Hi all. Searching for apps and recommendations using applevis has always been difficult for me. I admit that I’m not the best at using the web, so that’s probably part of the problem. However, I have learned to value the opinions of people on this list. I trust the information that is given because it’s based on personal experiences of people I’ve learned to trust.
Please be patient with those of us who aren’t as computer savvy and continue to share your expertise. I appreciate all the help and information Ive gotten from you all. Thanks for being willing to share. God bless! Paula From: viphone@googlegroups.com <viphone@googlegroups.com> On Behalf Of Richard Turner Sent: Friday, September 25, 2020 11:36 AM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: applevis.com has no search box Following up on the comment about people needing to use Applevos.com before asking questions on this list… I just went to Applevis.com with Microsoft Edge and with Firefox. There are no search boxes, none, nada, nowhere. If you are looking for information on an app, you cannot simply search for it. You have to drill down through many pages to get anything. Even, after following the link from the main page titled, “Apps,” and you find the heading for Apps, it says: Apps article Here at AppleVis we strive to make it easier for you to find great and accessible apps to use on Apple products. >From this page, you can browse and search our directories of iOS, iPadOS, Mac, >Apple Watch, and Apple TV apps; see what apps others are recommending; and see which iOS and iPadOS apps our community has inducted into our Hall Of Fame. So, I followed the link to search, then you have a bunch (I was going to say s***load, but thought better of it) of more links with not a search box anywhere to be found. So, at this point, applevis is only marginally useful, especially for someone who is a beginner. I have been using iDevices since they became accessible and can find what I need most of the time without resorting to asking too many questions on the list, but I used to always refer people to Applevis, especially for their blog about updates, and I will still recommend that. But as a source to find information about specific apps, or just apps in general, it is a crazy rabbit-warren of trails that I won’t be bothering with.

(It is notable that while I have regretted not granting grace to others, I’ve never once regretted extending it.)" - Edward Herbert -- The following information is important for all members of the V iPhone list.
