And it uses U V light,
Oh sunlight!

What an amazing invention,
Someone created a sunlight cleaner.

What do all of us touch thousands of times every day? Our smartphones or 
tablets or other mobile devices. In response to this fact, devices employing 
ultraviolet rays to disinfect phones and other small object grew quickly in 
popularity with the pandemic.

Two unique models available from Mystic Access offer voice prompts to tell you 
when the disinfecting process has begun and when it is complete. One model 
offers aromatherapy as well, and both can accommodate other small items – think 
cash, keys, credit cards, or other tiny items you touch all the time. Choose

wireless charging capabilities. $65 from Mystic Access,

RE: iPhone sanitizer

[Simon A Fogarty]

I’m sorry but  what are you folks going on about here?

What is a phone sanatizer?

I’d just call that a wipe, or wet wipe.

May be even a complex putting my phone in my pocket,

Why pay for something that seems to be over kill.

RE: Apple TV and apps

[Jim Fettgather]

Hello, I do not believe that you can use Twitter or email through your Apple 
TV, but one thing that you can do, which I have done quite often is to  use 
Screen Mirroring in Control Center to Stream Facebook Live, Youtube, and any 
other apps that produce audio or video.
If you have the correct hardware, you can literally connect your phone via the 
lightning port to HDMI output to your entertainment system, this hardware is 
sometimes called an iPhone camera kit.
I have streamed to the apple tv both ways, and some apps even support airplay, 
which is also another third method for getting sound or video from your phone 
to your home theater system to Apple TV.

Re: iPhone sanitizer

I got one of these from Mystic Access and it has voice on it and it's simple to 
use. It's supposed to get rid of germs on your phone. You can use it for your 
money, keys and other items. I really like mine.

Re: Seeking information about shortcuts

[Dave Clement]

Hi, 

The AIRA app supports two vocal commands that can work with SIRI. Using SIRI 
you can say
"make an AIRA call"
or 
"Call AIRA"

and the app will open. I don't think you need to do anything to set up these 
commands other than turning on the SIRI opotion in AIRA's settings. I do not 
use AIRA so I can't give any further details here.

Thanks to those who have responded to my inquiry. 

What I hope to do is to set up a shortcut which would allow me to give Siri a

which would connect me to Aira.  It doesn't matter to me whether it is a 
command for Siri or perhaps a command to tap on the back of the S E 2. 
, the idea being anything which would require as little interaction with the 
iPhone as possible.

iPhone sanitizer

[Jim Portillo]

Good evening,

Has anyone used or does anyone currently use one of those UV Phone
sanitizers? I know they sell them at Staples, and someone wants to get me
one as a gift, but I wonder how well they work and if a blind person will be
able to use them.

Are there alternatives to the Staples ones that maybe talk or give audible
feedback?

Jim

RE: Seeking information about shortcuts

[Richard Turner]

As someone pointed out with Be My Eyes, the shortcut is there for you to add.
Open Be My Eyes.
Open Settings within the Be My Eyes app.
Find and double tap on the  Siri shortcuts button.
There is one called, “Call volunteer” just activate that and choose add then 
save.
When you tell Siri to “call volunteer” it will call the next available 
volunteer using Be My Eyes.
Or, you can customize it and change the command to whatever you want.
I do not know if Aira has the same feature since I pretty much don’t use it.

Thanks to those who have responded to my inquiry.

What I hope to do is to set up a shortcut which would allow me to give Siri a 
specific command which would connect me to Be My Eyes, and a  different phrase 
which would connect me to Aira.  It doesn't matter to me whether it is a 
command for Siri or perhaps a command to tap on the back of the S E 2.
, the idea being anything which would require as little interaction with the 
iPhone as possible.

Subject: iPhone 12 and Voiceover

Hi there,

 

This morning I took delivery of a new iPhone 12.

 

I have just gone through the setup process and elected to restore my apps etc 
from my most recent iCloud backup.  

 

Towards the end of the setup process I was asked to download and instal the 
latest version of the iOS which I did.  Upon completion of that process the 
iPhone showed me a screen indicating how much of the iCloud restore was left 
and the length of time it would take.  Now that that has completed, Voiceover 
is still loaded because I can hear the clicks but there is no speech.  I have 
tried double tapping the screen with 3 fingers in case speech had been turned 
off but that wouldn’t appear to be the case.  I have even tried turning 
Voiceover off and back on by triple clicking the side button but all I get is 
clicks and no speech.  Does anyone know what has happened and how I can get 
speech back please?

 

Many thanks for any help,

 

Andrew

Re: iPhone 12 and Voiceover

[Ignacio Suarez]

That happened to me when I got my iPhone 12 Pro Max about two weeks ago. The 
voiceover came back after a few hours. I think what it does, is that all your 
back up is trying to sinking into your phone. That is the reason it doesn’t 
work at the beginning. I called Apple technical support, but they were not able 
to do anything at the beginning. I suggest you wait for a few hours until your 
phone sinks in all your back up. I hope this works for you.

iPhone 12 and Voiceover

[Andrew Roberts]

Hi there,

 

This morning I took delivery of a new iPhone 12.

 

I have just gone through the setup process and elected to restore my apps etc 
from my most recent iCloud backup.  

 

Towards the end of the setup process I was asked to download and instal the 
latest version of the iOS which I did.  Upon completion of that process the 
iPhone showed me a screen indicating how much of the iCloud restore was left 
and the length of time it would take.  Now that that has completed, Voiceover 
is still loaded because I can hear the clicks but there is no speech.  I have 
tried double tapping the screen with 3 fingers in case speech had been turned 
off but that wouldn’t appear to be the case.  I have even tried turning 
Voiceover off and back on by triple clicking the side button but all I get is 
clicks and no speech.  Does anyone know what has happened and how I can get 
speech back please?

 

Many thanks for any help,

 

Andrew

Re: Looking for a product

[Alan Lemly]

If you're looking for the Belkin Rock Star adapter with the lightning male 
connector to attach to your iPhone and both 3.5mm and lightning female ports 
for attaching an audio plug and a lightning cable for listening and charging at 
the same time, you can also get it from the Apple Store for $34.95 with free 
shipping. I didn't check the prices at Amazon. Here is a link to it at the 
Apple Store:

I believe the Rockstar from Belin is a splitter, in other words at one end you 
have a male Lightning connector and on the other end you have a female 3.5Mm 
connector and a female Lightning connector. This way you can plug in some 3.5Mm 
headphones and still have a Lightning port you can use to charge the phone. Is 
this what you’re looking for?



It sounds like you just want the dongle that has a male Lightning connector on 
one end and a female 3.5Mm connector on the other end. If that’s what you’re 
looking for, I’m not exactly sure what that’s called or who makes them. I got 
one with my iPhone and I’ve picked up a few at Best Buy, but I’ve never ordered 
one.

Re: iphone transferring to Homepod questions.

[Agent086b]

Hi,
to transfer  iPhone to HomePod unlock the phone and hold it just above the Pod 
and it will move what is playing on the phone to the Pod.
So as long as there is something playing on the phone the Pod will keep playing.
To bring it back to the phone repeat the process and the phone will start 
playing what was on the Pod.
Max.

Re: Seeking information about shortcuts

[Dave Clement]

Hello, 

Here is an Apple Support article that may help you learn to use the Short Cut 
app to create your own short cuts. 
https://support.apple.com/en-ca/guide/shortcuts/welcome/ios

Many 3rd party apps provide short cuts that you can install. "Be My Eyes" has 
one such available. 

1. Open "Be My Eyes"
2. Double tap the "settings" button
3. Double tap the "call volunteer" button under "suggested short cut"
4. This will bring up a screen from which you can tailor the phrase you want to 
use to activate the short cut and save the short cut on your device. 

As I say, many non-Apple created apps now support this kind of short cut 
option. Just look in the "settings" option of any app to see if such exists. 

Note - I am referencing IOS 14.2 in this discussion.

Looking for a product

[Donald L. Roberts]

I miss the 3.5 mm. audio jack on my S E 2.  I have heard of a product 
whose exact name I don't know, but it is something like a Belkin    Rock 
star.  I believe there is more than one product with a similar name, so 
I would appreciate someone pointing out which product I want.  I am 
looking for the one which has only the 3.5 mm. jack as well a the port 
for the lightning charger.



Thanks.


Don Roberts

Seeking information about shortcuts

[Donald L. Roberts]

Now that I have an S E 2 running IOS 14.2, I would like to learn how to 
create audio shortcuts.  Specifically, I want to learn how to create a  
shortcut for Be My Eyes and also a shortcut for Aira.


Thanks in advance for feedback.

Re: Does anyone know about Tunein stations no longer available

[Richard Turner]

Sadly, radio has been on a downhill slide for 40 years or mWhen I first moved 
to Salem Oregon, for college, which gets most of its radio from the Portland 
radio market, there were something like 40 or 50 different owners.Move ahead 
about 20 years and there were about 5 owners.The large conglomerates were/are 
buying up the small stations.It is now difficult to find any consistent local 
news,traffic etc.The internet is going the same way.I canceled my TuneIn 
premium because they lost the NFL and I think MLB.SSo back to the MLB app, and 
the Gameday football app, and the world goes on.

Richard

"You know," said Arthur, "it's at times like this, when I'm trapped in a Vogon 
airlock with a man from Betelgeuse, and about to die of asphyxiation in deep 
space, that I really wish I'd listened to what my mother told me when I was 
young."
"Why, what did she tell you?"
"I don't know, I didn't listen."

Re: Does anyone know about Tunein stations no longer available

[Duane Steele]

Kathy, and others who may be interested, Unfortunately, there's a struggle 
going on with all of the internet radio services, especially TuneIn and iHeart 
Radio. Over the past year, iHeart Radio has bought many of TuneIn's stations... 
a prime example, WBZ in Boston. I have a really good friend who keepsup with 
all the changes in radio, and he tells me that all of the internet radio 
streaming services are in a virtual struggle to gain the upper hand when it 
comes to internet streaming. I have seen changes also when I try to stream 
radio with my second generation Victor Stream. Sorry to share such bad news. 
But radio, overall seems to be headed on a downward spiral, except perhaps for 
SiriusXm.
 

Peace & Blessings,
Pastor Duane L. Steele

Re: Login to Mac mini with Braille display

['Harry Bell' via VIPhone]

VoiceOver comes on immediately my Mac starts up so my orbit reader should 
connect. The display is set to 6 dot UEB BY DEFAULT. Is there a Braille command 
to change to 8 dot and tgen back to 6 dot? And is such a command executed while 
the orbit reader 20 is turned on? Off? Or when I’ve opened the Menu?
Thanks

Re: Login to Mac mini with Braille display

VoiceOver has to be running before the braille display can do anything.On an 
iPhone, I can enter my passcode by switching to 8 dot brl.When does VO load on 
your Mac?If it is on before the password, I would think it would work. Perhaps 
time to call Apple?

airlock with a man from Betelgeuse, and about to die of asphyxiation in deep 
space, that I really wish I'd listened to what my mother told me when I was 
young."
"Why, what did she tell you?"
"I don't know, I didn't listen."
-- Douglas Adams, The Hitchhiker's Guide To The Galaxy
