Re: what to choose

[Joshua Hendrickson]

I heard today that when talking to someone at apple accessibility,
that the 13 pro iPhone goes up to one terabyte in size.  The cost for
this phone is about $1500.  Of course this price doesn't include apple
care, or any tax.  Who knows, maybe this time next year, there might
even be a phone with 2 terabytes of storage.  When it comes to good
sounding bluetooth speakers, I like my fourth generation echo, and my
bose speaker.  I've also got an anker motion+ that has very good sound
especially with the bass boost button.  Tribit also makes some very
nice speakers as well.  I've got a 30 watt speaker from zoetree that
sounds quite nice as well.  There's a w-king 80 watt speaker I'd love
to try out as well.

You have to set it up in the Health app and you either require a printed 
version of your vaccine passport or have the file on a different device since 
you have to scan the QR code, it will then ask you if you want to add it to 
Wallet.

There is also one other thing to remember and that is whether the format of the 
vaccine passport meets the requirement for having it on your phone, can’t quite 
remember what this is called, but you can of course try it since I assume most 
countries now will issues vaccine passports which meet this format/requirement.

Hi Fazil,

 

As far as I know you can’t print from the Wallet, but since you must also have 
your vaccine proof saved as JPG and/or PDF for the Federal version which you 
would have needed in order to scan it and get it into Wallet in the first place 
you can simply open that and print it.

 

Fazil, I happened to see this as I am currently at a dive resort with decent 
Wi-Fi, but just so you know, tomorrow we are travelling back to my wife’s 
family’s place and once I’m there my internet connection is not great. And for 
those who wonder what this is all about, Fazil knows what I am talking about.

Apparently, The app store is having difficulty.

Wait a while and try again.
Or call Apple to report the issue.

Re: what to choose

[Kelly Pierce]

Half of the usefulness of iPhones is iOS. To get the biggest bang for
your money, go with the most recent processor. These phones would be
from the 13 series and the SE 2022. The original SE was introduced in
2016 and is still receiving updates six years later.  I have the
iPhone Mini and love the small size and the 512 GB of storage. I plan
on transferring most of my music to this phone and buying a great
sounding Marshall Bluetooth speaker to play it on. The highest storage
level for the SE 2022 is 256 GB.

RE: Troubles with my iPhone 11 Pro

[Sieghard Weitzel]

Here are the 3 things to try before going any further:

1. Reboot the phone, i.e. close all apps in the app switcher, turn it off, wait 
30 seconds or so and turn it back on. If that doesn't help try the next.
2. Turn the phone off, pop out the SIM tray and reinsert it, then turn the 
phone back on. If that also doesn't help, try this:
3. Go to Settings > General >Reset and Reset the Network Settings. Note you 
will need your Wi-Fi password and reconnect to your Wi-Fi after the phone 
reboots.

Of course I would also check the signal strength in the status bar at the top 
if you are in a situation when a call drops to see if the signal is good.

If none of the above helps I would call my carrier, tell them that you have a 
lot of dropped calls and could they please send you a new SIM to see if that 
will help.


Take care,
Sieghard

RE: How to Increase Volume of Text Notification Sound

[Alan Lemly]

Sherry,

 

You might check Settings, Sounds and haptics, Sound volume and make sure it is 
set to 100 percent. This setting is just below the Ringer and alerts heading so 
relates to them. Next, swipe right once past the sound volume to Change with 
buttons and make sure this is turned off. With this turned off, the volume for 
your ringer and alerts will always be at 100 percent regardless of whether you 
use your volume buttons to change Voiceover volume.

Hello,

 

I have an IPhone 8 & am current on IOS.  My volume is fine & easily adjusted 
except for the text notification sound.  At times it will be fine then it will 
suddenly be quite soft such that I don’t notice when I get a text.  Everything 
else has the volume I want.  I even turned the volume up louder than I want 
thinking it would fix the text notification sound but no luck.  I have looked 
through settings & found no way to just adjust the text notification sound.  I 
looked at choosing some different sounds for this notification but none of them 
are as loud as I’d like.  I have not found a pattern in what seems to cause the 
notification sound to go down in volume as much of the time it is fine.  

 

Any ideas on how I can increase the text notification sound?

 

Thanks,

Sherry Wells

Hi Fazil,

As far as I know you can’t print from the Wallet, but since you must also have 
your vaccine proof saved as JPG and/or PDF for the Federal version which you 
would have needed in order to scan it and get it into Wallet in the first place 
you can simply open that and print it.

Fazil, I happened to see this as I am currently at a dive resort with decent 
Wi-Fi, but just so you know, tomorrow we are travelling back to my wife’s 
family’s place and once I’m there my internet connection is not great. And for 
those who wonder what this is all about, Fazil knows what I am talking about.

RE: Printing Vaccine Passport from Wallet?

[Sieghard Weitzel]

You have to set it up in the Health app and you either require a printed 
version of your vaccine passport or have the file on a different device since 
you have to scan the QR code, it will then ask you if you want to add it to 
Wallet.
There is also one other thing to remember and that is whether the format of the 
vaccine passport meets the requirement for having it on your phone, can’t quite 
remember what this is called, but you can of course try it since I assume most 
countries now will issues vaccine passports which meet this format/requirement.

The problem is that when I try to put the federal in, voiceover says you have

Is it ok to keep federal in file and print it from there?

As the subject indicates, I'm having trouble putting in Face ID rather than to

RE: Having Trouble Putting in Face ID

[Sieghard Weitzel]

There is absolutely no need at all to set up Face Id in sunshine or even 
outside. It seems to be better to not do it in complete darkness, but just in a 
room with normal light from a window or artificial light is just fine.

Karen, I got out in afternoon sunshine, did not have a bit of trouble. The 
phone will give instructions, move head this way and that way, kind of like, 
when entering a fingerprint one, how it had you keep entering a finger print 
again and again. 

They say you don't have to be in bright sun, but I can tell you that, for me, 
it worked, so that is what I would do again with a new phone. 

Also, in settings, there is a setting inside Accessibility or somewhere, where 
you turn off Full Attention, although it should be off with Voiceover on. I 
can't remember exactly about that, but someone else will know exactly what I am 
talking about.

RE: recommendations for accessible kitchen scales and cooking thermometers

[Cristobal Muñoz]

I've been using the drop scale 
https://www.amazon.com/Drop-Scale-Connected-Step-Step/dp/B00TTY34KG/ref=sr_1_1?crid=18IP048LO8JAV=drop+scale=1648004603=dropscale%2Caps%2C173=8-1
  for the past four years. It measures to the gram. It's completely accessible 
or at least for what I use it for. I don't really use it for the recipe aspect. 
Just the scale part. I roast my own coffee beans and make my own coffee. So 
weighing out the beans for grinding and water for brewing for Pour-over, 
Aeropress, iced coffee Frenchpress, accuracy to the gram is  necessary to be 
able to replicate a good brew. I mean, I use it for other stuff in the kitchen, 
but I'm the coffee guy in the house. My wife will go on a rampage if she 
doesn't have her daily coffee. 
The company still puts out regular app updates and they've even reached out to 
me in the past when I've written them about an accessibility hiccup here or 
there with an update. The other day, I was wiping down the counter and knocked 
it on the floor and it's still working. Connectivity is pretty quick and 
VoiceOver reads out the weight in realtime as it fluctuates when you're adding 
or subtracting whatever it is you're weighing when it's focused on that field. 
All in all, a very good product. When I bought it, it was closer to $60, but 
looks like it's $30 now. An even better deal.
I do have a talking thermometer  that can measure up to 500º Fahrenheit but 
can't remember the name of the company right now. That one is a straight up 
talking device. No iOS app or anything. It looks like there are a few options 
to choose from on Amazon though.

Re: Charging My New iPhone 13 Pro Max

[Joshua Hendrickson]

Esther.  I don't know why you would think it would be a bad idea to
charge a brand new iPhone to 100%.  I do it all the time with my
iPhone 8, and my battery lasted me for over 2 years before needing to
be replaced.  I hope you have apple care for your new iPhone.  I
didn't have to pay a thing for my new battery.  I found out that the
13 pro with a one terabyte storage will cost $1500 not including tax
or an additional $200 for apple care.  I'm probably looking at around
$2000 or so for my next iPhone.  Especially since there might be
higher capacity phones then one terabyte models in the future.  I'd
say my iPhone 8 is good for a couple more years.  I can pay $10 per
month for apple care, a real bargain in my opinion.

Re: Opening the Alexa app on my iPhone results in a loss of speaker volume.

[Mike B]

Here's the other fix, turning on Hands Free, steps.

1. Once you have the apps voice coming through the speakers again, Go down 
to the bottom right corner of the screen, and do a single finger double tap 
on the More tab.  It's tab 5 of 5 on the bottomline tool bar.

 2. Go to the top left corner below the status bar and swipe to, Settings, 
and do a single finger double tap to open.

3. Swipe right on the screen that opens to, Alexa App Settings, and single 
finger double tap to open.

4. Swipe to, Enable Alexa hands free, and make sure it is turned on.

After turning on Alexa hands free the next time you open the Alexa app, 
Voiceover should again be working at the correct volume level.  and coming 
through the speakers.





Stay safe and take care.  Mike.  Sent from my iBarstool.

I’m pretty sure this came up a while ago, and I really didn’t pay that much 
attention. I wonder if anybody has found a workaround for the problem which 
occurs when you open the Alexa app. All of a sudden, the volume only goes 
through the earpiece which is very quiet.

  HI Pam,

   

  This app has had its accessibility problems for a long time.

   

  I also have an iPhone 8 and I can reorder items but I can’t buy anything 
new. I’ve had the same experience just last night; tried to add 2 cookies to my 
cart from McDonalds and when I double tap on the item it doesn’t go anywhere. 

   

  When I went into my cart they asked if I wanted to add anything and 2 
cookies just happened to be on the list of things you could add and this time 
it worked.

Re: Opening the Alexa app on my iPhone results in a loss of speaker volume.

[Mike B]

Hi Mary,

One way to get around this is to, after you open the Alexa app go to the app 
switcher and single finger double tap the Alexa app again.  Now the sound 
will come through your speakers.  This has to be done every time you use the 
Alexa app like this.

There's another work around and I'll post the steps as soon as I can find 
them.


Stay safe and take care.  Mike.  Sent from my iBarstool.

I’m pretty sure this came up a while ago, and I really didn’t pay that much 
attention. I wonder if anybody has found a workaround for the problem which 
occurs when you open the Alexa app. All of a sudden, the volume only goes 
through the earpiece which is very quiet.

RE: Difficulty Ordering with Doordash App

[khevener]

Interesting, I have never seen the xx more control in that app.  I typically 
have trouble accessing my cart.  So, I look over the choices then call doordash 
accessability number and place the order by phone.

HI Pam,

 

This app has had its accessibility problems for a long time.

 

I also have an iPhone 8 and I can reorder items but I can’t buy anything new. 
I’ve had the same experience just last night; tried to add 2 cookies to my cart 
from McDonalds and when I double tap on the item it doesn’t go anywhere. 

 

When I went into my cart they asked if I wanted to add anything and 2 cookies 
just happened to be on the list of things you could add and this time it worked.

Has anyone had success ordering from DoorDash recently?  It seems this app is 
very hit or miss as far as accessibility.

 

When trying to flick through the available items, focus jumps to other places 
on the list.  Also, if I do land on an item I want, double tapping it to choose 
it seems to do nothing.

 

I have an iPhone 8, so this is not the issue with the screen describe feature

Any tips would be helpful.

Re: playing voice mails on speaker

Hi Marty.  I'm not sure why your voice mails aren't playing through
your iPhone speaker.  However, I highly recommend the YouMail app.
That app makes listening to and checking voice mails extremely easy.
Good luck.

Thanks, Debbie.  I was afraid of that.  I thought I had it working when

RE: Difficulty Ordering with Doordash App

[Debbie Downey]

HI Pam,

 

This app has had its accessibility problems for a long time.

 

I also have an iPhone 8 and I can reorder items but I can’t buy anything new. 
I’ve had the same experience just last night; tried to add 2 cookies to my cart 
from McDonalds and when I double tap on the item it doesn’t go anywhere. 

 

When I went into my cart they asked if I wanted to add anything and 2 cookies 
just happened to be on the list of things you could add and this time it worked.

Subject: Difficulty Ordering with Doordash App

 

Has anyone had success ordering from DoorDash recently?  It seems this app is 
very hit or miss as far as accessibility.

 

When trying to flick through the available items, focus jumps to other places 
on the list.  Also, if I do land on an item I want, double tapping it to choose 
it seems to do nothing.

 

I have an iPhone 8, so this is not the issue with the screen describe feature 
(if that is the correct name).

 

Any tips would be helpful.

Re: Opening the Alexa app on my iPhone results in a loss of speaker volume.

[Andy Baracco]

This happens to me. What happens is that the output switches from the 
speaker to the earpiece.

I’m pretty sure this came up a while ago, and I really didn’t pay that much 
attention. I wonder if anybody has found a workaround for the problem which 
occurs when you open the Alexa app. All of a sudden, the volume only goes 
through the earpiece which is very quiet.

Hello,

I have an IPhone 8 & am current on IOS.  My volume is fine & easily adjusted 
except for the text notification sound.  At times it will be fine then it will 
suddenly be quite soft such that I don’t notice when I get a text.  Everything 
else has the volume I want.  I even turned the volume up louder than I want 
thinking it would fix the text notification sound but no luck.  I have looked 
through settings & found no way to just adjust the text notification sound.  I 
looked at choosing some different sounds for this notification but none of them 
are as loud as I’d like.  I have not found a pattern in what seems to cause the 
notification sound to go down in volume as much of the time it is fine.

Any ideas on how I can increase the text notification sound?

Re: Orbit Writer

[Jennie Facer]

Hi Brandon,

What I was trying to say is that I recommend typing with uncontracted Braille. 
I also changed my typing feedback to characters under hardware keyboards and 
then it would tell me what I was backspacing. I hope this helps a little bit. I 
gave up and went back to my trusty Bluetooth keyboard. Lol.

RE: Orbit Writer

[Christopher Chaltain]

I'm not quite following your message, but like I said, if you're using 
contracted braille, VoiceOver will get confused when you start back spacing.

Wow! When I changed my typing feedback to characters, my Orbit writer does tell 
me what I am backspacing, but it does something rather weird. When I backspace 
something, it puts in wesrd characters. I'm playing with it now trying to 
figure it out. When I typed in characters andthen backspaced it, it entered 
weird things. It now is working fine, but that was definitely weird. I'll play

Wow! When I changed my typing feedback to characters, my Orbit writer does tell 
me what I am backspacing, but it does something rather weird. When I backspace 
something, it puts in wesrd characters. I'm playing with it now trying to 
figure it out. When I typed in characters andthen backspaced it, it entered 
weird things. It now is working fine, but that was definitely weird. I'll play

Hi,

For some reason, I can't get the Orbt writer to tell me what I am backspacing. 
I may toy turning my settings to words or something to see if that works, but 
for now, I can't tell what I'm writing.

Re: Having Trouble Putting in Face ID

[Esther Levegnale]

Hey, Carolyn!

Way to go!  In other words--you go, girl!  Good for you.  I'll never forget the 
words my Dad instilled into me.  He said, and I quote:  "Never stop learning."  
He said these words to me when I graduated college way back in 1965.  My iPhone 
13 Pro Max is a gem and it didn't take me long to learn the gestures.  I do 
have to get a better handle on Face ID, but I'm, going to try some new tricks.

Again, kudos to you!

Esther

RE: Having Trouble Putting in Face ID

[Star Gazer]

Also check your ccessability settings to make sure that 
the attention aware feature is turned off, you may not be looking at the phone 
the way it wants.

Karen, I got out in afternoon sunshine, did not have a bit of trouble. The 
phone will give instructions, move head this way and that way, kind of like, 
when entering a fingerprint one, how it had you keep entering a finger print 
again and again. 

They say you don't have to be in bright sun, but I can tell you that, for me, 
it worked, so that is what I would do again with a new phone. 

Also, in settings, there is a setting inside Accessibility or somewhere, where 
you turn off Full Attention, although it should be off with Voiceover on. I 
can't remember exactly about that, but someone else will know exactly what I am 
talking about.

Re: Uber airport run

[caspicer3]

Hello I just looked into the same type of ride. Once you choose your 
destination in the Uber app it will show you an opportunity to book in advance 
for the airport. I would allow at least two hours due to traffic in and around 
Orlando. You should be able to schedule this week for next week and you will 
not be charged until you actually take the trip.
Hope this helps you.

Regards,
Charles

Uber airport run

[William Outman]

Hi,list. 
I thought I would ask a few things about scheduling a ride through Uber. Next 
week I need to catch a flight just after 5 am, and Siri tells me the trip is a 
little over an hour in light traffic at that hour. So first I need to know 
about how far ahead to schedule pick up at my place to account for travel time 
and check in as well as navigation at the airport. As it may be at an odd hour, 
I have been advised to schedule in advance to be sure I can get a driver. How 
far ahead should I reserve and how do I do this?  Will I be billed when I 
schedule or when the trip occurs?  If this matters, I’m going to Orlando 
International from Daytona Beach.

from some older people on different lists how they couldn't learn to use an 
iPhone or that it is to hard.  The iPhone is awesome and I really enjoy using 
mine.
