Hi. To play udio Run you also need to use headphones and have voice-over off. You listen for the traffic and environmental sounds to completely go silent and the runner’s heart beat to be the only thing you hear. Then you tap the screen. He either jumps to another roof top or falls off. God

siri making phone calls

2014-02-13 Thread Paul and Paula Jordan
Hi everyone. Another strange Siri phone call behavior to report. Sometimes when my husband tries to make a call using siri, Siri leaves off the last digit. For example, if he asks Siri to call 775-0200 Siri will say calling 775-002. Very strange. God bless! Paula and Babe -- You received

Hi, Keith and others. I, too, have the same problem with MBraille. I’m running IOS 7.04 on an IPhone 4S. It seems like I have to turn my phone off and on again a couple of times a week. It’s a bit frustrating, but doable. I’m hoping that when I upgrade to a 5S the problem will be solved

I have an IPhone 4S right now without a case. However, when I feel the need for a case I use an old victor reader stream case. That allows me to clip it on my belt or somewhere. I like being able to do that when I'm going around the house reading an NLS book. The phone fits reasonably well in

Hi, all. Is the six sense shooting game you refer to the Doodle six sense. It doesn't make any sense to me if that's the right one. I can't figure out how to play. I've looked in the app store and have found a bunch of six sense technology stuff, but no other games. Maybe I just didn't look
