Hi Paul:

I was just looking at the hearing aid setting in accessibility since I have
a set over here.  The aids do need to be Bluetooth capable to interact with
the phone.  My understanding is that the audio would them be routed to them.
Hope this helps a little.

 

Cordially:

Subject: friend gets a new phone tomorrow, want a refresher on first steps

 

All, it's been a while since we got our phones and had to set them up from
scratch. A friend named Ken gets one tomorrow, but he's 500 miles away and
doesn't have email, twitter, etc. So communication not using a phone is
limited.

He is totally blind and has some hearing loss, almost no hearing in one ear
in fact. Here are my questions as best as I can think of them:

 

1.  In the Sprint store, they can get vo running, put some contacts in, etc.
The things Ken has to do still are get an email address, subsequently set up
an  Apple ID, synch his phone, etc. What order must he do these things in?
Does he have to use iTunes? If not, what can he do?

He will have limited help there, no one with full vision, and Ken just is
not tech savvy. He's getting the iPhone mostly for Siri, to have access to
texts, email, and the Internet. His friends that live with him have a
computer, but he doesn't use it, doesn't use JAWS.

 

2.  What do the hearing options in accessibility do?

 

If I need to clarify anything, let me know.

 

Thank you.

 

Paul
