RE: Apps and Widgets

[Mario Eiland]

HI Jim,

If I remember correctly widgets were an option we could have on or turned off 
when we first set up our iPhones. If that’s something you want back such as the 
weather widget, then try the following.

Double tap twice and hold on the second tap and you will hear couple of tones 
and VoiceOver will announce “start Editing.” Scroll to the top and you will 
find an option to add a widget. Double tap on that and you will see a list of 
widgets you can add and one of those is the weather widget. That should give 
you a good start.

Good afternoon,

I have an inquiry, so please bear with me, because I’m uncertain about some 
things.

When I received a new work iPhone, one thing I noticed was that when I’d put my 
finger on the Weather app, it would not just say “Weather”, but it would also 
give me the location and other information, such as temperatures and whether or 
not rain was expected. My own personal phone doesn’t do that when I touch the 
weather app. I have to go into it and then read about my location and 
temperature and such. Much more swiping.

I’d love to be able to have my weather app speak those things on my personal 
iPhone as well.

It’s the same with the calendar app on my work iPhone. I’ll touch it, and it 
will give me the date, and then I swipe to the right, and it lets me know if I 
have any appointments or events. 

I’ve looked at things like settings in both apps, which really didn’t do me 
much good. Then, someone asked if I had widgets on my screen for these apps, 
and I had no idea what that meant. So, I thought I’d ask.

1.  What’s a widget?
2.  How can I make the weather app or widget speak my location’s 
temperature and relevant information by just simply touching it without 
actually getting into it?
3.  How can I get my calendar to automatically let me know if I have any 
appointments or events without always getting into it? 

If these things are being done on my Work iPhone, which is a 12, I would 
imagine they can be done on a 15 Pro.

Thanks for any information.

I’m also going to see if there are any AppleVis tutorials on whatever widgets 
are. 

Jim

You get announcements such as it will start raining in 15 minutes at your 
location.

You can also get into edit mode by just flicking down once and double tapping.

 

I have the weather widget in a stacked widget, and I hear “74 degrees, cloudy, 
high of 74 degrees, low of 64 degrees” when I touch the app, so I think Mario 
is right, and that’s what you need.

 

I’m also wondering what you get when you turn on badges in the notifications 
for the weather app.

RE: Those of you that have Nest Thermostats.

[Mario Eiland]

Hi Jenny,

It sounds like you might have your thermostat set on learning mode?

I turned learning mode off and I just go with the conventional way of using a 
schedule. I keep mine always in heat or cool mode depending in which season we 
are and om home mode all the time. There are four of us living in the house and 
seldom is the house empty. So I don’t find it necessary to have it change to 
away.

I scheduled for the night temperature to drop as low as 65 degrees from 10:00 
PM to 5:00 AM. 

>From 5:00 AM to 10:00 PM I have it set to get up to 68 degrees.

Of course, if I need it to change it then I use my Alexa to tell it to set the 
heat or cool to whatever temperature I want. Also, I can use the Nest app to do 
that as well, but I find it’s more convenient to use the Alexa devices.

I don’t know if that helps any, but there you go. 😊

RE: Accessible doorbell systems

[Mario Eiland]

Hi Don,

 

When asking about accessible doorbells, what do you mean by accessible? How 
accessible would you like it to be?

I also use the Ring doorbell and I have it integrated with everybody’s  iPhone 
who lives in the house plus our Echo devices. Any time anyone nears our house 
porch we receive announcements that it detected motion. If someone rings the 
doorbell we have the option to either pick it up via the Ring app on our 
iPhones or the Alexa by simply asking Alexa to answer doorbell. For those who 
can see can activate the camera on their phones and see who is at the door. 
Unfortunately, it doesn’t identify the person for me yet. I’m hoping that’s 
near in the future with the advancement of AI. But for now I love it since we 
are notified any time we have a package dropped off and if anyone is home then 
we can immediately retrieve it.

I’m not sure how it integrates with the Google Home, but with the Echo devices 
you can download, what they call a Skill with the Alexa app and as long as you 
have a Ring account establish then you can sign into the Ring Skill and 
integrate it with your Echo. It’s pretty awesome!

Hope that helps some!

RE: Those of you that have Nest Thermostats.

[Mario Eiland]

HI Jenny,

I don’t know if you use an iPhone or some other type of phone. I use an iPhone 
and I installed the Nest app on there. In the event that you do have access to 
the Nest app on an iPhone. This is how you would turn off the learning mode.

Open the Nest app > Find the Settings button and double tap to get into 
Settings > scroll all the way to the bottom and look for whatever you named the 
location of where the thermostat is located (in my case it’s Dining Room) > 
double tap here to get into the specific settings for your location > look for 
Auto Schedule and turn that off.

 

If you use Alexa, you can also integrate your thermostat with it. Go to your 
Alexa app on your smart phone and download the Nest Skill.

 

Hope that helps some!

If you think the learning mode is on, how do I turn that off? Or would it be 
better for a visual person to do that with the wheel thing on the thermostat 
that’s connected to the wall?  Also, will I still conserve energy if learning 
mode is turned off? When I leave to go somewhere will it go into a way mode 
since you know how like when you leave your house that’s why it normally does 
that it’s so it’s not using as much energy once you leave your house.

RE: Accessible doorbell systems

[Mario Eiland]

The doorbell has to be installed outside like your standard doorbell. I had 
someone sighted do that for me. Actually, I had a professional do it for me. I 
think that’s all you would need, accept I went further by purchasing a wireless 
chime that was place upstairs so if the doorbell was rang then it could be 
heard in every echo in the house plus your smart phone.

It’s been several years ago since I bought the equipment.

Ring Chime Pro - $44.99

Ring Video Doorbell 2 - $134.99

Installation was $58.49.

Just remember this was 3 years ago.

 

Hope that helps.

RE: Accessible doorbell systems

[Mario Eiland]

The Ring doorbell replaces the old one. So it’s powered like the original.

How is the outside door bell unit powered?

I assume it is attached to the wall. 

does a hole need to be drilled through the wall to connect to the household 
wiring?

 

Thanks,

It’s been several years ago since I bought the equipment.

Ring Chime Pro - $44.99

Ring Video Doorbell 2 - $134.99

Installation was $58.49.

Just remember this was 3 years ago.

 

Hope that helps.

Hi Don,

 

When asking about accessible doorbells, what do you mean by accessible? How 
accessible would you like it to be?

I also use the Ring doorbell and I have it integrated with everybody’s  iPhone 
who lives in the house plus our Echo devices. Any time anyone nears our house 
porch we receive announcements that it detected motion. If someone rings the 
doorbell we have the option to either pick it up via the Ring app on our 
iPhones or the Alexa by simply asking Alexa to answer doorbell. For those who 
can see can activate the camera on their phones and see who is at the door. 
Unfortunately, it doesn’t identify the person for me yet. I’m hoping that’s 
near in the future with the advancement of AI. But for now I love it since we 
are notified any time we have a package dropped off and if anyone is home then 
we can immediately retrieve it.

I’m not sure how it integrates with the Google Home, but with the Echo devices 
you can download, what they call a Skill with the Alexa app and as long as you 
have a Ring account establish then you can sign into the Ring Skill and 
integrate it with your Echo. It’s pretty awesome!

Hope that helps some!

Yes and don’t think would need the extra doorbell chime since live in a one

I’m sure can get someone like my Dad who is an electrical engineer to wire the 
doorbell up or someone from the condo association or hire someone to do it.

So excuse me if this has already been answered from others; but, take it  that 
can talk back and forth through the system when someone rings the doorbell?

Hello,

 

What I need is a motion detector. I don't need another doorbell.

Currently I have the logenex intercom, teledoorBell. The intercom box on the 
outside has a door bell button. Inside, the home phones ring (with a distinct 
pattern). Cordless phones can be moved around easily for convenience. 

Someone mentioned that the Ring doorbell pro has a motion detector. 

Having two door bell buttons would be confusing to door visitors. 

 

Is there an iPhone app for a motion detector?

This would warn me when there is a delivery: package, groceries etc.

Hi Carolyn,

What do you mean when you say your card?
I am talking about the caller ID on an iPhone.
I've had caller ID turned on my iPhone for over 5 years.
I accidentally   turned it off, now that I think of it.
So, are you saying you don't have caller ID on your phone?
What kind of a phone do you have?

   Hi Everyone,



   Some way some how my caller ID has been turned off.

   When I call someone, they always ask why do I have my caller ID 
not shown.

   I went in to  settings, phone, caller ID, tap on show my caller 
ID, but all I get when I do that is a message says in progress.

   I can't seem to turn on my caller ID.

   Is there some way I can turn on my caller ID so when I call 
someone they will know the call is coming from me?

   I have a XR with 17.4.1.





   Thank you all.

RE: Heading Level Access In Safari Browser

[Mario Eiland]

Use the rotor while in the Safari app and look for headings. Once you hear 
headings then flick down with one finger and that should take you from heading 
to heading. To go up flick up.
If you can't find the heading option in the rotor then you must add it in the 
VoiceOver rotor settings.

Good luck!

Subject: Heading Level Access In Safari Browser

Hi Group,

I finally was able to change some settings in Safari Browser on the iPhone to 
get it to display HTML files that are stored locally on the iPhone.  I  created 
my modified Dice Football Game Play Sheet by using headings to more quickly 
navigate from play list to play list.  I have the lists separated into running 
plays, kicking plays, passing plays and conversions at level one and the 
various list of items such as short pass, long pass and screen pass for the 
passing plays and the running plays such as left end run, right tackle play and 
reverse at heading level two.

Is there any way to navigate by heading levels using a quick number scheme such 
as is done on Windows desktops with quick key number navigation such as number 
one for heading level one and number two for heading level two on the iPhone?

Thanks for any help.

then go down to disappearing messages. Tap on it in set it to turn it off. That

RE: Question about Voiceover?

[Mario Eiland]

Hi Candie,
Are you aware that you can isolate VoiceOver's volume by adding it to the 
rotor, and instead of using the volume buttons on your iPhone you would use the 
volume control on the rotor? Otherwise when you  use the hard volume buttons of 
the iPhone you turn up or down the volume to everything.
Try the following:
Go to settings > Accessibility > > VoiceOver > Rotor > Rotor Items > Volume
Swipe until you locate the volume option. Make sure that the Volume option is 
selected and that should place it in the rotor. Now look for it on the rotor 
and when you hear it announce either flick up to turn up or flick down to turn 
down the volume.
I hope that helps!

Yes I have a difficult time hearing voice over. The voice or music on the other

haven't figured out how to fix this.

RE: Changing an Apps Name

[Mario Eiland]

Don’t you just double-tap and hold on the second tap and listen for three tones 
and let go? Then you should be able to rename the app.

Subject: Changing an Apps Name

 

Hi All,

 

Running iOS17.5.1 on SE2022.  We're upgrading our ADT security system and this 
new system uses a different app titled, "Control."

 

I would like to change this app's name to ADT Control, is it possible to do 
this?  If so, how do I do it?  I searched for ways to rename an app, but what's 
being suggested is changing things I've never heard of.  Thanks much.


Take care.  Mike.  Sent from my iBarstool.  Go Dodgers!

Hello dear listers,
I posted my question on the BlindApple mailing list but got no replies or 
comments. It sounds that there are no bluetooth keyboard users on that list. 
Hopefully I will be luckier here. 
I am a new user of bluetooth keyboard with VoiceOver on an iPad. Should I keep 
the full keyboard access setting found under settings, accessibility,, full 
keyboard access on or off? What are the advantages or disadvantages of  keeping 
this setting to off or on when using a bluetooth keyboard? Which setting do you 
recommend? 
I would appreciate your suggestions and help.

RE: A question for Bluetooth users

[Mario Eiland]

Hi Cris,
I am not Robert, but I also use a Bluetooth keyboard quite extensively. I have 
never delt with the full keyboard feature before and I have been fine. 
Regarding your question about using it either with an iPhone or iPad, I use it 
with both although I don't recommend totally blind people to use an iPad since 
it's a bit unwieldy and you have to cover a lot of more screen real estate when 
navigating. I usually, recommend iPads for low vision folks so that they can 
take advantage of the screen size when dealing with zooming in and out.

RE: A question for Bluetooth users

I can't answer that question. I don't use an iPad. I imagine the layout might 
be a bit different from that of the iPhone since it's being used on a larger 
screen and it takes advantage of the screen size. I presume you use the iPhone 
version of WhatsApp? I find it pretty easy to navigate WhatsApp on the iPhone.

RE: saving youtube videos to dropbox or thumb drive

[Mario Eiland]

Hi,

I use the following program to download YouTube audio and video files.

TCA-MediaDownloader

 

Download the program here.

https://drive.google.com/uc?id=18drXPIjAfjj_BjX1CKnAX1-pT3J4P7fP 

 &export=download

When unarchiving (also known as unzipping) the .rar file, it has a password, it 
is all lowercase and you 

can simply select and copy it to the clipboard and paste it when the process 
asks for the password:

Tecnoconocimientoaccesible

It is a program that does not need to be installed, simply unrar it into it's 
own folder and run it's 

executable.

You said you already downloaded them, as long as you know where they are just 
go to the video, start playing it and find the Sghare button, then send it to 
your Dropbox.

As for saving it on a thumb drive directly from an iPhone would require you to 
have one of the USB drives which can plug directly into an iPhone, if you have 
anything below an iPhone 15 this means the drive has to have a Lightning port. 
Such drives usually come with an app and you would save it to the drive the 
same way via the share sheet and then instead of selecting Dropbox, you would 
select the app your thumb drive uses.

I did flick down while on a message & selected copy.  I then went to a blank

text selection option but no paste there either.  I know this is a pretty basic 
thing but once I select copy on a message & go to a blank message to someone

I did try the 3 finger quadruple tap & that seemed to work except for the link.

If you want to copy a text message you just have to flick down when you are on 
the message you want and copy will be one of the rotor items.

It only copies individual messages in a conversation, however.

Apparently text selection is not available in messages. On the Action menu

otherwise there is the three finger quadruple tap to copy the last thing spoken

You only get text selection in edit fields or places where you can actually 
select any text.

Have you tried, for example, in the Messages app or Mail app or in Notes? Open 
a new Note and write something, then turn the rotor and I am pretty sure you 
would find text selection.

So what am I doing wrong?  And what is actions in the rotor?

RE: Is it possible to extract from a screen recording the audio track only?

[Mario Eiland]

Hello Keith,
I found this app that sounds like it would do what you are hoping to accomplish.

https://apps.apple.com/us/app/media-converter-video-to-mp3/id1294207675

Media Converter — video to MP3
 is a free online video converter that helps you convert any video to MP3 on 
iPhone — hence the name. This free third-party app supports most of the audio
and video formats — and even saves the converted file on your iPhone for later 
reference. Here's how to convert screen recording to MP3 on iPhone. 
Step 1: To begin, open the Apple Store on your iPhone and search 'Media 
Converter — video to MP3.' Install the application and locate the 'Extract 
Audio'
option to get an MP3 file from the locally saved video file or screen 
recording. 
Open the third-party app and select the Extract Audio option
Step 2: Next, select 'Import Files' followed by 'My iPhone' to select the video 
file and convert the screen recording to MP3. 
Click Import Files followed by My iPhone
Step 3: Once done, select the 'Extract Audio' option and then select MP3 as the 
output format. 
Click Extract Audio to convert the file into MP3 format
That's it! The MP3 file will be automatically saved in 'My Creations.' If you 
wish to save the MP3 file on your iPhone, select More > Save to Photos. 
Click the More option followed by Save to Photos

Hope that gives you somewhere to start!

Glad to hear it worked for you.
My method is to use Dropbox, the iOS version in conjunction with the Windows

application called WAV MP3 Converter to convert the files.

Hi Mario,
I was successful in converting two screen recording videos to MP3 audio using 
the app you  recommended. The process, for me, was a bit more convoluted than 
you described… No doubt, probably my error. I’m sure it will become much 
smoother as I work with the app some more.

Sent from my iPhone Hello all,
I have no difficulty paying people with Zelle. In general, I find the Bank of 
America app quite accessible. However, I am now trying to request money from 
someone who does not use Zelle easily. I can get to the screen and can find 
that contact, and there is Zelle credentials. However, once I enter the amount 
I am requesting, I swipe to a button that reads deposit to select account. 
However, if I try to activate the button, nothing happens. Interestingly, my 
sited husband indicates that there is no such button at that spot on the 
screen. I have tried connecting with Bank Of America employees to no avail. Any 
suggestions greatly appreciated. I’ve been at this for quite some time today 
without success.
Amy.

RE: Typing Spanish in PC

[Mario Eiland]

You can also do the following:
Before you type the letter you want to modify, for example, adding an accent to 
the letter a, you can press Ctrl+' (apostrophe" and then type the vowel and it 
will at the acute to it.
For the ñ you will press Ctrl+Shift+tilde, which is to the right of the 1 on 
the number row and follow it by pressing n. If you wanted to make the letter a 
capital letter then simply press shift with that letter.

Tried to update, but it keeps saying there was an error downloading iOS 17.6 
and then the OK button. Maybe the servers are busy or something. I am using an 
iPhone 14 anybody else having this issue?

RE: mp3s to apple playlist?

[Mario Eiland]

HI Tom,

It sounds like you just want to add a few tracks of your own to a playlist you 
created via Apple Music?

Have you installed iTunes on your computer? If you have, make sure you have 
signed in with your Apple ID.

Once you have signed in with your Apple ID you should be able to tab to where 
it says Library Sidebar Tree view. Once you get here arrow down or up until you 
find the playlist where you want to add your songs.

Once you get there press F6 until you hear “Name of Playlist” table. Find your 
tracks and copy them into the clipboard with Ctrl + C  and paste them here. It 
will say something like 

iTunes dialog
iCloud Music Library playlists can only contain songs from your iCloud Music 
Library. If you continue, New Wave will be removed from your iCloud Music 
Library and will only be available on this computer.
Remove from iCloud Button

 

Go ahead and press spacebar or enter on the button that says “remove from 
iCloud” and you’ll be fine. And that’s it. Now, you should be able to go to 
your playlist in your Music app on your iPhone and see the tracks you added.

 

Hope that helps!

I have added many tracks this way and created many playlist from my own cd’s 
this way.

If you have any further questions email me at eila...@gmail.com 
 .

 

Good luck,

Mario

Subject: mp3s to apple playlist?

 

Hi,

Is it possible to do the following? I have a particular playlist in my music 
folder that I created using songs from Apple Music and actually also downloaded 
them to my phone. There are a few songs I really love that are not on apple 
music but that I have as mp3s on my PC computer with JAWS. Is there a way to 
somehow import those particular mp3s to my phone so that I can then add them to 
the specific playlist? I don’t know if iTunes would work but is that something 
that can be used on my computer? I’d need some good directions though.

If there are easier ways, I’d love to know. Could I also get them from 1drive 
or something?

Tom

RE: too much spoken punctuation!

HI Sandy,

Let’s try the following.

Go to:

Settings > Accessibility > VoiceOver > Verbosity > Punctuation > Active 
Punctuation > (It will show you what your current setting is there. Mine is set 
to “Some”. Most likely yours is either set to most or all.)

 

Best luck!

this is embarrassing! I've been an iPhone user since they've been iPhones,

VoiceOver reading all the full stops, et cetera, I have tried to get rid, but I 
can't, can someone tell me what setting I have to change to get back to simple

RE: too much spoken punctuation!

Have you added the punctuation item to your rotor for any reason? If so, I 
wonder if you did, changed it to either most or all and then took it off? Or 
maybe still in the rotor?

thank you for this, I have gone to voice settings, verbosity, punctuation, and 
double tap on active punctuation, and set it to "some", and it's still doing 
it! Every,, every:, every., And it never did before! I don't know what I've 
done wrong, I have tried resetting that has done nothing either. I may have 
changed something somewhere else in my attempts to activate a voice over 
shortcut…

Thanks again for trying though! Sandy and Z Zaini
