aromatherapy apps?

2015-03-14 Thread Shannon Dyer
Hi, all.

I'm looking for an app that lists essential oils and their various properties, 
uses, and safety information. Does anyone know of such an app that is 
accessible with voiceover?

Hi Chris,

To start with your question about the barometric sensor in the iPhone 6 
and 6 Plus, yes, they are there, but they are being used for elevation 
and you don't have access to them directly. I am not sure if Apple 
allows developers access to them since then somebody could I guess make 
an app where they display barometric pressure.

Now, as for the Netatmo weather station, it's basically yes to all your 
questions. If you buy the basic package for $180 you get 1 indoor and
1 outdoor module. The indoor module gives you indoor temperature, 
minimum and maximum indoor temperature from 12:01 AM to Midnight, 
indoor humidity, CO2 level, noise level in decibels and barometric 
pressure is displayed.

The outdoor module measures current temperature, minimum and maximum 
temperature, it gives you Feels Like temperature and also shows outdoor 
humidity.

You can buy up to 3 more additional indoor modules for $79/each if you 
want readings for other rooms/areas of your house, they are like the 
outdoor modules and give you everything except for noise level since 
that uses too much battery power and requires the main indoor module 
which needs to be plugged in.

Netatmo also offers a rain gauge which is of the tipping bucket design 
and which works great.It gives you total rainfall starting at 12:01 AM 
until Midnight, but if you want to know you have to check just before 
midnight because while the previous day's amount is there for sighted 
people, it is currently not accessible with Voiceover.

When Netatmo first came out it was almost completely inaccessible. I 
bought a station and contacted the company. Their head developer in 
Paris, France got a hold of me and we had several Skype conversations 
about accessibility, he made changes which I tested and the result was 
a very accessible app which gives you most readings, but not all of them.

Netatmo is also in the process of developing an Anemometer (a wind 
sensor) which would pretty much complete the stations capabilities.

Sieghard

ooo I'm a weather buff.
Would that weather station give me accessible 
indoor and outdoor readings, including accurate 
barometric pressure? I'd love to have accurate 
numbers for the severe storms we get here in 
summer, and possibly even contribute data to somewhere.

I last looked into weather stations before 
smartphones and wireless, so I have no idea what 
the state of things is currently.

Related question: Is it true there's a barometer 
in the newer iPhones? I have a 6 Plus.   If so, how do I read it?

It might be interesting to have it as an option within the app.  I use 
Talking Tuner several times a week to tune my harp.  I think the two things 
I would like to see most would be:

1.  Faster response
2.  The ability to use the app with a pick-up which could be cliped to the 
instrument for tuning in a situation where there is background noise.

 Hi Ioana. I think the deal to sign up for the iOS beta was that the first 
 hundred thousand people that signed up for the OS X Yosemite beta could 
 test the iOS betas. I was one of them so I'm now currently using the iOS 
 8.3 beta on my iPhone 5S.

Re: A Correction In Regards to iOS Beta Testing

2015-03-14 Thread Ioana Gandrabur
Hello,

Thanks for the link. However I still don't quite get how it's supposed to work. 
Here is what I am reading on that page.
The program is invite-only, but anyone can sign up online for the OS X Beta 
project via the Beta Software Program site, Apple said.

So I have signed up for the program but then how does it only work with an 
invitation? Still confused.

Thanks for any clarification you can give us.

All the best,

 Hi folks.
 
 I'm in touch with the guy behind Talking Tuner and other instrument tuning 
 apps.  I've asked him if it would be possible to include an audible tuning 
 feature which clicks slower or faster, as you approach or move away from the 
 target pitch while tuning.  In other words, very slow or no clicking would 
 be very much in tune and the clicking speeds up as you get more out of tune.
 
 A similar feature can be found in the Chromatia Software Tuner for the PC, 
 from FMJ Software.
 
 So, would people be interested in this, as in, actually buy an app which 
 contained this feature?  I have no idea if he's thinking of incporporating 
 this into Talking Tuner, or developing a separate app.  Personally, I think 
 it would be fine as a new feature for Talking Tuner, since that app is 
 already very simple.
 
 He's more interested in this idea than say, a tone generator, since there 
 are already lots of tone generating apps out there.
 
 Let me know if you would actually buy this app or be interested in it as a 
 feature if you already own Talking Tuner.
 
 Thanks

You'll notice too that depending on which voice you use, book length will 
change. I max out on Sally and the native iOS voice for example, but only stick 
around 480 to 500 words per minute for James and Ashley. This will 
significantly change the duration of the title.

RE: Just use Sonos, was: Stereo Receivers That Can Be Operated With An App?

2015-03-14 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
HiChristopher,

I also don't disagree with what you say although there is a big difference 
between wiring a room or house when its being built and trying to retrofit an 
existing house with in-wall wiring and speakers. When I bought my house in 1996 
it was a spec home, but I bought it early on so the inside walls had only been 
framed and not drywalled. I also went ahead at that point and installed speaker 
wires for built-in ceiling and in-wall speakers since I had an Onkyo receiver 
even back then which was capable of handling 2 independent zones. I had the 
main zone hooked into speakers in my living room with rear speakers built into 
the ceiling above the couch and the second zone was hooked up to a Niles 4-port 
speaker switch which provided signal to my bedroom, bathroom, office and 
kitchen. Of course those rooms wee not able to play independent sources 
although I did have in-line volume controls in each room so I could turn the 
volume all the way down if I didn't want sound in a particular room. Anyhow, 
the point is that I do come from a more traditional background and while a 
number of receivers nowadays are capable of being hooked up to a router and 
handling certain online subscriptions, I highly doubt any one of them handles 
as many as Sonos and in as accessible a format. A solution with such a receiver 
also does not give  you the flexibility and scalability that Sonos offers when 
it comes to expanding into different rooms without any fuss and the variety of 
Sonos gear nowadays makes the system just ever so appealing. I am now just 
waiting for their long-anticipated headset which I really hope is coming this 
year or if not this year then next year. Every time I talk to their support and 
mention it they tell me that they get a ton of requests for a headset and I'm 
quite sure it's going to become reality in the near future. Then I can enjoy 
all my Sonos system has to offer with perfect privacy and without disturbing my 
wife or anybody else. I know that I could get a really good wireless headset 
and hook it into one of the RCA or optical digital outputs of one of my Sonos 
players, but I don't want to spend the money for a really good wireless headset 
knowing Sonos will most likely have one which will be fully integrated into 
their system in the near future.

Also, Sonos has one other advantage which most receivers don't have and that is 
the fact that you get regular software updates which improve the system and 
which ensure that new music services are available. Deezer lossless, for 
example, is only available via Sonos at least at this point. I had a free 1 
year Deezer subscription which came with the purchase of my Playbar and just 
last week I received an offer from Deezer to upgrade to their Deezer Elite 
lossless service for a ridiculous $36.50 for an entire year. Normally that 
service is $20 a months and it is an awesome offer and the sound quality is 
amazing.


Regards,
Sieghard

I'm not pushing home theater receivers or knocking Sonos, and I listen 
carefully to everything Sieghard says, especially when it comes to audio, but I 
have one tiny point of clarification. Home theater receivers do come with the 
ability to tap into subscription music services and do support DLNA, so you can 
access your music from a network attached storage device. The Yamaha RX-V773 
receiver I own has these features, and it's obviously not unique.

We built our house a few years ago, and we had it wired for a 7.2 surround 
sound system in the family room, so we don't have big bulky speakers or wires 
anywhere. I've looked into Sonos recently, and I may still go that option in 
the future for some situations, but for my living room, I don't think it beats 
just dropping a network capable home theater receiver into my AV cabinet.

 Hi Arnold,

 My recommendation is Sonos. You said “stereo receiver” in your subject 
 so I assume you are looking for a receiver (amplifier with integrated
 tuner) for music playback. If you already own a set of good quality 
 speakers you want to use, then get a Sonos Connect 

Re: Adding a mailbox

2015-03-14 Thread Esther Levegnale
Hi, Desi,

Yes, there is a way to add a new mailbox to your list.  I have a Yahoo account 
and when I want to add a new mailbox, I back out of my Inbox and I land on the 
area where all my mailboxes are listed, such as Sent, Trash, Drafts, etc.  At 
the top right of your phone is an Edit button.  You double tap that and here 
again, all your mailboxes are listed.  At the end of the list, there's an Add 
Mailbox title.  You would double tap on that and this puts you into an edit 
field where you would type in a name for your new mailbox.  Then at the top 
right corner of your phone is the Done Button, which you would double tap when 
you are finished giving your new mailbox a name.  You could then move the 
appropriate messages into your new mailbox.  It's a neat feature, and I have 
several mailboxes that I've added and I can organize various messages in them.

I hope this helps you.

RE: Weather Stations

2015-03-14 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
Hi Neal,

What readings specifically would you be looking for? I listed what you get and 
as far as I am concerned one of the major ones I currently don't get (until 
they release their wind sensor) is wind speed.Otherwise I get pretty much all I 
care about, temperature, current as well as minimum and maximum for the day, 
humidity, pressure and, one I like, indoor CO2 levels.

Hi Chris,

To start with your question about the barometric sensor in the iPhone 6 
and 6 Plus, yes, they are there, but they are being used for elevation 
and you don't have access to them directly. I am not sure if Apple 
allows developers access to them since then somebody could I guess make 
an app where they display barometric pressure.

Now, as for the Netatmo weather station, it's basically yes to all your 
questions. If you buy the basic package for $180 you get 1 indoor and
1 outdoor module. The indoor module gives you indoor temperature, 
minimum and maximum indoor temperature from 12:01 AM to Midnight, 
indoor humidity, CO2 level, noise level in decibels and barometric 
pressure is displayed.

The outdoor module measures current temperature, minimum and maximum 
temperature, it gives you Feels Like temperature and also shows outdoor 
humidity.

You can buy up to 3 more additional indoor modules for $79/each if you 
want readings for other rooms/areas of your house, they are like the 
outdoor modules and give you everything except for noise level since 
that uses too much battery power and requires the main indoor module 
which needs to be plugged in.

Netatmo also offers a rain gauge which is of the tipping bucket design 
and which works great.It gives you total rainfall starting at 12:01 AM 
until Midnight, but if you want to know you have to check just before 
midnight because while the previous day's amount is there for sighted 
people, it is currently not accessible with Voiceover.

When Netatmo first came out it was almost completely inaccessible. I 
bought a station and contacted the company. Their head developer in 
Paris, France got a hold of me and we had several Skype conversations 
about accessibility, he made changes which I tested and the result was 
a very accessible app which gives you most readings, but not all of them.

Netatmo is also in the process of developing an Anemometer (a wind
sensor) which would pretty much complete the stations capabilities.


Regards,
Sieghard

ooo I'm a weather buff.
Would that weather station give me accessible indoor and outdoor 
readings, including accurate barometric pressure? I'd love to have 
accurate numbers for the severe storms we get here in summer, and 
possibly even contribute data to somewhere.

I last looked into weather stations before smartphones and wireless, so 
I have no idea what the state of things is currently.

Related question: Is it true there's a barometer 
in the newer iPhones? I have a 6 Plus.   If so, how do I read it?

Re: Stereo Receivers That Can Be Operated With An App?

2015-03-14 Thread Christopher Chaltain
Generally a company's app will work with a whole range of their 
products, so if there's a Denon app that's accessible and works with one 
model of their receiver, chances are it works with all of heir modern 
receivers. The entry for the app in the App Store will list what models 
it supports. Apps also tend to have a demo mode so you can download them 
and take them for a test spin to see how accessible they are before 
buying the receiver.


I purchased a home theater system a few years ago, and one of the 
criteria I used was how accessible it's iPhone app was. If I remember, 
Onkio, Denon, Pioneer, and Yamaha all had apps for their home theater 
systems, and I think Denon and Pioneer were the most accessible. That 
was a few years ago, and my memory may not be completely accurate, so 
definitely don't take my word on that and check things out for yourself 
first.


I ended up getting a Yamaha RX-V773 (I think that's the right model 
number.) and I just recently put it on the network by extending my wifi 
network with an old LinkSys router. The iPhone app isn't as accessible 
as I remember it, but there have been a few updates recently, so I need 
to check that out again. It does support AirPlay though, so it's trivial 
to go to my iPhone, get it to play something, and then hit the AirPlay 
button and the RX-V773 device and listen to whatever I want on my iPhone 
through my home theater system.


On 03/14/2015 12:12 AM, Arnold Schmidt wrote:

A couple years ago, I think on Cool Blind Tech, there was a podcast
about a Denon receiver that was quite accessible using an iPhone app.
However, even when that podcast was released, that receiver was no
longer available.  Being that a lot of modern  stereo equipment is not
the most blind friendly, are there any currently available receivers
that can be operated with an app?
   Thanks for any opinions.

Re: iphone stands

The scan jig is made of cardboard that's the one drawback I see about it that I 
know of.
I don't know what the giraffe is made out of but spending 30 bucks for a piece 
of cardboard that you fold I think that's just a little ridiculous it was made 
out of some plastic that you know I wouldn't wear out after a while and I could 
see spending 30 bucks for it but not not just cardboard and some LED lights on 
a Velcro strip is Lisette's what I have heard so that's my help to you so and I 
think the giraffe will fit the six or 6+ on it where the other one you're just 
stuck with the the 5S or smaller or the other or the four so I hope this helps 
you have not got one of these yet hoping they're going to come out with one 
that's more sturdy that won't wear out and fall apart if it gets wet with rain 
or other liquids that might get spilled on it so go and see I hope somebody 
else responds on here as to what the giraffe is made out of because I truly do 
not know what it is but.

 Hi. Back in June, 2012, I was part of a focus group that got to test a 
 suite of apps that were running on Verizon Android phones, and though I 
 thought the app suite was a nice concept and was pretty cool, I wasn't 
 wowed by it. At the CSUN conference in 2013, I became aware that this suite 
 was to be called Velasense and I had a chance to test it again; in fact, 
 I've been in regular contact with one of the developers ever since and have 
 met with him to check it out and see how it's evolved. Today, I met with 
 that same developer and one of his teammates to see the release candidate 
 for Velasense which will roll out very soon. As a confirmed 
 Apple/IOS/Voiceover fan, I have to say that what I saw of Velasense was 
 pretty darn impressive.  To be sure, there are still some things that need 
 to be tightened up and some usability tweaks that could be implemented, but 
 the developers showed me and my coworker that they're very committed to 
 developing a good, solid package and that they're really responsive to 
 end-user feedback. Would I switch to the package after  it rolls out? No, 
 not right away at least; I've got too much time and money invested to throw 
 away my iPhone 6 and all the apps that I've bought over the past five 
 years. Until today, I've been telling my students who are struggling  and 
 frustrated with Android phones and Talkback to scrap what they've got and 
 switch to Apple. Now, if they're already on Verizon, and they have a decent 
 phone, especially something like the Galaxy S5, they don't have to switch; 
 they will soon be able to go to the Google Play store or whatever it's 
 called, download and install Velasense, run the quick tutorial and get 
 right into Velasense fairly quickly. Just as there are alternatives to JAWS 
 or Window-Eyes, Velasense  could represent a viable alternative to the 
 Apple ecosystem, and healthy competition is always a good thing in my view.

  Hi,
  I can't comment on whether this was an issue with IOS 8.1.3.Using my 
BrailleNote Apex BT32 as an external input device, I can definitely reproduce 
what Richard's  talking about here.  I suspect that I'd have the same problem 
with my bluetooth keyboard, too.  with IOS 8.2, entering information in 
multiple address fields is really a pain in the butt. Like Richard, every time 
I'd move from street address line 1 to line 2, to city, state and zip, I kept 
getting bounced out to other parts of the screen and kept having to move back 
and forth until I'd stumble back into those fields by sheer happenstance or 
dumb luck and it was really time-consuming and frustrating.   

  This issue should really be reported to 

  accessibil...@apple.com

them on this message right now.  Done.

I will add my comment in this thread. Yes, definitely, in IOS 8.2 this is a 
problem for me, with and without an external keyboard. I’ve always found it a 
little challenging to get information into, say, multiple parts of an address 
field, but the problem now is pronounced and it is very difficult to complete a 
new record. These are the issues

· Moving between street, city, state and zip fields is imprecise 
and very difficult, requiring much moving back and forth.

· Data entered into fields does not display even though it is 
present. Later I can go back to a field in which I thought nothing was entered 
and I’ve entered data more thanonce.

· If I inadvertently hit tht tab key from within an edit field, the 
tab character will be entered repeatedly until I can somehow stop it, usually 
by pressing the home button to exit the screen altogether.

· All of these things, except the item immediately above, have 
occurred both while using the on screen keyboard and an external keyboard.

Wow! I just tried this and failed miserably. I tried with two different

on-screen keyboard. I would enter text and all of a sudden something strange 
would happen and not always the same thing. Sometimes additional numbers would 
be added to the phone number. Or, I would get taken to the very last field of 
the contact entry and have to go back to where I was.

 

Is anyone experiencing this. This used to be so easy, but I haven’t done it 
for a while and I don’t know in what iOS I would have started having trouble. I 
am using the least advanced typing mode where one has to double tap each key 
just to make sure I am doing it right.

 

Am I doing something wrong?

 

Thanks.

Just use Sonos, was: Stereo Receivers That Can Be Operated With An App?

2015-03-14 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
Hi Arnold,

 

My recommendation is Sonos. You said “stereo receiver” in your subject so I 
assume you are looking for a receiver (amplifier with integrated tuner) for 
music playback. If you already own a set of good quality speakers you want to 
use, then get a Sonos Connect Amp. You get a very nice sounding amplifier with 
110 Watts of Class D amplification for $600. It is small, fully connected with 
access to dozens of paid and free internet music services and the app is fully 
and fantastically accessible. On top of that you will have the freedom to 
expand your Sonos system later with any of their other players to bring music 
to other rooms, you can add a Sonos wireless Sub or, if you already have a 
traditional, powered Sub, you can connect it to your Connect Amp.

 

If you want a full 5.1 surround system, it would set you back about $1,800 with 
a Sonos Playbar, Sonos Sub and two Play 1 players for the rear channel.

 

In my opinionthe flexibility, connectivity and accessibility of Sonos beats 
anything else out there. Even if you consider an inexpensive $300 or $400 
receiver paired with an inexpensive $200 or $300 set of bookshelf speakers, you 
now have spend $500 to $700. For $600 you can buy two Sonos Play 3 players and 
set them up as a stereo pair which will sound every bit as good as what you get 
with a low-end traditional setup. The traditional setup means a bulky receiver, 
speakers which by themselves are about the size or larger than the Sonos Play 3 
and, of course, wires which have to go from the receiver to the speakers. This 
setup gives you access to an FM/AM tuner and you have not yet added any other 
source of music. For this you either need to spend more money for a CD player 
or connect your computer or iPhone to the receiver. Chances are you may find a 
receiver which has Airplay capabilities so you could play music to the receiver 
wirelessly via your iPhone or iTunes, if not you will need to connect the 
computer or iPhone with a cable. Playing music from Tune In or a subscription 
based music service similarly would require you to use your iPhone with Airplay 
or your iPhone or computer wired into the receiver. With Sonos access to Tune 
In and just about every subscription based music service you can think of is 
integrated into the fully accessible Sonos app. Your own music can easily be 
accessed by ripping all your CD’s (if you haven’t done so already) and give 
Sonos access to your music folder on the computer or, even better, on a network 
attached hard drive which means your computer doesn’t even have to be on. This 
means additional components like CD Players also become a thing of the past.

 

 

 

Good luck,

Sieghard

A couple years ago, I think on Cool Blind Tech, there was a podcast about a 
Denon receiver that was quite accessible using an iPhone app.  However, even 
when that podcast was released, that receiver was no longer available.  Being 
that a lot of modern  stereo equipment is not the most blind friendly, are 
there any currently available receivers that can be operated with an app?  

  Thanks for any opinions.

Terri,

The ScanJig is made out of hard plastic, not cardboard and costs $40, and is 
well worth it partly because it can be used with any device from tablets to 
smart phones..

The StandScan is made out of heavy cardboard that is covered in a thick resin 
and has the lights in it and costs $34.99 or the power bundle with the AC 
adapter and two different battery packs for $38.99.

The Giraffe Reader is made out of corrugated plastic and costs $60 and can only 
fit one size phone.

The FopyDo stand is made out of corrugated plastic and will cost $12 and can 
fit any sized phone and small tablets.

 As I have said before, I have access to all four of these stands and have 
communicated with all of the designers directly.

Richard

I don't know what the giraffe is made out of but spending 30 bucks for a piece

Facebook notifications question again, please help.

2015-03-14 Thread Mária Orovčíková

Hello list,
at first I am very sorry for such a long e-mail, but I want to explain 
things properly.
I asked this question several times but have not found an answer, so I 
thought I'd try again.
I am just wondering how can a blind personset notifications to get from 
Facebook pages.
Apparently, it is possible for sighted users. Here is the text from the 
website:

How do I turn on notifications for friends or people and Pages I follow?
To turn on notifications for friends or people and Pages you follow:
1. Go to the person's profile or Page
2. Click Friends or Liked
3. Click to check Get Notifications
When you choose to get notifications, you'll get a notification each 
time that person or Page posts something shared with you. You can turn 
off these notifications by unchecking Get Notifications.

https://www.facebook.com/help/299284303519326
When I click on liked as it is described above, nothing happens.
It is not a problem to set notifications forgroups or people, but I 
cannot find a way how to do it for pages.
The instructions above do not seem to work with screen readers (either 
Voiceover or NVDA).
I don't have many friends in my facebook, so it was not a problem to put 
all of them to close friends list, so I know I will not miss any of 
their posts.
It is all the same for the groups; there is an option to get 
notifications for all posts.

Unfortunately I cannot find such an option for pages.
I have been following pages provided by different stores (food stores, 
clothes stores, pet stores), TV shows, TV channels, radio stations, 
theatres, cinemas, job agencies, libraries, pages that give offers, 
coupons ETC.
As we all know Facebook do not show every single post on news feed, so 
it happens quite often that I miss a post I find important, but Facebook 
does not think I might be interested in that particular post, so it is 
not on my timeline and it happened quite often that I for example missed 
something I was interested in.

The solution might be to open each page to see all their posts.
But let's say you are following more than50 pages so opening one by one 
takes too much time and I do not want to spend all day browsing my 
Facebook. I used to do that for a while, but it takes too long to check 
everything.
You may say that Twitter is an alternative to follow, but here, in 
Slovakia, they prefer Facebook.

I would be grateful for any tips and instructions.
I was told it is possible, but I did not get any tips to get it work.
Please feel free to contact me off-list at
maria.orovcik...@gmail.com
Thank you for your help in advance.
Have a great weekend.
With kind regards
Maria

Hello list,
 at first I am very sorry for such a long e-mail, but I want to explain things 
 properly.
 I asked this question several times but have not found an answer, so I 
 thought I'd try again.
 I am just wondering how can a blind personset notifications to get from 
 Facebook pages.
 Apparently, it is possible for sighted users. Here is the text from the 
 website:
 How do I turn on notifications for friends or people and Pages I follow?
 To turn on notifications for friends or people and Pages you follow:
 1. Go to the person's profile or Page
 2. Click Friends or Liked
 3. Click to check Get Notifications
 When you choose to get notifications, you'll get a notification each time 
 that person or Page posts something shared with you. You can turn off these 
 notifications by unchecking Get Notifications.
 https://www.facebook.com/help/299284303519326
 When I click on liked as it is described above, nothing happens.
 It is not a problem to set notifications forgroups or people, but I cannot 
 find a way how to do it for pages.
 The instructions above do not seem to work with screen readers (either 
 Voiceover or NVDA).
 I don't have many friends in my facebook, so it was not a problem to put all 
 of them to close friends list, so I know I will not miss any of their posts.
 It is all the same for the groups; there is an option to get notifications 
 for all posts.
 Unfortunately I cannot find such an option for pages.
 I have been following pages provided by different stores (food stores, 
 clothes stores, pet stores), TV shows, TV channels, radio stations, theatres, 
 cinemas, job agencies, libraries, pages that give offers, coupons ETC.
 As we all know Facebook do not show every single post on news feed, so it 
 happens quite often that I miss a post I find important, but Facebook does 
 not think I might be interested in that particular post, so it is not on my 
 timeline and it happened quite often that I for example missed something I 
 was interested in.
 The solution might be to open each page to see all their posts.
 But let's say you are following more than50 pages so opening one by one takes 
 too much time and I do not want to spend all day browsing my Facebook. I used 
 to do that for a while, but it takes too long to check everything.
 You may say that Twitter is an alternative to follow, but here, in Slovakia, 
 they prefer Facebook.
 I would be grateful for any tips and instructions.
 I was told it is possible, but I did not get any tips to get it work.
 Please feel free to contact me off-list at
 maria.orovcik...@gmail.com
 Thank you for your help in advance.
 Have a great weekend.
 With kind regards
 Maria

Re: Just use Sonos, was: Stereo Receivers That Can Be Operated With An App?

2015-03-14 Thread Christopher Chaltain
I'm not pushing home theater receivers or knocking Sonos, and I listen 
carefully to everything Sieghard says, especially when it comes to 
audio, but I have one tiny point of clarification. Home theater 
receivers do come with the ability to tap into subscription music 
services and do support DLNA, so you can access your music from a 
network attached storage device. The Yamaha RX-V773 receiver I own has 
these features, and it's obviously not unique.


We built our house a few years ago, and we had it wired for a 7.2 
surround sound system in the family room, so we don't have big bulky 
speakers or wires anywhere. I've looked into Sonos recently, and I may 
still go that option in the future for some situations, but for my 
living room, I don't think it beats just dropping a network capable home 
theater receiver into my AV cabinet.

excellent, if you need it. Keith

With An App?

Hi Arnold,

My recommendation is Sonos. You said “stereo receiver” in your subject
so I assume you are looking for a receiver (amplifier with integrated
tuner) for music playback. If you already own a set of good quality
speakers you want to use, then get a Sonos Connect Amp. You get a very
nice sounding amplifier with 110 Watts of Class D amplification for
$600. It is small, fully connected with access to dozens of paid and
free internet music services and the app is fully and fantastically
accessible. On top of that you will have the freedom to expand your
Sonos system later with any of their other players to bring music to
other rooms, you can add a Sonos wireless Sub or, if you already have a
traditional, powered Sub, you can connect it to your Connect Amp.

If you want a full 5.1 surround system, it would set you back about
$1,800 with a Sonos Playbar, Sonos Sub and two Play 1 players for the
rear channel.

In my opinionthe flexibility, connectivity and accessibility of Sonos
beats anything else out there. Even if you consider an inexpensive $300
or $400 receiver paired with an inexpensive $200 or $300 set of
bookshelf speakers, you now have spend $500 to $700. For $600 you can
buy two Sonos Play 3 players and set them up as a stereo pair which will
sound every bit as good as what you get with a low-end traditional
setup. The traditional setup means a bulky receiver, speakers which by
themselves are about the size or larger than the Sonos Play 3 and, of
course, wires which have to go from the receiver to the speakers. This
setup gives you access to an FM/AM tuner and you have not yet added any
other source of music. For this you either need to spend more money for
a CD player or connect your computer or iPhone to the receiver. Chances
are you may find a receiver which has Airplay capabilities so you could
play music to the receiver wirelessly via your iPhone or iTunes, if not
you will need to connect the computer or iPhone with a cable. Playing
music from Tune In or a subscription based music service similarly would
require you to use your iPhone with Airplay or your iPhone or computer
wired into the receiver. With Sonos access to Tune In and just about
every subscription based music service you can think of is integrated
into the fully accessible Sonos app. Your own music can easily be
accessed by ripping all your CD’s (if you haven’t done so already) and
give Sonos access to your music folder on the computer or, even better,
on a network attached hard drive which means your computer doesn’t even
have to be on. This means additional components like CD Players also
become a thing of the past.

Good luck,

Sieghard

A couple years ago, I think on Cool Blind Tech, there was a podcast
about a Denon receiver that was quite accessible using an iPhone app.
However, even when that podcast was released, that receiver was no
longer available.  Being that a lot of modern  stereo equipment is not
the most blind friendly, are there any currently available receivers
that can be operated with an app?

   Thanks for any opinions.

RE: More on the NPR One App

2015-03-14 Thread Kramlinger, Keith G., M.D.
Thanks, Alan.

I downloaded the app yesterday and played with it some.

It’s very usable from the get-go (once I realized after signing up on the app 
they needed me to reply to an authorization email before my account would be 
active; I wasted a half hour repeatedly trying to sign in while being told I 
couldn’t!. This was registering as a new NPR.org user.)

No commercials or underwriting (at least so far).

I found a few unlabeled buttons if I clicked on a story title, but couldn’t 
quite figure them out. I also found a 3-finger swipe left or right could 
sometimes change a page to different content. Don’t know any more than that now.

At one point during the login process there was an option for text or graphic. 
This was during my before the email authorization phase, so I’ll make sure text 
is enabled if I find it again.

Also, I noted on the Welcome email that came up after the email authrozation, 
that there was a link to contact them with technical questions. They may be 
amenable to feedback regarding VoiceOver usability. This is a much more 
accessible and usable app than my Minnesota Public Radio News app, which my 
efforts to get them to address these issues have fallen on deaf ears.

Best, Keith

RE: Just use Sonos, was: Stereo Receivers That Can Be Operated With An App?

2015-03-14 Thread Kramlinger, Keith G., M.D.
I agree with everything Sieghard said.

I bought 4 Play3’s in December, setting them up as paired units in 2 rooms. 
With Spotify, and my iTunes Match, I haven’t had such wonderful and accessible 
music listening in decades. And their phone support is excellent, if you need 
it. Keith

Subject: Just use Sonos, was: Stereo Receivers That Can Be Operated With An App?

Hi Arnold,

My recommendation is Sonos. You said “stereo receiver” in your subject so I 
assume you are looking for a receiver (amplifier with integrated tuner) for 
music playback. If you already own a set of good quality speakers you want to 
use, then get a Sonos Connect Amp. You get a very nice sounding amplifier with 
110 Watts of Class D amplification for $600. It is small, fully connected with 
access to dozens of paid and free internet music services and the app is fully 
and fantastically accessible. On top of that you will have the freedom to 
expand your Sonos system later with any of their other players to bring music 
to other rooms, you can add a Sonos wireless Sub or, if you already have a 
traditional, powered Sub, you can connect it to your Connect Amp.

If you want a full 5.1 surround system, it would set you back about $1,800 with 
a Sonos Playbar, Sonos Sub and two Play 1 players for the rear channel.

In my opinionthe flexibility, connectivity and accessibility of Sonos beats 
anything else out there. Even if you consider an inexpensive $300 or $400 
receiver paired with an inexpensive $200 or $300 set of bookshelf speakers, you 
now have spend $500 to $700. For $600 you can buy two Sonos Play 3 players and 
set them up as a stereo pair which will sound every bit as good as what you get 
with a low-end traditional setup. The traditional setup means a bulky receiver, 
speakers which by themselves are about the size or larger than the Sonos Play 3 
and, of course, wires which have to go from the receiver to the speakers. This 
setup gives you access to an FM/AM tuner and you have not yet added any other 
source of music. For this you either need to spend more money for a CD player 
or connect your computer or iPhone to the receiver. Chances are you may find a 
receiver which has Airplay capabilities so you could play music to the receiver 
wirelessly via your iPhone or iTunes, if not you will need to connect the 
computer or iPhone with a cable. Playing music from Tune In or a subscription 
based music service similarly would require you to use your iPhone with Airplay 
or your iPhone or computer wired into the receiver. With Sonos access to Tune 
In and just about every subscription based music service you can think of is 
integrated into the fully accessible Sonos app. Your own music can easily be 
accessed by ripping all your CD’s (if you haven’t done so already) and give 
Sonos access to your music folder on the computer or, even better, on a network 
attached hard drive which means your computer doesn’t even have to be on. This 
means additional components like CD Players also become a thing of the past.



Good luck,
Sieghard

A couple years ago, I think on Cool Blind Tech, there was a podcast about a 
Denon receiver that was quite accessible using an iPhone app.  However, even 
when that podcast was released, that receiver was no longer available.  Being 
that a lot of modern  stereo equipment is not the most blind friendly, are 
there any currently available receivers that can be operated with an app?

 The ScanJig is made out of hard plastic, not cardboard and costs $40, and is 
 well worth it partly because it can be used with any device from tablets to

 The StandScan is made out of heavy cardboard that is covered in a thick resin 
 and has the lights in it and costs $34.99 or the power bundle with the AC 
 adapter and two different battery packs for $38.99.
 The Giraffe Reader is made out of corrugated plastic and costs $60 and can 
 only fit one size phone.
 The FopyDo stand is made out of corrugated plastic and will cost $12 and can 
 fit any sized phone and small tablets.
  As I have said before, I have access to all four of these stands and have

RE: Has anyone tried the Npr One app? Is it accessible and usable?

2015-03-14 Thread Alan Lemly
I have tried the NPR One app and it seems very accessible.

 

The app seems to be designed as a live feed of selections of various NPR
programs and stories. It starts with a top of the hour news report and moves
on from there. On the top menu is a search button at the far left which can
be executed to generate a search box to search for specific NPR stories. The
middle label of the top-line menu will say what is currently going such as
Now Playing. The top-line button to the right is a User Profile button. You
have to sign in with a Facebook, Google Plus, or an NPR account if memory
serves me correctly. What's shown in the user profile section will be
gleaned from whichever account you use.

 

The bottom line menu of the main NPR One screen has a rewind button to the
far left, a play/pause button in the middle, and a skip button at the right.
I'm not sure how it decides which stories are served up if you choose to
skip or not but I've not figured out whether the user can influence the
selections.

 

I've found all the buttons to be clearly labeled and the app to be very
accessible and to work very well.

Terri,

The ScanJig is made out of hard plastic, not cardboard and costs $40, and is 
well worth it partly because it can be used with any device from tablets to 
smart phones..

The StandScan is made out of heavy cardboard that is covered in a thick resin 
and has the lights in it and costs $34.99 or the power bundle with the AC 
adapter and two different battery packs for $38.99.

The Giraffe Reader is made out of corrugated plastic and costs $60 and can only 
fit one size phone.

The FopyDo stand is made out of corrugated plastic and will cost $12 and can 
fit any sized phone and small tablets.

 As I have said before, I have access to all four of these stands and have 
communicated with all of the designers directly.

The FopyDo that should be available to order in the next week or so.

That corrugated plastic is quite durable and it provides the most flexibility 
and it is an amazing price.

 

The creator is going to send me the link as soon as it becomes available.

It will have a longer name since it is a newer model, but I’m not sure of the 
final wording he settled on.  It will still start with “Fopydo.”

 

Stay tuned.

Hi Chris,

To start with your question about the barometric 
sensor in the iPhone 6 and 6 Plus, yes, they are 
there, but they are being used for elevation and 
you don't have access to them directly. I am not 
sure if Apple allows developers access to them 
since then somebody could I guess make an app 
where they display barometric pressure.


Now, as for the Netatmo weather station, it's 
basically yes to all your questions. If you buy 
the basic package for $180 you get 1 indoor and 
1 outdoor module. The indoor module gives you 
indoor temperature, minimum and maximum indoor 
temperature from 12:01 AM to Midnight, indoor 
humidity, CO2 level, noise level in decibels and 
barometric pressure is displayed.


The outdoor module measures current temperature, 
minimum and maximum temperature, it gives you 
Feels Like temperature and also shows outdoor humidity.


You can buy up to 3 more additional indoor 
modules for $79/each if you want readings for 
other rooms/areas of your house, they are like 
the outdoor modules and give you everything 
except for noise level since that uses too much 
battery power and requires the main indoor module which needs to be plugged in.


Netatmo also offers a rain gauge which is of the 
tipping bucket design and which works great.It 
gives you total rainfall starting at 12:01 AM 
until Midnight, but if you want to know you have 
to check just before midnight because while the 
previous day's amount is there for sighted 
people, it is currently not accessible with Voiceover.


When Netatmo first came out it was almost 
completely inaccessible. I bought a station and 
contacted the company. Their head developer in 
Paris, France got a hold of me and we had 
several Skype conversations about accessibility, 
he made changes which I tested and the result 
was a very accessible app which gives you most readings, but not all of them.


Netatmo is also in the process of developing an 
Anemometer (a wind sensor) which would pretty 
much complete the stations capabilities.



Regards,
Sieghard

ooo I'm a weather buff.
Would that weather station give me accessible 
indoor and outdoor readings, including accurate 
barometric pressure? I'd love to have accurate 
numbers for the severe storms we get here in 
summer, and possibly even contribute data to somewhere.


I last looked into weather stations before 
smartphones and wireless, so I have no idea what 
the state of things is currently.


Related question: Is it true there's a barometer 
in the newer iPhones? I have a 6 Plus.  If so, how do I read it?

Hi Keith,

The Netatmo weather station measures indoor noise level on the main
module. Not sure if that helps.

Hi,

Is there an accessible decibel meter for iPhone?

I need to get some repeated measures of ambient noise for an indoor problem.

Are there any accessible decibel meters?

Thanks, Keith
