Hi all, Verizon announced that it will start offering wifi calling today, but only on 2 Samsung phones. We’ll have to wait until iOS 9.2 is released, or that’s my theory anyway, until iOS users can use the feature. Here is the link to the verizon page. http://www.verizonwireless.com/news/articl

Hi, The unlock sound has been gone since iOS 7. I’m not sure how you’re hearing that unless you’re jailbroken and have installed a tweak to bring that back. > On Oct 22, 2015, at 11:27 PM, 'Ray T. Mahorney' via VIPhone > wrote: > > following on the discussion of this I get the announcement wi

Re: A Quick Word On Beta Testing

Hi, I think everyone’s missing the point here. Apple’s accessibility team is not just focusing on VoiceOver, they’re focusing on an entire set of features, covering different disabilities. Furthermore, they’ve now got 4 operating systems to focus on, rather than 2. None of the bugs mentioned in

Re: A Quick Word On Beta Testing

I do a lot of email on my phone, as well as answer calls, and I’m not seeing the freezing issue, so perhaps it’s a case-by-case basis, which could make the bug harder to track down and fix. Keep reporting it to Apple accessibility. > On Oct 23, 2015, at 9:15 PM, englishride...@gmail.com wrote: >

Re: Another Small Bug that May Be Related to the Loss of Automatic Time Announcement in iOS 9.1

Hi Sieghard, That’s interesting, I get no unlock sound when I unlock either with my fingerprint, or by entering my passcode. In fact, I believe the sound you’re hearing is the VoiceOver sound for when a screen changes, which in my use, doesn’t always play either, depending on how fast the phone

Re: Apple ID verification prompt asking for 2FA recovery key?

Hi Alex, Perhaps they’re starting the process of letting people sign up for 2-factor authentication, which is different from the current 2-step authentication they have in place now. 2-factor authentication does away with recovery keys, and changes the codes you need to enter when signing into
