Hi All,
Using an SE iPhone with iOS 10.33. I need to distinguish between a red &
green L E D light on a wireless headset charging stand. Are there any known
apps that will distinguish the colors of L E D's? If so, would please
inform me of which ones? Thank y'all very much.
Take care. Mike
Mary, I have to admit, until now, I had not tried to read anything in iBooks.
It seems less accessible than it used to be.
I managed to highlight a couple lines, but then what?
Other than using the VoiceOver command to copy the last segment of text spoken,
it seems pretty useless.

The upgrade screen opens automatically when you attempt to make that fourth
recording thus exceeding the free limit of three. I went ahead and upgraded
paying the $4.99 price.

If you don't keep more than 3 recordings on your device, there is no charge.

I just wrote the Just Press Record support to ask about changing the two finger

Perhaps you could do the same?
That would be a good change so one did not have to find the pause button and

I think it limits you to 3. To be honest I really wasn't paying attention as I

purchased the app.

Just Press Record, which is $4.99 is also a very good app. It tries to do
transcriptions if you want.
It saves to iCloud Drive or on your device.
Like all recording apps that I know of, the length is dependent on how much
room you have on your storage device.

I thought the Play:1's were down to $149.00 and the Sonos One's that come

It limits the number of recordings, then requires you to make a purchase at
