Re: Containers And iPhone Weather App
Hi, All: Good news is that I got containers added to the rotor. What worked for me was: settings, accessibility, voice over, then rotor, then select containers The middling news is that I still can't hear moon phase in the bunch of "extras" like pressure in either the native weather app or weather as a widget. Siri does give it when verbally asked, so that is something. The "extras" give rising or falling for the pressure and that was a good portion of my original question . They include just about everything I normally want to know about local weather except for moon phase, so I'm good.

Re: Containers And iPhone Weather App
Hi! You add containers to the roder by going to settings, accessibility, then roder, then select containers. However, this is not necessary to find out the pressure info from the native weather. app. I personally, never use containers and access this information all the time. You just slide your finger down the screen til you hear the weather announced by days rather than hours. Scroll through this and then you will reach all the extra information like uv index, wind speed pressure visibility and so on. Its pretty easy, but it is a slightly longer process than it used to be in previous versions of ios. You used to be able to touch the botum of the screen where it names your selected city and then scroll up and the information was right there, but now if you try this you end up on the weather by days portion of the app and must scroll back down again. > On Oct 5, 2022, at 5:01 PM, Margaret Thomas wrote: > > Hi, All: > > I can get Siri to give me the barometric pressure by verbally asking, but > doesn't say if the pressure is rising or falling.

RE: Containers And iPhone Weather App
Margaret, in Weather, go to Today, flick through the days until you get to where there is sunrise and sunset, wind speed, and eventually barometric pressure, and it does say rising or falling - kept me company all through Ian.

Containers And iPhone Weather App
Hi, All: I can get Siri to give me the barometric pressure by verbally asking, but doesn't say if the pressure is rising or falling. I've been looking for something with a little more pressure information and someone suggested Dark Sky, but I understand it will be going away in 2023. I found an old post from Richard which mentions pressure and some other items like moon phase that I'm interested in being on the native weather app. Apparently having containers on the rotor allows more information to be heard on the screen than I'm getting. Containers were new to me and I sort of understand them now,but I'm not finding them on the rotor for the screen that lists some of today's weather 10 day forecast etc. I've got Characters; Words; Headings and Speaking Rate on the rotor Could someone please tell me how to add containers to the rotor so I can get this additional weather information. I'm running IOS 15.6.1 on an iPhone SE 2020. I'd be very grateful for any help.

Containers are groups of information that you can jump between with the rotor feature. These are kind of like regions with in an application. You also see containers or landmarks on websites: such as navigation menus, main page content, or footer content. In the Apple Weather app you have: current weather, hourly weather and 10 day forecast. You can add the container option to your rotor. When you switch the containers option you can flick down to move down the application via containers and once you get to the container you want to explore, now you can flick right to read the content in the container.

In the default weather app on the iPhone you do not have to navigate it line by line.
