RE: The future of my iPhone 4
Hi Chris, I did something similar recently with my iPhone 4 on O2. I get 300 o2 to o2 minutes 300 minutes to other mobiles and landlines Unlimited texts 250mb of data All this for just £11 a month on sim only. Although the data allowance is low I spend most of my time on wifi nets and use hardly any data whilst out and about. Paul -Original Message- From: viphone@googlegroups.com [mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Chris H Sent: 08 August 2013 21:36 To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: The future of my iPhone 4 Good evening all. I've had a discussion over the landline regarding the future of my iPhone 4. I of course do not have to take her advice but this is the plan at my end. Since my iPhone 4 is in a condition of, "if it ain't broke, don't fix it", I am considering to downgrade from an iPhone contract to a sim only contract. I don't know if you have these where you are but it's basically a mixture between pay and go in the form of you only get a sim as part of the contract, no legal documentation or anything, and pay monthly where you get a certain amount of cross network minutes and texts a month. I believe with my current provider O2, I can get unlimited minutes, unlimited texts and 1 gb of data for just £20 a month. I only have to be on these sim only contracts a minimum of 30 days, after that I can cancel at any time. Just thought I would let you know.

I've try Paul suggestion, but it doens't work. For som reason, newsfeed become a heading rather than anything else on the home screen.

RE: A Facebook question
Hi Kirsten, Long time no speak, hope you are doing ok. I have spent the last couple of months wrestling with exactly the same Facebook problem as you and think I have finally got my head around it. Firstly the way Facebook is sorting your feed when everything seems all over the place is basically sorting items based on their popularity. So if a post that has been dead for a few days receives a comment from someone then it will jump back to the top of the list as Facebook is trying to show you that something new has happened on this post and you should read it. This drove me insane as when you are moving down the list with voiceover I could never establish at what point I didn't need to go any further as I had already read the stories. There is indeed a way to sort your feed in different ways but a word of warning before I tell you how. It does not stick. If you go into notification's at any point and tap on an item and then hit back to get back to your feed you may discover that your newsfeed is back in that annoying sort order. This happens often when you leave the app and load it again or if you log out of the app and back in. Basically it requires diligence to keep the feed sorted in anything other than the newsfeed view. As for sorting the list otherwise, other posters are correct... at the top of the feed you will find a control that will allow you to do this. It is not particularly clear but it will be the control after check-in. The control will be named whatever view you are in so most likely this says newsfeed. After this you may have a list of one or two other sort methods such as most recent, following etc. If you hear only newsfeed before it goes onto your feed then double tap on newsfeed and this will expand the list of sort methods to include one or two more and also a see more item which if you double tap on will show the whole list of sort options. If you don't even get the newsfeed control at the top of your feed then pull down to refresh and sometimes it appears. Most recent is a good one to sort your feed with newest stuff at the top and it does not change if posted are commented on etc. All friends is a good one if you only want to see posts from your friends not from groups you are in or pages you like. To be honest, after figuring all this out I have now been experimenting with just leaving it in newsfeed order and training myself to understand what Facebook is trying to do, as I got sick of changing the view all the time. I wonder if Facebook will allow this to become sticky in a future update but I doubt it somehow. I hope this helps.

Specific GPS app advice
Hi all, I know this topic has been covered quite a lot recently but I am keen to get people's views on my specific requirements. I find myself in a position where I want to buy a navigation app and thanks to a gift have £25 on my itunes account. I could add to this a little but would rather not. So my requirements are as follows. I am looking for :- A walking turn by turn spoken navigation app. Must work well with voiceover (obviously) on an iPhone 4 Must work in UK I basically want it to get me from A to B walking , nothing fancy, don't need to know that I am passing the massage parlour or a kebab house just get me to where I want to go. :) I have been considering Navigon at the moment but was concerned that some issues were raised with version 2 regards performance on the iPhone 4 and didn't know whether these had been resolved in version 2.5. I am keen to hear views of those that have bought apps that fall into my specific requirements. Many thanks Paul -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the "VIPhone" Google Group.

RE: Taking Navigon offroad?
Wow that sounds perfect for what I need. If you are on commission for sales of this app then you just earned some money from me.

It tells you distance and clockface. For example, I recently added the washington monument to my favorites this way, from my home in South Carolina. It told me 400 and something miles at 2 o'clock. Then as I was on the train, the distance shrank, and it was at 12 o'clock . When I got to Washington DC, I could navigate to it, keeping it at 12 as much as I could. A few months ago, I tried my way lite, and couldn't get it to work that well. When I got to a point, it told me the distance to the next point, but not the direction. I use ariadne for this kind of orientation. It also helped me out of a spot. I got on a city bus, but after getting on, the driver changed the route number and I started going to a different part of town than I was expecting to go. Using Ariadne, I knew where my house was, distance and clockface. So when I got as close as I could (1 mile) I got off and used it to get me home. If I had stayed on the bus to the transit station, then took the right bus, it would have taken me over an hour. I am anticipating the Breadcrumb app from LookTel. There is no timetable as to when it will be out, but if they continue to put out such awesome products, it will be the best app for this type of off-road, or point to point travel.

Taking Navigon offroad?
Hi all, Can any navigon users out there tell me is it only good for street navigation, or can it be useful when country walking or hiking in terms of direction finding to waypoints? For example does it provide you of the straightline direction and distance of a waypoint even when no roads or paths exist? My second question is also about navigon... I am assuming that you can enter your destination as a latitude and longtitude as opposed to a postal code or street name? For context, I am looking for ways to improve my enjoyment of geocaching. Many thanks for any help you can provide. Paul -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the "VIPhone" Google Group.

Geocaching
Hi all, I am new to geocaching and wonder whether others have experiencing of caching with the iPhone and what there experiences have been. I am using the geocaching.com app and it seems to work ok apart from a couple of little bugs and as a blind user I am left wanting more from it at times with regards to getting a clear indication of cache locations. Would love to hear anyone's advice on any voiceover friendly tools for geocaching.
