Hi Brandon, My neighbor put the lanyard on for me. I'm sorry, but I don't know how he did it. I have seen the two little holes on other small cases that say they can have a lanyard attached and I don't know how this process works. I wish I could be of help. Best, Terrie -Original Message---

RE: Ring video doorbell

Hi Everyone, Does the ring Doorbell app allow you to speak to the person outside the door so that you can find out who it is before you open the door? Just wanted to make sure before I bought one. Thanks very much. Terrie Terlau -Original Message- From: viphone@googlegroups.com On Behal

RE: light detector

Hi Janet, Seeing AI has a Light Detector item in its menu and it works well. You flick right till you are on the menu and then flick up through menu options till you come to the light detector. Sorry the Light detector app isn't working. I have used it a few days ago and it still worked for me.

~RE: best map app for announcing street intersections

Mark, I totally agree with you. One of the saddest mistakes I ever made was uninstalling Nearby Explorer from my iPhone. GoodMaps sometimes gives street names and sometimes not and also is selective about announcing POIs. Sometimes it does and sometimes it doesn't for no reason that I can figure

RE: App for counting steps

Hi everyone, I have heard that the iPhone and other step-counting hardware adds steps if one taps one’s feet or uses a keyboard. If so, how can you hope to get a reasonably accurate step count or measurement of distance walked? I would appreciate advice on whether the iPhone adds steps wen th

Hi everyone, I love the Apple battery cases, but I have had problems with the case for the iPhone 7. This is the case the Apple store sold me to be used with the iPhone 8, as they are the same size. My first case lasted nine months and then started to charge very sporadically. The cable would c

GoodMaps Explorer does do outdoors. I just installed it and looked at POIs from inside my bedroom. It seemed accurate about what I know is around me. I like its tabs at the bottom of the screen; they make sense to me. It is a free download. Not sure if its maps are on line or are part of the dow
