I brought Braille Touch and though I liked it I feel it has been six months now and still no grad 2 braille which we were promised.

Yes, the solution is to go to the app on your home screen or in its folder and double-tap on the app. The act of attempting to launch the app will cause iOS to go and download the update.

mBraille, JMO
Ok, still not tried it, nneed to update to iOs 6.1 or something first. But, I read the .txt from end to end. If it does all that efficiently and reliably, it seems to be the answer to nearly all input issues. Will displace BrailleTouch at a stroke if it works that well. Itching to get sweaty little fingers on it, and likely to sell the Rii BT keyboard on the strength of it. Addresses and resolves nearly all the primary issues discussed ad-nausium about BrailleTouch. I'm not picking on them, I got that and like it, suspect I'm gonna like this better though. I note at least 2 well known listers here as primary testers, so they know what they're on about. so well done all, thanks to all, and on the read alone, reckon it has to be worth the $30.

MouseKick for iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch
Hello VIPhone-list, I would like to point your interest to my new iOS app MouseKick. It is a game, where you have to tap appearing mice in a cheese as fast as you can. It can be played by both, sighted and visually impaired users. Apart from the nice animation, the mice also do have their individual sounds, which guide us to the right position on screen. There is a training mode to learn those sounds. To get an impression of the MouseKick-Sounds, please watch the Trailer on YouTube at: http://youtu.be/tLe4ygQA-xM You can play various game modes, in normal or in blind mode. If you know the sounds, the blind mode is a bit easier to play. The app is fully accessible with VoiceOver. MouseKick can be found on the App Store at: http://AppStore.com/MouseKick Additional information can be found on the support web site at: http://visorApps.com/MouseKick If you have questions, hints, or comments, please contact me over the list or off-list at supp...@visorapps.com. Any feedback is very much appreciated. If you like the app, please recommend it to your friends and rate it in the App Store. Have fun! Jan --- MouseKick - The mice are coming!

RE: Apps stuck in update
Hello, I just wanted to point out again what I said yesterday and what David confirmed. If an app doesn't finish updating just wait a bit and restart the update process. This is not done from inside the App Store. Once you tap on Update that's it, you can close the app store. If the app is stuck on a certain percentage or even at 0 percent or if it says Waiting, then simply double tap on the app as if you want to open it. Then wait because it can take up to 10 or 20 seconds or maybe even 30 seconds before the download restarts. Do not double tap again because this will only Pause the process again. If there is a problem you will get a message and if that is the case just leave it alone and try again 10 minutes later or the next morning or whatever since eventually it will work. There is definitely no reason to write to accessibility support since this has nothing to do with accessibility and at best any tech support person from Apple would tell you what I just said above.

Re: MBraille -- how to buy it?
Thanks for the tips. What I ended up doing was selecting facebook from the menu and upgrading that way. One of you who is in contact with the developer may want to ask that upgrading be made more intuitive or have it explained in the help file. If it's in there already I couldn't find it. In my opinion, purchasing the upgrade should be among the easiest and most intuitive functions. Thanks again. Kimber On 6/27/13, Rebecca Ilniski rilni...@gmail.com wrote: Hi Kimber.

Re: Apps stuck in update
Hi, I understand what you guys are saying about stuck updates on apps. However, that is what I tried with dropbox yesterday. It would not finish updating no matter what I did. This is why I finally deleted it and reinstalled. I sure hope this isn't a new serious bug in IOS. Thanks.

RE: Apps stuck in update
Hi Dan, Since iOS hasn't been updatedin some time I doubt this is a bug of any sort. I think it is probably either related to a slow connection or the app store being super busy and I have never had a situation where an app didn't update eventually.

RE: Skype update
Hi Ron, Interesting how updates show up in the app store at different times. I had a few updates last night, but the Skype update showed up for me only this morning. Anyhow, switching to speakerphone seems to be the same as in the previous version which is where it was simplified. I just started a call and right above the End Call button which is at the very bottom right above the home key, are 4 buttons and from left to right they are: Earpiece, Mute, DialPad, Show Options Simply double tap on Earpiece and the call will instantly go to Speakerphone. The Earpiece button will now change into a Speakerphone button so in other words, it will always be named according to what is currently selected/active. When I connected my Apple Earpods, the button was called Headset instead of Earpiece and when I used my Bluetooth headset it was called Bluetooth Headset. One thing you can't seem to do any more is to switch from Bluetooth Headset to the Earpiece since the button seems to toggle only between Bluetooth Headset and Speakerphone so I guess one has to turn off the Bluetooth headset and let the call revert to earpiece that way which it will do nicely. Apart from that the most recent update from yesterday/today depending on where you are seems to work nicely, there seem to be no accessibility issues and in fact in the What's New section of the update Accessibility improvements to video messaging were mentioned.

Learning Ally App
Hi Everyone, When using the Learning Ally app, does anyone know of a way to rewind just a few seconds to catch something that you missed? There is no rewind button but I thought that there might be some sort of work around that I haven't thought of. I have mentioned this to Learning Ally customer support more than once and they say that it will be added in a future update but they have been saying that for almost two years and nothing yet. Alternatively, is there another app that will play Learning Ally content? As far as I know there isn't but it never hurts to ask.

More Skype Update observations, was: Skype update
Hello List, I really like the current interface of Skype when you open a Contact. It is very straight forward, everything is beautifully labeled and read by Voiceover. You now have just 4 buttons for call options (in the case of a Skype Contact) and they are in 2 rows with a left and right button in each row as follows: Video Call button, Voice Call button IM button, More button When you double tap on the More button, you get either 2 or 3 choices and a cancel button. You always have the options for Send Photo and Send Video Message and if you have also saved a phone number for that contact you have, in addition to these options, an option to Send SMS. If your Contact is a Skype Out number, e.g. just a name with a phone number, you have only 2 buttons: Voice Call button, SMS button If you swipe right past the SMS button you do hear Voiceover say Video Message and IM, but it does not say button and you don't hear these options when you move your finger around the screen (unless you do it really fast and eradic), but either way, they are not announced as buttons since you can't do a video call or send an IM to just a phone number, I guess Voiceover reads the label but they are not actually buttons. One thing I noticed for the first time is that the DialPad is very slow. If you manually dial a phone number, the dial tone plays quite long and after it stops it takes a good second and then Voiceover announces the number you double tapped or split tapped and it will say paste for some reason. If you try to split tap or double tap another number before this has all finished it doesn't work so each number takes about 2 seconds before you can dial the next which means dialing a 10-digit phone number is a painfully slow process. I'll report this to Skype and if some others do as well hopefully they will do something about it. I really wish Apple would allow VoIP apps to allow for touch mode dialing like you can do in the stock Phone app instead of forcing us to double or split tap each number. Luckily this slow response is not happening when you activate the DialPad to dial numbers during a call, but you still have to double or split tap each number. Also, if you activate the DialPad during a call or even tap on the Show Options button, there seems to be no apparent way to dismiss the DialPad or pop up window with Show Options. In other words, if you have the DialPad active and you want to end the call the End Call button is not there, just the DialPadwhich makes for a nice clean look, but might baffle some people. I tried the Go Back gesture which is that z-shaped or zigzag gesture with 2 fingers and it works well to get rid of the DialPad or the Show Options choices. OK, I think that's all I noticed and thought I post about. In short, the Skype app is beautiful, fully accessible with a couple of extremely minor flaws but which can be worked around.

It is very straight forward, everything is beautifully labeled and read by Voiceover. You now have just 4 buttons for call options (in the case of a Skype Contact) and they are in 2 rows with a left and right button in each row as follows: Video Call button, Voice Call button IM button, More button When you double tap on the More button, you get either 2 or 3 choices and a cancel button. You always have the options for “Send Photo” and “Send Video Message” and if you have also saved a phone number for that contact you have, in addition to these options, an option to “Send SMS”. If your Contact is a Skype Out number, e.g. just a name with a phone number, you have only 2 buttons: Voice Call button, SMS button If you swipe right past the SMS button you do hear Voiceover say “Video Message” and “IM”, but it does not say button and you don’t hear these options when you move your finger around the screen (unless you do it really fast and eradic), but either way, they are not announced as buttons since you can’t do a video call or send an IM to just a phone number, I guess Voiceover reads the label but they are not actually buttons. One thing I noticed for the first time is that the DialPad is very slow. If you manually dial a phone number, the dial tone plays quite long and after it stops it takes a good second and then Voiceover announces the number you double tapped or split tapped and it will say “paste” for some reason. If you try to split tap or double tap another number before this has all finished it doesn’t work so each number takes about 2 seconds before you can dial the next which means dialing a 10-digit phone number is a painfully slow process. I’ll report this to Skype and if some others do as well hopefully they will do something about it. I really wish Apple would allow VoIP apps to allow for touch mode dialing like you can do in the stock Phone app instead of forcing us to double or split tap each number. Luckily this slow response is not happening when you activate the DialPad to dial numbers during a call, but you still have to double or split tap each number. Also, if you activate the DialPad during a call or even tap on the “Show Options” button, there seems to be no apparent way to dismiss the DialPad or pop up window with Show Options. In other words, if you have the DialPad active and you want to end the call the End Call button is not there, just the DialPadwhich makes for a nice clean look, but might baffle some people. I tried the “Go Back” gesture which is that z-shaped or zigzag gesture with 2 fingers and it works well to get rid of the DialPad or the Show Options choices. OK, I think that’s all I noticed and thought I post about. In short, the Skype app is beautiful, fully accessible with a couple of extremely minor flaws but which can be worked around.

Hi, you can have a list of all contacts, on line contacts, skype contacts, saved phone numbers, recently contacted, blocked contacts, iPhone contacts, etc. Just make sure you are back to the beginning of the Skype home screen.

What can I do? I sure don't want to pay for MBRAILLE twice. Grrr. no confirmation that it was downloaded to the app, and then iTunes says they won't send because not all is well with the information.

help with zello
Hello folks, I hope someone here can help me with zello. I am trying to find a way of finding a toggle where I do not have to keep my finger on the hold to talk button. If I want to give a talk for half an hour or so, it gets tiring to keep my finger on the hold to talk button. I know that the android zello app has a toggle to switch this button so that one can simply keep the microphone on until the person is done with talking. Is this feature available in the iPhone app?

What can I do? I sure don't want to pay for MBRAILLE twice. Grrr. no confirmation that it was downloaded to the app, and then iTunes says they won't send because not all is well with the information. Any help appreciated. Reggie and Allegra -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the VIPhone Google Group.

Re: mbraille is available
No but am I right in thinking the developers themselves are going to do one? I may do one in the future as well as I see great potential in this app compared to say BrailleTouch.

Re: Tap Tap See couldn't read one thing so used face time to get it done
That's because they are two different sorts of apps. I own both of those apps. I use talking Goggles to read what's on the screens of my washing machine and dryer. They both sit on pedestals and are front-loaders. When they are running, they can vibrate slightly which moves the screen very slightly and with a still camera shot it probably be much like trying to hold iPhone still wile trying to scan OCR. I've tried Tap Tap See a number of times and could not get it to read the screen at all but talking goggles in video mode can. Now on the other hand, I've spent many an hour trying to find stuff that Tap Tap See couldn't identify and failed. I have a wall clock in my living room. I thought for sure I got that sucker now. Not! Not only did Tap Tap See say that was a wall clock, but it said picture is Spartan Wall Clock I said to my sighted son what's a Spartan wall clock. He said, I don't know dad but let me look at the clock. Then he starts chuckling. Dad, Spartan is the brand name of the clock at the top of the face. So I moved to my Hammond Organ and thought, let me see it get this one right. Picture is classic Hammond Organ So, two different kinds of apps. Both are must-haves for any blind iPhone user. - Original Message - From: Sieghard Weitzel To: viphone@googlegroups.com Sent: Wednesday, June 26, 2013 11:08 PM Subject: RE: Tap Tap See couldn't read one thing so used face time to get it done Hi Teresa, You should try Talking Goggles in video mode if Tap Tap See doesn't work.

Re: mbraille is available
As ever, it's a perception and practice thing, I noted that in the manual, and it was spelled out as clear as they could do it. More confuses, less is too vague. The ergonomics of it seem right in so much as your forearms do point in at an angle to form a V, so the key positions are defined where your fingers would naturaly fall on the screen. That is - your third fingers are up near the furthest corners, and first fingers quite near the centre nearest you; so keys are defined as diagonal stripes in the directions your fingers more or less point.

Re: mbraille is available
UHello Jen and others, When beginning to use this app, I too couldn't get the nack of using the table mode. My preference is to have my index fingers used for dots 3-6 and the ring fingers for dots 1-4. I also have the layout set to away. I can still braille with the phone in landscape position and the phone in a horizontal plane, but not resting totally on a flat surface. I hope this makes sense. May be Harri can shed some light on the table mode and how to use it properly.

Re: mbraille is available
First, I will say I hope Braille Touch can get their upgrade to contracted braille done as I don't want to turn around and spend 30 after having gotten Braille Touch. Now to your issue with the dots. With the free version at least, you want to have the home button on your right which means the volume buttons will be pointed to the ceiling. If you have the home button to the right and you have dots 3 and 6 on the top, check the settings and make sure you didn't turn on the layout that flips the dots.

In prior Keynote addresses, they always mentioned accessibility changes, improvements, etc. Siri is getting a new voice, but that has nothing to do with accessibility. In fact, one thing they mentioned that does not sound very good from an accessibility stand point is the automatic updating of apps. If they don't allow us to disable that feature, there will be no way to avoid updating an app that has broken accessibility.

RE: Can an iPod with a Reciever Use GPS apps?
It depends on what GPS app you will be running on an iPod Touch. Something like Navigon has all of its maps loaded onto the iDevice, therefore no internet connection is needed. Other GPS apps, like the sometime-to-be-released Seeing Eye GPS app from Sendero will require an internet connection. Since an iPod can only connect to the internet via WiFi any GPS app requiring the internet will not be much use out on the road. It's true that GPS apps get location information not just through the GPS receiver and the signal it receives from GPS satellites, but also by tapping into cell tower location information. However, I use an iPhone with no cell plan and the cell phone receiver turned off. And, I find using Navigon plenty accurate enough for my needs. HTH, Jeff At 08:54 PM 6/27/2013, you wrote: Hi.

If a person buys a GPS app that downloads the maps to the device like Navigon or Tom Tom, then an iPod Touch can be used for GPS. I believe there are two or three blue tooth GPS receivers now that work with iDevices. I have not seen or used any of them. Duel Electronics and BadElf are two I remember discussions about a year or more ago. amazon sold them both and I'm thinking there is another, but I can't remember the name. I'd suggest a search on Amazon for blue tooth gps receiver and Apple to see what is currently there.

Re: Which Version of Skype Do You All Use?
Hello, It does not matter which version of an app other people are using. If you are getting the app for the first time, you can only use the latest version. Skype is accessible. I use the latest version.

RE: Which Version of Skype Do You All Use?
Hi Donnie, If you are installing Skype or, for that matter, any app for the first time you don't have a choice as to which version you can use. Whenever you install an app the most current version of that app will be installed. Once an app is installed and the App Store let's you know that there is an update, then you can choose to install or not install the update. You even can install the update and f you are not happy with it reinstall the previous version provided you are syncing your apps with iTunes and that you either haven't updated the app in question yet on the computer or made a physical copy of the app prior to updating. This you would do by going into your Mobile Applications folder which is located in your iTunes Media folder and then you just find the app and use the Windows copy and paste command to create a copy of the app. Then if you updated and decide you rather use the previous version you delete the app both from your Mobile Applications folder as well as from your iPhone, then you rename the copy by removing the - copy at the end of the file name and then resync your iPod Touch with iTunes. As for Skype, you can very safely use the version which is currently in the app store, version 4.9.336. Ever since the initial release of version 4.0 the Skype app has been fully accessible and the current version works beautifully. I did just post a small review this morning so you can check the list or the list archives for that.

RE: Can an iPod with a Reciever Use GPS apps?
Hi Donnie, I just thought I mention that there is no such thing as a data plan for an iPod Touch. There is no iPod Touch model that is 3G/LTE capable, only way to access any data with an iPod Touch is via WiFi so that of course wouldn't be an option for use with any GPS app that requires data. As Jeff already said, your only option would be an app such as Navigon which allows you to download the map data to your device. Apps such as BlindSquare, Ariadne GPS, Sendero LookAround etc. would not work. -Original Message- From: viphone@googlegroups.com [mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Dani L Pagador Sent: Thursday, June 27, 2013 8:55 PM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: RE: Can an iPod with a Reciever Use GPS apps?
