Thanks.  This was the first time I had encountered something that seems to 
require this.

Several Apple services require that you have two factor service enabled. You 
only really need to re-do it on major upgrades, or new devices and when 
accessing iCloud on a web browser other than Safari.

While it is annoying the first couple of time since the UI is not intuitive to 
a blind user it also gets easier after you understand the process.

I read on the web that if off, and you turn it on, you have only 2 weeks to 
turn it off again.

In the 1 year since getting my first iPhone, it must have been turned on and I 
didn't know. 

Maybe the store clerk who sett me up to get started with SIRI and VoiceOver,  
did it. 

I guess that means I can't turn it off.

 

If anyone knows how to, please let us know.

Are there any downsides to using two factor?  Also, does this mean that every 
time I open my phone, for example, that in addition to face ID or entering my 
PIN, I would also need to enter the code sent to me?  

 

Thanks for any information.

No, there is no extra step if you unlock your iPhone, you do it as you always 
do with Face Id or Touch Id depending on your phone model and of course from 
time to time your PIN if you reboot your phone or if biometric authentication 
doesn't work for some reason, but it's the same as before.

2-Factor authentication for your Apple Id only comes into play if you log into 
the website and so on.

Sieghard, I understand the use of two factor authentication within apps , such 
as for banking.  My original question relates to setting it up as security for 
the iPhone itself, which it looks like I might need to do if I want to be able 
to switch automatically between using my airpods pro 2nd gen on my iPhone and 
my iPad.

 

I was wondering if there are any disadvantages to setting it up on my phone, 
and also if it is set, is that an extra step I would have to take every time I

Ron, you are talking about Apples and Oranges here, non pun intended, but using 
biometric authentication like Touch Id or Face Id has nothing to do with 
2-Factor authentication.

In any case, you cannot set up Touch Id or Face Id without also setting up a 
6-digit PIN. I say 6-digit because that is the default on the iPhone, you can 
still do a 4-digit PIN, but it's not immediately apparent how to do it since 
Apple wants you to have the higher security of a 6 digit PIN.

Not using Touch Id or Face Id depending on which device you have is a little 
bit like using a set of lockpick tools to unlock your front door instead of 
simply using your key. It is very quick, for me at least it is highly reliable 
and for the occasional time when for some reason it does not unlock via Face 
Id, I just use the PIN.

2-Factor authentication is an entirely different security measure as it 
requires you to authenticate your sign-in with a second method in addition to 
entering your password. For example, if I want to log into my bank's online 
system, I go to their website and enter my user name and my password, but now 
instead of getting logged in, another screen comes up which tells me that a 
notification was sent to my mobile device and I now first have to unlock my 
iPhone, then I double tap on the notification and I am then presented with my 
bank's app which asks me to confirm that I am trying to sign in. Only when I 
tap on "allow" will the sign in process on the website  complete.

Other websites or services employ different methods of 2-factor authentication, 
if I sign into Dropbox online I am asked to enter a code which I have to get 
from my authenticator app where I have setup Dropbox like that, yet other sites 
may send a code via text message or email.

I read on the web that if off, and you turn it on, you have only 2 weeks to 
turn it off again.

In the 1 year since getting my first iPhone, it must have been turned on and I 
didn't know. 

Maybe the store clerk who sett me up to get started with SIRI and VoiceOver,  
did it. 

I guess that means I can't turn it off.

Hi Group,

I always worry about any type of picture/fingerprint/alternative 
method of authentication. I worry that my fingers might have gotten 
dirty or sticky or callused or that I wouldn't be able to position my 
iPhone properly for the AI within the authentication process to 
properly identify my 'ugly' face.

That is why I try avoiding two factor authentication.

Hello,

I recently wanted to turn two factor authentication off but!

I read on the web that if off, and you turn it on, you have only
2 weeks to turn it off again.

In the 1 year since getting my first iPhone, it must have been
turned on and I didn't know.

Maybe the store clerk who sett me up to get started with SIRI and
VoiceOver,  did it.

I guess that means I can't turn it off.

If anyone knows how to, please let us know.

Ron, you are talking about Apples and Oranges here, non pun intended, but using biometric authentication like Touch Id or Face Id has nothing to do with 2-Factor authentication.
In any case, you cannot set up Touch Id or Face Id without also setting up a 6-digit PIN. I say 6-digit because that is the default on the iPhone, you can still do a 4-digit PIN, but it's not immediately apparent
 how to do it since Apple wants you to have the higher security of a 6 digit PIN.
Not using Touch Id or Face Id depending on which device you have is a little bit like using a set of lockpick tools to unlock your front door instead of simply using your key. It is very quick, for me at least
 it is highly reliable and for the occasional time when for some reason it does not unlock via Face Id, I just use the PIN.
2-Factor authentication is an entirely different security measure as it requires you to authenticate your sign-in with a second method in addition to entering your password. For example, if I want to log into
 my bank's online system, I go to their website and enter my user name and my password, but now instead of getting logged in, another screen comes up which tells me that a notification was sent to my mobile device and I now first have to unlock my iPhone, then
 I double tap on the notification and I am then presented with my bank's app which asks me to confirm that I am trying to sign in. Only when I tap on "allow" will the sign in process on the website  complete.

Hi,


I have been using 2factor autthentication for several years and the only 
time i have had to enter a six digit code is when signing in to my 
account on a new device.  Not sure if it needs to be enabled for 
anything else.  I think new devices are required to have it though.

Any Reason to Not Use Two Factor Authentication on iPhone and iPad

2024-06-24 Thread paekstrand
I have never set up two factor authentication on my iPhone or iPad.  I have
recently gotten the airpods pro 2nd generation, and it seems that in order
for them to switch automatically between the iPhone and iPad, I would need
to be using two factor authentication.

 

Are there any downsides to using two factor?  Also, does this mean that
every time I open my phone, for example, that in addition to face ID or
entering my PIN, I would also need to enter the code sent to me?  

 

Thanks for any information.

 

Pam

Re: Looking for an iPhone or IPad microphone

2024-06-20 Thread Richard Turner
It sounds like what you mean is a speaker that will become like an amplifier 
when you talk through your iPad, etc. 
There are some apps that do this. So you connect a bluetooth speaker to your 
iPad/iPhone and then the app turns your device into a microphone that 
broadcasts over the speaker. 
One called "Bluetooth Loud Speaker" does work, but I think there was a little 
delay. I have not used it in a long time. Its free, and the link is below. 
There may be others,  but this may get you on the right track:

Hi, has anyone tried the ElevenLabs  Reader for iPhone and iPad with voice

think about the AI voices allegedly the best natural-like voices? In I will
let you the link to the Appstore in case you don't have it yet, but I'm
asking for opinions because the app isn't available in my region. Here's the
link:

iMore - The #1 iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch blog

Apple's Shazam can now identify songs playing inside other iPhone and iPad apps 
even while you're wearing headphones

Apple's Shazam is now better than ever.
 
Shazam has long been the go-to app for people who want to know what song 
they're listening to but now it's better than ever thanks to a new version 17.3 
update.

The new update, which is now available for download via the App Store, adds 
support for identifying songs from other apps while you're listening via 
headphones for the very first time.

The new feature comes after Shazam was already able to identify songs from 
within other apps, but it was previously only able to do so while there were no 
headphones connected, limiting the usability somewhat. With Shazam 17.3, that 
has now changed.

Music to your ears
The new update, which can be downloaded for free now, works with both wired and 
Bluetooth headphones and earbuds which means AirPods, AirPods Max, and 
third-party options are all good to go. The lack of a requirement for Apple 
accessories is something that is definitely worth noting here.
"You can now identify music while wearing headphones (wired or Bluetooth)," the 
app's release notes explain. "Simply open the app, check for the headphone icon 
to confirm your headphones are connected, and then start recognizing music 
around you or within apps like TikTok, Instagram, and YouTube."

Apple bought Shazam back in 2017 and has been steadily integrating it with iOS 
and its other software for years. The app offers multiple widgets for quick 
music identification and more, but the ability to identify music from within 
another app is a huge boon for people who hear a song in an ad or video and 
want to be able to find out what it was.

More from iMore
•Shazam — Everything you need to know!
•Shazam now works 'harder' and 'longer' to recognize the song 
that's playing
•Shazam now puts your song history in Control Center even if you 
used Siri

Battery Widget for both iPhone And iPad?

2023-09-25 Thread Gerardo Corripio
How would I create a battery widget (like what size or with what 
characteristics), so that if I'm on my iPhone, I could not only see how much 
battery remains on my iPhone, but on my iPad as well? And the other way around: 
when I'm on my iPad, i could see not only my iPad's battery charge premaining, 
but also see my iPhone's remaining battery status? Both devices are under the 
same Apple account.
Thanks in advance for info.

Hi to all,
Richard, you said:
"...The one Apple sells for either USB or SD card connection works fine 
with books.

On a phone, it always requires external power.".
Sorry for a stupid question, but what external power do you mean?
Do you need to purchase any additional accessories like adapter to get 
external power or just regular Iphone/Ipad charger?
My friend has "Lightning to USB 3 camera adapter. She plugs it to the 
Iphone charging port. The adapter has two ports on the other end, One 
port is for plugging USb drives,  another port is for lightning 
Iphone/Ipad cable to charge Iphone.

She didn't mention extra power when she uses the adapter with her Iphone.
Thanks.

The iPad should be able to handle them without external power.
Now, if you plug in an external drive like a 1 or 2, or more TB hard 
drive, you will need extra power I think even with an iPad.

Ear Master and iPhone or iPad??

2021-09-24 Thread portillo.jim
Howdy,

 

Has anyone heard of a program called Ear Master Pro? It is a music program
that has to do with music theory training. There are various classes,
exercises, and workshops within the program that one can do.

I first tried it using my computer with JAWS, and it did not work at all. I
then tried it on my iPad using VoiceOver, and I got much farther into it,
but when it was time to do the lessons or exercises, nothing would happen.
It would just go back to the home screen.

I downloaded the app to the iPhone as well, and got similar results.

The program and app doesn't seem to like screen reading software. However,
before jumping the gun and complaining to the makers of the software, I
thought I'd ask if anyone on the list has used it and if it has worked for
you.

Thanks much.

Jim

The easiest way I’ve found to turn it on is to triple tap the volume slider in

option to toggle spatial audio on and off.

Subject: Re: Netflix now rolling out Spatial Audio support on iPhone and iPad

I have seen a few more articles talking about this Netflix spacial audio thing. 
They say it is rolling out slowly, and the toggle to turn on spacial audio for 
Netflix will be found in the control center they say. I’ve seen that in several 
articles now, and it is apparently not talking about that  menu that richard’s 
been talking about. They just say it’s a toggle on or off, not a menu. So I 
guess if you don’t see it in your control center, it hasn’t rolled out to your 
version of Netflix yet.

Believe you need to be using the Beta of iOS 15 to get the options in settings. 
You won't be able to enjoy Spatial Audio until you toggle it on for Video,

I was running iOS 14.7.1 too and experienced what you are currently. Install

9to5Mac  /  Chance Miller




Netflix has confirmed that it is now rolling out Spatial Audio support to its 
iPhone and iPad applications. This enables an immersive experience using 
directional audio filters, and it has been a long time coming to Netflix users. 
A Netflix spokesperson has confirmed to 9to5Mac that the company has started 
rolling out Spatial Audio support on iPhone and iPad on iOS 14. The news was 
first reported by users on Reddit as well as in a report from iPhoneSoft,
The toggle for managing Spatial Audio is located in the Control Center. The 
spatial audio feature is exclusive to AirPods Pro and AirPods Max. 
Apple says that spatial audio is an immersive experience using directional 
audio filters to “play sounds virtually anywhere in space, creating an 
immersive sound experience.” This will put surround channels exactly in the 
right spot, even as you turn your head or move your device.
Here’s how Apple describes the spatial audio feature for AirPods Pro and 
AirPods Max

OK, I’ll be looking forward to IOS 15 when it comes out, but as I said, I do 
see spatial audio when I double tap the volume slider in the control center 
when I’m using my Airpod Pros. BTW, I didn’t see this option with other 
headphones. Like I said, turning it on and off did make a difference with Apple 
TV Plus content. Sounds like I’ll be getting a lot more with IOS 15, but it 
seems like there’s already something there with my install of IOS 14.7.1.

Believe you need to be using the Beta of iOS 15 to get the options in settings. 
You won't be able to enjoy Spatial Audio until you toggle it on for Video, 
Audio or Both. The default is set too off.



I was running iOS 14.7.1 too and experienced what you are currently. Install 
the beta and all Spatial Audio settings will be available. Trust me.

as I was expecting, based on the hype I’ve seen about this feature. It could

set mines to both video and audio. The default is off. Think you need to 
set that option for the toggle in the Control Panel to disable/enable 
Spatial Audio.

You need to be using iOS Beta 15 to see the Spatial Audio option in 
Settings/Accessibility/Airpods...towards the bottom of the page.


You can also bring up the iOS Control Panel and triple tap on the 
Volume slider control That will launch a hidden menu in which "Enable 
Spatial Audio" can be toggled on or off from there too. It works on 
all audio playing on any app through your Airpods.


It works great and I plan on using it when listening to my Eagles vs. 
Pats preseason game on my iPhone 8 tonight. Have a SiriusXM 
subscription. Talk about feeling like I'm on the field. Should be fun!

You need to be using iOS Beta 15 to see the Spatial Audio option in

You can also bring up the iOS Control Panel and triple tap on the Volume

Audio" can be toggled on or off from there too. It works on all audio 
playing on any app through your Airpods.

I just tried with my AirPods Max and this iPhone 10 r running 14.7.1. I don’t 
see anything in control center. I also did not get any kind of menu when I did 
a single finger triple tap on the volume control in control center. I got the 
three ascending tones and no menu. According to these articles I’ve been 
seeing, the new Netflix feature, when it rolls out to your phone, will be 
available in iOS 14, you don’t have to wait for the beta.

Which is what spawned my first question on this. I don’t have any app settings 
in my control center, so unless I’m missing something, I’m not seeing how 
Netflix is going to get something in the control center to turn on and off a 
feature just for Netflix. I still need to play with it, and I’m still on IOS 
14.7.1, but I suspect Richard is right.

I have seen a few more articles talking about this Netflix spacial audio thing. 
They say it is rolling out slowly, and the toggle to turn on spacial audio for 
Netflix will be found in the control center they say. I’ve seen that in several 
articles now, and it is apparently not talking about that  menu that richard’s 
been talking about. They just say it’s a toggle on or off, not a menu. So I 
guess if you don’t see it in your control center, it hasn’t rolled out to your

I was running IOS 14.7.1 and didn't see the spatial audio setting. I 
updated to the iOS beta 15.6 and can access the settings now to enable it.



You need to bring up Safari browser and visit this page to learn more:

I did do a full backup of my iPhone 8 to iCloud and my PC before 
updating to Beta. Works great! Love my Airpod Max even more now.

don’t need the audio to appear as if it’s coming from my iPhone, since 
I’m not actually looking at the video on my phone. I’d assume you 
would not need to turn this on to work with special audio, but you 
could test it to make sure.

Nice! Does anyone know which movies or TV shows on Netflix has this 
spatial audio track available? Wish to test this out on my Airpods Max.


There is also a confusing setting on my iPhone called "Follow iPhone." 
It's located in Settings/Accessibility/Airpods. Not sure if this needs 
to be toggled off or on to enable the Spatial audio feature.

The toggle for managing Spatial Audio is located in the Control
Center. The spatial audio feature is exclusive to AirPods Pro and
AirPods Max.

Apple says that spatial audio is an immersive experience using
directional audio filters to “play sounds virtually anywhere in
space, creating an immersive sound experience.” This will put
surround channels exactly in the right spot, even as you turn your
head or move your device.

Here’s how Apple describes the spatial audio feature for AirPods
Pro and AirPods Max users:

Spatial audio with dynamic head tracking brings the movie
theater experience right to your AirPods Pro. By applying
directional audio filters and subtly adjusting the frequencies
each ear receives, spatial audio can place sounds virtually
anywhere in space, creating an immersive surround sound
experience. Using the gyroscope and accelerometer in your
AirPods Pro and your iPhone, spatial audio tracks the motion
of your head as well as your device, compares the motion data,
and then remaps the sound field so that it stays anchored to
your device even as your head moves.

iOS 15 takes Spatial Audio to the next level with a new Spatialize
Stereo option

RE: Netflix now rolling out Spatial Audio support on iPhone and iPad

2021-08-19 Thread Christopher Chaltain
I don't find the follow my iPhone setting any more, but this could be me and 
not the fact that it isn't there anymore. This predates special audio. I turned 
this off because as I'm wondering around the house, I don't need the audio to 
appear as if it's coming from my iPhone, since I'm not actually looking at the 
video on my phone. I'd assume you would not need to turn this on to work with 
special audio, but you could test it to make sure.

Nice! Does anyone know which movies or TV shows on Netflix has this spatial 
audio track available? Wish to test this out on my Airpods Max.



There is also a confusing setting on my iPhone called "Follow iPhone." It's 
located in Settings/Accessibility/Airpods. Not sure if this needs to be toggled 
off or on to enable the Spatial audio feature.

[https://9to5mac.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/6/2021/06/airpods-pro-spatial-audio-2.jpg?quality=82=all=1600]

Netflix has confirmed that it is now rolling out Spatial Audio support to its 
iPhone and iPad applications. This enables an immersive experience using 
directional audio filters, and it has been a long time coming to Netflix users.

A Netflix spokesperson has confirmed to 9to5Mac that the company has started 
rolling out Spatial Audio support on iPhone and iPad on iOS 14. The news was 
first reported by users on 
Reddit<https://na01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.reddit.com%2Fr%2FAirpodsmax%2Fcomments%2Fp6oiss%2Fspatial_audio_is_now_working_on_the_netflix_app%2F=04%7C01%7C%7C51b53053024f438650cf08d963066544%7C84df9e7fe9f640afb435%7C1%7C0%7C637649701387136296%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C1000=duMQw5uLmE0mP5HKGQXuHLs6QzJZJvooPiAdUUMe0Rk%3D=0>
 as well as in a report from 
iPhoneSoft<https://na01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fiphonesoft.fr%2F2021%2F08%2F18%2Fnetflix-active-spatial-audio-application-ios=04%7C01%7C%7C51b53053024f438650cf08d963066544%7C84df9e7fe9f640afb435%7C1%7C0%7C637649701387146248%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C1000=oI1%2FdfvsoLqeXmEzkWzzOtR%2B5AhhMO5bMKDV8XuWc08%3D=0>,

The toggle for managing Spatial Audio is located in the Control Center. The 
spatial audio feature is exclusive to AirPods Pro and AirPods Max.

Apple says that spatial audio is an immersive experience using directional 
audio filters to "play sounds virtually anywhere in space, creating an 
immersive sound experience." This will put surround channels exactly in the 
right spot, even as you turn your head or move your device.

Here's how Apple describes the spatial audio feature for AirPods Pro and 
AirPods Max users:

Spatial audio with dynamic head tracking brings the movie theater experience

True, but since I was just planning to test the ability to get to the special 
audio features through the volume slider, I figured an Apple show would be the 
best sure fire way to check it out. I’m not clear on whether the Netflix 
support has been rolled all the way out yet, although obviously I’ll take it

Actually you have to use headphones that support spatial audio to get that 
menu. 
I just tried with a pair of older plantronics headphones.
Before, I was using the Airpods Max.
So even with the beta, no menu without the right headphones.

RE: Netflix now rolling out Spatial Audio support on iPhone and iPad

2021-08-18 Thread Richard Turner
The menu will be there no matter the source if using supported headphones.
I think the article confused things by mentioning the control center access in 
the same breath as the fact Netflix is adding spatial audio; just after we 
cancelled Netflix, of course.

Netflix has confirmed that it is now rolling out Spatial Audio support to its 
iPhone and iPad applications. This enables an immersive experience using 
directional audio filters, and it has been a long time coming to Netflix users.

A Netflix spokesperson has confirmed to 9to5Mac that the company has started 
rolling out Spatial Audio support on iPhone and iPad on iOS 14. The news was 
first reported by users on

The toggle for managing Spatial Audio is located in the Control Center. The 
spatial audio feature is exclusive to AirPods Pro and AirPods Max.

Apple says that spatial audio is an immersive experience using directional 
audio filters to “play sounds virtually anywhere in space, creating an 
immersive sound experience.” This will put surround channels exactly in the 
right spot, even as you turn your head or move your device.

Here’s how Apple describes the spatial audio feature for AirPods Pro and 
AirPods Max users:

Spatial audio with dynamic head tracking brings the movie theater experience 
right to your AirPods Pro. By applying directional audio filters and subtly 
adjusting the frequencies each ear receives, spatial audio can place sounds 
virtually anywhere in space, creating an immersive surround sound experience. 
Using the gyroscope and accelerometer in your AirPods Pro and your iPhone, 
spatial audio tracks the motion of your head as well as your device, compares 
the motion data, and then remaps the sound field so that it stays anchored to 
your device even as your head moves.

iOS 15 takes Spatial Audio to the next level with a new Spatialize Stereo 
option<https://na01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2F9to5mac.com%2F2021%2F06%2F08%2Fios-15-and-macos-monterey-simulate-spatial-audio-for-non-dolby-content-with-new-spatialize-stereo-option%2F=04%7C01%7C%7Cadf105db6356499f52d708d9629a6e64%7C84df9e7fe9f640afb435%7C1%7C0%7C637649237703466626%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C1000=FYre1jgYTkeTTSp%2Fwh325jDxxBgrCaBq%2B4Wb3Z0ArUs%3D=0>,
 which simulates the Spatial Audio experience for non-Dolby Atmos content. This 
allows AirPods Pro and AirPods Max users to listen to pretty much any song or 
video.

Netflix has confirmed that it is now rolling out Spatial Audio support to its 
iPhone and iPad applications. This enables an immersive experience using 
directional audio filters, and it has been a long time coming to Netflix users.

A Netflix spokesperson has confirmed to 9to5Mac that the company has started 
rolling out Spatial Audio support on iPhone and iPad on iOS 14. The news was 
first reported by users on 
Reddit<https://na01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.reddit.com%2Fr%2FAirpodsmax%2Fcomments%2Fp6oiss%2Fspatial_audio_is_now_working_on_the_netflix_app%2F=04%7C01%7C%7C18d550cb4a7753a308d9629e4849%7C84df9e7fe9f640afb435%7C1%7C0%7C637649254225920465%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C1000=AJo08j1iQ1aZdMUAUltb%2FT%2F6L0MaIm09at9%2BxSF2iwg%3D=0>

The toggle for managing Spatial Audio is located in the Control Center. The 
spatial audio feature is exclusive to AirPods Pro and AirPods Max.

Apple says that spatial audio is an immersive experience using directional 
audio filters to “play sounds virtually anywhere in space, creating an 
immersive sound experience.” This will put surround channels exactly in the 
right spot, even as you turn your head or move your device.

Here’s how Apple describes the spatial audio feature for AirPods Pro and 
AirPods Max users:

Spatial audio with dynamic head tracking brings the movie theater experience 
right to your AirPods Pro. By applying directional audio filters and subtly 
adjusting the frequencies each ear receives, spatial audio can place sounds 
virtually anywhere

Well, I just went into control center on my phone which is not running the 
beta. I triple tapped on volume with one finger, and I did not see any sort of 
menu. Now I was not using my AirPods Pro or HomePods max. I should’ve said 
AirPods Max. So perhaps you actually have to be using them to access this menu, 
otherwise it’s in the beta.

If you go to Settings, Accessibility, Airpods, under the Spatial Audio heading 
you have a choice of having spatial audio off, only video, or audio and video I 
think.
anyway, the explanitory message below that says:



 When head tracking is turned on, spatial audio for supported audio and video 
content will adjust based on your head movement. You can control spatial audio 
in Control Center by touching and holding the volume slider, then tapping 
Spatial Audio.
Try a one finger triple tap on volume there in control center and you find a 
whole new menu of options for spatial audio. If on, it tries to provide that 
experience even with recordings that are not in spatial audio.
I like it.
I hope this is true and I'm not accidentlly including beta features but I do 
not have a device running 14.7 to double check;

Netflix now rolling out Spatial Audio support on iPhone and iPad

2021-08-18 Thread Mary Otten
Good news for AirPods Max and AirPods Pro owners who subscribe to Netflix.

Netflix now rolling out Spatial Audio support on iPhone and iPad
9to5Mac  /  Chance Miller


Netflix has confirmed that it is now rolling out Spatial Audio support to its 
iPhone and iPad applications. This enables an immersive experience using 
directional audio filters, and it has been a long time coming to Netflix users.

A Netflix spokesperson has confirmed to 9to5Mac that the company has started 
rolling out Spatial Audio support on iPhone and iPad on iOS 14. The news was 
first reported by users on Reddit as well as in a report from iPhoneSoft,

The toggle for managing Spatial Audio is located in the Control Center. The 
spatial audio feature is exclusive to AirPods Pro and AirPods Max.

Apple says that spatial audio is an immersive experience using directional 
audio filters to “play sounds virtually anywhere in space, creating an 
immersive sound experience.” This will put surround channels exactly in the 
right spot, even as you turn your head or move your device.

Here’s how Apple describes the spatial audio feature for AirPods Pro and 
AirPods Max users:

Spatial audio with dynamic head tracking brings the movie theater experience 
right to your AirPods Pro. By applying directional audio filters and subtly 
adjusting the frequencies each ear receives, spatial audio can place sounds 
virtually anywhere in space, creating an immersive surround sound experience. 
Using the gyroscope and accelerometer in your AirPods Pro and your iPhone, 
spatial audio tracks the motion of your head as well as your device, compares 
the motion data, and then remaps the sound field so that it stays anchored to 
your device even as your head moves.

iOS 15 takes Spatial Audio to the next level with a new Spatialize Stereo 
option, which simulates the Spatial Audio experience for non-Dolby Atmos 
content. This allows AirPods Pro and AirPods Max users to listen to pretty much 
any song or video.

Mike,

Have you done this from anything other than Apple Music?

 

I wanted to try it, but I don’t want the short clip in the music library, and 
the author seems to say you can use Dropbox, but I’m not finding an option to 
use anything outside of Apple for the sound clip.

 

Certainly nothing important, but it would be kind of fun to try.

 

Thanks,

 

 

Richard

iPhone owners are accustomed to hearing a familiar chime when they plug in 
their phone to charge. Up until iOS 14, you could not change this sound. If you 
didn’t like it, there was nothing you could do about it unless you were willing 
to jailbreak your phone.. 

But, starting with iOS 14, Apple freed you from this default sound by adding a 
hidden setting that lets you customize it. 

Though, changing this sound is not as easy as going into Settings and choosing 
a new sound. 

This sound is controlled by the action of charging your phone and can be 
changed within the Automation feature of the Shortcuts app. 

This automation option lets you set a custom sound both when you start charging 
and when you stop charging.

Customize the Charging Sound on Your iPhone or iPad, Here's How!

  Testing Your New Sound
  You should know that this setting technically does not change the default 
sound, but adds to it.

  Plug in your iPhone and when all is said and done, you are going to hear 
the Apple default sound followed by your custom sound.

  If you are creative, you can embrace the Apple tone and use it to 
complement your custom sound.

Mimeo Photos arrives on iPhone and iPad to print books, cards, calendars,
wall art, and more
By Michael Potuck

Mimeo Photos has been one of the popular choices to continue printing photos
within the Mac Photos app after Apple discontinued its native printing
service. Now Mimeo Photos has arrived on iPhone and iPad to make it easy to
print right from your camera roll and more.

Mimeo Photos is now available for free on the App Store for iPhone and iPad.
The app makes it seamless to turn your pictures into photobooks, cards,
calendars, photo puzzles, large prints on metal and canvas, and even
blankets and throws.

Mimeo Photos for iPhone and iPad works in both portrait and landscape with
an intuitive design for easy navigation on smaller screens. You can also
start and save a project and finish it on your Mac (requires signing in with
a free account).

You can upload pictures to the new iOS app right from your Photo Library,
the Files app, or capture a new photo directly into Mimeo. 

The company also says it will soon launch integration with Instagram,
Lightroom, Snapseed, VSCO, and ProCamera and support for Apple Pay, as well
as Apple's Shortcuts and Clips apps.

Mimeo also includes "a library of curated content and resources including
photography tips, project creation techniques and best practices tailored
for creating photo gifts on a mobile device."

Mimeo Photos for iPhone and iPad is available now. The company is also doing
a 20% off deal for spring, use code "SPRING20" at checkout.

Anchor Podcasting App for iPhone and iPad Updated with New Remote Recording Features, 9 to 5 Mac

Anchor podcasting app for iPhone and iPad updated with new remote recording
features
By Chance Miller 
 
Anchor is one of the easiest ways to launch a podcast, and its new focus is
on making it easy to record remotely with other people. The Spotify-owned
service announced today that it is introducing "Record With Friends 2.0"
directly in the Anchor app for iPhone and iPad.

For those unfamiliar, Anchor is an all-in-one podcast creation platform that
allows creators to record, distribute, and monetize shows entirely from the
Anchor app.

The "Record With Friends" feature will allow up to 4 people to join your
podcast recording simply by clicking an invitation link. Anchor handles the
technical side of things completely, so you don't have anything to worry
about while recording.

Invite up to 4 other people to join your recording. The invite link will
open in your guests' preferred browser on desktop or mobile (support for
Google Chrome coming soon), or in the Anchor app, if they have it. To help
you keep track of who's speaking, each guest will be asked to type in their
name before joining.

The feature comes as people everywhere practice working from home amid the
COVID-19 pandemic:

Talking to each other, sharing stories, and sparking conversations are a
crucial part of staying connected, and right now, podcasting is one of many
ways those connections can be maintained. So we wanted to make it easier to
record with others, even from a distance.
You can download the Anchor app on the App Store for free, optimized for
both iPhone and iPad.

Hello All, 

Although some of these features have already been discussed, there are a couple 
that I absolutely love, including the automatic document scanning feature which 
works beautifully with VoiceOver in terms of guiding a blind person in lining 
up the camera for the automatic scan.  While I'm not certain how much use a

iOS 13.2: The 13 best hidden iPhone and iPad features we can find We combed 
through the iPhone 11 and iPad Pro -- here's what we found.
November 5, 2019 7:30 AM PST
 
iOS 13 is a pretty significant update. 
Apple's iOS 13 and iPadOS 13 launch has been a whirlwind. Since its initial 
release, we've seen several updates released in just over a month. The latest 
version is iOS 13.2, which added support for the iPhone 11's Deep Fusion camera 
trick, and the new AirPods Pro (read our in-depth AirPods Pro review here), 
along with a bunch of new emoji. All of that is in addition to the core 
features iOS 13 brought to your devices. After you've updated your iPhone or 
iPad to the latest software and caught your breath, make sure to try out the 
new dark mode (huzzah!), the gesture keyboard and improvements made to Safari, 
along with anything else we cover in our complete guide to iOS 13. 

Those features are great and all, but we've also found a handful of features 
Apple didn't announce that are just as good, if not better. The new volume 
indicator alone is -- chef's kiss -- a feature iOS has needed for years. And 
iMessage search, well, it's downright amazing. Don't forget about the new 
photo-sharing options. 
Below are 13 of the best, hidden features we found in iOS 13. If you haven't 
installed iOS 13 yet, make sure you get your phone ready for the update before 
taking the plunge. Should something go wrong while it installs, you'll be glad 
you took the time. Oh, and if you're still on the fence about getting an iPhone 
11, be sure to read our iPhone 11 review.  

1.
Optimized battery charging
Routinely charging your iPhone's ($900 at Amazon) battery to full, and keeping 
it there for extended amounts of time, can damage your battery over time. A new 
option in iOS 13 is intended to help prolong your battery's life by learning 
your charging habits and preventing the battery from immediately charging to 
100%. 
If you normally charge overnight while you sleep, Optimized Battery Charging 
will keep your iPhone's battery at 80% for most of the night, finishing off the 
last 20% of charge right before your alarm goes off.  
To use the new features, go to Settings > Battery > Battery Health and turn it 
on. 

2.
Use the new Scroll Bar
When you're scrolling a webpage in Safari, a new Scroll Bar shows up on the 
right side of the screen. Only instead of just being a handy way to see where 
you're at on a page, you can now use it to scroll faster. Try it out by 
starting to scroll on a page, then long-press on the scroll bar and drag it up 
or down. The faster you drag, the faster Safari will scroll.  

3.
Scan documents in the Files app
The revamped Files app now lets you scan documents and save them directly to 
your device or cloud storage with little effort. Open the Files app, select the 
Browse tab, tap on the three-dot icon in the top-right corner, then Scan 
Documents. Hold your device over the document you want to scan, and it should 
automatically capture the page. You can scan multiple pages into one PDF file 
and then save to iCloud, or import it into another app once you're done.  

4.
iMessage search actually works now
Searching for past messages in the iMessage app has always been horrible. It 
simply hasn't worked. That's changed. You can now search for a single word or 
phrase, and results are almost instantly displayed. 
It's pretty cool. To try it, open the Messages app, swipe down to reveal the 
search field and type. Neat, right? 

5.
Search your iPhone with your voice
Anywhere you find a search bar in Apple's own apps, you'll notice there's now a 
microphone on the far-right side. Tap on the new icon to enter your search 
query by voice, instead of having to type it out.  
Apps like Settings, Mail, Messages and the Today View are just a few ex

6.
Share photos with or without location information 
You can now strip location information from a photo when you share it
directly from the Photos app. The new option means you can leave the photo
geotagged and you can view where it was captured, but when you share it
across social media, email or messages, you can strip that information and
keep any location information private.

Yes.
However, filters should be done serverside and not on the client.
I use Gmail on my phone and on multiple devices like Windows 10
laptops and Linux.
I always configure filters and labels serverside which means I always
have the same content in my Inbox and other folders/labels regardless
of which device I use to access my gmail.

On my iPhone I use the Gmail app and on PC I use the gmail web interface.
This email is composed using the web interface which works smoothly
with both Chrome and Firefox.

How to conserve your cellular data use on iPhone and iPad, 9 to 5 Mac

2019-08-26 Thread M. Taylor
How to conserve your cellular data use on iPhone and iPad

While "unlimited" data plans have made a return at many carriers, they still
aren't truly unlimited. When you hit a certain amount of iPhone data use,
you'll like either be throttled or charged for more data. On the other hand,
maybe you only pay for a certain amount of data, and want to avoid going
over.
Either way, there are a few ways in iOS to help conserve your cellular data
use.
 
How to track your iPhone data use
First and foremost, you should know how to see how much data you've used.
While many carriers offer their own respective tools for tracking data
usage, it's often easier to see that information directly on your iPhone, as
seen in the screenshot above.
First open the Settings app, then look for the "Cellular" menu. Here, you
can see a breakdown of which applications have used the most data, and even
disable cellular data for specific applications. For instance, if you see
that an app you rarely used has been using data, you can simply flip the
toggle to prevent it from ever using cellular data again.

Disable Wi-Fi Assist
In many ways, Wi-Fi Assist in iOS is a double edged sword. Apple says that
Wi-Fi Assist is designed to "automatically use cellular data when Wi-Fi
connectivity is poor." Oftentimes, however, you might think you're solely on
Wi-Fi, when actually Wi-Fi Assist has kicked in and you're burning through
your data.
To disable Wi-Fi Assist, go to the Settings app on your iPhone, then choose
"Cellular" and scroll all the way to the bottom. There, you should see a
toggle for Wi-Fi Assist that you can easily turn off.
This should also show you how much data you've used through Wi-Fi Assist. In
my case, I've burned through 404MB of cellular data through Wi-Fi Assist,
which could be quite a lot depending on how much data you're allotted every
month.

Prevent certain features from using cellular data at all
Another easy way to cutback on your cellular data usage is to prevent
traditionally data-heavy features from running at all, unless you're on
WiFi. This entails turning off or limiting certain features.
 
Disable iCloud Drive
1.  Open Settings
2.  Choose "Cellular"
3.  Scroll down and look for "iCloud Drive"
4.  Disable using your cellular network for transferring documents and
data

Turn off App Store downloads
1.  Open Settings
2.  Scroll to "iTunes and App Store"
3.  Look for the "Cellular Data" heading
4.  Disable "Automatic Downloads"
5.  Tap "App Downloads"
6.  Choose "Always Ask"

Disable Apple Music streaming
1.  Open Settings
2.  Scroll to "Music"
3.  Look for the "Cellular Data" menu
4.  Either disable Cellular Data completely, or disable it for
downloading and/or streaming

Disable cellular use for Photos
1.  Open Settings
2.  Scroll to "Photos"
3.  Look for "Cellular Data"
4.  Disabling cellular data completely will restrict updates to Wi-Fi,
including Shared Albums and iCloud Photos
5.  Disable "Unlimited Updates"

Disable Background App Refresh
1.  Open Settings
2.  Choose "General"
3.  Look for the "Background App Refresh" menu
4.  You can either disable Background App Refresh for individual apps,
for all apps in all situations, or limit Background App Refresh to only when
connected to Wi-Fi

Turn off iPhone data use completely
If you've completely burned through almost all of your data for the month,
and you need to ensure that you absolutely don't get charged overage fees,
the best solution is to turn off cellular data completely.
To do this, open Settings and tap "Cellular." Then, simply flip the toggle
next to "Cellular Data." This will completely disable data use, and ensure
you don't go over your cap for the month.

Wrap up
Other ways to preserve data use on iOS include downloading music for offline
listening, using Reading List in Safari to save articles for later, and
avoiding high-intensity things like streaming video while not connecting to
Wi-Fi.

(Settings → your name → iCloud → Keychain)
4.
Now you’ll be able to save and AutoFill passwords on the web and in apps,
look for the prompt at the bottom of your iPhone when tapping on a password
field
Keep in mind if you’re turning on AutoFill/iCloud Keychain for the first
time, you’ll need to save your passwords as you type them in during daily
use. Then upon using them the next time, you’ll be able to use AutoFill for
the saved credentials.

As shown in the far right screenshot above, you can also use third-party
password managers like 1Password with AutoFill or opt to use both iCloud
Keychain and a third-party app.
Read more about how you can use AutoFill in Safari on Apple’s support
document here.

How to delete lists in Reminders on iPhone and iPad, 9 to 5 Mac

How to delete lists in Reminders on iPhone and iPad
By Peter Cao 
 
Apple's Reminders app is decent if you want to quickly form a list for
later. One of the more hidden functions of the app is when you're done with
the list and no longer need it. Follow along to learn how to delete lists in
Reminders on your iPhone or iPad.
How to delete lists in Reminders on iPhone and iPad
1.
Open Reminders and tap on the list you'd like to delete.

2.
Tap on Edit in the top right corner.

3.
Tap Delete List, located near the bottom of the screen.

4.
Confirm that you want to delete this list. Note that this cannot be undone.

The delete button in Reminders isn't in the most obvious place. In addition
to that, the text isn't in bold, and blends in with the rest of the
interface.

How to use Group FaceTime on iPhone and iPad, 9 to 5 Mac

2018-11-01 Thread M. Taylor
9to5Mac - Tuesday, October 30, 2018 at 2:22 PM

How to use Group FaceTime on iPhone and iPad

Group FaceTime has been a long-awaited feature, and now with iOS 12.1, Apple
has rolled it out to all users. Follow along for how to use Group FaceTime
on iPhone and iPad and which iOS devices are compatible with the new
feature.

Whoosh! Screen Cleaner

Group FaceTime is a handy feature that lets users video chat (or just use
audio) with up to 32 people. However, as we discovered earlier this week,
not all devices running iOS 12 will get full Group FaceTime support.
Apple notes that some older devices will only support audio for Group calls.
To use Group FaceTime video calls, you need an iPhone 6s or later, iPad Pro
or later, iPad Air 2, or iPad Mini 4 with iOS 12.1. Earlier models of
iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch that support iOS 12.1 can join Group FaceTime
calls as audio participants.
To use Group FaceTime you’ll need to make sure FaceTime is turned on under
Settings → FaceTime and look for the toggle at the top.

How to use Group FaceTime on iPhone and iPad
1.  Open FaceTime and tap the + icon in the top right corner
2.  Add multiple people
3.  Tap Audio or Video to start the call

Here’s how the process looks:

Once you’ve started the call, you can tap the star icon for effects, while
tapping the three dots will expand full FaceTime options like adding more
people, flipping or turning your camera off, muting your microphone, and
more.

How to start a Group FaceTime call from within an iMessage
1.  Open the message you’d like to start a Group FaceTime call from
2.  Tap the contacts at the top
3.  Tap FaceTime
Visual walkthrough on this option:

To get more details on Group FaceTime, check out Apple’s support page here.

Re: iPhone verses iPad

2018-05-18 Thread Mary Otten
Well, I always use my mini in portrait mode. Same when I had my old iPad 
original version. And no, the mail doesn’t work like it does on the phone. Your 
landscape mode sounds better, because at least you have the message on the 
right side of the screen I guess, based on my understanding of your 
description. I guess I just like it having a list of messages and then I can do 
what I want in there and if I want to read one, I just double tap. I think it 
reminds me of more how I do mail on the PC. Go through the list, see something 
I want, and press insert down arrow in my case to read the message with 
Thunderbird.

This is why I make heavy use of containers on the iPad, especially in the 
settings app.  It makes navigating to the item you have chosen much easier.


I mainly use my iPad for reading books.  Where it makes a difference to me 
as opposed to using my iPhone is when reading Kindle books.  There is a 
noticeable pause when switching pages, so it doesn't seem as intrusive to me 
since with the larger screen, the pauses are less frequent.


All a matter of what works best for the individual.

I have a 2017 referbished iPAD as well as an iPHONE7. Frankly, things are a 
lot more frustrating for me on the iPAD. I find myself strongly gravitating 
to my iPHONE for pretty much everything other than consuming audio or binge 
reading. For instance, it's nice to be able to listen to internet radio 
without burning though my iPOD batteries and taking up my iPHONE. That 
leaves the iPHONE free for other things. However, if I'm working, or want to 
be ready to do other things while listening or reding, I'll use my iPHONE. 
Other than easier use of Braille screen input, I can't think of any 
advantages to using an iPAD other than the headphone jak.


Another thing to keep in mind is that the layouts of a whole lot of apps and 
things are very different as the designers attempt to use the extra space in 
the best way for sighted users. It can feel like starting from square one 
despite using the exact same apps and operating system as on your phone. I'm 
still glad I was able to get the iPAD due to the guide I'm in the process of 
writing. I'll be able to pint all this out and give exaples so my readers 
will hopefully make a more informed decision. I have a lot of spacial 
perceptin issues so that's doubtless a big part of why I so strongly prefer 
my iPHONE's smaller size. The smaller size does force app designers to 
separate apps into different tabs. The Settings app where you configure your 
iOS device is a prime example. The iPAd layout has everything in a tree 
format with branches expanding overtop of things when selected. Everything 
else still remains on the screen. On the iPHONE, the instant you double-tap 
on a setting area, everything else goes away and you can get right to what 
you want. When finished, the "back" button gets you out of where you've 
drilled down into.

  Remember that having an iPhone, iPad and laptop for most people is overkill. 
Sure, it is nice to have all this stuff, but I don’t see any need for an iPad 
in my life, I use my iPhone all the time and the argument that I want phone 
calls interrupting me or that I want to save my iPhone battery to me at least 
don’t make sense. If I am listening to an audio book on an iPad and I get a 
phone call I want to take it interrupts me anyways and in fact if I am 
listening on the iPad I first have to pause the iPad whereas on my iPhone 
whatever is playing pauses automatically when the phone rings and resumes again 
when I’m done. As for battery I just get a new one put in should it gert to the 
point where it doesn’t hold it’s charge any more, it’s a lot cheaper than

Mary,

My experience with mail on the iPad has been similar to yours. In fact
it was the change you mentioned in which a two finger flick up reads a
bunch of stuff before the message that ended my reading of mail on the
iPad. I still don't know why that change was made.

I would also be very interested in hearing how mail can be efficiently
managed on the larger screen.

Re: iPhone verses iPad

2018-05-18 Thread 'RobH.' via VIPhone
Wonder if this is orientation related,  I always do mail, indeed most things on 
the iPad, in landscape mode.  From scratch, I think 
it will open in the default mailbox and in a message, but there's a button in 
the top/left which always points back up a level. 
When I'm at mailboxes, I open the Unread one, and then I have a list down the 
left side column with all unread message threads.  A 
thread will open to a new side list with one message open,  but sidebar of 
message list is still down the left side.  I tend to 
touch middle of the message area, then do a 2-finger flip up to read from the 
top, and then touch the left side again when I've 
heard enough and choose a new message.  I go back to top/left corner for the 
button to back up a level and can flick up on that 
thread and double-tap delete to lose the whole thread, and carry on down other 
unread stuff.  This is how I get through mail on the 
old iPad mini and have done since I first had one.

I hear the mail will work like the phone if you stand it up in portrait mode.

RobH.

RE: iPhone verses iPad

2018-05-17 Thread Alan Lemly
Mary,

I'm like you and am curious why a larger screen without usable vision makes the 
learning curve any different for the mail app. I've never used an iPad but 
others I've spoken with say the larger screen makes things more difficult to 
navigate with Voiceover especially when the screen is split in some apps. I 
hope Merv will respond with some specifics. I guess if you're learning VO 
gestures for the first time and have motor control issues, having a larger 
screen on which to swipe might make things easier.

RE: iPhone verses iPad

2018-05-17 Thread Merv Keck
Hi,
I teach both iPhone and iPad. Email is absolutely fantastic on the larger 
screen. Even with no useable vision. I have helped people who had absolutely no 
experience with computers or iDevices learn to use both their iPhone and iPad. 
And the larger screen makes some applications very easy to learn. Including the 
native mail app. Because it is spread out and there is less of a learning curve 
for older adults when learning IOS for the first time. 
Some games are also very nice on the larger screen even with no useable vision. 
I have seen some amazing things done on the larger amount of real estate.
I can't wait to update my Mini 4 in a month or two to a larger iPad as soon as 
it is eligible.

This is why I make heavy use of containers on the iPad, especially in the 
settings app.  It makes navigating to the item you have chosen much easier.

I mainly use my iPad for reading books.  Where it makes a difference to me as 
opposed to using my iPhone is when reading Kindle books.  There is a noticeable 
pause when switching pages, so it doesn't seem as intrusive to me since with 
the larger screen, the pauses are less frequent.

All a matter of what works best for the individual.

Subject: Re: IPhone versess IPad

I have a 2017 referbished iPAD as well as an iPHONE7. Frankly, things are a lot 
more frustrating for me on the iPAD. I find myself strongly gravitating to my 
iPHONE for pretty much everything other than consuming audio or binge reading. 
For instance, it's nice to be able to listen to internet radio without burning 
though my iPOD batteries and taking up my iPHONE. That leaves the iPHONE free 
for other things. However, if I'm working, or want to be ready to do other 
things while listening or reding, I'll use my iPHONE. Other than easier use of 
Braille screen input, I can't think of any advantages to using an iPAD other 
than the headphone jak.

Another thing to keep in mind is that the layouts of a whole lot of apps and 
things are very different as the designers attempt to use the extra space in 
the best way for sighted users. It can feel like starting from square one 
despite using the exact same apps and operating system as on your phone. I'm 
still glad I was able to get the iPAD due to the guide I'm in the process of 
writing. I'll be able to pint all this out and give exaples so my readers will 
hopefully make a more informed decision. I have a lot of spacial perceptin 
issues so that's doubtless a big part of why I so strongly prefer my iPHONE's 
smaller size. The smaller size does force app designers to separate apps into 
different tabs. The Settings app where you configure your iOS device is a prime 
example. The iPAd layout has everything in a tree format with branches 
expanding overtop of things when selected. Everything else still remains on the 
screen. On the iPHONE, the instant you double-tap on a setting area, everything 
else goes away and you can get right to what you want. When finished, the 
"back" button gets you out of where you've drilled down into.

Remember that having an iPhone, iPad and laptop for most people is overkill. 
Sure, it is nice to have all this stuff, but I don’t see any need for an iPad 
in my life, I use my iPhone all the time and the argument that I want phone 
calls interrupting me or that I want to save my iPhone battery to me at least 
don’t make sense. If I am listening to an audio book on an iPad and I get a 
phone call I want to take it interrupts me anyways and in fact if I am 
listening on the iPad I first have to pause the iPad whereas on my iPhone 
whatever is playing pauses automatically when the phone rings and resumes again 
when I’m done. As for battery I just get a new one put in should it gert to the 
point where it doesn’t hold it’s charge any more, it’s a lot cheaper than 
spending $500 or more on an Ipad. If I am travelling there isn’t that much I 
can’t do on my iPhone compared to an iPad. I can see that if you use braille 
input the large iPad might be good, but if I really want to be able to type a 
lot I can just bring a bluetooth keyboard and use my iPhone. Some people also 
make the point about sound quality being bertter on an iPad and that is 
probably true due to it’s larger speakers which can be further apart, but you 
can just as easily use a bluetooth speaker if you want good sound quality. This 
has the added benefit that you can get one that is waterproof so if like me you 
listen to a lot of audio books you can bring it into the shower or outside etc. 
I am doing a fair bit of work outside right now getting my garden and yard into 
shape after a long and very snowy winter and I also do some woodworking either 
in my shop downstairs or outside and I can just have my iPhone in a safe spot 
in my belt case or put somewhere nearby and use my very tough dust and 
waterproof bluetooth speaker. If I am using any woodworking power tools which 
are noisy I wear ear protection anyways and I have a set of ear protection 
which have bluetooth as wel as a built-in FM radio so I can listen to the radio 
or my book or music on my iPhone. If you buy an iPad it’s another expensive 
device which you have to maintain and upgrade every 3 to 5 years, it won’t 
replace your iPhone so now you have to maintain and upgrade two devices. I also 
have an Apple Watch which I like because of the fitness/health application and 
to me that is more useful than an iPad and as it’s a piece of technology which 
also has a finite time before it needs to be upgraded, if you now have an 
iPhone, iPad and Apple Watch then things are starting to get really expensive.
