I know a while ago there was some discussion on this forum about the Drop
kitchen scale and it's app. Wondering if that is still the best choice for
a kitchen food scale, and accompanying IPhone app? Are there any other
connected scales that people are using that are accessible with the IPhone?
Command-F7 if I remember right.
Command is what the rest called the Windows key. But Mac's are laid out
different, so might be where we kept the alt key.

Thanks for the info. However, I don't see anything at all under settings that
says interaction. Sometimes, I want to use the speaker when a call begins.
But I'll keep working with this, and keep meeting challenges with iOS 13 as
they arise.

Dwayne,
If you are using iOS 13, you won't find settings from those directions, those
are for iOS 12 and earlier.
Accessibility has its own category now, just after display and brightness.
The only setting I'm finding is under VoiceOver, Audio, where you can have it
set to auto switch to speaker
It could be that this only works with certain Apple keyboards.
It certainly does not work with any of the Logitech keyboards I've tried.

Hello,
It is an app that will help you to drink more water during the day. You can set
it up to remind you every hour to drink water and you can log each glass you
