Re: Blood Pressure Testing Device Opinions

thanks very much Simon glad you finally got it.  Janet

On 08/11/2021 22:30, Simon A Fogarty wrote:


Hi Janet,

Yes I finally got it 10 days ago,

The app is fantastically accessible,

The actual device is very easy to use pretty much all the time,

Although if you move it stops measuring, or switchs off,

It’s probably 5 inchs in length and may be 2 inchs square at the end,

One end opens to have the triple a batteries in it,

Which there is a little bit of paper to stop the power connection when 
it’s new,


To turn it on, you unroll it and put it on your arm,

Then  once the cuff is farsened closed it gives you a measure button 
in the app which then starts the measuring of the blood pressure,


So the motor and sensors are in the  little box and it takes a matter 
of a minute if that to do the measurement


And then the app displays the measurement which I have to flick to find.

Really really easy and I believe well worth the $250 nz dollars I paid 
for it.


Only issue I had was the shipping time,

Seemingly shipping to Australia and NZ is having delays due to the virus

Hope that helps.

Hi Janet,

You can use it in any country,

I’m in New Zealand so well on the underside of the globe,

This device was suggested by a lot of folks in the USA

And the app to use is called

But yeah once it arrives I can give a bit of a run down on it for you.

I believe it speaks the test results to you when you take the test.

And the app I believe lets you share the results with your doctor
via the net and or from the app.

But hey I’ll let you know.

Hi All,

I'm in the market of replacing my current Reizen blood
pressure testing machine, mainly because it's almost 20 years
old and seems to be reporting irraticly.

The hose doesn't seem to have any cracks, and the hose seems
to plug in an seal sufficiently

So, I'm looking for a replacement device and would like to get
opinions of some good talking blood pressure testing machines
from all you good folks.

All input is greatly appreciated and graciously accepted. 
Thanks mooy moocho.

Stay safe & take care. Mike.

turning off my Bose frames entirely disconnect Bluetooth or rather turn off the 
setting for Bluetooth and then turn it on again in order to have it not do what 
it did so I don’t know if this is part of the bug or if it is a bug. And of

then it does the same thing again and then of course it does the same thing I

Hey great buy,

I have the pros and they are great,

I’ve had mine since about 2 years ago.

I believe the new audio features came with firmware updates,

Oh and the newer airpods pro as of October
Come with a wireless and magsafe abled charging case.

My case only does wireless charging.

Well you’re not the only one that has issues with Siri at times. I’ve noticed

check to see if my device meaning the iPhone is on the same network as the Home

I want yet but if I were to get either of those I know that those would work 
very well especially when it comes to opening apps I never had this issue

Hi, Everyone,

The subject says it all!  For the past couple of days, my Siri isn't working.  
It did start to work this morning, and I thought I was okay.  However, it's not 
working again and I'm in a quandary as to what I should do to fix this.  Any 
suggestions would be greatly appreciated.  I am in the market to buy a new 
phone, anyway, but in the meantime, I would like to use Siri until I do get a 
new phone.

Thanks so much.

Hello Esther:

I love my AirPods so far. I’ve had them for a little over a week and I’m 
finding them to be very useful and very comfortable. The one thing I will say 
is that it’s hard to use them when you’re asleep lol! The earbuds fall out of 
your ears. Maybe I need to create some kind of an ear sock or something. Other 
than that I love them!

 AirPods Max. It's clear to see that 
AirPods 3 is an impressive culmination of what Apple has learned in the 
headphone market in just a few short years, and it's the best set of basic 
AirPods they have ever made.

After using the AirPods 3 all week, I have completely fallen in love with them. 
They have been a delight to use, from how easy they pair with all my Apple 
devices to just how much improved the sound quality is over the  
 AirPods 2. However, the same issues 
the AirPods have always had are still present on the AirPods 3, and that's 
mainly by design. Add in the precarious price point, and you have a product 
that is simultaneously very compelling to some people and an absolute 
non-starter to others.

 


AirPods 3: Price and availability

The AirPods 3 comes in a wireless charging case compatible with MagSafe and has 
a new design that looks a lot more like the AirPods Pro than the old AirPods 2, 
except for the silicone ear tips. While they don't have ANC, they do have 
decent 6-hour battery life in the buds, work with Spatial Audio and Dolby 
Atmos, and the new skin-detect sensor.

The AirPods (3rd generation) are available now from wherever you usually buy 
your Apple devices. They cost $179 and, unfortunately for some, only come in 
white.


AirPods 3: All the good things

In my best efforts to not bury the lede, I'll start with this — the AirPods 3 
sound quite a bit better than the AirPods 2, and honestly, pretty close to the 
quality of AirPods Pro. Of course, you don't have silicone ear tips to get the 
excellent sound isolation that the AirPods Pro can give you, but if you put ear 
tips on the AirPods 3, the sound would likely be very similar without the ANC.

The bass performance on the AirPods 3 is probably where you'll notice the most 
difference right out of the gate. It's much more present than in the previous 
models and makes listening to heavy rock, EDM, and other bass-heavy genres much 
more enjoyable. The mids and the highs always come through clear and crisp, so 
I have not noticed any clipping, and since Apple threw in its Adaptive EQ 
technology into the AirPods 3, the sound should always be pretty consistent.

Spatial Audio is cool, but not always the best.

That brings me to the other significant audio enhancement, the AirPods (3rd 
generation), Spatial Audio. This is a feature you need to experience for 
yourself to really hear the difference it can make. In most instances, to my 
ears, it sounds incredible. It's like having surround sound in your ears, and 
it makes music — and especially movies — sound much more dynamic and full. Of 
course, it can

Hi, Everyone,

The subject says it all!  For the past couple of days, my Siri isn't working.  
It did start to work this morning, and I thought I was okay.  However, it's not 
working again and I'm in a quandary as to what I should do to fix this.  Any 
suggestions would be greatly appreciated.  I am in the market to buy a new 
phone, anyway, but in the meantime, I would like to use Siri until I do get a 
new phone.

Thanks so much.

Esther

Hey Folks,

 

Sorry coming in to this late,

 

I know that some countries get pretty cold in winter,

 

But if it’s that cold you have to wear gloves 

Isn’t it then getting to cold for your phone to be out in the wintery air?

 

I just cut the tips off my polypro gloves but then the coldest we get is may be 
0 C in which case kiwis stay in doors rather than going out and getting cold.

 

Well sensible ones do anyway.

 

Or just cut the tips of your gloves fingers out so you can touch the screen 
with the tip or pad of the finger and answer the phone.

 

You would only have to do it with one digit

What do I do, if a call comes, and I have gloves on. 

 

I get it, the simple answer – remove gloves. But, I was in the grocery store, 
had to dig phone out, then get off gloves? Well, I am just wondering if it can 
be done, answer the phone with gloves on?

Hey Folks,

 

Sorry coming in to this late,

 

I know that some countries get pretty cold in winter,

 

But if it’s that cold you have to wear gloves 

Isn’t it then getting to cold for your phone to be out in the wintery air?

 

I just cut the tips off my polypro gloves but then the coldest we get is may be 
0 C in which case kiwis stay in doors rather than going out and getting cold.

 

Well sensible ones do anyway.

 

Or just cut the tips of your gloves fingers out so you can touch the screen 
with the tip or pad of the finger and answer the phone.

 

You would only have to do it with one digit

What do I do, if a call comes, and I have gloves on. 

 

I get it, the simple answer – remove gloves. But, I was in the grocery store, 
had to dig phone out, then get off gloves? Well, I am just wondering if it can 
be done, answer the phone with gloves on?

It did start to work this morning, and I thought I was okay.  However, it's not 
working again and I'm in a quandary as to what I should do to fix this.  Any

Thanks so much.

Re: AirPods 3 review: A fantastic set of earbuds with a problematic price point | iMore

2021-11-08 Thread Mickey Quenzer 
Hello Esther:
I love my AirPods so far. I’ve had them for a little over a week and I’m 
finding them to be very useful and very comfortable. The one thing I will say 
is that it’s hard to use them when you’re asleep lol! The earbuds fall out of 
your ears. Maybe I need to create some kind of an ear sock or something. Other 
than that I love them!

 over-the-ear headphones AirPods Max. It's clear to see that AirPods 3 is 
 an impressive culmination of what Apple has learned in the headphone 
 market in just a few short years, and it's the best set of basic AirPods 
 they have ever made.
 
 After using the AirPods 3 all week, I have completely fallen in love with 
 them. They have been a delight to use, from how easy they pair with all my 
 Apple devices to just how much improved the sound quality is over the 
 AirPods 2. However, the same issues the AirPods have always had are still 
 present on the AirPods 3, and that's mainly by design. Add in the 
 precarious price point, and you have a product that is simultaneously very 
 compelling to some people and an absolute non-starter to others.
 
 
 AirPods 3: Price and availability
 
 
 
 Source: Luke Filipowicz / iMore
 The AirPods 3 comes in a wireless charging case compatible with MagSafe 
 and has a new design that looks a lot more like the AirPods Pro than the 
 old AirPods 2, except for the silicone ear tips. While they don't have 
 ANC, they do have decent 6-hour battery life in the buds, work with 
 Spatial Audio and Dolby Atmos, and the new skin-detect sensor.
 
 The AirPods (3rd generation) are available now from wherever you usually 
 buy your Apple devices. They cost $179 and, unfortunately for some, only 
 come in white.
 
 AirPods 3: All the good things
 
 
 Source: Luke Filipowicz / iMore
 In my best efforts to not bury the lede, I'll start with this — the 
 AirPods 3 sound quite a bit better than the AirPods 2, and honestly, 
 pretty close to the quality of AirPods Pro. Of course, you don't have 
 silicone ear tips to get the excellent sound isolation that the AirPods 
 Pro can give you, but if you put ear tips on the AirPods 3, the sound 
 would likely be very similar without the ANC.
 
 The bass performance on the AirPods 3 is probably where you'll notice the 
 most difference right out of the gate. It's much more present than in the 
 previous models and makes listening to heavy rock, EDM, and other 
 bass-heavy genres much more enjoyable. The mids and the highs always come 
 through clear and crisp, so I have not noticed any clipping, and since 
 Apple threw in its Adaptive EQ technology into the AirPods 3, the sound 
 should always be pretty consistent.
 
 Spatial Audio is cool, but not always the best.
 
 That brings me to the other significant audio enhancement, the AirPods 
 (3rd generation), Spatial Audio. This is a feature you need to experience 
 for yourself to really hear the difference it can make. In most instances, 
 to my ears, it sounds incredible. It's like having surround sound in your 
 ears, and it makes music — and especially movies — sound much more dynamic 
 and full. Of course, it can depend on what you're listening to, a few 
 tracks I have heard with Spatial Audio have sounded a bit odd, seems to 
 happen more with rock than other genres in my experience, but overall I'm 
 happy to have a pair of headphones that can finally take advantage of it.
 
 
 Source: Luke Filipowicz / iMore
 What's maybe even a more pleasant surprise is just how comfortable the 
 AirPods 3 are in your ears. The design of the AirPods 3 are much more akin 
 to the AirPods Pro, as they sport smaller stems and a more tapered earbud 
 end that sits a little further in your ear than the AirPods 2 did. They 
 are nice and light but fit pretty fit snuggly in your ears. I couldn't 
 find a way to dislodge them from my ears without purposely trying to; even 
 while going for a jog around the neighborhood, they stayed perfectly in 
 place. Of course, they aren't as secure in your ear as silicone tips would 
 be, but if the AirPods 3 fit in your ear nicely, I think you

My Siri Isn't Working

2021-11-08 Thread Esther Levegnale 
Hi, Everyone,

The subject says it all!  For the past couple of days, my Siri isn't working.  
It did start to work this morning, and I thought I was okay.  However, it's not 
working again and I'm in a quandary as to what I should do to fix this.  Any 
suggestions would be greatly appreciated.  I am in the market to buy a new 
phone, anyway, but in the meantime, I would like to use Siri until I do get a 
new phone.

Thanks so much.

RE: How can I answer the phone with gloves on?

2021-11-08 Thread Simon A Fogarty 
Hey Folks,

Sorry coming in to this late,

I know that some countries get pretty cold in winter,

But if it’s that cold you have to wear gloves
Isn’t it then getting to cold for your phone to be out in the wintery air?

I just cut the tips off my polypro gloves but then the coldest we get is may be 
0 C in which case kiwis stay in doors rather than going out and getting cold.

Well sensible ones do anyway.

Or just cut the tips of your gloves fingers out so you can touch the screen 
with the tip or pad of the finger and answer the phone.

You would only have to do it with one digit

I get it, the simple answer – remove gloves. But, I was in the grocery store, 
had to dig phone out, then get off gloves? Well, I am just wondering if it can

RE: Blood Pressure Testing Device Opinions

2021-11-08 Thread Simon A Fogarty 
Hi Janet,

Yes I finally got it 10 days ago,

The app is fantastically accessible,
The actual device is very easy to use pretty much all the time,
Although if you move it stops measuring, or switchs off,

It’s probably 5 inchs in length and may be 2 inchs square at the end,

One end opens to have the triple a batteries in it,
Which there is a little bit of paper to stop the power connection when it’s new,

To turn it on, you unroll it and put it on your arm,
Then  once the cuff is farsened closed it gives you a measure button in the app 
which then starts the measuring of the blood pressure,

So the motor and sensors are in the  little box and it takes a matter of a 
minute if that to do the measurement

And then the app displays the measurement which I have to flick to find.

Really really easy and I believe well worth the $250 nz dollars I paid for it.

Only issue I had was the shipping time,

Seemingly shipping to Australia and NZ is having delays due to the virus

Hope that helps.

it has all the details.
Also, you don't have to look for tactical or military gloves, many outdoor

make thin fleece gloves as well as thicker ski gloves which are touch screen

No.

However, if one turned on Voice Control, which has nothing whatever to do with 
Siri, there may be a way, but then you are dealing with learning how to control 
Voice Control.
Gloves would be much easier.

Right, Sieghard. I tried it, had to do Hay Siri, but it worked! Glad I can

Richard, you are incorrect, Siri will answer phone calls, see my first message 
it has all the details.
Also, you don't have to look for tactical or military gloves, many outdoor 
brands like North Face, Mountain Hardwear, Outdoor Research, Black Diamond etc. 
make thin fleece gloves as well as thicker ski gloves which are touch screen 
compatible.

RE: How can I answer the phone with gloves on?

2021-11-08 Thread Richard Turner 
This is me, eating my words.  (Quite tasty.)

I had missed that little feature announcement I guess in the flurry of iOS 
updates this year from 14 to 15.1.

Very good to know.  Yes, this would alleviate the need for special gloves so 
long as using Hey Siri is an option at that moment.

Yes, other gloves work.  I have some gloves that work and I didn't think they 
would.

But, I'd rather use Hey siri than try to dig my phone out while wearing gloves 
anyway.

Thanks again Sieghard for the enlightenment.

Take care,

Thanks Sieghard,
I will try again with my Airpods Max, but it didn't work when I tried it early 
after getting them.  That could have been just before 14.5.
I will let folks know if that indeed works.

It sounds like it will.

RE: How can I answer the phone with gloves on?

2021-11-08 Thread Sieghard Weitzel 
And as I said, even without a headset of any sort connected or if you don't 
have Airpods you can say "Hey Siri Answer" which worked for me without a 
headset and with wired Apple Earpods connected.

Thanks Sieghard,
I will try again with my Airpods Max, but it didn't work when I tried it early 
after getting them.  That could have been just before 14.5.
I will let folks know if that indeed works.

It sounds like it will.

Richard, you are incorrect, Siri will answer phone calls, see my first message 
it has all the details.
Also, you don't have to look for tactical or military gloves, many outdoor 
brands like North Face, Mountain Hardwear, Outdoor Research, Black Diamond etc. 
make thin fleece gloves as well as thicker ski gloves which are touch screen 
compatible.

No.

However, if one turned on Voice Control, which has nothing whatever to do with 
Siri, there may be a way, but then you are dealing with learning how to control 
Voice Control.
Gloves would be much easier.

RE: How can I answer the phone with gloves on?

2021-11-08 Thread Sieghard Weitzel 
There are a couple of options:

1. You can get gloves which are touch screen compatible which means they have 
fibers embedded in the material which are conductive and work with touch screens
2. You could wear a headset and unless you are wearing super thick gloves this 
should allow you to use the remote control on the headset to answer a call
3. Since iOS version 14.5 and if you have a set of Airpods you can simply say 
"Answer" when the phone rings and it will answer the call. This also works with 
the Plantronics Voyager Edge and maybe some other Plantronics headsets and here 
this has always worked because it's a feature of the headset not of SIRI.
I did, however, just test this both without a headset as well as with wired 
Earpods connected and while saying "Answer" doesn't do anything, when my wife 
called me I said "Hey Siri Answer" while the phone was ringing and this did 
pick up the call.

iOS 14.5 lets users answer calls with Siri when using headphone s -

What do I do, if a call comes, and I have gloves on.

I get it, the simple answer – remove gloves. But, I was in the grocery store, 
had to dig phone out, then get off gloves? Well, I am just wondering if it can 
be done, answer the phone with gloves on?

I believe it speaks the test results to you when you take the test.

And the app I believe lets you share the results with your doctor via

The hose doesn't seem to have any cracks, and the hose seems to

So, I'm looking for a replacement device and would like to get

All input is greatly appreciated and graciously accepted.  Thanks

What do I do, if a call comes, and I have gloves on.

What do I do, if a call comes, and I have gloves on.

I get it, the simple answer - remove gloves. But, I was in the grocery store, 
had to dig phone out, then get off gloves? Well, I am just wondering if it can 
be done, answer the phone with gloves on?

tv subscriptions

2021-11-08 Thread Patti Johnson 
So many of them don't work with voice over or voice view in Amazon's 
case.  I just looked at Youtube tv and found it has one channel I have 
wanted to get , called Decades.  It is supposed to be over the air here 
but I cna't access it.  I know it's  silly but I would love to have that 
channel so I am tempted.  I'd get rid of my c able and I'd lose Antenna 
tv and Me T TV but that is over the air so I could see that if I 
wanted.  The only problem is I'd luse my Encore package and my FETV 
channel.  So it would be a tough choice in some ways.  But if it works 
on my Fire Stick, I may get it anyway.


Has anyone used Sling TV successfully, just curious.

RE: Aftershokz contact information, email preferred

2021-11-08 Thread Richard Turner 
Thank you for that.
I sent an email and it has not bounced back, so that would appear to be a good 
address for them.

I wonder why they don't have that on their web site.  At least, it wasn't 
anywhere I could find it.

Now, we shall see if a human reads those emails.

Later,
