I have this great idea to improve the phone function for those who want to voice text while using the phone at the exact same time one of the problems that we come across is that when you’re on the phone with someone you want to text another person or the person you’re talking to either on FaceTime FaceTime audio or even just regular phone is that it does not have the ability to use the microphone to voice text at the same time.

Hey guys,
I’m having a really annoying issue with my series 5 on Watch OS 6.1.1. It’s a known issue that Apple is working on. Wondering if others are experiencing this, and if any workarounds.
I have 2 sets of wireless earbuds. Both function as they should. No issues when connected to phone. Also no issues when connected to watch, unless I initiate a call. When I make a call on Watch, call disconnects from buds and continues from Watch speaker. When call ends, buds reconnect.
Are you experiencing this? Have you found way to keep buds connected?
Thanks,
JP

Hi, I'm an iPhone owner for the first time as of a week and a half ago. I've had an iPod Touch for two years so I'm very familiar with iOS and how it works already, but there's one thing I can't figure out on my phone. (iPhone 4S) When I'm on a call and take the phone from my ear, it switches to speaker mode. Every other iPhone owner I've asked says this doesn't happen with their device. Is this a feature when using VoiceOver or something? Is there a way to change that setting? Thanks in advance for any help AJ

Hi! I’m getting an iPad soon (not sure which model yet), and was wondering if anyone had any keyboard recommendations (without a trackpad). Which one is most comfortable to type in and has the most buttons, and what model do you have? Also, what is the web browsing experience like? Any problems I should be aware of?

Now that iOS 16.3 allows the use of PSK. Can someone tell us what is all about it? Is that accessible? Can it be use in iPad also and which would be the best one to get.

Any recommendations of a physical button that allows you to click apps?

I’d like for example to press the button, and this would click the “Next “ button while in the YouTube app to advance to the next video.

I did a quick web search and found a couple buttons, like this one:

Any recommendations or suggestions appreciated. Thanks

Hello Everyone,

I'm a longtime reader, but this is my first post as a new member.

I am looking at buying my first iPhone. Most likely, it will be an SE, only 32GB. Is that enough memory, or do I have to purchase the 128GB version?

Thanks in advance for your help.

It's my first upgrade, and my phone carrier is giving me a choice between the XR and the SE 2020 if I want a rebate, which I absolutely need, so it's either one or the other. I really want to try a phone with no home button, and I have heard such a bad rap about the SE's poor battery life, but I have also heard from others that it's OK. I have tried to find articles that compare both phones but can't find anything, and I want to make the best choice. It struck me that in two years the XR will be pretty old, but I guess so is my 8+ now and it's still doing OK.

I am looking for recommendations on a good scanner. I am running Catalina and it looks like my Cano Scan LIDE 110 isn’t going to work anymore. I am using docuscan for my ocr.
Thanks for any ideas!

Hi to all, I ould like to read your opinions on Iphone bluetooth keyboard.

I want to get one soon, but at first I need to hear more information about the device.

 I want a keyboard which would fit into my, pocket so I can take it anywhere and of course it must be accessible and easy to write.

I am looking forward to hearing your comments.

Hello all,
please, would anyone recommend Voiceover accessible, single bluetooth headset/earpiece that supports instant, seamless switching between Iphone and Apple watch without having to switch the headset off/on each time I want to use either of the devices?
As far as I know, there is Plantronics Voyager Edge which has this feature, but I'm just wondering if there are other models except apple airpods with this feature available.
Thanks for your help.

Hello All,
I've acquired the Sennheiser Ambio Smart Headset, and the Zoom IQ7 Multi-pattern mic for iPhone.
My thought is to use it to record concerts from several sepret folk groups that I play in.
I have used both, plus the Sure MV88, one at a time.
Sometimes set to mid-side or XY depending on roomed acoustics, and while the mid-side does give me a much grater degree of control over imaging, using the Sennheiser on an additional 2 channels as binaural omni's, will add an extra sence of depth.

Hi, is there a podcast on how to use a Bluetooth keyboard with an I phone? Thanks for your help

Hi, i have recently purchased the iphone 4 and am now on the lookout for a bluetooth keyboard. I am looking for one that would be portable, that you can stick in a bag or pocket, but not sure if there are any models in particular that work better with voice over. Any suggestions most welcome!

Hi everyone so I’m not sure if this is the right part of the forum to post to soon so if it’s not I’m sorry but does anybody know of a good Bluetooth speaker that’s portable that has Alexa built into it and where you can route voiceover to the phone instead of the speaker itself

For use with my iphone, wish for a small blue-tooth keyboard. I heard of a keyboard that folds up? Please detail ease of use - easy to pack & connect To i phone. Appreciate comments pro & con. Many thanks

Hello, I have a sonos roam, the latest speaker produced by Sonos inc.
It's my favourite: portable, versatile, good quality sound, mobile app accessibility, voice assistants and many audio services available. It could be the best wi-fi -sonos and airplay2-, and Bluetooth combo.
But, there is a but.
When I am in Bluetooth connection out of my wi-fi network, music plays properly but VoiceOver goes to maximum volume making it almost unusable.
The volume increases only when I have music playing, but not while it's paused.

I am not sure if this is a bug, and I do not want to report it until I see some feedback here.
Since iOS 17, and I'm up to 17.3 now, my hearing aids have randomly come either disconnected or unpaired. I'll use them a few days, and then suddenly, they are not connected.
When I look under accessibility/hearing devices, it still shows my aids and says they are not connected, but the full screen with its settings does not appear, nor does the "forget this device" button appear.
