Removing apps from the app switcher [was "RE: 2 separate questions regarding Voicedream"]
I'm probably one of those where people think I discourage removing things from the app switcher, but this isn't exactly true. If you're having trouble with your iPhone, removing apps from the app switcher is absolutely something you should do. There's also nothing wrong with removing apps from the app switcher other than just making things a bit more inconvenient for yourself, so if this is something you want to do then by all means go ahead. My only point is that IOS has a lot of memory management code built into the operating system, so take advantage of it. Don't try to out smart IOS by constantly removing an app as soon as your finished with it. This will make things a bit more inconvenient for you and may use up a bit more battery if you're constantly opening and closing the same app. For my part, I do periodically go in and clean out my app switcher, even if I'm not having any issues with my phone. I'll also close down an app if it's one I just use very infrequently, like Venmo, Safari, Outlook, ... For apps that I use pretty much every day, like BARD, Messages, Netflix or Prime, Bible, Kindle, ..., then I'll just leave these running until I feel the need to do some house cleaning. -- Christopher (AKA CJ) Chaltain at Outlook > -Original Message- > From: viphone@googlegroups.com On Behalf > Of Dana Leet > Sent: Sunday, February 14, 2021 4:09 AM > To: viphone@googlegroups.com > Subject: Re: 2 separate questions regarding Voicedream > > > I also find, that if I am having difficulties with voice stream taking things > out of > the app switcher does help.

RE: 2 separate questions regarding Voicedream
Maybe this will help Joshua, Open the filter for folders, and select all folders, then double tap the add button and you can create your own folder. Remember, there is only ever one copy of a book but it can be listed in multiple places like all folders, unread, no folder, or a custom folder.

Hi Richard. I'll have to check out the sort feature. I kind of forgot how to make my own folders. I'll look into this. Thanks for the tip.

RE: 2 separate questions regarding Voicedream
Joshua, Have you explored the sort feature at the bottom of your folders? I tend to use the manual sort if things are not in the order I want, like for our book group, I load the books into that folder and then rearrange them according to the order we will be reading in. If a book series was properly formatted so that the titles would be in order, the sort by title function might help.

Re: 2 separate questions regarding Voicedream
I also find, that if I am having difficulties with voice stream taking things out of the app switcher does help. Everyone will think I am kind of silly, but I actually have a separate phone that I use instead of an iPad where I have read all of my books though so I don’t have to worry about interruptions on my main phone. I’ve also found that with my new sound bar it’s amazing because I can actually Bluetooth my phone in and listen to my books audio or synthesized and read to me over the surroundsound. Quite awesome. Attention anyone who loves to read, I have two groups on WhatsApp messenger, one for discussing all types of books, and one for discussing all Christian books. If you are a Christian lady who would like fellowship with other awesome ladies I also have a group for you, and for those who love fragrances we have a group to discuss fragrances and wax melts as well.

I agree with Richard. I've noticed that when I'm using voice dream reader, it works better if I close all apps and just use voice dream reader.

Re: 2 separate questions regarding Voicedream
In the almost 11 years now of using apple devices, and teaching the devices, there has always come a time when clearing the app switcher solved a problem when nothing else would. I'm not saying anyone has to do that, just stating my experience. Richard "You know," said Arthur, "it's at times like this, when I'm trapped in a Vogon airlock with a man from Betelgeuse, and about to die of asphyxiation in deep space, that I really wish I'd listened to what my mother told me when I was young." "Why, what did she tell you?" "I don't know, I didn't listen." -- Douglas Adams, The Hitchhiker's Guide To The Galaxy On Feb 13, 2021, at 8:46 PM, Brad Snyder wrote: I also am able to play audio content with my VoiceDream app with the screen locked.

I use reader for different things. But mainly I use it for reading my audiobooks. I have noticed in the last week, that sometimes when I start my book playing, it will stop playing if I lock the screen. One of the things I like about reader, is that I can lock the screen. There are times I still can. But lately more times than not, I have to leave my phone unlocked. Has anyone else been experiencing this? Is it new?
