Using playlists to sync content with your iPhone - was - Re: MP3 files and iTunes

2013-05-30 Thread Arianna
I can deffinately say that using playlists to sync music to your iPhone is an 
awesome feature! This is the only way that I use to get music and audiobooks 
onto my phone. It's such a time-saver, too.


Thanks,

  Robert,


  Translation, or rather native speaking for a foreign language menu, wouldn't 
be that much of a stretch.  If the menu was written in Italian for example, we 
could use an Italian voice to render the speech.  Right now, it lets you choose 
Female, Male, or a fun Robot voice.  We could easily add other voices/languages.


  Some of you already have my other apps, like AutoRingtone or Ringtones 
Uncensored. Those provide custom Talking Caller ID using dozens of 
text-to-speech voices.  I also have Ringtones EURO, Asian Ringtones, Arabic 
Ringtones and more.  So it wouldn't be too hard to add more languages.  We'll 
add it to the list (Android, Point of Sale integration for electronic ordering, 
etc.) and I'll report back on our priorities.  It probably will need to wait 
until our menu provider offers more coverage of other countries.

Hello Todd: 


Let me start by thanking you for providing an update so quickly to 
incorporate our feedback. I can't wait to try out the new version. 


In your note, you also asked for additional feature suggestions for the app 
moving forward. I have one for you but I suspect it will take a lot of work to 
implement. The suggestion expands upon your current functionality to have the 
phone speak an order to service staff if the user of the product is deaf. 


Many of us travel to foreign countries for business or pleasure. In many 
cases, I am not conversant enough in the local language to order food and such. 
Could a translation feature be built into this app both to allow us to read the 
menus and to voice our order in several languages to be heard by the service 
staff? 


Thank you for considering this request. I certainly understand if this goes 
beyond your vision of the product.

  Thank you everyone for the great, constructive feedback. We've learned a 
lot and I wanted to give you an update.  I just submitted an update to Apple 
based on all the comments received so far!


  First, I've built over 80 apps, for iOS, Android, Windows Phone, Mac OS 
and even Samsung Bada.  This is the most complex one I've ever built. In 
addition the emphasis on voiceover, the app is also meant for the Deaf, 
Non-Verbal and Non-English-speaking audience, as it can speak the order to the 
waitstaff, independently of voiceover.  The app is accessing four different 
servers from three different companies. One server, in Switzerland, is for the 
logo scanning, one in Rochester, NY (soon to migrate to Amazon's cloud servers) 
is our own with our internal database with photos and premium customer info, 
another in Las Vegas is for the text-to-speech hints (which you do not need if 
you are using voiceover) and the last one, in San Francisco, is for the 
restaurant/business/menu database.  That service and server is provided by 
Locu.com.


  That last one is where we have the following issues. First, thanks to the 
popularity of the app, we went over their previously undisclosed limit of 1,000 
requests per day, around 8am Pacific time. That is why some of you saw the app 
crashing.  Since that provider doesn't open until 9am, I had to keep calling 
until they answered to get our limit raised.  (I asked for 100,000!)  It was 
raised and I've made an edit to the app (for the next update) that will display 
a message instead of crashing if that ever happens again!


  Next, is the issue of no menus. That was probably because their server 
offers info for more than just restaurants.  For example, they have hair 
salons, spas, etc.  I'm changing the app to just show restaurants, by default, 
and we may re-enable other businesses in a future update, but because it was 
causing confusion, I don't think it should default to "all businesses".  That 
other info is valuable, but the confusion seems to be the bigger problem.


  Regarding stale data, I have noticed this and complained about it, too.  
I think the provider's emphasis, understandably, is on growing their database 
and there is less focus on pruning out old info.  They are a startup, too, and 
I can relate to prioritizing resources.  But I think we will create a button 
that lets you report old data and then we can blacklist it from the app, even 
if it hasn't been removed from that provider's database.  To be honest, it's 
quite remarkable that they've built this menu system, without requiring 
restaurants to do anything.  They search for websites, and even scan

Hi Stacey, a Bumper is the Apple-produced case for the iPhone. It only covers

Re: Apple just approved All Access: Talking Menus & More

2013-05-30 Thread Cara Quinn
Hi Alan, actually a mobile app is a computer program. App is short for 
application. There's no difference. :)

Even web apps these days are really full-fledged programs…

Just a quick FYI… :)

Have a terrific evening!

Smiles,

Cara :)

Subject: Re: Apple just approved All Access: Talking Menus & More

Thank you everyone for the great, constructive feedback. We've learned a lot 
and I wanted to give you an update.  I just submitted an update to Apple based 
on all the comments received so far!

First, I've built over 80 apps, for iOS, Android, Windows Phone, Mac OS and 
even Samsung Bada.  This is the most complex one I've ever built. In addition 
the emphasis on voiceover, the app is also meant for the Deaf, Non-Verbal and 
Non-English-speaking audience, as it can speak the order to the waitstaff, 
independently of voiceover.  The app is accessing four different servers from 
three different companies. One server, in Switzerland, is for the logo 
scanning, one in Rochester, NY (soon to migrate to Amazon's cloud servers) is 
our own with our internal database with photos and premium customer info, 
another in Las Vegas is for the text-to-speech hints (which you do not need if 
you are using voiceover) and the last one, in San Francisco, is for the 
restaurant/business/menu database.  That service and server is provided by 
Locu.com.

That last one is where we have the following issues. First, thanks to the 
popularity of the app, we went over their previously undisclosed limit of 1,000 
requests per day, around 8am Pacific time. That is why some of you saw the app 
crashing.  Since that provider doesn't open until 9am, I had to keep calling 
until they answered to get our limit raised.  (I asked for 100,000!)  It was 
raised and I've made an edit to the app (for the next update) that will display 
a message instead of crashing if that ever happens again!

Next, is the issue of no menus. That was probably because their server offers 
info for more than just restaurants.  For example, they have hair salons, spas, 
etc.  I'm changing the app to just show restaurants, by default, and we may 
re-enable other businesses in a future update, but because it was causing 
confusion, I don't think it should default to "all businesses".  That other 
info is valuable, but the confusion seems to be the bigger problem.

Regarding stale data, I have noticed this and complained about it, too.  I 
think the provider's emphasis, understandably, is on growing their database and 
there is less focus on pruning out old info.  They are a startup, too, and I 
can relate to prioritizing resources.  But I think we will create a button that 
lets you report old data and then we can blacklist it from the app, even if it 
hasn't been removed from that provider's database.  To be honest, it's quite 
remarkable that they've built this menu system, without requiring restaurants 
to do anything.  They search for websites, and even scan paper menus and have 
over one million such menus now.  They have signed deals with GoDaddy and Yelp 
so we're in good company.  And they are excited to be part of this accessible 
effort.

Re voiceover and accessibility.  The specific feedback was great, and I believe 
I've made all of the changes.  I've used the app repeatedly in voiceover mode 
and I think I've eliminated everything people were running into. For the 
technically inclined, you might be interested to know that there are at least 
109 specific accessibility commands in the app source code. The problem wasn't 
really the lack of voiceover commands but that we were layering views on top of 
previous ones, and that meant in some views, if there wasn't another accessible 
element displayed, the ones below it would "peak through."  That has been fixed.

I will change how you edit settings, like manual address versus GPS, as this 
was confusing even to sighted folks!

Regarding finding the app, I sent the initial email shortly after Apple 
notified us it was approved, and it takes some time for apps to show up, 
especially worldwide.  Nobody should have a problem finding it now, either by 
searching for all access or search for blind menus or use this 
link:http://bit.ly/AllAccessMenus

For a restaurant to be included in the app, or to update their existing info, 
they can either contact us directly, which is preferred, or they can contact 
Locu.com who is the menu database provider.  There is no charge to be listed 
and no charge to have a menu included.  Both Locu and our firm, All Access, 
offer premium feature

I tried this with my Plantronics M50. I pressed and held the answer button
on the headset until I heard the Seri tone. A dialogue box opened that said
Plantronics m50. And iPhone. I selected the M50, and double tapped. Then it
said dismissed Seri, so I did. I started the process over, said to call my
wife at home, and nothing happened until I double tapped the screen. Then
the call went through. Try double tapping the screen after you give the
command. This may solve the problem, however, if you need to touch the
screen you may as well go into contacts.

I have played around with this app for a while and no matter what restaurant

these places? I tap on these buttons and it keeps giving me the information for

Re: How often do you charge your Iphone?

2013-05-30 Thread David Chittenden
A full charge discharge cycle is recommended once per month. Other than that, 
it not recommended that you go below 20% very often. The strongest 
recommendations say it is best for the battery if one keeps the charge level 
cycling between 30% and 80%, or 40% and 90%. However, this is not practical, so 
starting at 100% and going down to 20% is ok. Nothing wrong with plugging 
iPhone in for 10% to 20% of charge add during the day is perfectly good for the 
battery.

Re: a bit confused re: I pod touch on apple store

2013-05-30 Thread Esther
Hi Keith and others,

It may make it easier for you to decide between the 4th and 5th
generation iPod Touch models by hearing about some of the things you
can do with the 5th generation iPod Touch that you can't do with the
4th generation model.  The 5th generation iPod Touch has a 5 megapixel
camera in contrast to the 0.7 megapixel of the 4th generation model.
Popular apps like TapTapSee that rely on the camera quality to
identify objects will work dramatically better with the 5th generation
camera.  OCR applications require at least a 3 megapixel camera to
work -- and that's even the lower limit recommended for sighted
individuals using the camera.  You can use an OCR app like Prizmo or
TextGrabber with an external stand like the StandScan Pro with the 5th
generation iPod Touch.  The camera on the 4th generation iPod Touch
fails for this use by several factors.

The new music apps are using a standard called Audiobus that allows
the inputs and outputs of Audiobus compatible music apps to be shared
-- you can either use this to record/produce more than one track in an
app like GarageBand, or to use the outputs of an Audiobus compatible
music app as the input to another Audiobus compatible app.  This
process
cannot work on the fourth generation iPod, which does not have enough
processing power.  Although techinically it could limp through some
Audiobus capable processing, Apple specifically disabled this
capability on GarageBand for the 4th generation iPod Touch as being
too far below the hardware requirements.  (There's a forum post about
this on AppleVis). The 5th generation iPod Touch uses a dual core
processor and is Audiobus capable.

Hope this gives you a flavor of some of the real limitations you'll
encounter in the user experience between the fourth and fifth
generation iPod Touch.

Cheers,

Esther

Pages

2013-05-30 Thread Bonnie L. Snyder

I have two questions about the app Pages.
1.  Is there a way to access the spelling suggestions when a word is 
misspelled?
2.  A client of mine is experiencing a problem in that when she goes 
back to add a plural to a word, VoiceOver will say "so" whenever it 
reads the word; for example she adds an "s" to the word stick; VO says 
"so" even when she goes back to read the whole word it says "stick so" 
but there is no space between the word and the "s". Any ideas?

Re: Plantronics M50 help request

2013-05-30 Thread Chuck Dean
When I started Seri, nothing was said, but I could see there was something in 
the center of the screen. So, I moved my finger around until I heard use 
Plantronics M50. I double tapped the screen and it worked with Seri. 
Now, that being said, I have had four different headsets and none work very 
well with Seri or dictation. Usually what happens is, I try to use the headset, 
I get some gibberish, I say some profanities, and turn off the headset. 
I find the headsets are great for listening to voice over and phone calls.

Re: Apple just approved All Access: Talking Menus & More

2013-05-30 Thread Todd Bernhard
Robert,

Translation, or rather native speaking for a foreign language menu, 
wouldn't be that much of a stretch.  If the menu was written in Italian for 
example, we could use an Italian voice to render the speech.  Right now, it 
lets you choose Female, Male, or a fun Robot voice.  We could easily add 
other voices/languages.

Some of you already have my other apps, like AutoRingtone or Ringtones 
Uncensored. Those provide custom Talking Caller ID using dozens of 
text-to-speech voices.  I also have Ringtones EURO, Asian Ringtones, Arabic 
Ringtones and more.  So it wouldn't be too hard to add more languages. 
 We'll add it to the list (Android, Point of Sale integration for 
electronic ordering, etc.) and I'll report back on our priorities.  It 
probably will need to wait until our menu provider offers more coverage of 
other countries.

Re: Plantronics M50 help request

2013-05-30 Thread Eric Caron

Hi Chuck,

Thanks for the tips and user guide.  

So, I called Plantronics and was told that I can only use the voice dialing of 
Siri.  Are people able to get this to work?  Are you able to give other Siri 
commands?  I can not get it to work for voice dial or anything else at this 
end.  When I double tap the screen as Chuck noted I didn't hear anything about 
connecting to Plantronics.

Also, I am told this only works with the phone and not with the Mac.  This 
seems silly to me so I'm just curious if people use the M50 with their 
computers or only phones.

Thanks,

Eric Caron

 Hi Listers,
 
After lurking on the list a long time, reading the bluetooth threads,  
 I finally purchased a Plantronics M50.  I'm hoping a few experienced users 
 can assist me with a few questions.  Or, if someone has a link to a 
 electronic user's guide I'd be glad to read up.
 
 My first question is how do I use Siri with the M50?  I press the button 
 on my phone and hear the familiar sound but it never responds to my voice.
 
 My second question is can I pair the device to my Mac book at the same 
 time? I read in a description that it can pair to two phones so I thought 
 why not one phone and my Mac book Pro?
 If not at the same time can I switch quickly?  If so how?
 
 
 This seems like a great device.  I'm not really noticing the lag with 
 Voice Over I heard discussed and was dreading.

I charge my phone once a day, and I try to charge it when I am in bed.  I
try to maximize my battery power by keeping the screen locked when I am not
using the phone and keeping the App switcher empty.  I also for the most
part will not charge the phone until I get to 20% power.

Re: Apple just approved All Access: Talking Menus & More

2013-05-30 Thread Todd Bernhard
The All Access app works worldwide and has access to over one million 
menus.  Understandably, most will be in the U.S., but give it a try and let 
us know.  Thanks!

Actually, I just tried it, substituting Australia for my location, and it 
found a few restaurants, but most didn't have menus.  Remember any 
restaurant can add their menu for free, so you should reach out to your 
favorite restaurants and let them know that they could earn more of your 
business if they participated.

Thanks!

Re: Apple just approved All Access: Talking Menus & More

2013-05-30 Thread Todd Bernhard
Fred,

Applebees is indeed in the master database, and I've found dozens of 
locations, with menus.  They are listed under American as well as 
Steakhouse / Grill.  Some locations also list them under Irish and Pub / 
Brewery / Bar, but if you limit to American cuisine, you should find it. 
 Let me know what city you are in and I can verify.  The feedback button in 
the app is the best way to reach us directly.

One thing a lot of folks seem to be missing (which means we need to do a 
better job) is that on the search results page there is a horizontal 
scrolling bar at the bottom that lets you narrow by cuisine.  We will 
change that to be more user friendly in an update.

Thanks!

A $50 iTunes gift card on sale for $40 today only Thursday may 30, 2013

2013-05-30 Thread Raul A. Gallegos
Hi all. I know the subject sounds spammy, but I promise you it's not. 
This is an awesome deal for an iTunes gift card valued at $50 for only 
$40. A couple of weeks ago I purchased a $100 iTunes gift card for $85 
and I thought that was a good deal, but this one is even better. If I 
were to buy 2 of these at $40 each I would be getting $100 iTunes credit 
for only $80. That's 20% off. The following site takes you to Blind 
Bargains, which then links you to the Ebay seller who is selling these. 
I know they work for the U.S., but I don't know if the deal is honored 
for outside the U.S., so there is my disclaimer. The link is below.

Re: Bose SoundDock 10

2013-05-30 Thread Alan Paganelli
Suzanne, I have a sound dock 10 with the optional Bluetooth receiver but I have 
never experienced that beeping every 30 minutes.  I think I'd have it checked.

Other then that, how do you like it?  I think it sounds fantastic.

  Subject: Bose SoundDock 10


  Hello,

   

  I recently got a Bose SoundDock 10. All of its controls are via a remote, 
which is quite easy to use. The manual says that the unit can either be powered 
off by use of the remote or by removing the phone or iPod from the dock. 
Problem is, the SoundDock 10 beeps every half hour when the iPhone is not 
playing music. In other words, unless I am listening to music via the dock, it 
does the same two-tone beep that it makes when you first plug it in.

   

  Does anyone else out there use a SoundDock 10? Do you have this issue? Any 
idea what might be going on? It's a mystery, since the SoundDock 10 has no 
internal clock that I know of. And yet it beeps every thirty minutes.

   

  Suzanne

There is already a pedometer  on iPhone.  And, it's totally accessible.  
All you need to do is to enable it for it to show up as another app on your 
phone.  To access it, do the following.



1 Open Settings.

2 Flick right until you get to "Nike Plus iPod" and single-finger double 
tap.

3 Flick right to get to "Nike Plus iPod" and double tap the toggle from off 
to on.



There are other options here that you can look through and set the way you 
want.You can even select a power song from your personal library to get that 
blood moving around!There is a spoken voice and you can select and more.

  There is already a pedometer  on iPhone.  And, it's totally accessible.  All 
you need to do is to enable it for it to show up as another app on your phone.  
To access it, do the following.



  1 Open Settings.

  2 Flick right until you get to "Nike Plus iPod" and single-finger double tap.

  3 Flick right to get to "Nike Plus iPod" and double tap the toggle from off 
to on.

Re: How many folks carry their iPhone without a case?

2013-05-30 Thread Alan Paganelli
I think it depends on if you plan on selling your iPhone after your contract is 
up with your provider.  iPhones that are in fantastic condition bring more 
money then ones all beat to hell.  Also, iPhones with larger hard drives fetch 
more money then those with only 8 GB for example.

  I use a case, when I first got mine I had a case where it sort of sat inside, 
it was the case for an older iPhone but I could clip it to a pocket.  I bought 
an Otterbox and have never looked back.  I have had at least two times when I 
dropped the phone, once I was in the hospital and it got pushed off a table 
that was high;  by an aide who thought it was cool to reorganize everything on 
my husband's table when he was having a procedure done.  Recently I got tangled 
up in cables and pulled it off the desk, it landed on my foot, but I am glad I 
have that protection and a lot of my coworkers ask me where I got the case.

  I don't like, are use cases either. People buy a nice new shiny expensive

Takes away the nice looks of the iPhone.

  Subject: How often do you charge your Iphone?

  Hi list,
  as the discussion about the cases has been going on and someone has
  mentioned they have their Iphone on a charger when they are at work, I am
  just wondering how often do you charge your Iphone?
  Do you put it on a charger before going to bed and keep it there until the
  morning?
  Do you have it on a charger permanently when you stay at home?
  Is there anyone who charges their Iphone more times a day?
  When you are out at work/school or anywhere else, do you keep it on a
  charger?
  As for me, I charge my Iphone almost every day, but it depends what I do
  with it.
  I always let battery go down to 1% and then put it on a charger. Once a
  month I let it go down to 0%.
  Looking forward to your opinions.
  Maria

Re: Plantronics M50 help request

2013-05-30 Thread Chuck Dean
I just tried Seri with the headset. First, there are two different beeps before 
I heard the Seri sound. Then when I asked a question and double tapped the 
screen, there was a dialogue box asking me to choose the Plantronics M50. After 
I double tapped this selection, Seri worked fine. BTW, billy Crystal is sixty 
six years old. 
As far as pairing more than one device, I have not had any success in this 
area.

I charge my phone once a day, and I try to charge it when I am in bed.  I
try to maximize my battery power by keeping the screen locked when I am not
using the phone and keeping the App switcher empty.  I also for the most
part will not charge the phone until I get to 20% power.

Re: tweetList and links

2013-05-30 Thread Wayne Merritt
When on the direct message in TweetList, have you tried doing a 1
finger triple tap? This will bring up several options, including a URL
button, which if you double tap that will bring up more options like
Copy. I heard someone on Twitter explain the triple tap and double tap
and hold like this: Imagine that the triple tap is like saying, "Me,
me, me!" These are things that you want to do with the tweet, like
view usernames, open a URL, or even copying or emailing the tweet.
Picture the double tap and hold gesture like a hand shake, in that you
shake once and then shake a secodn time, but then hold the other
person's hand a little longer. Same as when doing a double tap and
hold. This is used when interacting with others, like when you want to
reply to, direct message, or retweet a tweet you have gotten. I don't
know why these gestures would not work on direct messages. These are
gestures specifically for TweetList, though other Twitter apps may
have their own gestures or ways of doing things.

Wayne Merritt

Re: How many folks carry their iPhone without a case?

Hi.  I don't have a case for my ipad mini yet.  I have a rubber case that sits 
on the back of my iphone it's probably more like a bumper but the phone fits in 
the case, only the back is protected but I like the way the rubber feels in my 
hand easier to hold.

Plantronics M50 help request

2013-05-30 Thread Eric Caron
Hi Listers,

After lurking on the list a long time, reading the bluetooth threads,  
I finally purchased a Plantronics M50.  I'm hoping a few experienced users can 
assist me with a few questions.  Or, if someone has a link to a electronic 
user's guide I'd be glad to read up.

My first question is how do I use Siri with the M50?  I press the button on my 
phone and hear the familiar sound but it never responds to my voice.

My second question is can I pair the device to my Mac book at the same time? I 
read in a description that it can pair to two phones so I thought why not one 
phone and my Mac book Pro?
If not at the same time can I switch quickly?  If so how?


This seems like a great device.  I'm not really noticing the lag with Voice 
Over I heard discussed and was dreading.

Eric Caron

Re: How many folks carry their iPhone without a case?

There is already a pedometer  on iPhone.  And, it's totally accessible.  All 
you need to do is to enable it for it to show up as another app on your 
phone.  To access it, do the following.

1 Open Settings.
2 Flick right until you get to "Nike Plus iPod" and single-finger double 
tap.
3 Flick right to get to "Nike Plus iPod" and double tap the toggle from off 
to on.

There are other options here that you can look through and set the way you 
want.You can even select a power song from your personal library to get that 
blood moving around!There is a spoken voice and you can select and more.

Bose SoundDock 10

2013-05-30 Thread Suzanne Wilson
Hello,

 

I recently got a Bose SoundDock 10. All of its controls are via a remote,
which is quite easy to use. The manual says that the unit can either be
powered off by use of the remote or by removing the phone or iPod from the
dock. Problem is, the SoundDock 10 beeps every half hour when the iPhone is
not playing music. In other words, unless I am listening to music via the
dock, it does the same two-tone beep that it makes when you first plug it
in.

 

Does anyone else out there use a SoundDock 10? Do you have this issue? Any
idea what might be going on? It's a mystery, since the SoundDock 10 has no
internal clock that I know of. And yet it beeps every thirty minutes.

 

Suzanne

I've double tapped the VCF file(s) and get "Create New" and "Add to

Re: Apple just approved All Access: Talking Menus & More

2013-05-30 Thread Alan Paganelli
Wow Todd!  That makes me tired just from reading all this.  I guess I just 
assumed that because it was an app that it would be less of a headache then 
writing a hole computer program.  Now I know!

Thanks for all your efforts on behalf of the blind.

  Subject: Re: Apple just approved All Access: Talking Menus & More


  Thank you everyone for the great, constructive feedback. We've learned a lot 
and I wanted to give you an update.  I just submitted an update to Apple based 
on all the comments received so far!


  First, I've built over 80 apps, for iOS, Android, Windows Phone, Mac OS and 
even Samsung Bada.  This is the most complex one I've ever built. In addition 
the emphasis on voiceover, the app is also meant for the Deaf, Non-Verbal and 
Non-English-speaking audience, as it can speak the order to the waitstaff, 
independently of voiceover.  The app is accessing four different servers from 
three different companies. One server, in Switzerland, is for the logo 
scanning, one in Rochester, NY (soon to migrate to Amazon's cloud servers) is 
our own with our internal database with photos and premium customer info, 
another in Las Vegas is for the text-to-speech hints (which you do not need if 
you are using voiceover) and the last one, in San Francisco, is for the 
restaurant/business/menu database.  That service and server is provided by 
Locu.com.


  That last one is where we have the following issues. First, thanks to the 
popularity of the app, we went over their previously undisclosed limit of 1,000 
requests per day, around 8am Pacific time. That is why some of you saw the app 
crashing.  Since that provider doesn't open until 9am, I had to keep calling 
until they answered to get our limit raised.  (I asked for 100,000!)  It was 
raised and I've made an edit to the app (for the next update) that will display 
a message instead of crashing if that ever happens again!


  Next, is the issue of no menus. That was probably because their server offers 
info for more than just restaurants.  For example, they have hair salons, spas, 
etc.  I'm changing the app to just show restaurants, by default, and we may 
re-enable other businesses in a future update, but because it was causing 
confusion, I don't think it should default to "all businesses".  That other 
info is valuable, but the confusion seems to be the bigger problem.


  Regarding stale data, I have noticed this and complained about it, too.  I 
think the provider's emphasis, understandably, is on growing their database and 
there is less focus on pruning out old info.  They are a startup, too, and I 
can relate to prioritizing resources.  But I think we will create a button that 
lets you report old data and then we can blacklist it from the app, even if it 
hasn't been removed from that provider's database.  To be honest, it's quite 
remarkable that they've built this menu system, without requiring restaurants 
to do anything.  They search for websites, and even scan paper menus and have 
over one million such menus now.  They have signed deals with GoDaddy and Yelp 
so we're in good company.  And they are excited to be part of this accessible 
effort.


  Re voiceover and accessibility.  The specific feedback was great, and I 
believe I've made all of the changes.  I've used the app repeatedly in 
voiceover mode and I think I've eliminated everything people were running into. 
For the technically inclined, you might be interested to know that there are at 
least 109 specific accessibility commands in the app source code. The problem 
wasn't really the lack of voiceover commands but that we were layering views on 
top of previous ones, and that meant in some views, if there wasn't another 
accessible element displayed, the ones below it would "peak through."  That has 
been fixed.


  I will change how you edit settings, like manual address versus GPS, as this 
was confusing even to sighted folks!


  Regarding finding the app, I sent the initial email shortly after Apple 
notified us it was approved, and it takes some time for apps to show up, 
especially worldwide.  Nobody should have a problem finding it now, either by 
searching for all access or search for blind menus or use this link: 
http://bit.ly/AllAccessMenus


  For a restaurant to be included in the app, or to update their existing info, 
they can either contact us directly, which is preferred, or they can contact 
Locu.com who is the menu database provider.  There is no charge to be listed 
and no charge to have a menu included.  Both Locu and our firm, All Access, 
offer premium features where we plan to earn revenue.  Locu charges restaurants 
to upload their own photos, whereas our focus is on letting users upload their 
photos, via a scavenger hunt style contest, in exchange for gift cards from the 
restaurant.  We also charge

Jennie,
What version of this app do you have? I have 2.0.3. It is the paid
version. This is what I see when I open up a journal:
here is what I have from left to right:
Back btn; name of journal; date/time of most recent entry; search btn;
PDF export btn; then new entry button.

I do not see
settings button, search, browse by date, delete, and
next toolbar. Maybe double tap on the next toolbar to see if it brings those
options up.

What version do you have? Thanks for venturing to help us.

There is already a pedometer  on iPhone.  And, it's totally accessible.  All 
you need to do is to enable it for it to show up as another app on your phone.  
To access it, do the following.
 
1 Open Settings.
2 Flick right until you get to "Nike Plus iPod" and single-finger double tap.
3 Flick right to get to "Nike Plus iPod" and double tap the toggle from off to 
on.
 
There are other options here that you can look through and set the way you

Re: Jailbreak Apple TV?

2013-05-30 Thread Ben Mustill-Rose
Has anyone actually been able to use XBMC which afaik is the only
piece of software with a GUI that you can install after jailbreaking?
Google suggests that it is completely unusable with vo, but from what
some people have been saying on the list it would appear that this
isn't the case. Could people confirm if they are talking from first
hand experience or if they are just going on information that they
have heard as is the case with this message? I'd hate for someone to
go out, buy a device, jailbreak and then find that it was
inaccessible. As a side note, most versions of the stripped down iOs
that it runs aren't jailbreakable.
If there has been progress in the accessibility of XBMC type apps this
may convince me to by one as I find the out of the box functionality
quite disappointing, especially as not everyone in my family has an
iDevice and the vod options that are available in the UK are extremely
poor.

Cheers,
Ben.

There is already a pedometer  on iPhone.  And, it's totally accessible.  All 
you need to do is to enable it for it to show up as another app on your phone.  
To access it, do the following.

1 Open Settings.
2 Flick right until you get to "Nike Plus iPod" and single-finger double tap.
3 Flick right to get to "Nike Plus iPod" and double tap the toggle from off to 
on.

There are other options here that you can look through and set the way you 
want.You can even select a power song from your personal library to get that

RE: How many folks carry their iPhone without a case?

2013-05-30 Thread Rose Combs
Well, last fall I had two falls, one over a crack in a side walk, one over a 
rolled bit of asphalt at a curb.  Both times I landed on the side I carry my 
phone, in an Otter Box case.  It is still working despite the two falls and the 
two drops it has had in the past year, I try to be careful, but sometimes 
things just happen.

I don't have a case, but I do have a screen protector. I have the screen 
protector from SpeedDots. Screen protectors don't take away from the look and 
feel of the device, and the few dots help keep me oriented, especially when I'm 
using my phone at a strange angle.

With my first two Nokia phones, I got cases for them. I also got cases for my 
MP3 players. When I got my Nokia E71X, I decided that it was just too 
attractive to wrap in plastic, leather or silicon. I haven't used any cases 
since then. I take good care of my devices, keeping them in a pocket, brief 
case and so on. I don't think less of anyone who puts a case on their phone, 
but I just like the sleek elegance of the device, and I want to enjoy that 
instead of a 3rd party case.

Moderator note - Please read

2013-05-30 Thread Raul A. Gallegos
Hi all. I'm just letting you guys know that I've not been keeping up 
with the list for the last several days like I usually do. So, if you 
have noticed any list issues which have seemed to not be taken care of, 
please note that I'm slowly catching up as time permits.


These last couple of weeks have been rather full of real life events 
both personal as well as professional. As always, you can write me 
directly if something comes up which needs my immediate attention and I 
haven't yet seen it on list.


I cleared the moderation queue earlier this morning and so that should 
be fine for a bit.


Thanks all, and happy iOSing.

Re: which headphones

2013-05-30 Thread Lisa belville

Buddy,

I'm currently waiting on my pair of the Aftershoxz Bluez to be shipped. 
They've been on back order since early May.  These are the Bluetooth version 
of the wired sports headphones being sold.  As far as I know, the only 
difference between the two versions of the wired sports headphones is that 
one has a mic and the other doesn't.  Oh, and they are about $40 cheaper 
than the Bluetooth version.


I chose the wireless root because I'm not crazy about hauling around a fanny 
pack, a guide dog, and more wires.  I've been using a Trekker Breeze for 
several years and even though I can keep the speaker wires contained, I have 
occasionally gotten it tangled in my dog's leash, my fanny pack strap, and 
yes, once, even my hair, though you probably won't have this specific issue. 



I know some people have discussed a delay with VO and the Bluetooth devices, 
so I guess that might be an issue.  For me, though, the benefits offered by 
my ability to hear my surroundings as well as VO on my phone is most likely 
going to outweigh any delay that occurs.


Chocolate is the answer... who cares what the question is!

Hi all,

My provider now offers to buy back my phone upon evaluation.  I was told I 
would get a good price if my phone is in top condition without nicks and 
scratches.  Although I was very lucky not to ever drop my phone in the 3 years 
I have had it, I still think minimal protection is good to have.  The glass 4 
and 4S can easily slide off a table if you bump it.  I realize that a drop from 
a desk or table would probably not kill the phone but it could nick it or even 
just scratch it.

This buy-back program did not exist when I purchased my phone but, am I ever 
happy I selected to protect my phone from minor accidents in order to get the 
best price for it.  Having said that, I also don't believe that its necessary 
to have a phone in an armor that doubles its size  unless you work on a 
construction site or something of a kind.

I guess its up to the individual circumstances.

RE: Moderator note -was- Re: Apple just approved All Access: Talking Menus & More

2013-05-30 Thread Rose Combs
Does anyone know if you are looking  a menu how to see all of the menu, I
can read the first screen of let's say, Olive Garden but that lists a few
appetizers and I can't seem to continue past what is on that screen.  

 

I also would prefer list views.  

 

I have only downloaded the app and taken a cursory look but can't figure out
why a barbershop is under restaurants, it would be nice to see that when I
am looking for it but, not when I am trying to read a restaurant menu.

Hi Cara,

 

Thank you for the reminder. I recently participated in evaluating 2 apps
created by graduating software engineers at McGill University.  Both groups
of students had chosen to create apps that were VO accessible. We have to
understand that there are a lot of people out there wanting to work for us.

 

After the first evaluation I pointed out to them the same points you so
brilliantly described, especially our need to have things open in different
views.  Within 3 weeks, both groups came back with apps that were completely
VO accessible.  Since the developers of this app are among us, let's
continue to point out things that are wrong but making sure to give our
messages a friendly tone.

Hi All,

 

I'd like to ask that we keep our critiques of this app positive so that the
developer can benefit from our knowledge and experience here, rather than
chastising him for taking the app's interface in a direction that may not be
as beneficial for us as we'd like.

 

there are some great insights we can offer here and this can open up a
really good discussion worthy of referencing again and again if we can focus
the ideas and needs we have in positive statements that can help Todd refine
this app to work more smoothly for us as Voiceover users.

 

I'll start:

 

Todd, as some have said here already, a really good way of delivering data
to a VO user is to allow a double tap on the item one desires to obtain more
info about. Yes, you've done this to a degree, but you might take this
further in that double tapping the restaurant name actually brings up a new
view with only that restaurant's data in it. I.E. Perhaps the Map, phone and
menu buttons are the only thing now visible in the view. -Or, you might have
the map visible (so no need for a map button) and just have the button to
call the restaurant and a button to show the menu.

 

Once the user double taps the menu button, a new view will again open, which
contains only the menu categories, which the user might finally double tap
to access the actual menu items themselves, for that particular category.
Does this make sense?

 

This is only one approach but it is very helpful to a VO user to have these
data separated out into discreet views whereas now, when a VO user brings up
a menu, not only is the menu shown, but also the other restaurants in the
list, which makes for a less than optimal user experience for someone using
Voiceover. Does this help?

 

Just for a reference, a double-tap with Voiceover running is equivalent to a
single tap with VO turned off.

 

If you'd like more advice about how VO works and good accessibility
practices for iOS feel free to email me privately as well as check out
Apple's Accessibility programming guide and UIAccessibility Protocol
Reference on:

 

http://developer.apple.com

 

As I said above, my approach is certainly not the only one and others here
have some very good insights to offer. Let's start a good forward-thinking
discussion on this! K?

 

Thanks to all of us for this!

 

Smiles,

 

Cara :)

For an app that was supposed to be designed for the visually impaired, this
app leaves a lot to be desired. First, it is graphic based. There are only
four choices on each screen so you'll need to scroll through multiple pages
to find information. It would have been better if they had just used lists. 

Also in my area, the restaurant list I have dry cleaner's, nail salons,
carpet cleaners, and frat houses, plus an A&W that has been closed for at
least five years. 

The menus I could bring up seemed to have fewer selections than the actual
menus. 

I do not see myself using this app. It certainly is no where near the app I
was hoping for.

Liz, keeping my screen locked really does substantially increase my battery

There is already a pedometer  on iPhone.  And, it's totally accessible.  All 
you need to do is to enable it for it to show up as another app on your phone.  
To access it, do the following.

1 Open Settings.
2 Flick right until you get to "Nike Plus iPod" and single-finger double tap.
3 Flick right to get to "Nike Plus iPod" and double tap the toggle from off to 
on.

There are other options here that you can look through and set the way you

Re: Apple just approved All Access: Talking Menus & More

2013-05-30 Thread Victor Gouveia
I wonder if this type of app wouldn't be a better solution if it was user 
driven, as well as business driven.

What I mean is, if a menu is available online for a particular place you enjoy 
going to, and the app doesn't have this menu in it's library, it might be a 
good idea to give the user a way to submit the site, or menu to the developer 
for inclusion.

Kind of like the Traffic add-on for Navigon operates.

Just a thought.

Update - Voiceover accessibility of the Booking.com iPhone app

2013-05-30 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
Hello List,

 

I just received the below message from the gentleman who has been very good
about keeping me up-to-date about my request to make the Booking.com app
more accessible.

 

I sent my initial message which is at the very bottom of this thread on May
15, just 2 weeks ago. I received a prompt reply and on May 21, only 9 days
ago, I received an email saying that the team was going to look into making
improvements. This is definitely an example where a company seems to take
accessibility seriously and I hope others on the list who travel for
business and leisure will give this app a try and, if it works better, use
it to book hotels. So far doing the initial search is easy and also
selecting a room and completing the booking is easy. It's mostly browsing
through the list of search results that is slow and sluggish.

 

I'll post a review once the update is out and I have a chance to check it
out.

 

 

Regards,

Sieghard

Hello Stavros,

 

Thank you very much for this information, I am very grateful that the
Booking.com development team is going to take a look at Voiceover
accessibility. I once again would like to offer my help, if there is
anything I can do or if your team would like me to beta test any potential
versions with improvements I would be happy to do so.

 

Please note, I am switching my correspondence to my private email, I
initially sent my request from y business address accidently.

 

I will also post on the Viphone list that Booking.com has been responsive in
this and while there is not yet an improved version, I really do appreciate
the fact that you are looking into this.

 

 

Best regards,

Sieghard

Hello,

 

Thanks for acknowledging my message. I really hope Booking.com will take a
good look at the accessibility of the app. I recently learned from another
member of the Viphone google list that the Booking.com app was perfectly
accessible until about a year and a half or 2 years ago (he mentioned 2011),
but then a new update broke some of the accessibility. The same list member
mentioned that he now uses Wotif and I just downloaded the app and found it
much more accessible so for the time I will also most likely book my hotels
via Wotif.

 

You should know that I recently booked almost 20 nights of accommodation via
your Booking.com

RE: How many folks carry their iPhone without a case?

2013-05-30 Thread Rose Combs
I use a case, when I first got mine I had a case where it sort of sat
inside, it was the case for an older iPhone but I could clip it to a pocket.
I bought an Otterbox and have never looked back.  I have had at least two
times when I dropped the phone, once I was in the hospital and it got pushed
off a table that was high;  by an aide who thought it was cool to reorganize
everything on my husband's table when he was having a procedure done.
Recently I got tangled up in cables and pulled it off the desk, it landed on
my foot, but I am glad I have that protection and a lot of my coworkers ask
me where I got the case.

RE: How often do you change your IPhone?

2013-05-30 Thread Rose Combs
I charge mine every night unplugging it in the morning, making sure app
switcher is empty, then turn it off, plug it back in and usually I am set
for the day, once I was not, once I went to zero percent but usually I try
to at least once a month drop it to 10% before charging it again.  Always I
do that on a Thursday or Friday night as I work Sunday through Thursday.

Subject: How often do you charge your Iphone?

Hi list,
as the discussion about the cases has been going on and someone has
mentioned they have their Iphone on a charger when they are at work, I am
just wondering how often do you charge your Iphone?
Do you put it on a charger before going to bed and keep it there until the
morning?
Do you have it on a charger permanently when you stay at home?
Is there anyone who charges their Iphone more times a day?
When you are out at work/school or anywhere else, do you keep it on a
charger?
As for me, I charge my Iphone almost every day, but it depends what I do
with it.
I always let battery go down to 1% and then put it on a charger. Once a
month I let it go down to 0%.
Looking forward to your opinions.

 The robo dialers still call the number but never do they fax anything which I

have to let you go here.  I'm on my day-time minutes.  That's like saying, your

when if you wanted to call anybody you just called them and talked as long as

RE: a bit confused re: I pod touch on apple store

Hi Keith,

russ listed most of the features of the iPod Touch Fifth Generation and you
definitely do not want to buy a Fourth Generation iPod Touch any more even
though you can still do so, but I think only a 16 Gig model and it is only
about $50 cheaper than a 16 Gig iPod Touch Fifth Gen. However, the much
faster processor, the much better camera and SIRI alone make it totally
worthwhile to buy the Fifth Gen.

When past mistakes endeavour,
to break the heart in two,,
seek then the mighty lion,
and let him carry you.,

 

When hope is but a daydream,
and nightmares claim the mind,,
seek the devil whispering,
and bid him get behind.

 

When legal be the laws of men,
and terror claims the heart,,
seek the strength which dwells within,
and n'er let it depart.

 

When hungry grow the jaws of wrath,,
fed by wrong demand,,
seek then the cleansing touch of God,
and shelter in his hand.

 

Never stroke the beast of vengeance,
lest it bite you true,,
seek the High Protector,
and let him care for you.

Re: a bit confused re: I pod touch on apple store

2013-05-30 Thread MamaPeach
There is an iPod Touch 4th generation and there is an iPod Touch 5th 
generation. They differ in size and sound quality. I have both of the iPod 
Touch 4th and 5th generations and I prefer to use the iPod 5th. The sound on 
the 4th generation is much lower and much tinnier sounding. If using 
headphones, the 4th generation is great, but listening to it simply through 
the speaker, in my opinion, the sound is horrible. I would highly recommend 
the 5th generation.

Re: Apple just approved All Access: Talking Menus & More

2013-05-30 Thread Robert Fenton
Hello Todd: 

Let me start by thanking you for providing an update so quickly to incorporate 
our feedback. I can't wait to try out the new version. 

In your note, you also asked for additional feature suggestions for the app 
moving forward. I have one for you but I suspect it will take a lot of work to 
implement. The suggestion expands upon your current functionality to have the 
phone speak an order to service staff if the user of the product is deaf. 

Many of us travel to foreign countries for business or pleasure. In many cases, 
I am not conversant enough in the local language to order food and such. Could 
a translation feature be built into this app both to allow us to read the menus 
and to voice our order in several languages to be heard by the service staff? 

Thank you for considering this request. I certainly understand if this goes 
beyond your vision of the product.

Re: Serious help with syncing

2013-05-30 Thread Woody Anna Dresner
Hello,

Since you are syncing your iPHone contacts with iCloud, the easiest thing would 
be to have your computer sync contacts with iCloud as well. I don't know the 
specifics of how to set this up on a PC, but the basics are to install the 
iCloud Control Panel, which you can get through the Apple Update program, which 
you can find in your Start menu. Once you have this control panel installed, go 
into it and choose to sync your Outlook contacts with iCloud. Then whenever you 
make changes on either the iPHone or computer, they will be copied to the other 
device automatically.

If you don't want to go this route, connect your iPHone to your computer. You 
may want to make the sidebar, formerly called the Source list, appear, if it's 
not onscreen already. I believe the command for this is Control-S in Windows. 
Find your iPHone in the list. Tab until you reach the Info radio button, and 
press the Spacebar to select it. Keep tabbing until you reach options for 
controlling what is synced, and choose to sync contacts with your computer. Tab 
to Apply, and press Enter.

Best,
Anna

Re: a bit confused re: I pod touch on apple store

2013-05-30 Thread Russ Kiehne

This info from Apple should answer your questions:
. It looks like an  iPhone 5
, with the same 4 inch, 1136 x 640 pixel display. But the 5th-generation
iPod touch
doesn’t make phone calls, it’s even thinner than the new iPhone, and it has
a last-generation processor.
that’s because the new iPod touch has a faster processor, bigger screen, and 
a

better camera, among other improvements.
The 5th-gen iPod touch measures 6.1mm (0.24 inches) thick and weighs 88
grams (3.1 ounces). It’s the thinnest and lightest iPod touch to date, even
though it has the largest screen yet.
It’s powered by an Apple A5 processor — much like the iPad 2 or the iPhone
4. That’s a step up from the 4th generation iPod touch, which has an A4 
chip,

but it falls short of the new A6 processor in the iPhone 5. Apple says that
chip offers twice the graphics and CPU performance of an A5.
Apple says the iPod touch is the “world’s most popular” media player, and
also portable gaming device — and the new dual core chip should help boost
gaming performance.
The new iPod touch has a 5MP camera, LED flash and autofocus — features
which weren’t available on the fixed-focus camera on the last iPod touch.
Apple is also included a panorama mode and support for 1080p HD video
recording with the rear camera.
Like the iPhone 5, there’s a new FaceTime HD front-facing camera which can
shoot 720p video, and the company has added an optional wrist strap which 
comes
in handy if you plan to use the iPod touch as a point-and-shoot camera, or 
hand

it to your kid for mobile gaming.
Apple is adding Bluetooth 4.0 to the iPod touch, along with dual-channel
802.11a/b/g/n WiFi.
The iPod touch also now gets AirPlay mirroring support, letting you pair the
device with an Apple TV to stream games, videos, or other content to a TV.
And for the first time, you can now use Siri voice recognition on the iPod
touch.

The usual way we would do it would be to double tap on the name of the

Richard and Fred, 

 

I just changed my location, virtually, to Portland, Oregon and also 
Portland, Maine and found lots of restaurants with menus.

 

In fact, almost 100% of the Portland, Oregon restaurants have menus.  
Here are more than a dozen that show up on the first screen and they all have 
menus.

 

Daily Grill, Park Bistro, Starbucks, Eurotrash, Ben & Jerry's, Veggie 
Grill, Restaurant Service, Saint Cupcake, McDonalds, The Melting Pot, The 
Morning Star Cafe, Little Big Burger, 

Blitz Pearl, Seattle's Best Coffee, Higgins Restaurant & Bar, etc.

 

For Portland, Maine, it was probably 50% of the restaurants on the 
initial screen that have menus.  By providing info for all of the restaurants, 
you at least get access to their website (which may have a menu), phone, 
directions, twitter, etc.  But the goal is to get every restaurant's menu 
online.

 

Can you provide me, by email to t...@allaccessmenus.com the names of 
some restaurants that don't have menus?  Maybe there is a usability change we 
need to make, so the menus show up better... because in many cases, they are 
there.  Over a million of them in fact.  And if you find a restaurant that 
doesn't have their menu in the app, we would love your help in asking them to 
be included.  It's free for the restaurants, too, to have their menu in the 
database.  This is really a community effort with little downside.  Our 
database provider can even 'scrape' their website to import the menu!

 

Thanks!
