All did not go well

[Agent086b]

Hi all,
Well I thought my setup of new phone went OK but I don’t have any of my 
messages and none of my email settings or messages. Should I do a restore from 
an iTunes backup on my Mac?
Thanks for any help.
Max.

iPhoneXS Wonderful

[Agent086b]

Hi all,
very happy with the new phone. I had difficulties transferring settings from my 
6. Once I got my sited wife to help we got it. It took me quite sometime to get 
the swipe gestures down pat. I was holding my finger to long before swiping up 
or down.
Thanks to everybody who has passed on tips over the pas year.
Max.

Re: amazon app broken"

[regina alvarado]

Ok, I will qualify my displeasure. I searched for apple watch, and there was a 
whole string of numbers and letters that stopped swiping through the list. 
However, when I looked for dish soap I could swipe through the options fine. 
Don't know why it didn't work on the apple device but on other things it does. 
Interestingly the website searching for Apple watch works perfectly.

So, this is not exclusive to IOS 12, at least not on my iPhone 8.



As Mike indicates, pressing the power button seems to be consistent

So far, IOS 12 seems to be working fine for me, I have only noticed

spoken

Problems with iPhone 7

[Tom Lange]

Hi, 
I’m currently having a couple of problems with my iPhone 7, and I’m not sure if 
an issue with IOS 12 or if something else has caused them.
First, I have some artists in my Apple Music Library that I no longer want and 
I can’t figure out how to delete them. I’m not seeing any kind of Actions list 
anymore. So I thought I’d try 3d touch, but I can’t seem to get 3d touch to 
work  anywhere on the device either. What’s going on here? Any thoughts?

AirPower referenced in iPhone XS packaging, iOS 12.1 code shows continuing development - 9To5Mac

[Maria Reyes]

AirPower referenced in iPhone XS packaging, iOS 12.1 code shows continuing 
development
Guilherme Rambo - Sep. 20th 2018 4:53 pm PT

3 Comments 






Noticeably missing from last week’s Apple event was AirPower, which was 
originally announced during the September 2017 event. AirPower is a charging 
mat capable of charging up to three devices simultaneously, but recent reports 
have suggested Apple has hit a series of engineering issues with the accessory.

Now, the iPhone XS packaging, as well as iOS 12.1, suggest that AirPower isn’t 
dead just yet.


 

AirPower isn’t a simple combination of three different Qi chargers, but rather 
an extension of the Qi standard that allows you to place the devices on any 
area of the mat. It also features very close integration with iOS, so when 
you’re charging an iPhone alongside other devices, your iPhone becomes a 
display for the AirPower, showing the status for each device through a slick 
interface.

The complexity of AirPower has apparently caused a slew of issues for 
engineers, which is why it’s still not for sale more than a year after its 
announcement. Originally, Apple said AirPower would be available “in 2018,” so 
while the company technically hasn’t missed its deadline, it’s clearly running 
down to the wire.

However, new evidence from the iPhone XS and iOS 12.1 suggests that, while it 
may be delayed, development of AirPower continues.

Looking into iOS 12.1, we noticed that the component of iOS responsible for 
managing the charging interface that appears when using AirPower has been 
updated, which means that Apple is still actively working on the project.

Furthermore, a picture of the “getting started guide” that comes packaged with 
the iPhone XS clearly mentions AirPower. “Place iPhone with screen facing up on 
AirPower or a Qi-certified wireless charger,” it reads. The image was shared on 
Twitter by Gavin Stephens.

If Apple was planning on cancelling the project altogether, then it would 
definitely not be mentioning it in the packaging of the brand new devices.

Are you still excited for AirPower? Let us know in the comments below!

Getting rid of the confirmation message when deleting a conversation in the messages app

[Mary Otten]

It seems to me that are used to have my Messages app set such that if I hit 
delete on a message or a message conversation, it would go away without asking 
me if I wanted to delete it. Maybe I’m just miss remembering. That changed at 
some point, not with iOS 12 however. I would like to stop this behavior. I want 
to have the conversation go away without the confirmation being necessary. I 
looked in settings for Messages, and I don’t see that choice in there. Is it 
somewhere else? Or is it just not possible?

Re: How to use onboard dictionaries

[Michael Feir]

The right place is in setttings, general, dictionary. It is right near the
language and region button. Double-tap on dictionary and select the
ictionary and thesaurus you want to use from the options. Once that's done,
they should download and be ready for use.

While you're writing something, you can type the word, turn the rotor to
"edit", swipe down until you get to "select" and double-tap that. Swipe
down again until you reach the "look up" option in the edit menu.
Double-tap that and you'll be presended with a screen containing any
information about the word from various available sources including the
dictionary and thesaurus. Personally, I don't find anything from the
thesaurus but the dictionary works great.

For me, third party apps have proven far more useful. A good starting one
is Wordweb. It can work along with the Chambers dictionary and thesaurus
apps if you need heavier artillary. Hope that helps.

Re: How to use onboard dictionaries

[Maria Reyes]

Hi, go to settings > general and keep flicking until you hear dictionary. 
double tap on that and you will see a whole bunch of dictionaries you can add.

OK. I went into settings, general, keyboard, and the only thing I found was 
dictation languages. Is that what it is? I thought it was something where you 
could look stuff up. I already have two of them. And it didn’t show me a 
listing for anymore. So if I know something in English and want to know how to 
say it say in Arabic, I can type English. I cannot type Arabic, and I don’t 
want an Arabic keyboard, even if there is one. I guess that means I can’t do 
that kind of look up. I thought I remembered hearing that there was an Arabic 
dictionary now available. But perhaps I just totally missed the boat.

Re: How to use onboard dictionaries

[Mary Otten]

Somebody mentioned that you could find dictionary in settings. I went in there, 
and I didn’t see any. I looked in Siri, then I looked in the basic settings app 
down the list of all the apps that I have, a lot of them, and I didn’t see 
anything. Where can I find these dictionaries and decide which ones I want? 
It’s probably obvious, but I’m just not seeing it.

Re: How to use onboard dictionaries

[Anna Dresner]

Hi Ketan,

1. Type the word you want to look up.

2. Turn the rotor to Edit.

3. Choose Select.

4. If "Look up isn't in the menu that pops up, select "Show more items."

5. Choose "Look up."

A screen will open with your word looked up in whichever dictionaries you 
selected, as well as any other relevant sources.

Best,
Anna

Re: IOS 12 observations

[Mike Arrigo]

It's worked for me a few times but I think the power button will have 
to become my new talking clock button, not quite as convenient to reach 
if I'm laying in bed or something, but it is what it is.

Original message:

Hi Mike,


Well, I have the iPhone 8 Plus. On occasion, I can get the time 
announced but I have to use a really light touch on the home button for 
it to work. It’s certainly not consistent and certainly no longer reliable.

that's exactly what I am seeing with IOS 12, never happened with IOS 11 though.
Original message:

I have not yet upgraded to IOS 12, and sometimes when I hit the home
button, it starts to announce the time and then gets cut off, sometimes
does not announce it at all, and sometimes does announce the time.



So, this is not exclusive to IOS 12, at least not on my iPhone 8.



As Mike indicates, pressing the power button seems to be consistent
with announcing the time.

This happens with my iphone SE, I need to upgrade my iphone 8 and see
if it happens with that phone as well. If you listen closely, it sounds
like the speech starts to say the time but then is cut off, usually
when the screen turns on, voiceover speaks the first item on the screen
which is the time, I just wonder what is different when pressing the
power button instead of the home button to wake the phone up.

So far, IOS 12 seems to be working fine for me, I have only noticed one
thing that is annoying. When pressing the home button, the time is no
longer automatically spoken, I use this as a talking clock. It is spoken
when using the power button to wake the phone though, I guess I will just
use that for now. Other than that, have not noticed any issues.

Re: Setting up the “say cheese” Siri shortcut

You will first have to grant permission to Siri shortcuts to access the camera 
and the photos apps. After that you will see this say cheese shortcut option in 
Siri shortcuts.

Re: bug in Books"

Mark, thank you for the answer. I have called accessibility, and the gentleman 
has escalated the problem to the engineers. He told me basically the same 
thing, but he tried to tell me I had to have speak screen on, and I didn't have 
to to have it read continuously. The image problem makes sense. I just hate 
that speak screen, and when he checked it, it is not hooked to zoice over. He 
left me at so sorry can't help, but he said he would send to the engineers. 
Everyone please write to accessibility about this. Thanks.

The problem has to do with how images are imbedded into the book, itself.  

For example, in the recently released iOS 12 book, if you can place focus just 
after a certain image or another, continuous reading will go on for a very, 
very, very long time until another such image is encountered.  Of course, this 
workaround only exists if you can see the images.  

Regardless, I will, along with you and others, I hope, report this bug to Apple.

Subject: bug in Books"

A question. Has anyone had a problem with continuous reading in Books (iBooks?) 
I have cycled off and on my phone, hard re-booted my phone and looked under 
settings and books to see if there is a setting. What have I not done? Is there 
a setting in accessibility? I would rather not have the speak screen on if 
possible, but if I need it where do I go to find it? Also, I can get it to 
continuously read 2 pages and then at the bottom of the second page it stops 
and I have to use the picker to turn the page. Any thoughts? Thanks in advance. 
Running iPhone X with IOS 12. Oh, just thought about deleting and reinstalling. 
How do I get a clean copy or will I just delete everything and then get back 
what I have? Thanks again for any help on this.

Restoring from iTunes

[Gordon]

So I'm going with the iPhone 8 which I will be getting here in an hour 
or so. I have my backup in iTunes ready to go, but I wont have sighted 
assistance until later tonight. Has anyone restored from iTunes since 
upgrading to IOS 12? Someone had posted out here a couple of days ago 
that they had an issue when the phone came back up and VO didn't speak 
for them to enter the password so that iTunes could finish the process. 
So I'm just wondering if there's anything I can do to keep this from 
happening?

Re: iMessages while using a braille display.

[Sadam Ahmed]

I believe you may have the bi-14 Brailliant display  from Humanware.

If this is the case, Kitty is quite correct, you can try downloading the 
Brailliant Sync from the App Store.


Although, from reading your question, I'd agree with Richard, it would 
be worth contacting Apple and letting them know as it sounds like 
something they would need to look at in terms of an  iOS feature request 
instead of the display's vendor.

Hi all,


I'm a reasonably new-comer to this technokogy, and I'm curious as to 
whether or not anyone else finds the "Contact is typing" or that 
they've stopped typing messages which disrupt the entire writing 
process messages to be as annoying as I do. Or, is there a way to 
make one's display less...verbose? How do the rest of you who are 
display users find the state of braille on iOS generally? Like I 
said, I'm a new display user, so am perfectly willing to admit the 
issue is something I'm not doing correctly, so I'm reaching out in 
hopes that isn't some half-baked bug...


thanks in advance everyone, for any light you're able to shed on this.

RE: Update was Re: iOS Update Advice needed

[Carolyn Arnold]

Thanks for that information; I learned something new today. I was thinking 
about two friends who recently got sevens, both 32, and I thought, oh no, they 
won't benefit either. I see what you mean, kind of like my Victor Reader 
Stream, what it has itself and what is on the SD card. 

Best regards,

Carolyn

Carolyn the SE is a 64 bit system. The 32 you are referring to is the amount of 
storage which is 32 GB. And yes, you should upgrade to IOS 12.

32 bit apps will never be supported again. So, either the developer needs to 
update their apps, or you have to find a replacement or stay on 10.3.3.

Re: iOS 12 & ooTunes Jousting

[Jim Fettgather]

Hi there, I have been using OOTunes for many years, it's my favorite radio app.
So, I went to my favorites list, started a station, and to pick
another one, I pressed the Back button, and chose another stream,
started it, and was again able to press the Back button to the list of
favorites.
I am not certain whether this is the exact scenario that you are
describing, but this is how I have always operated OOTunes, including
now in IOS 12.
Thanks.

Re: iMessages while using a braille display.

[kitty hevener]

okay, I am not familiar with that one.  I use the hims product line.  I did 
read where there apparently is a ap that is free designed for the 
brailliant.  Maybe someone else has more info.

Hi all,


I'm a reasonably new-comer to this technokogy, and I'm curious as to 
whether or not anyone else finds the "Contact is typing" or that they've 
stopped typing messages which disrupt the entire writing process messages 
to be as annoying as I do. Or, is there a way to make one's display 
less...verbose? How do the rest of you who are display users find the 
state of braille on iOS generally? Like I said, I'm a new display user, so 
am perfectly willing to admit the issue is something I'm not doing 
correctly, so I'm reaching out in hopes that isn't some half-baked bug...


thanks in advance everyone, for any light you're able to shed on this.

iOS 12 & ooTunes Jousting

['Bill Gallik' via VIPhone]

 I am a faithful user of the ooTunes app and have noted an issue with this app 
in iOS 12.0.  I wonder if any other ooTunes (or other internet streaming apps) 
user is likewise experiencing this issue.  I have about a dozen or so streams 
in the “Favorites” for ooTunes and I have no problem selecting the initial 
one/.  But when I try to select another stream instead VoiceOver goes silent, 
ooTunes seems to be taken out of focus and other undesirable conditions appear.

This doesn’t matter how I try to select an alternative stream.  If I leave 
ooTunes focussed on the “Favorites” tab and try to select one of the other 
streams occurs.  If I have “Now Playing” in focus and attempt to activate 
either the “Previous” or “Next” stream this occurs.

I have an iPhone 6 with 128 Gb memory.

Does anyone have any thoughts on this situation?

If you are using an iPhone SE, I highly recommend that you upgrade to iOS 12.0.

32 bit apps will never be supported again. So, either the developer needs to

Yes! I know it was redundant! I just figured out the Camera app and Apple Watch

It’s funny, this technology, sometimes it makes you go around in circles!
Have a great day!

Awesome! But it does take a couple of seconds before it takes the picture. 
Remind me of an app I had earlier called 1Camera. Asking Siri to launch 1Camera 
would take a picture! It was much faster.
Thank you very much for your detailed instructions. really appreciate it.
I tried to initiate this action by speaking “Say cheese” into my Apple Watch. 
But Siri on the Apple Watch said cannot recognize this command! Is there anyway 
I can do it?
Thank you very much!

It seems to work and do what it says it is supposed to do, here is what I did:

1. Open the Shortcuts app
2. Tap on Gallery
3. Tap on Say Cheese, take a photo by asking SIRI
4. Now tap on "Get Shortcut"
5. Tap on the "Library" tab at the bottom left and you will now find the Say 
Cheese shortcut listed.
6. Double tap on it, you will propted to allow Shortcuts to access your camera 
and photos, make sure you allow it, the shortcut will run and a picture is 
taken.
7. In order to add the SIRI integration, go to Settings > SIRI and Search and 
look for the "Run Say Cheese" shortcut which should now show up under the 
heading "Suggested Shortcuts", double tap on it.
8. Record whichever phrase you want to use, it could be "Say Cheese" or "Take 
Picture" or, if in the shortcuts menu you change the actions to use the front 
camera instead of the back camera you could make a shortcut and call it "Take 
Selfi".
9. After you finish recording your phrase make sure you tap the "Done" button 
at the top right of that screen.
10. Try out your shortcut by bringing  up SIRI and speak your phrase, e.g. 
"Take Picture", SIRI should say "running your shortcut", make sure you hold the 
phone still until you hear the sound of the camera. It will probably take 2 
seconds or so.

Siri shortcuts seem awesome! But setting up Siri shortcut seems awfully

Mr. Richard Turner did  mention say cheese shortcut for the camera app taking a

It seems impossible to set up!
Can someone please give step-by-step instructions on how to set up an activate 
this shortcut?

RE: Setting up the “say cheese” Siri shortcut

[Sieghard Weitzel]

I am not sure what the purpose is why you would speak Say Cheese into the Apple 
Watch, it does not have a camera and if you want to use it as a remote control 
for the iPhone camera then you can do this already manually.

Sieghard

Awesome! But it does take a couple of seconds before it takes the picture. 
Remind me of an app I had earlier called 1Camera. Asking Siri to launch 1Camera 
would take a picture! It was much faster.
Thank you very much for your detailed instructions. really appreciate it.
I tried to initiate this action by speaking “Say cheese” into my Apple Watch. 
But Siri on the Apple Watch said cannot recognize this command! Is there anyway 
I can do it?
Thank you very much!

It seems to work and do what it says it is supposed to do, here is what I did:

1. Open the Shortcuts app
2. Tap on Gallery
3. Tap on Say Cheese, take a photo by asking SIRI
4. Now tap on "Get Shortcut"
5. Tap on the "Library" tab at the bottom left and you will now find the Say 
Cheese shortcut listed.
6. Double tap on it, you will propted to allow Shortcuts to access your camera 
and photos, make sure you allow it, the shortcut will run and a picture is 
taken.
7. In order to add the SIRI integration, go to Settings > SIRI and Search and 
look for the "Run Say Cheese" shortcut which should now show up under the 
heading "Suggested Shortcuts", double tap on it.
8. Record whichever phrase you want to use, it could be "Say Cheese" or "Take 
Picture" or, if in the shortcuts menu you change the actions to use the front 
camera instead of the back camera you could make a shortcut and call it "Take 
Selfi".
9. After you finish recording your phrase make sure you tap the "Done" button 
at the top right of that screen.
10. Try out your shortcut by bringing  up SIRI and speak your phrase, e.g. 
"Take Picture", SIRI should say "running your shortcut", make sure you hold the 
phone still until you hear the sound of the camera. It will probably take 2 
seconds or so.

Siri shortcuts seem awesome! But setting up Siri shortcut seems awfully

Mr. Richard Turner did  mention say cheese shortcut for the camera app taking a

It seems impossible to set up!
Can someone please give step-by-step instructions on how to set up an activate 
this shortcut? 
Thank you very much!

RE: is there a way of getting rid of vo saying groups when it comes to notifications?

[Sieghard Weitzel]

It says group if there is more than 1 notification and that is how 
notifications are now done in iOS 12. Many of us have been waiting for iOS to 
finally group notifications from the same app/source on the lockscreen and in 
notification centre instead of showing them all individually. When they 
mentioned this feature during the June keynote there was big applause from all 
the developers.

What I don't like about the shortcuts, unless, I am doing something incorrect, 
is that when the shortcut is complete it puts you in the shortcut app. So, if I 
use the say cheese shortcut from the home screen, when the pitcher is taken I 
am left in the shortcut app.

Re: IOS 12 observations

[Mike Arrigo]

I did upgrade my iphone 8 to IOS 12, same thing regarding the time not 
being announced when waking the phone with the home button.

Original message:

that's exactly what I am seeing with IOS 12, never happened with IOS 11 though.
Original message:

I have not yet upgraded to IOS 12, and sometimes when I hit the home
button, it starts to announce the time and then gets cut off, sometimes
does not announce it at all, and sometimes does announce the time.



So, this is not exclusive to IOS 12, at least not on my iPhone 8.



As Mike indicates, pressing the power button seems to be consistent
with announcing the time.

This happens with my iphone SE, I need to upgrade my iphone 8 and see
if it happens with that phone as well. If you listen closely, it sounds
like the speech starts to say the time but then is cut off, usually
when the screen turns on, voiceover speaks the first item on the screen
which is the time, I just wonder what is different when pressing the

So far, IOS 12 seems to be working fine for me, I have only noticed one
thing that is annoying. When pressing the home button, the time is no
longer automatically spoken, I use this as a talking clock. It is spoken
when using the power button to wake the phone though, I guess I will just
use that for now. Other than that, have not noticed any issues.

Re: Update was Re: iOS Update Advice needed

[Marie N.]

Lisa, I would say that the issue with Bard is definitely not standard 
behavior with an upgrade and I did not have this with either my ITouch or 
IPhone. I am constantly surprised when people have such diverse experiences 
when upgrading the same model of phones. But this might have been because 
you were skipping IOS 11 whereas I was not.

Subject: Re: Update was Re: iOS Update Advice needed

Well, I haven't had that much trouble, to be honest.  Most of my
settings were intact with one huge exception that I'll talk about below.


The only issue I had was with the BARD app.  I couldn't navigate from
tab to tab at all.  I closed the app, restarted the phone, and had the
same problem.  My next step would have been uninstalling and then
downloading it again.  But I checked the main settings screen and found
the BARD Mobile app and found an option to initialize settings within
that subsection.


This meant that when I reopened the app, I had to agree to the BARD
terms of service and reenter my user name and password.  Once this was
done, my bookshelf, wish list and previous downloads were restored,
though I did have to readjust settings for using cellular data from
within the BARD Mobile app.  Oh, and the option to hear progress beeps
was on when I had it set to off before the update.


For all I know this could be standard behavior, but I don't remember
having to do it when I was using BARD with my iPhone 5, but who knows. I
tend to block out stressful technical things to keep my sanity. 


The battery seems to be draining faster than usual.  I'm assuming this
is part of the update as indicated in the article someone mentioned on
this list the other day.


Also, I have downloaded the SIRI female voice to use with VO.  It works
great, but I can't adjust anything as far as volume, speaking rate or
pitch is concerned.  I've got speaking rate and volume on my rotor, and
they do absolutely nothing for the female SIRI voice.  I have UK and
Australian voices in my rotor, as well as the male SIRI U.S. voice and
they all can be adjusted.


None of these are showstoppers for me.  I'm sure I'll run across minor
things.  So far every app I've opened that is part of the native iOS
package gives me welcome screens and little summaries about new
features.  But all works as it should once I've gotten past those screens.

Just off the top of my head, the apps I no longer have access to are 
Eyenote, Color ID, Agogo, Sixth Sense and Where's ducky. When I tried

That message is spoken, and for deaf/blind folks using a braille display they 
get what hearing/blind get.  Yes, it is annoying whether using a braille

This might be a good thing to request from Apple, to make that an optional

I'm a reasonably new-comer to this technokogy, and I'm curious as to whether 
or not anyone else finds the "Contact is typing" or that they've stopped 
typing messages which disrupt the entire writing process messages to be as 
annoying as I do. Or, is there a way to make one's display less...verbose? 
How do the rest of you who are display users find the state of braille on 
iOS generally? Like I said, I'm a new display user, so am perfectly willing 
to admit the issue is something I'm not doing correctly, so I'm reaching out 
in hopes that isn't some half-baked bug...


thanks in advance everyone, for any light you're able to shed on this.

Then it should work. You have to start sliding from the very top or very 
bottom edge of the screen. You should then hear a sound to let you know you 
are in the right area to slide up or down.

First, you slide, not swipe. Now that is out the way, if you slide up 
from the bottom edge of the screen until you hear the second sound, 
slightly higher in pitch than the first one, this should bring up your 
home screen. Slide up further, again from the bottom of the screen, until 
you hear an even higher pitched sound, this should activate your app 
switcher. Let me know how you get on then I will post the other gestures 
if necessary.

RE: Update was Re: iOS Update Advice needed

[Richard Turner]

I agree that everyone who is blind should have Seeing AI on their phone, but if 
you want a stand alone money identifier for US currency that will tell you 
whether it is the front or back of the bill, EyeNote works great and is the 
only one that does front/back.

I mention the front/back thing because I had a client who really, really wanted 
to keep his money all facing the same direction in his wallet.

If you need to identify money from something over  20 countries including the 
US, then Money Reader is the one you want.

But, Seeing AI is the most useful app for multiple functions in the app store, 
and its money identifier works as well as any other, you simply have to flick 
to that channel.  I personally tend to use one of the dedicated money 
identifiers when all I want to do is check my folding money, but if I already 
am using Seeing AI, I will simply use it rather than switching to another ap.

It is great to have choices.

Re: Setting up the “say cheese” Siri shortcut

[karuna Chopra]

Awesome! But it does take a couple of seconds before it takes the picture. 
Remind me of an app I had earlier called 1Camera. Asking Siri to launch 1Camera 
would take a picture! It was much faster.
Thank you very much for your detailed instructions. really appreciate it.
I tried to initiate this action by speaking “Say cheese” into my Apple Watch. 
But Siri on the Apple Watch said cannot recognize this command! Is there anyway 
I can do it?
Thank you very much!

It seems to work and do what it says it is supposed to do, here is what I did:

1. Open the Shortcuts app

3. Tap on Say Cheese, take a photo by asking SIRI
4. Now tap on "Get Shortcut"
5. Tap on the "Library" tab at the bottom left and you will now find the Say 
Cheese shortcut listed.
6. Double tap on it, you will propted to allow Shortcuts to access your camera 
and photos, make sure you allow it, the shortcut will run and a picture is 
taken.
7. In order to add the SIRI integration, go to Settings > SIRI and Search and 
look for the "Run Say Cheese" shortcut which should now show up under the 
heading "Suggested Shortcuts", double tap on it.
8. Record whichever phrase you want to use, it could be "Say Cheese" or "Take 
Picture" or, if in the shortcuts menu you change the actions to use the front 
camera instead of the back camera you could make a shortcut and call it "Take 
Selfi".
9. After you finish recording your phrase make sure you tap the "Done" button 
at the top right of that screen.
10. Try out your shortcut by bringing  up SIRI and speak your phrase, e.g. 
"Take Picture", SIRI should say "running your shortcut", make sure you hold the 
phone still until you hear the sound of the camera. It will probably take 2 
seconds or so.

is there a way of getting rid of vo saying groups when it comes to notifications?

[mich verrier]

Hi all. I have found that since upgrading to ios 12 when ever I get
notifications that vo says group. Is there a way to stop vo from saying
group? Or is this just now how the notifications are in ios 12? From Mich.

Re: IOS12 & locked Screen

[Kimber Gardner]

You have to turn it off individually for each notification. It is
under the heading of options. It's called grouping or something like
that and is set to default to automatic. It's a bit of a pain to have
to turn each one off individually but it's better than nothing.

Re: IOS12 & locked Screen

[Vicki W.]

I'm not sure either. I will say that I do not use a passcode or touch ID if 
that makes a difference. So, if it keeps this up, I want to turn off group 
messaging and I'm not finding out where or how to do this.

Would you recommend I try a passcode to see if that makes a difference or can 
you tell me how to turn off group messaging? I found nowhere in the messaging 
or notification setting to do it.

Thanks.

Vicki

  Hi Vicky,

   

  Not sure why you experience this. If I have a number of messages say from my 
Ring video doorbell, a few more from my Schlage smart doorlock, a couple from 
the CBC News app and some more from Facebook I can swipe through all of these 
groups and double tap on any one to expand it and see all the notifications 
init.

  I don't mind them being grouped, but when a grouped notification appears on 
my locked screen, the previous one disappears so I am only seeing one message 
at a time. This means if several grouped messages come in, all the previous one 
disappears and only the most recent ones go away and I am never sure if there 
are more without going into notifications and looking there.

   

  If I unlock my screen, even the last one disappears.

RE: Setting up the "say cheese" Siri shortcut

[Blind Treasures {Your One Stop Shop}]

What I don't like about the shortcuts, unless, I am doing something
incorrect, is that when the shortcut is complete it puts you in the shortcut
app. So, if I use the say cheese shortcut from the home screen, when the
pitcher is taken I am left in the shortcut app.

RE: Setting up the “say cheese” Siri shortcut

[Sieghard Weitzel]

It seems to work and do what it says it is supposed to do, here is what I did:

1. Open the Shortcuts app
2. Tap on Gallery
3. Tap on Say Cheese, take a photo by asking SIRI
4. Now tap on "Get Shortcut"
5. Tap on the "Library" tab at the bottom left and you will now find the Say 
Cheese shortcut listed.
6. Double tap on it, you will propted to allow Shortcuts to access your camera 
and photos, make sure you allow it, the shortcut will run and a picture is 
taken.
7. In order to add the SIRI integration, go to Settings > SIRI and Search and 
look for the "Run Say Cheese" shortcut which should now show up under the 
heading "Suggested Shortcuts", double tap on it.
8. Record whichever phrase you want to use, it could be "Say Cheese" or "Take 
Picture" or, if in the shortcuts menu you change the actions to use the front 
camera instead of the back camera you could make a shortcut and call it "Take 
Selfi".
9. After you finish recording your phrase make sure you tap the "Done" button 
at the top right of that screen.
10. Try out your shortcut by bringing  up SIRI and speak your phrase, e.g. 
"Take Picture", SIRI should say "running your shortcut", make sure you hold the 
phone still until you hear the sound of the camera. It will probably take 2 
seconds or so.

It seems impossible to set up!
Can someone please give step-by-step instructions on how to set up an activate 
this shortcut? 
Thank you very much!

Re: IOS12 & locked Screen

[Vicki W.]

I don't mind them being grouped, but when a grouped notification appears on my 
locked screen, the previous one disappears so I am only seeing one message at a 
time. This means if several grouped messages come in, all the previous one 
disappears and only the most recent ones go away and I am never sure if there 
are more without going into notifications and looking there.

If I unlock my screen, even the last one disappears.

  Hi Vicky. What's happening is that your notifications are being grouped. To 
see all notifications that are grouped, double tap on one and you'll see them 
all. HTH.

Before, if I received an alert or more than one message, they didn't 
disappear off the locked screen until I made them go away. Now only one at a 
time shows up and I am missing messages when I don't hear them come in and 
another comes in after it, as well as any alerts.

They will show up in the notification center, but I don't want to keep 
having to check there to see if I have missed something.

Thanks.

RE: Gmail and push?

[Sieghard Weitzel]

Push is supported as of iOS 11, here are instructions from a Lifewire.com 
article, note the last line of comment after point 10:

Set Up Free Gmail Push in iPhone Mail App

1. Tap Settings on your iPhone Home screen.
2. Select Accounts & Passwords
3. Tap Add Account on the Accounts & Passwords screen.
4. Select  Google from the options presented to you.
5. Enter your Gmail address (or phone number) in the field provided. Tap Next.
6. Enter your Gmail password in the field provided. Tap Next.
7. Indicate which Gmail folders you want to have pushed to iPhone Mail.
8. Return to the Accounts & Passwords screen and tap Push next to Fetch New 
Data.
9. Confirm that the Exchange account says Push or Fetch next to it.
10. At the bottom of the same screen, click Automatically in the Fetch section 
to receive the email sent to your email account as quickly as possible.
Note: iOS versions earlier than iOS 11 did not have the Automatically option. 
You had to select from the other options, the shortest of which was Every 15 
Minutes.

Sieghard

Push does not work with gmail accounts when using the iOS stock mail client.
That was for sure the case on iOS 11.4.1 but I've not tried on iOS 12
since I prefer the gmail app over the stock iOS mail app anyway.
Push works as expected when using the gmail app.

Re: What Is The Measure App On iOS 12? Here's What You Can Use It For

[Kenny]

LOL! I wondered what this mysterious Measure app was that appeared on my 
phone after upgrading to v12. I moved it to the extras folder. guess I 
should play around with it a bit.



On 9/18/2018 2:41 PM, M. Taylor wrote:

What Is The Measure App On iOS 12? Here's What You Can Use It For
By Lucia Petersan.

With the release of iOS 12 on Monday, users of Apple mobile devices of all
kinds gained access to a ton of new apps and tools - including a surprise
hit: The "Measure" app. What is the iOS 12 Measure app, you ask? It's both
exactly what it sounds like, and a whole lot more. Through the magic of
ARKit 2 - the latest version of Apple's augmented reality development kit -
you can use your iPhone or iPad to take the measurements of just about
anything in your environment. Although the idea of an AR tape measurer isn't
nearly as exciting-sounding as, say, being able to catch a Pokemon in your
living room, it's one of the more practical applications of AR technology -
and as some folks have demonstrated on Twitter, you can still have some fun
with it, too.
Apple's own Measure app isn't the first of its kind; other developers have
previously harnessed the power of ARKit's earlier version, which was
released in 2017 alongside iOS 11, to create similar apps (with varying
degrees of success). The functionality of Measure isn't new, either -
although it works through different technology, the end result isn't
dramatically different from what you can achieve with a laser distance
measure.
  
What Measure does that these other options don't, however, is make this kind

of tool accessible to anyone with a compatible iOS device. Want to calculate
the length or area of something that's tough to get a tape measure against?
You don't have to buy a separate device to accomplish that calculation; you
don't even have to buy a separate app to do it. Everything you need is built
right into something you already own - your phone or tablet. All you have to
do to get access to it is update your device to iOS 12.
According to Mashable, the first time you boot up Measure, it will ask you
to "point your phone all around the environment you're in" for calibration
purposes. After you've completed that task, you'll be able to start
measuring items in your surroundings. To do so, you just point your phone at
whatever you want to measure so the camera can see it, then tap the points
you want the app to measure between on your device's screen. The app is also
capable of recognizing some things on its; per Mashable, you can measure
these objects "by holding your iPhone up to, say, a monitor, TV, or box,"
which will cause the app to "overlay the object in yellow and allow you to
lock that point in." Writes Jake Krol, "From there, you can get the
measurements of that recognized object without doing the manual work of
designating a boundary."
  
The app isn't without its flaws, of course; it's mostly accurate, but not

perfectly accurate. When Krol measured his MacBook Air, for example - a
laptop which measures at 13.3 inches diagonally - the app calculated it at
13 inches even, which is, as Krol put it, "not bad, though not quite dead
on." CNBC echoed this assessment, calling it "[not] a perfect replacement
for a regular measuring tape, but . good if you need a quick estimate when
you're in a bind and don't have a real tape measure."
Plenty of folks have found some, uh. creative uses for Measure, too, of
course. Take, for example, all the people who have discovered you can
measure your pets with it:
Well played, internet. Well played, indeed.
To get Measure, first make sure your device is compatible with iOS 12 by
checking here; if it is, go ahead and update to iOS 12 and you should be
good to go. Have fun, kids!

Re: IOS 12 observations

[Kenny]

Hmmm... I always have my iPhone 8 placed face down on the table. When I 
turn it face up, it automatically speaks the current time. Then I turn 
it facedown again. Might be something you would want to try?

So far, IOS 12 seems to be working fine for me, I have only noticed 
one thing that is annoying. When pressing the home button, the time is 
no longer automatically spoken, I use this as a talking clock. It is 
spoken when using the power button to wake the phone though, I guess I 
will just use that for now. Other than that, have not noticed any issues.
