Dan, you can set it to use either uncontracted or contracted braille and it
will recognize all braille symbols.
There is a guide on AppleVis that even though it was written under iOS 8, is
still relevant. Here is the link to that

The iPhone 11 has better battery life and generally speaking a newer model
usually would have improved battery life over the same model from the year
before.
Of course once a phone gets to be 2 or 3 years old the battery capacity is not
what it was when the phone was new.

No, a blind person can not use a Drone. There maybe some things you could do
since many Drones have something like a Follow Me feature which when engaged
makes the Drone follow you around, it is sort of wirelessly tethered to your
iPhone, but the fact is that you have to see your Drone to fly
Hi Keith,
That is unfortunately how the app works, it could be better but it's workable
as it is.
The trick is that once you flick up for example to change from page 1 to 2 and
say from your main indoor module to the second indoor module, just start
flicking right without touching anything
If you have a PC I would do it on that, go to http://AppleID.apple.com, then
look for the "Forgot Apple Id or Password" link and go from there.

Try Overcast.
It is free and works great with VoiceOver and has some extra features like
being able to speed up the podcast, or reduce the silences.
I don't recall exactly where those settings are, but I'd recommend downloading
it and exploring its settings.

I want to make sure that is off. The guy at Wal-Mart did not
think we got the facial ID, so I'll eventually be sure about
that and get someone to help if it is not. I just want to
rule out Raise to Wake, because it uses a lot of battery if
