News App Annoyance
Hello, When using the native News app on my iPhone 6-plus,Voiceover says "Une the rotor to access headings" after selecting a story to read and advancing through it. It happens whenever there is a break in the text like a title, paragraph, etc.. Using the rotor doesn't seem to help.

Re: News App Annoyance
Thanks a lot for the tip. I haven't use the app until recently. I don't know why using the two-finger flick down gesture didn't occur to me.

I don't know what is triggering this gratuitous message nor do I know how to eliminate it if you are flicking right through a message. However, as you may have discovered, continuously reading the article via the "two-finger down" flick will not speak this message. The article will continue uninterrupted until its end.

Re: Comcast app and audio description???
Hi, Try the app called "xfinity TV". I've been playing with it a little and you do get DBS when it's available. From the main menue, go to Settings then to accessibility and you'll find where you can toggle DVS on and off. The listings show whether DVS and Closed Captioning are available. The Channel picker and Channel Surfer are pretty accessible. The "TV Remote" and the "X-1 Remote" apps have limited accessibility. Some functions work and some don't. I usually end up just using the cable box remote.

Hello everyone, I usually use Craigslist on my laptop, if I want to sale something locally, or if I want to purchase something. I have even found apartments this way. I guess it's been a week since I last went to the site. I went there about an hour ago, as I would like to find another apartment. However, the site was strange, and didn't make sense. When I went to view apartments, I saw all these numbers, instead of links that said 1 bedroom apartment, and so on. I tried to enter on one of the links. But from what I could tell, nothing happened. So I am not sure what is going on. I tell you all this long story for a reason. Is there an app for Craigslist, that works with the Iphone, or Ipad? How accessible might it be? Also, if there isn't an App for Craigslist, are there other accessible Apps that offer apartment, or roommate listings, as well as other things. Such as computer stuff, and the like? I have a sighted friend who uses offer-up, though I know this doesn't have a housing section. I tried this on my Iphone a couple of months ago, and unfortunately it didn't seem accessible at all. I mainly want a site that will offer a range of housing options, but more with private landlords. I don't like big management companies. That's a personal choice. If anyone has any ideas for me, I would really appreciate hearing from you. Thank you, Terri -- The following information is important for all members of the V iPhone list.

IOS Focus Issue
Hello, I have a 6-Plus with the latest IOS update. Just in the last few days, whenever I close an app Voiceover focus is on the notification bar at the top of thescreen instead of the main screen. I've tried poking around in settings but can't find anything that sounds like it might relate to the issue. Suggestions would be welcome.

Re: any neato users out there?
Hi, According to the Neato Robotics web site, if you're not going to be using the vacuum for an extended period, you should make sure the battery is fully charged, disconnect the battery and stor the vacuum in a cool dry place. Before using the vacuum after it's done hibernating, reconnect the battery and make sure it's fully charged before using it for the first time.

Mr. Ed -Original Message- From: viphone@googlegroups.com [mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Sieghard Weitzel Sent: Thursday, May 25, 2017 3:41 AM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: RE: the cost of staying connected I totally agree that many want the latest and upgrading every year or every two years is somewhat expensive. Some may argue that they have this great plan from their provider which lets them upgrade every year, but of course if you really look at it you will find out that no provider does this out of the goodness of their hearts and in the end you pay through the nose for such a privilege. Then there are those who have multiple smartphones like an Android and an iPhone in order to "stay current with technology" or to "have the best of both worlds". Also some have multiple iDevices and to me that is also a waste of money. At one point I decided to keep my old 5S around and use it at home on WiFi but I quickly realized that I rarely did and always used my new 6S Plus anyways and while I can see how the large screen of an iPad is attractive for sighted people, it doesn't do much for me. I have read messages on here from people who have a very limited income yet they have an iPhone and an iPad, an Apple TV and multiple music and TV streaming services and I sort of wonder if they don't realize that all of this adds up to be a pretty significant cost, at the same time some of the same people complain about some of the expensive apps like KNFB Reader or about paying $5 a month for having a Jaws SMA (it's $120 every two years so it does work out to be just $5 a month which is half of what most of us pay for Apple Music or Spotify). I think Deidre does have a point, but unless you are mostly at home where a landline does the trick and maybe a pay as you go flipphone is enough for the odd time you go somewhere, I think the additional cost for a smartphone plan is justifiable considering what a smartphone offers (GPS, OCR anywhere you go, accessible texting etc.). For anybody who is working or running a business it is more or less essential nowadays, I need access to my email, often apps are easier to use than websites when it comes to making a quick online banking transaction, posting something on Facebook, tracking a package or even maintaining your profiles for Google My Business and so on. At times I can actually be away from my business to do something personal or recreational simply because I am still connected and able to do something if I have to. In a way it's not so different for a sighted person with cars. How many couples have a car each, it costs a lot to buy the thing in the first place and thousands and thousands each year for insurance, gas, parking and repairs/maintenance. Especially if you live in the city you could probably get by using public transportation and take a cab or an Uber when you have to, most of us who don't have sighted partners who drive do it all the time. But being able to jump into a car any time you want for a quick trip somewhere is just so convenient. I live in a rather small town of about 6,000 people, our one local cab company doesn't even use a meter, they charge $8 for a trip in town no matter if it's half a mile from the grocery store back to my house or 2 miles from one side of town to the other. If you do a return trip inside I think an hour or hour and a half then it's $11 for both. My wife is sighted but has epilepsy so can't drive either and we spend maybe $1,000 a year on cab rides for times when the weather is bad, we have more than we can or want to carry etc. If we owned a car I'd spend that alone on insurance let alone buying gas, new tires or dividing the initial purchase price by the lifespan of the vehicle. Interestingly enough people often buy used cars, sometimes cheap old beaters but few of us buy a used iPhone that is 2 years old even though in many cases it would do the trick as well and it would save you a fair bit since it is much cheaper to buy and you could get any post-paid or pre-paid plan you want since no carrier can ask you to sign up for a 2-year contract on some expensive plan.

I have ordered from the Apple Store in the past while I had a Verizon postpaid plan and received my new iPhone with a Verizon SIM card already installed. However, I switched to a Verizon prepaid plan in late February and when I tried ordering my SE 2020 last Saturday using the Apple Store app, I received an error message when I attempted to complete the order when the app went to Verizon to verify my account info. I was unable to complete the Apple Store order unless I selected no carrier as my choice which included no SIM card. I'll simply move my Verizon SIM card from my iPhone 8 to my SE 2020 after I get it set up and ready to make calls.

I have been doing woodworking for 20 years and I absolutely agree that a Click Rule or talking tape measure are absolutely essential if you want to do stuff with any degree of accuracy. There is also the Rotomatic (not sure if I spell this correctly), it is somewhat the same concept as a Click Rule, but I believe instead of pulling out a threaded rod which then makes a click every sixteenth of an inch the Rotomatic works by the user turning a stop along a threaded rod and it can give you accuracy down to a 1/64 of an inch whereas the imperial click rule is accurate to 1/16 of an inch and the metric click rule is accurate to 1mm which is better than a sixteenth, but not quite as good a 1/32. Having said this, 1/16 is adequate in a lot of situations and 1mm is of course even better. The Cobalt talking tape measure if set to imperial is also accurate to 1/16 and if set to metric it is 1mm. I like the fact that you can include the length of the housing in your measurement if, for example, you want to measure the inside of a cabinet or drawer, you can also measure something and push a button to add that measurement to memory, then measure the next item and add it and so on and in the end push a button to get a total. This can be handy if you do things like baseboard trim, they usually come in 16 foot length so I could go and measure several walls and add up each measurement until I get close to 16 feet and this way I can minimize waste. The Cobalt can also be set to read out in inches, feet and inches, e.g. 25 inches or 2 feet 1 inches, on the metric side you can do metres, centimetres or millimeters, e.g. 1 metre and 10 centimetres can also be read as 110 centimetres or 1,010 millimetres. I assume that Tape King can maybe do the same, but I don’t know. Max, could you contact me off-list as I’d love to learn more about Tape King. I have both a couple of Cobalt tape measures, I have I think 4 imperial click rules and 1 metric because when I am really working on a larger project I often will use 2 or 3 at the same time, e.g. if I want to measure how far away from the edge of a sheet of plywood the rail of my track saw is especially if I am cutting along the 8 foot length of the plywood, it is much better to have a click rule on each end than to run around with a single one. There is absolutely no way an app is going to be accurate enough for any sort of good woodworking and I highly doubt you would see a single professional and sighted woodworker use an app like the Measure app over a tape measure even though they could probably use it with much better precision in terms of lining up start and end point. The fact is that if you want to do any sort of woodworking it will be an expensive hobby. Lastly, don’t forget the usefulness of setup blocks/bars like these: 15 piece setup bar set This 15-piece set is one of the most complete and best I have found, I also have a couple of smaller 5 or 6 piece ones which you can get in metric or imperial and if I know I want to rip a 2 inch strip off something on my table saw or I want to set the height on my router bit to half an inch than using the appropriate setup bar is way easier than trying to set the table saw fence with the click rule.

Re: The S E 2020?
Hi, I went from a 6 Plus to the 2020. I quickly got used to smaller form factor and the performance has been good. Just get a good case for it. With the glass back, it's a slippery little devil. The lack of a separate earbud jack is annoying but not a deal-breaker. touch ID has been very reliable and I got uded to the new home button without difficulty. I've been happy with the decision to upgrade. HTH, Dan The nice thing about science is that it's true whether you believe in it or not. -- From: "Andrew J.

I now am using the 6 S with 128 gig. I am told that the S E 2020 also has a glass back as the 6 s is metal. Does anyone have any comments on this? Would I be good to upgrade to the s e 2020? I did notice that when I installed the Audible.com app that to purchase books from the app, I would need IOS 13 or higher. According to my settings, I am up to date with IOS 12plus.

Re: Recommendations for Real Estate Apps
I haven't had to deal with those parameters so didn't notice that accessibility had been broken. A bit of a work-around is to go into 'property type' and deselect any you're not interested in and go to 'Number of bedrooms and bathrooms' and reset to zero. Select the price range as usual. Not ideal but it makes the results more managable. I've sent feedback to the developer about the issues.
