I have that keyboard. I’m interested in that carrying case, as the reason I had 
to change out that keyboard before was too many drops and too much stepping on 
it.

Richard funny, I came to that same conclusion yesterday! About needing to get a

it was broken. if I go that route I'm definitelygoing to want  a full-size

need to do anything that might aggravate that such as type on a small  little

It is just an iPhone SE; plain and simple.

Apple confused everyone when they didn't use a number for the SE model and I 
gather SE may have stood for Special Edition in house at Apple.

 

Likewise, the new iPhone SE has no number really; but is often referred to as 
the iPhone SE 2020 to help distinguish it from the old iPhone SE.

 

So, a 6S and SE are not the same animal.  However, to confuse things even 
further, the SE has the same internal hardware and processing chip as the 6S; 
but is the size of the 5S.

 

And before anyone jumps in to say the iPhone X didn't have a number; it does, 
the X is the Roman numeral for 10.

 

So, I suspect you now have the old iPhone SE since the new iPhone SE released 
this year comes with iOS 13.4.1.

Its keys feel like the same keys I have on my computer USB keyboard.
It does not have the number pad, which you don’t need for an iPhone anyway.

garbled for you to understand. I hope I do less and less of that with each new

It was never clear that you bought the SE 2020.
Now it is, so ignore the rest of my message.
May I suggest you get a bluetooth keyboard so you are not relying on dictation, 
unless you cannot type, in which case, you are stuck with dictation and being

Apple confused everyone when they didn't use a number for the SE model and I 
gather SE may have stood for Special Edition in house at Apple.

Likewise, the new iPhone SE has no number really; but is often referred to as 
the iPhone SE 2020 to help distinguish it from the old iPhone SE.

So, a 6S and SE are not the same animal.  However, to confuse things even 
further, the SE has the same internal hardware and processing chip as the 6S; 
but is the size of the 5S.

And before anyone jumps in to say the iPhone X didn't have a number; it does, 
the X is the Roman numeral for 10.

So, I suspect you now have the old iPhone SE since the new iPhone SE released

Richard, I am indeed using the new SC with 13.4.1. There's one more update I 
could do. I don't didn't have any trouble with the success using an issue even 
earlier version of 13. I think part of the problem when writing a message 
you're trying to edit something in a Gmail mail message, is that I am 
activating inadvertently the text formatting or all those things that try and 
insert themselves like do you want to insert a picture or do you want to do 
some kind of text formatting and then it just throws me just the whole 
voiceover thing no longer is working with the text that I had started writing. 
And like just now I'm dictating this for a second time. Somehow it just got

Yes, it will fit. But the camera will be out of line.

Hi Deidre. iOS 13.4.1, is the latest update.

Also, i think you mean, the iPhone SE, not SC.

Subject: Re: voice over instability

Richard, I am indeed using the new SC with 13.4.1. There's one more update 
I could do. I don't didn't have any trouble with the success using an 
issue even earlier version of 13. I think part of the problem when writing 
a message you're trying to edit something in a Gmail mail message, is that 
I am activating inadvertently the text formatting or all those things that 
try and insert themselves like do you want to insert a picture or do you 
want to do some kind of text formatting and then it just throws me just 
the whole voiceover thing no longer is working with the text that I had 
started writing. And like just now I'm dictating this for a second time. 
Somehow it just got deleted, the whole message. i'm afraid to even go back 
and try and edit this now for fear it's going to do something quirky all 
over again. So please excuse the errors in this message. God how I miss my 
PC and outlook which I am responsible for corrupting after trying to 
delete 27,000 messages or at least go through 27,000 messages to get rid 
of the things that were hidden in an unread folder that were copies of 
other things that I have long since deleted. My mistake.

Richard, no I'm not using the Gmail app. Some of the apps really streamlined 
some of those things that I really like to use, and some don't work well at 
all. So no I only did it the way you suggested and I'm still getting all kinds 
of weird editing issues. Who knows, maybe things will settle down soon. I hope

Maybe you did, but the wording of your message had me thinking you were using 
the Gmail app, not the Apple mail app.

If you are going to stick with the Gmail app, you will likely continue finding 
all these issues in mail.
The Apple default mail app handles Gmail accounts very well.
You should, at the very least, setup your gmail account in Settings, Passwords 
and accounts, and try it out before dumping the phone or Apple.
Good luck with Android if you do leave Apple.

Hello all,
  Before hitting the list with more complaints about how jumpy my new SE2 with 
IOS 13.4.1 is, I called Apple Accessibility this morning to sort out what 
features I might be able to eliminate and to demo the kinds of voice over 
problems I was having. We screen shared so that the person at the other end of 
the line could see what was happening on my screen in real time.
  Remember now that I have updated from using an I phone 6 with 12.4.6, which 
did everything I wanted, other than turn on location tracking with Seeri which 
has only become possible with IOS 13_ - that gets one gold star in my book. The 
screen on the 6 is shattered and the ringer stopped working quite some time 
ago, and some sounds and notifications were no longer spoken, even though the 
actual function of receiving and sending calls and mail and messages continued 
to work just fine.
  I bought a cheap iPhone 6S that has 13.13.2.3 on to serve in the interim 
before the SE came out. It's been weeks now, so I can't recall if the 6S with 
13.2.3 threw me any curve balls, but the SE with IOS 13.4.1 is driving me crazy.
One of my main gripes has to do with mail. I use gmail on the new phone as I 
did on the 6 and it has become a nightmare to write, read then edit messages. I 
get these spontaneous spoken invitations to format text, insert a picture, and 
other things others must also be seeing, at least if they are using gmail on 
their SE's. I often cannot back space character by character to read or delete 
text, or select text in any block. This can be true for rereading text as well 
where I get thrown all over the place and the cursor, seems to be somewhere 
other than where I am reading from, or where voice over lead me to believe I 
was. I sometimes suspect it might be trying to correct something even though I 
have all that turned off.
Then there is that insistent vertical scroll bar that gets activated all the 
time when what I thought I was doing was simply reading text  whether it be on 
Facebook or in any other App.
The same voice over inaccuracy and jumpiness comes into play using Safari which 
is the browser Apple uses. The Accessibility person said it was the fault of 
the web site not voice over that, by way of example, when Voice over told me 
that I was in a live edit field, and when I went to type in my search criteria, 
I was bounced all over the place. This happened on the Hadley site which is a 
learning tools service for the Blind. What the person at the other end of the 
phone line saw was that I was not in an edit field at all, but that I was in a 
green box with nothing in it. Another time, when vo told I was in an edit field 
where I could type, the accessibility guy said that I was actually on a picture 
of a woman.
I am astonished that voice over has become so unstable in the day to day doing 
many of the things I've been doing for years using some of the same web sites 
and mail programs. Has Hadley gone that far down the tubes in terms of their 
web design? Or why are those speech codes no longer shared, or working when 
they did with other versions of IOS? Is this by deliberate design? If it is, my 
days as a consumer of Apple products may be over when it comes time to get a 
new phone.
  Can anyone please tell me what about all this is correct and what might not 
be? For one thing, I guess I'd better go back and select voice over to speak 
all images it encounters rather than just the labelled ones, so maybe voice 
over won't confuse where I am and speak something that isn't true. I am also 
violently opposed to using Apple mail or web mail, so I'm stuck there too 
unless I change my mind about it.
I'm ready
