Re: some questions, and a request for help regarding my new Apple watch series 8 of the watch.

2022-10-05 Thread Jonathan Cohn
There is a builtin feature to have a tone on the hour, I believe it is in the 
accessibility section. I have my set up to have a robin chirp every hour. I 
believe they recorded a bird in the Apple park.
You can check the battery status of your watch in the battery widget of  your 
phone. I believe it also shows up in the Watch app on the phone.
The mirroring of the watch onto your iPhone requires the IOS 16 software that 
came out last month.



Best wishes,

Jonathan Cohn

You can also add a Battery complication to a watch face, that will tell you the 
battery’s charge level.

Hi Maurice,

First, you can make your watch chime on the hour.  Either on your watch or your 
phone, go into Settings, then Clock, then turn on Chimes.  You can then choose 
whether to have a chime or a bird song.

Second, to access the battery level on your watch, swipe left—if your watch 
hand is pointing at your opposite hand, to open the control center.  From 
there, you can swipe down until you hear the battery level spoken.

I’m not sure what you’re asking in your third question.  Can you give us an 
example?
Best,
Donna

some questions, and a request for help regarding my new Apple watch series 8 of the watch.

2022-10-02 Thread maurice mines
Good evening everyone, my subject line states I have some questions 
regarding my new Apple watch. The first question is are there any that 
can run on the watch that will allow the watch to give me a once in our. 
If someone knows about and am that will allow me to do this, as well as 
be accessible while using voiceover, please feel free to let me know if 
you know of any good accessible applications.



I next question as to do more with battery life, and finding that it is 
typical that I am getting roughly 24 hours plus from the battery that is 
in listening watch. That brings me to another question must I use my 
phone, to find out what the battery level is on the watch? My final 
question is based on what I've read the output of the watch can be 
mirrored on some the other devices, such as my phone or Mac computer. Is 
this true?



Sincerely Maurice Mines.


Note number one, just be aware that the above text has been dictated to 
the computer by using dictation software. If there are mistakes in the 
text above, they certainly aren't intended. The errors are the result of 
too much background noise, or other unforeseen errors that have occurred 
while dictating this. Number two this email is being done on a Windows 
machine, simply because the dictation hardware only exists full-blown 
Windows machine. This is because there is no dictation software that is 
comparable to Dragon the Mac world. Thank you for reading this.
