iOS and iPadOS

Post Date:

We've been working on a voice driven app for online shopping that reads back search results, product information,  and reviews. You can search for and purchase items entirely in audio. The experience is built from the ground up for non-visual users, and is designed to be more comfortable and streamlined than navigating a visual app with a screen reader.

The website for our project is sayapps.com.

Hi everybody!

I have an interesting problem I hope somebody can help me solve.

Even though I have call recording turned off in settings, when ever I place a call, I hear voice over tell me that call recording has started!

1. How do I stop this?
2. Where are the recordings so I can go and delete them?

Thanks for any advice offered, I appreciate it very much.

Hi all,

I am in a desperate need to make recordings of my conversations on an ongoing basis. I am using IPhone 6 with 9.2. Please help. While, I have found some options for the same, I am looking for an accessible solution that can do it automatically in the background.

Thank you.

Hi, does iOS have a call screen feature like pixel phones do where Siri can screen your calls for you? If not Apple needs to add this.

Post Date:

anyone else have issues with call screening? I honestly think apple needs to make a more reliable way of doing this. Firstly, I miss calls that may or may not be important. Secondly, when my phone screens a call, the only way you're gunna get that notification is if you're right next to the phone and you are paying attention. Even then, never mind you being able to answer the call because you try and pick up the phone but can't get to it, either because the screening didn't go through or some other mishap. am I the only one who's having these issues?

I hear this when calls end on my iPhone under iOS 13. I also hear it repeatedly in voice mails, sometimes to the point I cannot hear the voice mail. Is Voiceover speaking this? I would sure love to resolve this.

Hello,
I have a 5s running ios9.1. I just started having an issue where my caller id is announcing a contact as if it weren't even added. For example let's say I have a contact named John doe, well since I do have that contact in my phone whenever John doe would call vo should say "John doe" instead vo will speak the full number, and when swiping through the caller id screen vo would announce the location as if the contact wasn't even added. I rebooted my phone and still doing it. Any ideas?

Hi,
I am doing two blogs, one for one of my classes and one that is more personal.
I write my posts in Pages and copy and paste them into Blogger. I use the tab key to indicate new paragraphs after I make a "new line."
However, when I paste the text into Blogger, it is displayed as one, big paragraph, and VoiceOver interprets it as a single element. I would like to be able to break the posts up into paragraphs so that VO can flick from one to the other.
How do I do this in Blogger?
Thanks in Advance,
Kira

Hi AppleVis ,

My name is Chris Maury, I've been an AppleVis member for about a year now; ever since I found out that I was losing my vision to Stargardt's macular degeneration. Over the last year I've started an accessibility meet up for people with disabilities and people who work on accessibility here in Pittsburgh. I've also started training seniors who are losing their vision on how to take advantage of the accessibility features on Apple Products.

Hello
I don’t know about you Americans, but in Australia, we have this app called Officeworks. You have everything here. Laptops, chrome books, phones, and tablets. Drones, drones, accessories, and speakers, headphones, chips, lollies, paper and paint. You name it, they have it all. The only thing I don’t have is, Weapons, but I’m sure you can do with that.

Hello,
I know this has been discussed previously including prior iOS versions. I have an iPhone 11 with iOS 15.6. I have noticed that calls sometimes don't come through with the ringtone. I get the notification only that I have a missed call. I am using voiceOver. The focus/do not disturb mode is not on, and my phone is not on silent. Has anybody else noticed this?

Post Date:

Hi,

Has anyone else noticed that calls sound different in iOS 8.3? They sound similar to a facetime audio call, but the reception isn't very good. I'm using an iPhone 6.

Thanks!

Hi,
I don't know if this is a repeated forum, and if it is I apologize.
During a call when I have my Iphone five away from my face to use VoiceOver the call will not switch to speaker like it used to. This is sometimes useful, but it also makes it harder to hear VoiceOver when I need it.
Is there any way to turn this feature on? Any suggestions you have are really appreciated.
Thanks in advance

Hi all,

 

so whenever I see someone on here recommend a calory counting app, it seems that it is either primarily or only for the US, which means it either does not exist in the UK app store, or has primarily US brands.

Can anyone recommend an accessible, UK based calory counting app? doesn't matter if it's free or paid.

 

Thanks.

H Hi everyone,

My name is Steve Johnson and I’m a severely sight-impaired iPhone user. I’m excited to share my first iOS app: Black Lens, now available on the App Store.

Black Lens was born from a problem I’ve had for years: I love getting outdoors, but taking selfies or photos in bright sunlight was almost impossible for me. With very limited vision and a washed-out screen, I could never tell if I was in the frame.

So I decided to build the app I needed myself.

Hello,

I have an iPhone 16 pro and IOS is up to date.

I have set my camera control button to open the camera app when being pressed once. However, this does not seem to work when voiceover is switched on. When pressing the button, it seems that the cursor simply jumps to the first item on the current screen. When however I switch off voiceover, then the camera control button works as expected. What might be the issue?

Post Date:

Did anyone else update to the latest version of seeing AI and found it broke the camera? I was reading the app reviews and did find that someone else was having issues with it as well. The camera is taking forever to detect anything. When I'm in the product mode in previous versions I had no problem getting the audible beep when getting close to the barcode, in fact I found it pretty quickly, while it would tell me sometimes it couldn't recognize the barcode and I had to scan again, this time it isn't even finding it.
