Re: iPod Touch fifth generation sound quality.
My boyfriend has an iPad 2nd gen, and I guess because I started with an iPhone 3GS, I couldn't get used to the larger size. Everything was just too spread out for me, so I want to stick with the iPod Touch, but like I said, the 4th gen has very poor sound quality unless you keep headphones on all the time, which I just can't do. I will be purchasing the iPod Touch 5th gen very soon.

Re: questin about navigating emails using iphone gestures

Go to settings, general, accessibility VoiceOver, practice area, and touch the middle of the display to place yourself in the practice area. Now, until you either double-tap / split-tap on the done button which you can find by moving your finger around the display, or by pressing the home button to return to the home screen, every gesture you perform will cause VO to announce the gesture and then speak its function(s). Go practice and learn until you know all the gestures. I usually never carry a keyboard with me. The gestures are: Touch the screen split-tap One, two, and three finger single, double, and triple taps (if you activate zoom or assistive touch at the same time, add another tap so it goes to four taps) Four finger touch with the majority of the fingers on the top half or the bottom half of the display One, two, and three finger vertical or horizontal swipes/flicks (its the same thing) (finger alignment with each other does not matter, just all fingers moving in the same direction, and enough space between each finger so VO detects the individual fingers) The rotor - turning two fingers anywhere on the display like turning a virtual knob The pinch - moving two fingers/thumb and finger closer together or further apart The two-finger scrub - moving two fingers back and forth either horizontally or vertically One or two finger double-tap and hold The single-finger slide - actually, a normal gesture for iOS which VO also tracks. The iOS gestures are solidly in the iPhone. If you find that VO is announcing something different than what you believe you are doing, you are in error. It is like pressing control x on your keyboard when you wanted to press control c. Finally, be aware that, save for touching the screen to find something, All VO gestures activate when you remove your fingers from the display.

Re: List Recorder Full version direct download available
Hi Keith, If you all ready have List Recorder and want the Full version then do the following start List Recorder Go to get help from the tool bar at the bottom of the screen Go to upgrade info and follow the directions. By upgrading this way all the data in List Recorder will be available in the new full edition and you will just have the one app with all your data. It is actually pretty easy. I hope this helped.

In the past you needed to download the light app and then do an in app upgrade to receive the full version. Now those who want to just purchase the full version can do so. Be sure to download the version that says List Recorder Full. One bonus for those who go right to the full version is that it is $7.99 so it is a dollar less then purchasing the light version then doing the in app upgrade. Those who just want to spend a dollar to try it first still have that option using the original List Recorder app. One thing to be careful of. If you are using list Recorder in the .99 cent version then decide to upgrade be sure to do that as a in app upgrade or you will not be keeping the data in the new app. List Recorder and List Recorder Full are considered two different apps.

RE: a cool app.
I bought Big Ben, talked about the other day but, my personal favorite is G-clock. Too bad they haven't been able to keep it from dragging apps with VO or shutting down when phone rings. It's chimes sound like my friends old grandfather clock. :) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the VIPhone Google Group.

RE: guided photo pro.
It is a neat little app though, with the face identification that the newer software for the phone has, you don't need it as much. What you do is turn the phone so the back facing camera is facing you and it will tell you where to aim the camera. Up and left, down and right, then will say smile and will take a picture. It only takes a headshot of you but it is handy for some profile pics. Hope that helps. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the VIPhone Google Group.

Re: Apparently, There is an Updated Firmware for Focus 40 Blue Braille Display
Hello, I was having trouble with my Focus 40 Blue, so tech support sent me the file to update the firmware. I did, but I haven't noticed any differences.

Re: removing books from iPod
Hi, With the iPHone, you delete books by going to Settings, choosing General, and then choosing Usage. Audiobooks are listed in the Music section, and you can delete them with a double-tap and hold, then swipe right. I don't know whether this works on the Nano though.

RE: voiceover during a call
Hello Raul, I wish Apple would fix it so that Voiceover simply either does not announce the call duration or that it doesn't do so by somehow automatically focusing it away from that. Moving focus away from call duration is not hard to do, but it's a pain in the neck if I am answering a call with my headset and have the iPhone on my belt or in an inside pocket especially in the winter when it's under or inside a big coat; not everybody lives where it's warm year-round and where down coats aren't needed because it's 20 or 30 below. The way Voiceover currently behaves when a call is active is just not good and while we are on the subject it would also be nice if Voiceover wouldn't start reading push notifications or incoming text messages while I am on a call. Once again, I know it's easy to stop this if I have the phone in my hand and it's not hard to start a call and then turn off speech with a 3-finger double tap, but I often initiate a call when I am on the go by just using the headset and telling SIRI to call so and so and it wouldn't be the first time when I have to tell somebody who is talking to me to hold on because a text message or push notification just came in and I have to wait until it finishes reading it or I have to dig the phone out of my pocket/take it off my belt clip to stop it. I have, by the way, expressed these thought to Apple accessibility and I hope others do it as well.

RE: How is OCR on iPhone 5 with iOS6?
Hi Keith, This was just discussed about 2 or 3 days ago when there was a thread about Text Detective and Prizmo. In any case, the iPhone 5 has only a very marginally improved camera and in fact has exactly the same camera as far as the 8 MP sensor is concerned. They put a higher quality lens cover over the camera and it apparently performs better in low light, but apart from that it's the exact same camera as the 4S has. I have a 4S and from what I read and have heard OCR is the same. If you compare it to OCR on an iPhone 4 it will be a bit better since the camera on the iPhone 4 is only 5 MP, but even there the improvement is marginal and the quality of your results depend a lot more on how good a picture you are able to take..

RE: Breadcrumbs and Other Navigation
Hi Joe, MyWay Classic allows you to drop way points and create entire custom routes. From what I understand Breadcrums will be very similar, maybe it will have some better features, but it's the same idea. I have, by the way, not heard when it comes out, but if you go to the LookTel website you can sign up for their email list, of course you will find out soon enough since I am sure it will be immediately discussed on Viphone once it does come out.

Not sure if you are aware of this, but Apple does offer a 30-day no questions asked money back guaranty. If you order it from Apple and you don't like it just send it back.

Good evening everyone, I visited an Apple store on Wednesday to have Apple care put onto my iPhone, and had the pleasure of playing with just this beast. The sound quality is in fact much improved, and while I don't think I'd call it on par with the iPhone, it definitely sounds 1000% better than earlier iPod Touch versions. I liked it so much that I'm considering purchasing one, however, like others, am holding out to see what the iPad mini has in store for us. Physically, the new Touch is taller, and narrower than the 3rd and 4th generation devices, and it has traded the chrome backing for an aluminum look, which I like very much. It comes in a multitude of different colors too, which also appeals; I'm considering the blue. Like the iPhone5, it gives us access to the extra row of icons, and I'd assume the additional 4 apps per folder. Processor is much improved, and I love the allowance for a wrist strap located in the lower right corner on the back. In short, very nicely improved.
