transfer me to her supervisor, she said that she was a supervisor 
and there was no one above her.

Greetings all,

A note from the developer of the Qatari Money Reader, please read.

 

 

Hello Richard

 

Thank you for sharing the app and glad to hear users find it helpful.

 

Well I think there is a way to add all wanted features by motivating users to 
download the app and share five reviews stars with their feedback/comments 
about what they are looking to be added into the app, like any currencies or 
extra features so I can take these comments forward to the investors to support 
adding these additional features and currencies as this is the same approach we 
did last time.

 

One of the promising feature we would like to add to perform image processing 
for ATM machine and card machine which will allow the app to scan the screen of 
both ATM machine to verify the withdraw amount and when want to pay with card 
to verify the amount wants to pay for in any shop but in terms of development 
something like that we need to raise fund.

 

Happy to share my email as well with the users.

 

Best

Anwar

Please give them 5 star reviews and make your requests known.  This is a rare 
opportunity I think to influence the development of an app.

The object identification for the Echo Show is very slow and that's probably 
because you need to know where you are standing for the camera to get the best 
view. I didn't find it useful. My original Echo which is round with no screen 
works great. The ones with screens miss a lot but I can't say if that is more 
due to my internet or that they are far from fool proof. For the most part, I 
love having them and use mine each day. If you don't need a screen for any 
reason, don't bother buying the more expensive ones. Read the specs for each 
device so you know what you are paying for. I bought an Echo 5 inch screenn one 
for something like $33 a year or so ago for a friend,  and she loves it. I can 
ask her to check in on my dog while I am away if I have any concerns. Amazon 
had all kinds of promotional stuff when I bought my Echo 5 with a little screen 
and my Echo 10 and between a sale price and a promotional extra many dollars 
off, I got a great deal on all of them.

the third generation has much better sound quality.  It also has tactil markers 
for all controls.  I also tried the echo show 2.  It has a camera and even 
better sound quality that the echo dot.  A friend who has significant hearing 
loss got it.  It claims to identify product labels, etc.  I found it much more 
difficult to set up than the echo dot.  For whatever reason, I had trouble 
getting it to tell me what various things were.  Maybe I did not give it enough

The Echo Dot can be had for less than $50 and is worth a try. You’ll probably 
have to set it up through the Alexa app on your phone and you’ll need an amazon 
account to link it to. Once set up, it should be fairly straight forward to 
use. If it doesn’t work out, You can probably return it to amazon.

Hi all,

 

I recall seeing a fairly extensive discussion about these and other devices but 
didn't pay much attention then because I didn't need one for myself.  I still 
do not need one for myself but my Mom who is 89 this year and is not very tech 
savvied has lost almost all of her sight and doesn't want to use VO or talkback 
on her phone.  I am thinking of getting one of these because after demoing 
giving voice commands to my Iphone she is now interested in doing something 
similar but not to her phone.  Her occupational therapist has convinced her 
that devices like echos and echo dots are more accurate and would work better 
for her.  She says this is based on her experience as an OT. 

 

My question is this, which devices seem the most forgiving for less than 
perfect speech when giving voice commands?  We also do not want to spend a ton 
of money in case this doesn't work out well for her.

 

Any thoughts/ideas greatly appreciated.

Interesting, I have never seen the xx more control in that app.  I typically

accessability number and place the order by phone.

I think the app itself isn’t all that usable.  I was ordering with my sighted 
daughter the other day and she was also having difficulty finding and adding 
things.

 

What I have found is that if you click on the XX more .. that seems to work a 
little better.

 

I keep meaning to go out and rate the app and point some of this stuff out ..

HI Pam,

 

This app has had its accessibility problems for a long time.

 

I also have an iPhone 8 and I can reorder items but I can’t buy anything new. 
I’ve had the same experience just last night; tried to add 2 cookies to my cart 
from McDonalds and when I double tap on the item it doesn’t go anywhere. 

 

When I went into my cart they asked if I wanted to add anything and 2 cookies 
just happened to be on the list of things you could add and this time it worked.

Has anyone had success ordering from DoorDash recently?  It seems this app is 
very hit or miss as far as accessibility.

 

When trying to flick through the available items, focus jumps to other places 
on the list.  Also, if I do land on an item I want, double tapping it to choose 
it seems to do nothing.

 

I have an iPhone 8, so this is not the issue with the screen describe feature 
(if that is the correct name).

 

Any tips would be helpful.

And, yes, I like the home button.  As for face ID, touch screen and pass codes

so I just put in another request they fix because of that. The person

Hi Joe, 

It is a one time fee. If you want all of its features, I think it is around 
$39.00 which includes the third party keyboard capability.

I have not used the braille screen input enough to be able to detail the 
differences in gestures since I was using MBraille before Apple improved the 
braille screen input.

But, here is the link to the help file where you can read through all of 
MBraille's features.

I really like the "dot commands" which are commands you can do in the stand 
alone app to then initiate an action in another app, like perfecting a note, 
then writing in braille on the last line, the period followed by sms and the 
person's name or phone number, and it launches the messages app with your text 
ready to just hit the send button.

Anyway, here is the link:

That makes sense. But can you get into a little more detail? Are the
gestures different? Is the recognition smoother? Faster? Also, was
this the app that charges a subscription fee? I’d rather pay a lump
sum than a recurring charge, but if there is something about it that
warrants the cost, I’m open to being convinced. Thank you in advance
for indulging my curiosity.

I am replying with MBraille as a third party keyboard.

It has had that capacity for a long time.

I like it better than the built-in braille screen input partly because you

select it when you need it and you don't have to deal with the rotor.

His approach has been the best braille app I've used.

He keeps it updated and you can elect to use UEB or not.

HTH,

Hi,

 

I saw mention of MBraille in the AppleVis newsletter. I had no idea

this was now accessible as a third party keyboard. Can someone tell me

the difference between this Mbraille app and the Braille input already

supplied with iOS? I don’t mind financially supporting third party

developers, especially those expanding Braille literacy, but I want to

know exactly what I’m getting into.

Hi,
I’m using a Braille Sense U2 with an iphone 8 running IOS 13.1.3 and I’m really 
disgusted with how this combination is working, particularly when it comes to 
doing any kind of lengthy text editing. Cursor routing becomes erratic. 
Voiceover can slow down and crash. It’s just awful. I could go into detail, but 
VO will probably give me trouble while I do so. Anybody else out there having 
trouble with Braille displays in IOs 13?

RE: making the at sign in braille

[khevener]

Hi, just wanted to thank everyone who gave me ideas on making the "at" sign in 
braille.  Using a braille keyboard, I discovered that I could use dot 4 
followed by dot 2.  I was using ueb braille.  I found that this worked when 
filling in an email field.  Don't know if it would have worked in other braille 
codes or not.

It's a dot 4, or a shift+2 on the qwerty keyboard.

RE: Voicedream scanner questions

Terri, I think this scanner is well worth the money.  Like Richard, I wish it 
could read columns.  As it stands now, I use it to check mail.  Even though I 
may not get everything, I definitely get enough to know if the mail is junk or 
needs more serious attention.  I like the speed and the tone to help you align 
the page for accurate scan.  I also like the fact that you do not have to worry 
at lighting in your room, as the scanner adjusts lighting.

In my opinion, it is the best OCR app you could buy. 

My only wish is that it could handle columns.

But, if it is text in paragraph format, it is brilliant.

If you also have Voice Dream Reader, you could put the PDF in it, and then it 
would use Voice Dream Scanner to recognize the document.

I've not tried to open a PDF from the web directly with Voice Dream Scanner 
though if it showed up in the share sheet, that would work.

RE: connecting braille sense polaris to iphone via bluetooth

[khevener]

Richard, I have not really paid close attention to whether phone is locked or 
unlocked.  Does the unit just need to be on or do I have to be in terminal mode 
first?  I often leave display on, even though it may be in sleep mode.  Thanks 
for your help.

Subject: Re: connecting braille sense polaris to iphone via bluetooth

 

With all braille displays, the sequence used when connecting or disconnecting 
is critical. 

Basically, your display should be on when you either lock or unlock your iPhone.

then, they should reconnect automatically.

If you, for example, turn off your braille display while the phone is unlocked, 
there is a very good chance you will have to forget it and pair it again the 
next time.

So, when you want to use the braille device with your phone, turn it on while 
the phone is locked, then unlock the phone.

It may take a few seconds, but they should connect easily.

When you are done, lock the phone first, then turn off the display.

My Orbit Reader 20 connects flawlessly this way.

So a device costing nearly 10 times that should work as well.

 

Richard 

 

Always look out for #1, and be careful not to step in #2.

Yeah, I did read some of the articles about 80 percent not being so good. 
However, since my sister doesn't drive and we aren't near an Apple store,

shipping both ways, and paid for the replacement, I may as well try to see if I

about six weeks now to get my brother to go to AT to get the SIM exchanged, 
but he just doesn't get in any hurry. But maybe I'll see if they still have any

Hello listers,

My Plantronics voyager edge is in need of replacement because its battery is
no longer holding a full charge. This has been one of my all-time favorite
Bluetooth earpieces so I'm looking for a replacement. Has Plantronics come
up with a newer model or is the voyager edge still the latest version of

RE: ios13.1.1 the bugs

[khevener]

My understanding is that humanware would no longer be updating the apex, 
especially now that the are using the android system with braillenote touch and 
touch plus.

Davie,

Has Apex had any firmware updates?

I have not handle one for several years.

If Humanware hasn't kept it updated, it could be an issue with the older 
hardware/bluetooth.

Or, it could be a What's App issue.

I don't use that app.

Always look out for #1, and be careful not to step in #2.

Hi! Folks:

Concerning the bugs in this iOS 13.1.1 update. Is there any problem concerning 
the loss of power with the battery supply for the iPhone, or any other mobile 
phone when downloading this new update. I need to know for sure so that I can 
be aware of it. So far all the updates for me have not been any problem. But 
having a good battery supply, And a long lasting battery life while using my 
iPhone is in the Cecily for me. I cannot afford to keep plugging this thing in 
all day long as it would impede tasks that I need to do and information that I 
need to collect while away from my computer.

I would appreciate anybody on the list letting me know specifically what the 
situation is.

Thank you all in advance.

 

Regards!

Hi folks 

 

I must say: ios13.1.1 is not a disaster. I can work and live with it but for 
those that are in doubt whether to update or not I should say: wait wait wait.

2 major bugs 

First, the notification center is a mess like I said and Apple refuses to take 
steps to examine those bugs while there were 4 beta rounds in which blinds have 
reported these issues without any correction.

Second: there are still severe braille bugs with editing text with a brail 
display. After typing ca 30 seconds or 1 minute, voiceover stops giving 
feedback.

Regards

Davy
