Re: Talking Goggles with i-pad mini,
Hello. I have put all my apps from my iPhone on my iPad Mini. Some apps perform a little quirky, while others perform okay. I do have Goggles on my iPad, but I have not used it yet. To get your iPhone apps on your iPad Mini, do the following steps: First, open up your App Store. Next, click on the purchased tab. It is tab 4 of 5, located on the bottom right-hand corner of your iPad Mini. In the top left-hand corner of your iPad, right underneath the status bar, you should find an iPad Apps button. Double click on that. A pop up window should appear. VoiceOver will say, "selected, iPad Apps". Touch the pop up with one finger to put focus on the pop up window. VoiceOver will say, "dismiss pop up…". At that point, swipe ones to the right with one finger, voiceOver will say, "selected, iPad Apps". Swipe again to the right and you should hear, "iPhone Apps". Double tap on that. Now all your iPhone apps should be visible. Put your finger back in the top left-hand corner underneath the status bar and you should hear, "iPhone Apps button". You can swipe to the right to pick your search criteria and download the apps you want to install on your iPad. Good luck. Regards, Gadget Girl Sent from my Apple gadget.

Re: Relaxation App for Help Getting to Sleep
Hello Ren. They have a track named "Zen Wind & Water", found in their Abstract category. Why don't you take a listen to it. For me, I think the wind is too loud and overpowers the wind chimes, but the wind does die down so you can hear the chimes more clearly. I have written to the developer to ask them if they could do one without the wind. Maybe if more people request this, they would be more inclined to do so. Have a good day.

Re: Relaxation App for Help Getting to Sleep
Hello there. I did not find that feature either. Looks like they may have discontinued the earbud optimization, or perhaps it's built in?

Re: Relaxation App for Help Getting to Sleep
Hello Anna. The App does not automatically put your tracks in alphabetical order, you have to do it, as the tracks appear in your list in the order they are downloaded. To sort by category, I made folders and put my desired tracks in them. It's very simple. To put your tracks in an order that works for you, do the following: Find the "Display folder editing controls" button at the bottom of the screen, and select it. Once in that menu, from left to right, you will find to the extreme left, "Folders, back button". Next, you will have the "Installed Tracks" heading. Then the "Edit folder" button, which will appear dimmed. Next, you will find the "Reorder" button; and after that, your list of installed tracks. Select the "Reorder" button. Now you are in the reordering mode. If you swipe to the right through your track titles, you will notice there are three choices for each track. 1. Delete, to delete the track. 2. The name of the track, to play the track; and 3. Reorder, to reorder your titles in an order which is acceptable to you. Select the "reorder" button. That button is draggable. Double-tap and hold,wait for the sound, then drag to rearrange. You can do this for any track. When dragging, VoiceOver will tell you "moved above name of title", or "moved below name of title". When done rearranging your titles, simply select the "End Reordering" button, found at the top right corner of the screen, and you're done. To make folders, select the "Folders" back button, found in the top left of the screen. Once in that menu, you should find the "New Folder" button, located to the top left of the screen. Selecting the "New folder" button will put you in a new folder screen. Swiping to the right, you will find the "Cancel" button in the top left corner. Next, the "New Folder" heading. Then, the "Save" button; Title Heading, and lastly, the :Untitled folder" VoiceOver will say, "Text field, double-tap to edit". Single-finger double tap that and you will be placed in an editing box. Type the name of your desired folder. Next, swipe to the right through your list of titles, and single-finger double-tap on the titles you want to appear in the folder you've just created. VoiceOver will repeat the name of the title and indicate that track is selected. When done, select the "Save" button, found at the top right corner of the screen. You will be able to reorder your titles in each folder you create by finding the "Reorder" button, and following the previous steps. Keep in mind, though, your folders you create will not be visible in your track list when you open the app. You will have to go to the "Display folder editing controls, and select the "Folders" back button to make your folders visible.

Re: Relaxation App For Help Getting To Sleep?
Hello. When you first open the app, and swipe to the right, you will hear VoiceOver say "button" several times. I think about four times. After that, you will hear VoiceOver say, more sounds, which is the text for button one. Music player, which is the text for button too. Brain waves, which is the text for button three. Add free, which is the text for button for. You can use a three finger swipe to the left to read the additional information on the following three pages. There is a total of four pages. After that, you can do a one finger swipe to the left to get to the top left corner of the page. There you will find a close button. Do a one finger tap on the close button, and it will take you to a screen where you can hear the titles of the sounds you can select. You can do a one finger swipe to the right to go through the sounds. A one finger double tap on a title selects it for your list. Keep in mind, you can only select 12 sounds for your list. When you get to the bottom of the page, and hear a stop sound, you can go back up to the top of the page, touch one of the titles to put VoiceOver Focus there. Then you can do a three finger swipe to the left to go to the next page. There are a total of eight pages of sounds. Swipes to the left increases page numbers; swipes to the right decreases page numbers. Single double tapping a title toggles your selection on and off. When a title is selected for your list, you will hear the word selected before it reads your title. You can select and change your list as many times as you want, by toggling the select on and off. I went through each sound by toggling the "select" switch so I could hear what I wanted to put into my list. The rest of the buttons and functions are self-explanatory. I went through the app, and played with everything. When you have a sound selected, you can go to the bottom of the page, and adjust the volume for that particular sound. You can do this for each sound in your list of 12 items. The "button play button" toggles your play on and off. Just explore the app and have fun. Hope this helps.

Re: Time Warner Home Security
Hello. We have had Time Warner Security for many years. We had it installed when I was sighted. Now that I am blind, I don't find it very useful for a blind person. Four instance, the only thing I can do is arm it and dis-arm it, because I know the code. If we need to bypass a zone, I have to get a sighted family member to do it for me. The keypad is useless, because it does not talk. I have had many discussions with Time Warner, and they know my frustration, but they do not have many options for blind people. Their app is quirky, and I need to get a family member who can see to help me navigate it, so I don't use it. I know for a fact, there are some security systems out there which speak and let you know what zones are open, i.e., a window, a door, etc. now that there is talk that Charter Cable is supposed to be buying Time Warner Cable for 55 billion dollars, we will wait and see if they will incorporate any enhancements for their blind customers. The cable box is useless to a blind person, as well as the security system. If they don't come up with a blind friendly solution, we will jump ship and go to a Nother company which offers ease-of-use of their products by visually impaired persons. Ironically, they send my bill in braille each month, yet, they don't offer any Braille remotes, nor a cable box which can tell me what channel I am viewing. Hope this helps.

Re: Question about setting up an Outlook account
Yes, Google did change it. You now have to allow less secure apps for gmail. You have to go into your Google account and allow ”less secure apps”. So, open a new Google browser. Log into your email account you want to add to Outlook. When you get there, type the following string: https://www.google.com/settings/security/lesssecureapps and press enter. When you get to the new screen, turn the ”allow less secure apps” feature on. Once you see the updated screen, you are good to go so log out.

Re: Pilates or yoga apps?
Hello there! You may want to take a look at the BlindAlive.com website. They have Pilates Level 1 and Level 2 workouts. The woman who started this movement, is blind, so all exercises or fully accessable. You can buy workouts via download and/or physical CDs. Exercises or explain in full detail right on the website. You can listen to the exercises, and practice them before your workout arrives. I was so excited, I ordered every physical CD, which is cheaper than getting a gym membership and or signing up with one of the local groups around here for exercise. I encourage any blind person who is looking to get healthy or stay fit, to check out that website. Hope this helps.

Sorry, OT: PenFriend original for Sale
Hello Listers. I have an original PenFriend for sale. It has never been used and remains in "brand new" condition. I am asking $99 or best offer. If interested, please contact me off list. What you will get: 1 PenFriend labeling pen. 1 Unopened pack of 127 mixed-size labels (small round, large round, large square). 1 Neck lanyard. 2 Tripple-A batteries (already installed in the pen). 1 Plastic box (to store additional label packs and to keep all your PenFriend items together). 1 Printed instructions. What is PenFriend? The PenFriend is an audio labeling system for individuals who are blind or have low vision. The system consists of a digital pen and labels which contain barcodes that the pen can read. The pen has internal memory built into it along with a microphone and speaker system. This allows an individual to place a label, scan it with the pen, and tthen make an audio recording of what that particular label represents. This PenFriend comes with 1 Gigabyte of memory which equates to 70 hours of recording time. A Mini-USB to USB cord can be purchased separately if you would like to back up your pen to a computer, but a computer is not required. The PenFriend is a stand-alone unit. The recordings can be as long or as short as is necessary to describe the object. The updated PenFriend 2 sells between $150 and $199, depending upon where you purchase it. For anyone who has been contemplating getting a PenFriend but the price was too steep, here's your chance to get an original PenFriend at a reasonable price. The PenFriend has been sitting in a closet on a shelf in a smoke-free environment. Item is for sale because I use another device to accomplish the above-referenced tasks. If you are interested, please feel free to contact me off list. Thank you.

Re: Sorry, OT: PenFriend original for Sale
Hello Jewel. Sorry about the email. You can write to gadgetgirlke...@gmail.com. Yes, the labels are reusable. You can record on each label over and over again. Once you re-record onto a label with a previous recording, The old recording is erased and replaced with the new recording. Please keep in mind that these are adhesive labels, so if you plan to remove them, I would adhere them to a small card and punch a hole in the corner of the card to insert a rubber band. I would not attempt to peel up the label, as it probably would not stick well anymore. There are additional labels and magnetic packs which are sold separately through many vendors. There are also laundry labels as well, which are sold separately. If you have anymore questions, please feel free to write. Have a great day.

Re: Severe weather alerts
Hello. You might want to check out the free app, tornado, by American Red Cross. It has given me numerous alerts over the years. The app is accurate. Each time the siren went off, there was a tornado in my area. The siren is loud, followed by a voice saying, "Tornado Warning ...". This process repeats until the tornado alert is cancelled by the National Weather Service.

Howdy. You may also want to try the App, Jazz Radio. The App I've been using for years has always been VoiceOver friendly and the App is free! However, you can purchase a yearly subscription, and you can check their website out. They have about 30 stations of various jazz and are always adding. At holiday time, they add holiday jazz stations. Here is the link to take a look: Jazz Radio! by AudioAddict Inc https://appsto.re/us/3r3gx.i.

Re: Trulia and voiceover
Hi. I have the app and I found a "button" on the top right of my screen, so I clicked on it. The app opened up to another screen. You have to explore your screen with your finger. Swiping will not get you past the intro screen. The button to click on in the top right is not labeled. It just says, "button". But I was able to use the app with VoiceOver with no problem.

Re: Accessible home automation systems
Hi. We are contemplating a home automation system as well and were advised to take a look at Savant and Control 4. They both have Apps in the App Store, but you need the system and an account to use the App. Therefore, I don't know how VoiceOver friendly they are, despite the contractor telling us they are. Just wanted to throw some other names out there. For more information, the contractor suggested we call a Best Buy Magnolia Design Center, as they sell both of these systems and should be knowledgeable. Good luck in your search.

Re: Trouble with pop up buttons and the picker.
Yeah, I have noticed this too. I found the picker fields by placing my finger on the lower right hand corner of the phone. Or, perhaps it's in the lower middle of the phone screen, just above the home button. Next time, place your finger on the bottom part of the screen after you select the picker, you should be able to swipe to your selection after making that area become active.

Re: Help with downcast
Hello. When I first got the Downcast App back in 2012, I listened to a podcast I found on the iBlindTech.com website. Although the podcast was done in 2012, and the app has had updates since then, I thought the podcast would still be helpful, as it will familiarize you with the App. I have pasted the link below. Hope this helps. http://static1.1.sqspcdn.com/static/f/1421819/20491143/1349175871380/iBt-024-DowncastApp.mp3?token=IoluKr2o8ueGyp4QPK2d9Z0piAo%3D Regards, Gadget Girl Sent from my Apple gadget and dictated using Siri. > On May 14, 2017, at 8:55 AM, Judy Pryor wrote: > > I downloaded Downcast yesterday and am feeling very stupid as I cannot get > the podcast I downloaded to play.

Re: Stylus for handwriting?
Hello Harry. I got some number 2 pencil styluses from Griffin Technologies for $8.49, some time ago. I did a search on their website and unfortunately, they are sold out. You can use any stylus with a capacitor tip to mimic your fingertip. I did an experiment and one pencil mimics 1 fingertip; Two pencils mimic 2 fingertips; Three pencils mimic 3 fingertips. I only have 3 pencil styluses, so I don’t know about the 4-finger gestures, but I am assuming a fourth stylus would work as a fourth finger. When I put a rubber band around the three pencil styluses, I was able to do a 3-finger swipe with them. Also a 2-finger swipe with them. I can also do tap gestures with them as well. In conclusion, I would suggest you do a search for styluses with capacitor tips and you should be good. Hope this helps.

Re: any good lightning head set recommendation
Hi. I have the Belkin Rockstar splitter, which can be found at the Apple store and Best Buy for $39.99. I use it with my iPhone 7 Plus. It has a lightning end on a cord which protrudes a few inches from a flattened rectangle. In the flattened rectangle, there are 2 lightening ports to plug in your Lightning to USB cord on one side and your Lightning to 3.5 mm headphone/earphone adapter on the other side. Each side takes either cord so you do not need to worry about which port takes which cord. I find my wired earphones/headphones work very well with no features being hindered. The lightning to 3.5 mm headphone/earphone adapter can also be found at Best Buy or your phone carrier for $9.99. This is the same headphone /earphone adapter that came with my iPhone 7 Plus. I picked up a couple to leave on the end of my headphones/earphones and I keep another plugged into the splitter along with my lightning to USB cord. When I travel and need to use my earphones for privacy, they are always ready to go with the earphone adapter already plugged in. Hope this helps.

Here is the link to the podcast: Listening to iBlindTech - Accessible Workflows with Apple’s Mac, iPhone, iPad and Watch (Getting Your Ears on the AirPods, a Voice Over User's Perspective - AP003 iBT078) In this episode, I take a look at Apple's new AirPods, their features and usability with Voice Over.

Re: How do you cloase all the pages in Safari
To close your open tabs in Safari, go to the Pages tab in the lower right-hand corner. Do a single finger double tap to open the tab. Once opened, swipe up on an opened page with one finger. VoiceOver Will say, "close Tab". Do a single finger double tap to close the tab. Keep double tapping on tabs after that to close the remaining tabs.

Re: I O S 14.2 and Night Sky
Hi Guys! I got rid of those pesky scene descriptions on my 10 S Max by adding 'Describe Images' to my Rotor. Then, whatever App I am in, I turn the Rotor to Describe Image and flick up with one finger until I hear the word 'off'. For example, when turning it off in Mail, VoiceOver will say, 'Describe images off for Mail'; In Phone, Describe Image off for Phone, etc. Flicking again will turn it back on, so be sure to turn the Rotor to something else like characters, words, etc., to avoid this.

Re: Lightning alert for the WDT weather radio app
Hi there. I renew my subscription every year without issue. renewal has been $4.99 per year. Registration is optional; but in order to restore your purchase, you will need to be registered. When you first open the App and flicking to the right, you will hear a list of your saved Locations you have designated to be monitored; Then Maps. If you continue swiping to the right, VoiceOver jumps back to the top, does not take you to the bottom, and continues to go back to the top and read down the list again. So, place your finger in the lower left corner (about a half inch from the Bottom). You should now be on the ToolBar. Now, when swiping to the right, You should hear: Purchase Lightning, Add Location, Share, Settings, and Play Audio. selecting Purchase Lightning will take you to the Option you are looking for. My subscription is still active until next year so my screen displays, 'Lightning Alert Switch Button On' and my subscription's Expiry Date. If the subscription has expired, it generally would show options to purchase Lightning Alerts for $4.99. I believe the Restore option is to move an active Subscription to a new Device. Once purchased, be sure to go to Settings to turn on your preferences for the App, such as Lightning & National Weather Service (NWS) Alerts. Note, the 'Back Button' is at the top left corner.

Re: Question of the Week: What is your Favorite Apple product and Why?
Hi All, Happy Holidays to You! My Favorite Apples are My Blue iPhone 13 Pro Max and Magic Keyboard. The Phone is quite large but, it's large enough to accommodate My over 15GB Music Collection, Photos, Apps, Videos, and Devices that use Companion Apps, such as My WeWALK Smart Cane, and more without depleting the phone's Battery. Feels great in the Hand. Nice, sleek Design with rounded corners, sort of like the Candy Bar style. Reminds Me of an iPhone 4 Plus on Steroids. LOL. Some Cons are, some People feel the Phone is Too Large, a bit Weighty, and does not Fit in A Pocket well. I did experience some strain between my Pointing Finger and Thumb from holding the Phone too long when I first got it, but that only lasted about 1 Week. I like to keep my Phones in fully Protected Covers/Cases, and all I have been able to find are just the 'Phone Back' kind of Cases which are basically Plastic, Acrylic, and Leather to go on the Phone; And since I prefer Wallet-Style Cases/Covers for full protection, I am still on the Hunt. The Phone only comes with the Charging Cable which uses the new Port and requires the new Brick for Rapid Charging. The Phone does not come with the Brick, so that's an additional $20 USD added to Your Tab. No Earphones included. Pros are, the Phone can still use the standard Lightening to USB Charging Cable and Standard Brick, most of Us already Own, for standard charging. Phone is MagSafe ready. A Phone with a Dead/Almost Dead Battery can charge quickly within Minutes instead of Hours to get You up and running with the included Charging Cable and (purchased separately) wall Brick. Note: Since I do not have an updated MacBook Pro, I do not know if the new oval-type Port is included on those Models, but please let me Know. Phone comes with Apple Stickers if You're a Collector. There are plenty varieties of Phone Backing Cases/Covers and Glass Screen Protectors, If that's what You prefer. A Store told Me, try looking online for Full protection types. A Payment Plan (through AT&T) will last You about 3 Years, if that's what You choose. All and all, love it so far. Hope this helps those of You on the Fence.

Re: Question about the CVS Pharmacy App and Spoken RX
Hi there. If you have not already taken a look at the FREE ScripTalk program, You owe it to yourself to check it out. The FREE ScripTalk App and FREE Talking Prescription Label Program is through En-Vision America who discontinued the ID Mate Talking Barcode Scanner line to focus on their ScripTalk Products. I (and others) found the CVS Talking RX App very cluttered and confusing. I took a look at it sometime ago, but decided to stay with ScripTalk who has been around longer than the CVS App/Talking RX Program. Additionally, the ScripTalk App is non-cluttered and easy to use. Moreover, I also have the FREE Loaner ScripTalk Station Device, which is also Portable and suitable for Travel, should someone wish not to use the ScripTalk Smartphone App, such as some Seniors, etc. Although I have become an Advocate for Emphasizing Accessible Prescription Solutions for Individuals who may have Low-Vision, Print Impairments, Blindness, and other Disabilities at the Pharmacy Counter, I truly believe in the ScripTalk Program and have been using it for Years now. In fact, I got my Pharmacy signed up, and other People in the Community use the Program too. I have heard many complaints about the Talking RX with similar complaints I had. I recently did a feature of En-Vision America's ScripTalk Program on my new YouTube Channel, Sightless Living. If anyone would like to hear about the FREE ScripTalk Program and FREE App, you can See/Hear it here: How Do Blind People Take Medication Safely, Independently, and With Surety? https://youtu.be/OY9AC1A3bYU Best regards, Anita 🧑🏽🦯 > On Dec 22, 2021, at 9:05 PM, Robin Frost wrote: > > > Hi, > > Oh dear utilities?

Hi Rich, I was having the same problem when I went from a 7 plus to a 10 S max.

Re: Ergonomic Bluetooth keyboards
Hi there! I have an 'old school', Brand New, still in the manufacturer's box, full-size ergonomic keyboard by Microsoft. I purchased it in the Win 32 USB, Windows XP/Mac era. Keyboard has never been used. Only recently opened to examine contents inside the box since never opened after purchase. Just never got to it. Box in excellent, Like-New condition. Still wrapped in box as Microsoft left it. Getting Started booklet and software included. No missing parts. From clean, dry climate-controlled storage. Non-Smoking/Pet-Free environment. Unsure if Keyboard speaks or can work with VoiceOver since a Copyright on the box reads, 2005 Microsoft Corp. Also unsure if Keyboard offers Bluetooth, as Keyboard uses a wire to plug in, but at least, that could be another option for your Client. Now cleaning out Office closet which has Brand New & Lightly Enjoyed 'Blasts from the Past'! This is the Microsoft Natural Ergonomic Keyboard 4000 with Advanced Ergonomic Desighn.

Re: Lightning alert
Hi. I listened to a podcast that was reviewed on AppleVis years ago and got the app, Weather Radio. It has a paid Lightening Alert which was (and still is) $4.99 USD. You renew it every year. Although sometimes I miss the date, it still gives me alerts. It gives lightening at approx. 4 miles out and is very accurate in my case. i've been using it a very long time… Years; and have never been struct!

Re: portable bluetooth keyboard
Good day Denise. Several years ago I got an AppsKey Pro by Hippie, which is an Apple folding wireless Bluetooth keyboard. It ran about $60 or $70 because it came with a paid app which was free once you furnished the special code that came with the keyboard. From this app, you could launch shortcuts to websites such as, CNN, EBay, Facebook, iTunes, Flicker, Safari, Amazon, Skype, WSJ, Twitter, Shazam, uTube, Wikipedia, Mall, App Store, etc. The unit came with a protective pouch and has a pull-out stand to rest an iPhone or iPod Touch. Although this keyboard also works with iPad, I believe the pull-out stand would not support it and would topple over, but that's my opinion. I've never rested an iPad on it. The keyboard powers on using 2 double-A batteries and has an on and off switch. When folded, the keyboard measures approx. 6-inches wide by 4-inches deep by 3-quarters inch thick; and when opened, measures 12 & one-half inches wide, giving you full-sized keys to work on with a slim profile. I like this keyboard. I toss it in a handbag, tote bag and it fits in a deep pocket. It's light to carry and feels good to the touch. Sighted friends have told me there is a LED light which glows when unit is on to let you know the switch is in the "on" position. I put a bump dot next to the "on" position and try to remember to slide the switch to the "off" position when done. I don't know if it is still available, but I'm sure there are comparable models out there. Good luck in your quest to find a suitable keyboard. Regards, Anita also known as "Gadget Girl".

Re: Updating Apps
I had this problem a year ago. After about two weeks, I contacted my local Apple store and was told to sync my iPod to my computer. I did this, my computer updated iTunes, and after I ejected the iPod from the computer, I went back to the App Store, clicked "update all", and it worked. The Apple store told me that although the unit can update on its own, it does need to sync from time to time. Regards, Anita also known as "Gadget Girl". Sent via my Apple gadget.

AT&T and the Next program
Hi everyone. Anybody using AT&T's next program, wherein you can get an iPhone 5S by only paying taxes on the phone? I was told gone are the days of buying the phone outright. I was told you can upgrade every 12 months. I was told each time a new iPhone comes out, you can upgrade without penalty. Is anyone using this program? If so, how do you like it? Do you not own your phone? Any feedback you have would be appreciated. Thanks. Regards, Anita also known as "Gadget Girl". Sent via my Apple gadget.

Re: New iPhone 5s.
Hello Sieghard. Thank you for the detailed information on setting up a new 5S. I had followed those same steps when I did my phone, however, my apps appeared scattered all over the phone. None of my folders came over with the apps inside them. Rather than spending hours reorganizing all the apps and putting them back into folders, is there any way to re-sync the iPhone to get back what I had? Regards, Anita also known as "Gadget Girl".

Re: Handwriting
Hi. A two finger swipe to the left will delete in handwriting mode. Pressing delete button will erase characters in regular mode.

Re: Handwriting
Start by making a period by placing one finger on the screen to make a dot. Then do a two finger swipe up or down to toggle to the punctuation mark you want. This toggle method works in other modes as well. For example, if you write the letter U and the letter V appears, you could use the two finger swipe down or up to toggle to the letter of choice.

Re: problem when moving apps around. anyone else had this bug
Hello. I am having that same problem. When I drag some apps over a folder, I hear no sound and the app goes back to where I moved it from. I give up! Good thing this is my iPod and iPad. I don't plan to upgrade the iPhone until a couple of upgrades come out for bug fixes. So far, my latest iPod and iPad which are running IOS 7 have become unstable.

Re: hanging with friends and advertisements that even stay in app store
Hi. I had a problem similar to that yesterday. I got into an app that popped up an advertisement, and I could not get out, and there was no dismiss button. I close the App Store and when I came back into the App Store, the advertisement was still fullscreen! So, I went into the app switcher and close the app. When I went back into the App Store, it was like I was never there. All new and ready to start again. I noticed, if you close your apps that are running after using them, you rarely run into issues which we read about on this list. As a rule, I try to remember to close all running apps at night before I go to bed. How I close my apps are, Double-click the home button. Voice over will say, app switcher. Then I swipe to the right with one finger. Voiceover will give me the name of the app and tell me it's running and then tell me to swipe up with three fingers to close the app. I again, swipe up with one finger, and voiceover says, close and the name of the app that is running. I then double tap with one finger to close that app. Then, if any other apps are open, the next one will appear and voiceover will say, running. I again double tap using one finger. I continue this procedure and till I hear the word home, meaning I have closed all running apps. I double tap on the home button, and Voila, I am back at the home screen. .

Re: handwriting to unlock your phone
Yes, there is a way to unlock your phone using the hand writing. There is a short podcast on the how to be blind website showing you how to do that. Just go to, how to be blind.com, and look for the to the point podcast. Then click on episode one, which is handwriting. Regards, Anita also known as "Gadget Girl". Sent via my Apple gadget.

Re: downloading or, catching podcasts
Hi. I use the downcast pod catcher app, which is also very accessible. I would suggest navigating to the Applevis website, Search for the pod catcher app you have, listen to the podcast so you know how to use it, and proceed from there. The podcasts usually play directly from the website, if you do not have a pod catcher app already installed. That's how I originally got started. Good luck.

Re: What does the emergency services tone for the government alert sound like?
Hello. I have the free tornado app from the American Red Cross. When we had a tornado a month ago, my phone was sitting on its charger with all apps closed. The thunder was rumbling outside. I could hear it started to rain. All of a sudden a loud siren sounded followed by a voice saying, "tornado warning". It repeated itself a couple of times before going silent. About 5 minutes later, the process started again with the siren and voice warning. This continued until the National Weather Service cancelled the alert, at which time I received an alert that the NWS cancelled said alert. This is a very good free app. It was later confirmed that we had an actual tornado. I have not yet experienced a government alert. Regards, Gadget Girl Sent from my Apple gadget.
