RE: KNFB Reader, First Impressions
Hi Ron, The app is in the Canadian app store since I bought it first thing this morning. A search for KNFB did the trick for me, first result was Blio and then came KNFB Reader. Are you just typing it in and then check the matches or are you typing in KNFB and then double tap on the Search button. I find it is often much easier to find things if you tap the Search button and I have gotten used to always doing so.

I searched for KNFB and didn't find anything. Perhaps its not in the Canadian app store yet. I, for sure am getting it when I can find it Ron Danvers From: viphone@googlegroups.com [mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Jonathan Mosen Sent: Thursday, September 18, 2014 4:05 AM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: KNFB Reader, First Impressions I've spent the last half hour or so playing with KNFB Reader on my iPhone 5s. I couldn't be more impressed. I read my son's school report, which it got word perfect even when it came to reading tables. It read a glossy pizza menu fairly well. It read the page of a book perfectly, and it read a letter I received in the mail. The feedback one gets via vibration to line up the picture is incredibly helpful. You can use the field of view report if you need to for even more information about camera positioning and angle. And, it's fast. Very fast, between taking a picture and getting speech. It's early days but this has actually exceeded my expectations. Certainly it's possible to use other apps, but I've found nothing this simple, fast, or accurate without any additional aids.

RE: knfb reader on Iphone 4s?
The 4S still has an 8 MP camera just as the 5, 5C, 5S,6 and 6 Plus do. Only difference is that it has a sensor with slightly smaller pixels and it doesn't have the true tone flash. Since the pixels seem to primarily be important when it comes to low light and the true tone flash is mostly important to cover colours better, I doubt this would make much of a difference. Yes, I know KNFB isn't officially supporting the 4S and they justified their late release by saying the camera on the iPhone never was good enough, but while I love the app I am not sure if I entirely trust their explanations. Their public relations guy, Jim, said some things which are simply not correct and I thought almost indicated a certain amount of ignorance. But it's all good, the app is out and just as Jonathan already said, it also exceeded my expectations although I never did spring for the $1,500 to get KNFB Reader on a Nokia years ago.

Re: Using iTunes to update will take far less space

RE: trouble entering a gift card on itunes
Hi Steve, If you have an iPhone it's much easier. Here is what I do: 1. Open the App Stor 2. Touch the bottom left of the screen and put focus on the Featured tab. Make sure it is selected and swipe left 4 times from there. First time you get to the Terms and Conditions, second swipe goes to your Apple Id, third on to Send Gift and the fourth to Redeem. 3. Double tap on the Redeem button, it will ask you to sign in with your password, do so. 4. Most iTunes gift cards can be scanned. Tap on the Use Camera button after you scratch the card to reveal the gift card code. Now just hold the card in front of the backfacing camera and check to see if the code was captured. If so tap on the Redeem button at the top right of the screen and you are done. If not there is an edit field where you can enter the code manually.

RE: For People wanting to downgrade back to 7.1.2
You can get the IPSW file at www.IPSWDownloader.com Please make sure you know exactly which phone model you have so you can download the appropriate file. It is not enough to know that you have an iPhone 5C or 5S since there are different models of these for different markets/carriers. The model can be found on the back of the phone, it will be a letter and 4 numbers, e.g. A1533. Once the file is downloaded you must first unzip/extract it to get to the IPSW file you need.

Hi Krister. Basically what continuity is is you can start something like writing an email on one device and continue what you were doing on another. For example, If I started writing this email on my iPhone and I'm near my Mac, if my Mac's running OS X Yosemite, I can continue this very same email on there. However, iOS 8 and Yosemite are still in beta so those features aren't available to us yet. I'm with you though.

Re: Moving apps from the row above the dock (was Re: have anyone noticed this serious problem with iOS8 on the 4S?)

I haven’t been following this thread completely, but here’s what I’ve found with deleting / moving apps. When I deleted two apps successfully after just installing the update yesterday, I found that the Iphone won’t enter app edit mode if you double tap and hold on an icon above the doc. However, if I did the same double tap and hold on another icon on the screen, I went into edit mode as usual. From there, I could delete the app I needed that was above the doc and move / delete as usual—so this is a ffairly minor annoyance, but the workaround is really straightforward. HTH, Chris.

If you use iTunes, connect your phone, transfer purchases, sync and backup. 2. Now remove all apps from the app switcher 3. Go to Settings, General, Reset and double tap “Reset Network Settings”. This will reset your network setting to the factory default and reboot your phone. You will have to connect to your WiFi again and enter your password after the phone reboots. 4.

Hummmnmnm, the logic of it threw me too, so are we to understand the app can't learn to rotate and process the image the other way? I know some of the smarter pc based reader apps did this. Kertsweil springs to mind. Getting range or distence right would help too; wonder if they recommend a viewing distence for this?

I found that I wasn't holding the phone in a level position. With tilt guidance on, the phone will vibrate until you are holding the phone in a level state. This is very useful, particularly for one who has no vision. ONce the phone was level, I go excellent results.

Re: Getting results with KNFB reader
Ok i have listened to the podcast and should know this, but i can't figure out where the flash settings are. /Krister 18 sep 2014 kl. 23:45 skrev Michael Feir michael.f...@gmail.com: Hello Olivia. So far, I've found the automatic flash setting works best. It all depends on the light conditions where you are. Also, make certain the document is flat on the table. Use the field of view report to rotate the phone such that it's as close to 0 degrees as possible. I've found that the larger the document you're trying to scan, the higher off the table you have to hold the phone so that it all fits in the camera's view. Tuilt is also very important. You may find the tuilt guidance setting helpful. This causes your phone to vibrate less often the flatter you hold it over the page. If you feel no vibration and the field view report says all four edges are visible, you should get a good result. Without being there and feeling what you're doing, I'm not sure what else to suggest. I've had splendid results so far. Best of luck to you. On 9/18/14, Olivia Norman olivianor...@gmail.com wrote: How is everyone getting great results and what am I doing wrong?

KNFB Reader Help?
Hey Everyone: I excitedly purchased the KNFB reader app yesterday. However, I seem to be having a lot of trouble with it. I have tried to do several scans but can't seem to get good results. I tried holding the camera sideways. I tried holding it straight up and down. I tried holding it with the camera lens facing down towards the page. I have the tilted guidance setting on. Every once in a while, it will stop vibrating and I will try to take a picture, and sometimes it will kind of read some text but it's very jumbled and while it gets some words it often doesn't make sense. However, I keep reading how so many others are getting great results. Just last week, I was able to witness a demonstration of this app, and it worked great. I don't have much printed material around at the moment, so have been trying to scan a random page from a paperback book. Does lighting make a difference? How do you hold the phone to get the best results? For those who got great results on their first try, what did you do and how did you hold the phone? I even listened to the Applevis podcast. I was just initially so excited about this app when I heard the demonstrations of how well it worked and it's not seeming to work very well for me. What am I doing wrong?

Re: KNFB Reader Help?
One technique that might help you is to put the phone flat on the page you want to scan with the back facing camera in the center of the page. Then grasp the phone with your thumbs and little fingers on the four corners of the phone and raise the phone up trying to keep it flat and the camera still centered on the page. For a 8.5 by 11 inch page, you want to raise the phone about 12 inches above the page. Then, the field of view report should tell you that all four corners of the page are in view. Then take the picture. With practice, you will be able to estimate the distance above the page and getting the camera centered over the page. This is how I got good scans with Prizmo before getting the standscan pro and then the Giraffe Reader. I still have not purchased KNFB Reader, but with all the rave reviews, I may decide it is worth it.

Many, if not most sighted people don't even look at their keyboard when they are typing on the iPhone. Whether they realize it or not, they are actually watching the output of what they are typing on the screen, but are in fact, typing purely by muscle memory and familiarity of the keyboard with their fingers or thumbs. I have a sighted friend and neighbor who, I swear, has to set some sort of speed record with her ability to type quickly on the iPhone. She most definitely isn't watching what she is typing, and the clicking sound that accompanies each keystroke simply can't keep up with her movement.

Hopefully this space will be recovered after the installation, so in the end it should end up the same, the issue may be that some users may not have enough space on the device for the actual download. Original message: Someone on this list has already reported this, but I just wanted to second it. I was just reading an article about the number of people who are using social media to complain to apple about how much space it used on the device to download and update iOS 8. The article reminded people that using iTunes would take far less room on the device. I don’t have the numbers handy, but it is a significant difference.

Re: touch typing with ios8
yes, it's a Voiceover function. It allows you to tap the letter you want to use once you reach it. It's kind of similar to typing on a keyboard. I think it feels quite natural, but I'm experiencing some issues with it. It doesn't work for entering my passcode.

Many, if not most sighted people don't even look at their keyboard when they are typing on the iPhone. Whether they realize it or not, they are actually watching the output of what they are typing on the screen, but are in fact, typing purely by muscle memory and familiarity of the keyboard with their fingers or thumbs. I have a sighted friend and neighbor who, I swear, has to set some sort of speed record with her ability to type quickly on the iPhone.

Re: I updated my iPhone five ass to iOS 8 with the phone this morning is there a way to redo the update on iTunes to take up less space?
Unless something has changed, the downloaded file is still on your computer, on a mac at least, I think it's under libraries, application support files, itunes, or something similar. You may want to check this and delete the file if it's still there. Original message: Hi, once you have the OS installed, it takes no less space no matter how you did it. It's just that the phone needs some room for temporary storage while it's actually doing the update. That's why some people have ended up deleting quite a bit of space to allow the update to happen.

Hi, In the Settings, iTunes and AppStore preferences, make sure you have unchecked both applications and updates.

I know what you're saying. I have labels all over my house for things that are not accessible, but I don't make my money washing cloths or cooking in my microwave. I know, that doesn't change the small percent of the population we are. I understand that. I also understand that there has been a steady decline in Apple's accessibility. I know this from talking to a lot of Mac users who are now deciding if it is time for them to go back to Windows. Again, I am mostly talking about people whose jobs depend on using their computer or device. Again, that doesn't change the percentage, it was very hard to read that list. There are those who try to brow beat companies into being accessible. I have often thought of them as just whining and crying, oh we poor blind people. AAnd that is what some of them do. Others, take a more coorperative approach. So there are extremes on either side. Some wait for apple to offer them the same magic sighted users have, while others try to convince the company to do a better job. This is what the beta team does. The beta team evidently had some very smart people who were blind on it. No, we still haven't changed the percentage of people who are blind in the world, but they put in a lot of work trying to help Apple develop a product that would work well for us. In other words, there needs to be some people in the blindness community that tries to work against the flow. You may call us impatient if you wish. You may think we don't understand what it is like to not have accessibility at our fingertips. I bet I am older than most everyone on this list. Try having to hire 80 readers in Graduate school who read books on my 12 reel to reel recorders. It took about as much time to organize the readers and the books as it did to read them. And we still haven't changed the percentage. We never will. But that doesn't mean we don't try to make things more equal. I don't believe there is any shame in that. So, let's not blame people who are pushing the envelope as being whiners and impatient. Some of those people have been the ones to get us where we are today.

I know what you're saying. I have labels all over my house for things that are not accessible, but I don't make my money washing cloths or cooking in my microwave. I know, that doesn't change the small percent of the population we are. I understand that. I also understand that there has been a steady decline in Apple's accessibility. I know this from talking to a lot of Mac users who are now deciding if it is time for them to go back to Windows. Again, I am mostly talking about people whose jobs depend on using their computer or device. Again, that doesn't change the percentage, it was very hard to read that list. There are those who try to brow beat companies into being accessible. I have often thought of them as just whining and crying, oh we poor blind people. AAnd that is what some of them do. Others, take a more coorperative approach. So there are extremes on either side. Some wait for apple to offer them the same magic sighted users have, while others try to convince the company to do a better job. This is what the beta team does. The beta team evidently had some very smart people who were blind on it. No, we still haven't changed the percentage of people who are blind in the world, but they put in a lot of work trying to help Apple develop a product that would work well for us. In other words, there needs to be some people in the blindness community that tries to work against the flow. You may call us impatient if you wish. You may think we don't understand what it is like to not have accessibility at our fingertips. I bet I am older than most everyone on this list. Try having to hire 80 readers in Graduate school who read books on my 12 reel to reel recorders. It took about as much time to organize the readers and the books as it did to read them. And we still haven't changed the percentage. We never will. But that doesn't mean we don't try to make things more equal. I don't believe there is any shame in that. So, let's not blame people who are pushing the envelope as being whiners and impatient. Some of those people have been the ones to get us where we are today.

RE: App store issue in IOS 8.
Hi Mária, Maybe the button is not actually on the screen and there are issues with Voiceover not doing anything when you double tap on links or buttons which aren't visible on the screen. Tell your friend to try and do a 3-finger swipe up until she gets to the last page as I assume that the I Agree button would be at the end. Then she should try again to double tap on it.

You can also touch 4 fingers near the bottom of the screen and that will almost always go to the I Agree button as well. Sometimes I have to do this gesture twice before it works, but it does work.

Re: Ios 8 voiceover problem with Safari
Hi, I listened to the mp3 and this reminds me of an issue I have in iOS 7. It happens when I'm doing Google searching, it is as if there is nothing VoiceOver can focus on. Flicking does nothing. What works for me is to tap the status bar at the top. Tap the time or something, this seems to give VoiceOver focus again. I usually put my finger in the middle of the screen to begin flicking. *Shrugs,* it has helped me out in Google searches, maybe it'll work on the Kindle page.
