Focus 14 Blue with iPhone: Closing Applications From the App Switcher
Hey, guys, I'm using a Focus 14 braille display with my iPhone. So far, it's been great for the light use to which I put it. I had a question though. How does one close applications from the app switcher. I'm still using IOS 6 and I'm just not sure how to do it. Is this list an okay place for braille display questions? Thanks, guys.

Re: Recording voicemails
If you're looking for super high quality, List recorder probably isn't for you. You can change the quality in settings, but it's not professional or anything. Having that said, I used List Recorder to record my daughter's heartbeat at every OB visit when I was pregnant, I've used it to record when I hang out with friends and I use it to record my daughter's Music and Movement classes. I love the app and I'd say go for it.

Custom Ring Tone Volume Louder Than Voice Over
Hey guys. I just learned how to create ringtones with iTunes and it works. My only qualm is this. When the phone rings, the ringtone is so much louder than voice over, and voiceover doesn't rise above the music as it normally does in order to hear the name of the caller. Has anyone created successful ringtones where the volume automatically dips so voiceover can speak the caller's name or number and I can actually hear it?

Re: taking photos when blind
I've found that on my iPhone 4S, if you're using the back camera, you can use the up volume button to take the picture. It'll be on the bottom left, I think. If you're using the front facing camera, I think it would be bottom right. Si - Original Message - From: "Joanne Chua" To: Cc: "iphone group" Sent: Saturday, June 01, 2013 8:31 PM Subject: Re: taking photos when blind Hi, Not sure if such apps exist, however, there are technics you can use that will give you reasonable result with whatever you are photographing. It can use in both iphones and also digital camera. I'm not sure what device you have, let say, you using an iphone. if you taking picture of something, try to aline it on your forhead, as if, your eyes become the camera lance. So, whatever you see will be what will be the camera sees. If you can picture yourself in front of the object or the subject you photographing of, you usually have 80% chance of taking it in a line as your eye sees it. It is much easier using a camera, however, using it on an iphone help as well. However, using an iphone does require a lot of practice, as the take picture button is on the sscreen. Another tip, place the phone slitely left to your eye, or to your forehead, as the lance of the back facing camera is on the top right side of the camera. however, if you using the front facing camera, its on the top middle. Again, it takes a lot of practice to get use to, but you'll eventually get there. Hope this help. I hope this help.
