I use wired Apple Earpods almost exclusively with my iPhone 8 running iOS 12.4

Hi All,
Firstly, apologies for the cross post.
As some of you may know, the “LookTel” apps have not been available on the App
Store for a few weeks now.
My sincerest apologies for the silence on this. I have not had any info I could

As of now, the apps that were there will be back. I
You can do that by changing VoiceOver’s sounds. Go to Settings, General,

to select it. Go back to the Home screen, and use the VoiceOver rotor and turn
to “volume," and flick up with one finger to raise the volume,

You should have the setting to control sound volume with buttons. It's a little

Now, it's time to leave the list and get to work.

Why the need for the extra step to get Seeri to recognize someone in my contact
folder? I always used to simply say text and the name of the person, and almost
always only used a first name. That worked. Using Seeri to make calls has been
far less reliable. I guess I'll have to do the

Hello Fuzzel,
You will have to go to the profile menu in the top left hand corner of the app,
double tap, navigate down to settings, and find the privacy options in the
settings menu. You then will toggle on/off any of the options you would or
would not like to be active.
I hope this helps.
Hello Deidre,
Once you contact Miles, if you go to Siri settings and go to the shortcuts
section, you should see a shortcut to contact him. You can assign a phrase to
that shortcut like, "Call Miles," and use it to contact him in the future.
Have you deleted and reinstalled TuneIn yet? sounds

Yes, you can add or remove all kinds of things from the rotor other than

I remember now, that what you wrote, is how to remove a

I thought I'd done the double tap and hold to reorder things

For quite a while now, the way to remove a favorite is to open it and double
tap on the unfavorite button, or deselecting the favorite button.
To rearrange favorites is not documented, but I found a slightly tedious way to
do it.
You double tap and hold on a favorite, and slide up or down in

Yes. It sounds like you did it correctly, but Apple was behind in having it
realize you had updated.
I've seen this kind of thing before where you did the update, then told there

I just power off and back on when that happens and it clears it up.
