Hi all,  So I'm wondering if any one else is having problems with voice over 
and focus and messenger? I have an iPhone 14 pro with the latest update and I 
can receive messengers and send them but when I try replying again to someone 
voice over reads everything and it's doable but hard to get to where I can send 
another messenger.  I hope this makes sense, ask any questions.  Thanks for any

Re: An Alexa Compatible Thermostat, Anyone?

2022-12-26 Thread Lelia Struve
Hi all, a question about the Alexa enabled thermostats.   Do they all have a 
way not to be used with either Alexa or the internet?   Or for example, does 
the amazon one have a Braille overlay like the microwave does?  Thanks

Hello everyone, first of all, I want to say I have gotten so many good answers 
and great help from this list. I know I don’t participate, but I just want to 
say thanks for that. Secondly, can I use a regular charger with my iPhone 14

Getting an iPhone

2022-10-23 Thread Lelia Struve
Hi all, so I am with Verizon, and we are trying to get new iPhones. I did not 
know that it was such a pain in the tail to get an iPhone. Two years ago when I 
got the iPhone, I had  no problem, all I had to say, was I want an iPhone? They 
asked what I want it and I got it. Now, You have to go through hoops to get it. 
And from what it looks like the hoops are not that accessible. If anyone has 
Verizon as their phone carrier have they had problems? And if you have, what 
did you do?   For example, apparently, there is a billing quote that you have 
to agree to. And I tried to do that, but it looks like I might have to register 
and get an online Verizon account or something. I don’t know.

CAUTION: External Sender

 

I have to replace my hvac downstairs. I need an accessible thermostat. HVAC company recommends the Ecobee. Says they have had less issues with this brand over NEST.
So I see Amazon has the 2022 version on their site.
For the Ecobee owners, Can you adjust if the wifi goes down?

Also, is there an auto setting for heat/cool so once the temp reaches a certain degree heat or air will automatically come on? Can you turn off the system if you want to open windows?

Re: Spacial audio support on clubhouse

2021-08-31 Thread Lelia Struve
Hi, I'm not sure it works on all iPhones. I have an SE and as of two days ago, 
it didn't work on mine.   I had a theory that the spatial audio only worked on 
iPhones 11 and above but I'm not sure.

A few questions about earphones or headphones for iPhones

2021-08-12 Thread Lelia Struve
Hi all, first let me ask what are the things called that goes between your 
earphones and the iPhone? Can I get that thing on amazon? I hope that made 
sense.  Also, I know someone who has a pair of airpods and the volume on the 
left ear for some odd reason went way low.  We've tried unpairing and pairing 
them again but it didn't work.   So any suggestions would be appreciated.  
Also, if anyone could let me know what to buy instead of airpods.  Thanks.

Re: Identifying barcodes

2021-01-19 Thread Lelia Struve
The differents between seeing a i and supersense is that seeing a i gives 
cooking directions and so far I've not seen any cooking directions with 
supersense.

Re: Supersense first impressions.

2020-12-23 Thread Lelia Struve
Hi everyone, I hope you all have a merry Christmas. So I used this app to read 
some mail. I also used the Seeing a i app.  Now when I say I read mail, I 
usually just read the envelopes. The seeing a I app is the one I got better 
results from. I am going to try reading barcodes with both apps as well. I will 
let you all know what I find out.  I did actually open one piece of mail and 
again reading the document I got better results with the seeing a i  app.  I 
know that the developers for these apps are on the email list so I want to let 
you guys know that I am not at all, saying anything bad about any app. I am 
just giving my opinion on my comparisons. I hope you don’t take what I am 
saying in a bad way.

Thank you so much for developing these apps.

Activating new iPhones

Hey everyone, I hope you’re all well. So I have a friend who is getting an 
iPhone 11, my husband and I are getting the new iPhone see2.  No we haven’t 
activated our iPhones on our own in a long time. We’ve usually had the store do 
it. So here’s my question, when you get the iPhones, can you first set up the 
iPhone with voiceover and stuff like that? Then, would you hit a star 611?  
Hopefully that all made sense and thanks for any help I can get.

RE: Seeing AI App Question Please.

2019-05-30 Thread Lelia
 Hi, Janet, its not your phone, it's the app.  I've had nothing but problems
with the bar code part of the app for quite a while now.  All of the other
parts of the app work except for the bar code part.  So its not only you.

Subject: Seeing AI App Question Please.

Hi All, 
I used to be able to use the Seeing AI app until I got my new XR phone, but
now, for some unknown reason the app doesn't work 99.9 percent of the time.
When I open the app and hold it over a can of soup or a box, etc, sometimes
it will beep for a few seconds, and sometimes it just doesn't do anything,
very seldom it will try to mumble a few words that I can't understand, and
the phone also gets quite warm.  I've just called Microsoft support through
the Be My Eyes app, and they told me they can't do any trouble shooting over
the phone.  Although, they did read my can of soup to me, but I guess that
might be all they can do, not sure! LOL!  All MS could tell me was to take
it to an Apple store, and let them see how it is acting because they think
something must be wrong with the hardware, or I might have some kind of
virus or a worm, and Apple needs to see this.  MS also said the Seeing AI
app is pretty strait forward, so I shouldn't be having this problem.  So my
question is can anyone tell me what settings to check to see if I have the
app set up correctly? 
I've uninstalled the app two times, and reinstalled it.  I've picked the
voice I want to use for the app.  I've checked the language, I've allowed
the app to use my camera.  When I double tap on which reading option I want
to use meaning either to read a product, short text, document, etc,
sometimes, voiceover just completely stops talking, but I can still hear
some tapping sounds, so I know the phone or the app is doing something, but
I have to close the Seeing AI app through the app switcher, to get voiceover
to talk again, and go back into the app.  Sometimes the screen jumps to the
app switcher, or just closes the entire app.  
I've reset my phone up as a new phone two times since I've had it, I've
reset my network settings as well, so any opinions will be greatly
appreciated!  
Thank you all.  
Janet 

Peace Be With You.

Re: my fitnesspal set up

2019-05-22 Thread Lelia Struve
Hi Anthony, here is the deal with my fitness pal. Sometimes when it says there 
is an edit box, you double tap that, and it ends up to be a picker button. For 
example, it will ask for your date of birth, or your birthday or whatever. I 
believe it is an edit box, you double tap that, and it ends up to be a picker 
button. That might help. Also, unfortunately, another thing that I have noticed 
is this, it is starting to jump around a lot. It didn’t used to do that. I am 
almost thinking of deleting this app because of that.

Re: apple watch series 4

Whatever you do, if it is updating, don’t remove it from the charger. It won’t 
talk to you for a long time. Mine did the same thing it’s OK. I hope you 
haven’t done anything like removed it from the charger. What of  the things

Re: apple watch

2019-05-21 Thread Lelia Struve
Hi Janet, as you said, you don’t know what kind you got. So I will tell you 
about mine that I got Sunday.  One of the things that confused me at first was 
that when I took it out of the box, it was in a cloth and I didn’t know that 
you had to slide it out.

It is exactly like an iPhone in that all you have to do is hit what is called 
the crown, or basically the button at the front of the watch three times. 
Basically, triple tap it. And voiceover should come on.

If you got the cellular version of the watch I don’t know what you would have 
to do to pair it if it’s the same as mine. If you didn’t, you can either pair 
it to your iPhone manually, or do it by pointing the camera at your phone. I 
will leave you with that because I don’t want to give you too much information 
and overwhelm you.

Re: Are you still using Be My Eyes?

I am not going to say I am not going to use be my eyes. But lately I have had 
so many problems just getting an answer. It kind of reminds me of the first 
time I got the app, then I deleted it for a while and got it back and it was 
better. Now it’s back to what it was for me. It doesn’t matter what time I

Good morning Mary, basically whatever I have  my headphones or earbuds plugged 
in is when I have the issues. And it does both, it activates Siri as well as 
plays music.

Problems with my Iphone

2019-03-25 Thread Lelia Struve
Hello everyone, so  my husband and I are both having issues and the same issue. 
We both have iPhone 7 with the latest update and here are the problems. When 
ever we move, it seems like either Siri or music is interrupting whatever we 
are doing at the time. We think it is our lightning ports, if that is the case 
is there anything we can do? Also has anyone else had this issue and what did 
you do? Thank you in advance. This is really frustrating.

Hello Richard, so here is what I did and if I did something incorrect maybe you 
could let me know.  I clicked on the link and got the voice dream beta, that 
worked perfectly. Then I went into Voice Dream and clicked on add and clicked 
to turn on the scanner, it sent me to the App Store, and when I tried to 
download that Scanner app, it said it wasn’t available in my country. Do you 
know if this is not available in the US? Thanks

Re: Problem accessing book share account with voice dream reader

2019-02-12 Thread Lelia Struve
That is interesting, I have seen several emails saying that others have had the 
same problem, so I just went and tried and I have no problem. I searched for 
Wilder like Laura Ingalls Wilder and I found it. I hope all of your problem 
gets resolved

This should be fun. Here we go, and this is in no particular order. Number one 
dice world, Number two a lot of the blindfold games. Number three the Amazon 
app, number four prime video, number five prime now. Number six voice dream, 
number seven seeing a i. Number eight audible, number nine Bard mobile. Number 
10 YouTube. That was actually kind of hard, because I know that some of you 
were going to mention some apps that I know could be a favorite of mine. Again

Re: Auto Scroll with braille display

Braille displays

2018-10-19 Thread Lelia Struve
Well, this is a very sad day. My braille display said goodbye to me. I shocked 
it and I shocked it goodbye. So there is a few things that I am wondering, do  
any braille displays automatically pan to the next page or line or do you have 
to manually do that with all of them? Another thing I’m wondering is if anyone 
has used many braille displays which do you think is the best for you?  I do 
realize that what is best for one is it best for all. I am just wondering.

RE: Placed order with Safeway: wasn’t easy

2018-04-24 Thread Lelia
Hi there, well, the safeway app doesn't work for me at all. Like you, I can do 
everything until I get to the check out.  I even tried turning voice over off 
and it still doesn't work.  Sad because I liked that app when I was able to use 
it.

Subject: Placed order with Safeway: wasn’t easy

Not like it used to be. Thankfully, you could read all the items in your cart, 
which had been a problem before when I could read the first few items, but then 
it’s skipped to the end of what I had, and so had to scroll backwards a few 
lines at a time to get a semblance of what else was there. However, when in 
promotional items, and if you went to a particular one, and added one to your 
cart, it could take a little doing since you can’t scroll through many items at 
a time, to find where you left off in the list.

The fun really began at checkout time: as was my previous problem, I could 
select the date, but not the order time, which proved to be the case when I 
went to the website. I then tried turning voiceover off, and double tapping 
time I wanted. It worked. I wish they would just have links for the times the 
way they used to; I’m not really sure what the enabled and disabled arrows are 
supposed to do.  For my substitutions, when I wasn’t sure when I hit no 
substitutions that it was actually selected, since there was no feedback, I 
went into the customize area, and selected the third check box for each item, 
and was able to find out later that that third check box was correct, when it 
said “no substitutions, 11 items“. After my date and time were selected, I was 
able to add my promotional codes. Then, for “place order”, on the website, I 
couldn’t get that button to work, even turning voiceover off, trying a number 
of times. When I closed out of Safari and went back into the app, however, the 
place order button worked. I wanted to see if I could change The day and 
delivery time in the app: again, I had to turn voiceover off, hopefully double 
tap on the right place for selecting my time, and turn voiceover back on. I did 
this in the place where it says to edit pending orders, choosing the option 
where it says to edit date and time. This is no way to have to check out; I 
just wanted to do it to see if in any way it was possible to get through the 
order process.

I read the discussion last week about the OverDrive app. I wanted to include, 
just in case no one knows about R digital. And additional library app.

RBdigital by Recorded Books, LLC 
https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/rbdigital/id515311743?mt=8

 

Accessibility could use some improving, however I did successfully search for a 
title and download an audiobook. That was pretty effortless.

Enjoy,

Traci

 

PS. I do not have the link offhand, but there is also hoopla. Yet another 
library app.
