Hello,
I have an early 2015 MacBookPro, which sadly, isn’t supported by Ventura. I was looking forward to beta testing that, as some areas have changed, according to what I read on the subject. I also have an iPhone SE, second generation and it’s going strong. I beta test iOS 16. I have an account for the Apple Developer Program, just for testing the most buggy beta releases. There are things I love about iOS 16, but I cannot say most of what I like about it, do to the non-disclosure agreement I read and signed. But, as made public by AppleVis, I love Eloquence! It’s an awesome beta, and I cannot wait ‘till it is public, as then, everything can be shared. On Aug 7, 2022, at 5:29 PM, Richard Turner <richardr_tur...@comcast.net> wrote:
As for card games that do not require an internet connection, try: King's Corner, $0.99 byBitpress, LLC And Cribbage Pro, I'll have to look up the developer and add it to my web site.

Hello Everyone,
Just wanted to check in with everyone and wish you all a happy Apple
accessibility summer. I cannot believe that August 2022 is already
underway.
You know, it's kind of funny, I use my Apple devices more and more and yet I
have less and less to say about them as they continue to get better and
better. (smile)
A few things that I have been intending to post but have not:
1.
In addition to my wired EarPods, I now use both AirPods, third gen, and
Airpods Pro, on a regular basis. While I would have to say that my Airpods
Pro offer better sound quality, I like the Airpods third gen, because they
offer an easier / lighter listening experience. I know that sounds crazy
but, for me, it is true.
2.
My poor old 8 Plus is truly on its last legs. The lightening port can no
longer hold a cable, unassisted. This is to say, in order for me to keep a
cable inserted, the phone must be on a horizontal plain or the cable will
fall out. I do use a wireless charger with it but . I am going to try to
make it last until the next iPhone release which, hopefully, will offer some
form of touch ID. However, If touch ID is not included in the next release
I will either purchase the biggest best new phone or I will get an S E. One
way or another, my beloved 8 Plus is on its way out (smile.)
3.
My iPad 10.5 2017 is going strong; it runs like a champ. However, I am
definitely going to get a new MacBook Pro after I purchase my next iPhone.
I have a MacBook Air, M1, in the house but I really don't like the fact that
it automatically powers on at the touch of any key. This is quite annoying.
4.
As for software? I find that I am using fewer and fewer apps. I am not
sure why.
All of the apps that allow me to easily manage my finances continue to be my
favorite apps, of course. However the Amazon apps continue to be at the top
of my must have list. I noticed some kind of a glitch between VoiceOver and
Alexa on an iPhone 11, the other day. Interesting as this glitch does not
occur on my beloved 8 Plus. My solution? Delete and then reinstall the
Alexa app.
Pill Reminder, My Chart, CA Lottery, and Yelp also head-up my favorite apps
list, these days. Of course, I am omitting all of the native Apple apps as
their significance to my accessible life is unparalleled
While I continue to be a big fan of Twitter, for some reason, the app, and
the service itself, for that matter, feel less streamline and unencumbered,
these days. Just my opinion, of course.
Uber, Lift, and Insta Cart are amazing, as always.
And of course, all of the book reading apps remain dear to my heart.
While I would love to list some games that I enjoy on either iOS or iPad OS,
alas, I cannot. I do not know of any onboard (not requiring an internet
connection) VoiceOver accessible card games and / or board games; a sad
reality, to be sure.
All replies to this post are welcome and, in fact, greatly appreciated.
I hope this finds you all happy and well.
Mark
