iOS and iPadOS

Hi,

When sending audio from my iPhone 12 pro to airplay devices such as my Linn Majik amp or Samsung TV, Voiceover speech also is heard on these devices. This didn't happen I"m sure when I used IOS13 with my old iPhone 10X Max.
I've checked that audio ducking is on as I read this could cause issues such as this.

Is this a bug with IOS14 or have I missed another setting somewhere?

Any help or advice greatfully received.

Kind regards

Graham

Hello and does anyone have any advice on how to use the kindle app? I tried and it plays just fine, but can't figure out how to get it to stop or pause or anything else. I have an Ipod 5th gen. Any help would be appreciated.

I'm using an iPod 6 with the latest version of iOS. I'm also using a Braille Sense U2 as my braille display and keyboard input device.

The problem I'm having is that when I am in an edit field, such as the message body of an E-mail or in a password field, I can't seem to input text unless I do a single-finger double tap several times on the iPod. This moves me back and forth between the start insertion point and the end insertion point. Once I do this, I can enter text. is there anything I can do to make this a smoother process?

I have noticed a strange issue with the iPod touch fifth generation behaving strangely.
I've been noticing that when powering down my iPod touch fifth generation, waiting for a few minutes after powering it down, then powering it back up, VoiceOver comes on, says the time and then reports that it's muted.
How is VoiceOver muted if I hear it speaking?

A stupid question perhaps - but didnʻt find an answer:

does iPod Nano work with BARD Mobile app?
Or can I somehow transfer the BARD books to it?
Also does Overdrive for Libraries work with it?

Can I please ask iPod users a question? I don't own an iPod but a couple of blind friends acquired one and they are having trouble bookmarking the talking-books they are reading. I don't know how to help them. They are also asking me for a manual in some format they can read. Can someone enlighten us? Thanks so very much... Maria.

I've noticed lately, when I acquire an app, or try to, that it will start to install, and then a screen will appear telling me I need to update to iOS 7 first.

My iPOD Touch 4G can't update to iOS 7. At first, I thought this was only an issue for new apps that had never been designed to be compatible with iOS 6, but I've noticed that even when I try to get some old app that worked on iOS 6 before, like GarageBand, that iOS7 is now required.

Dear Friends I have recently updated my iPod Touch 4G to IOS 6 and to my wonder, the option we had in voiceover settings to enable compact or premium voice is gone and I am all with Semantha Compact. Please help if there is any way I can return it back to my iPod because I am used to it a lot. Thanks

Hi All I recently purchased an iPod Touch 4TH Gen which is generally working fine, except for Safari. It allows me to brows about three or so pages at a time before crashing and rebooting the iPod. If anyone else has experienced this problem and knows of a work around, I'd really like to hear from you. Many thanks. Debbie

I will be purchasing an iPod touch and a MacBook soon. Are there any podcasts that demonstrate the use of these products that I should be aware of? I am using David Woodbridge's Mac tutorial. I am not aware of any iPod Touch tutorials.

hi all,

I have the latest iPod touch 128gb version.

my question to you all is this can i get an app that will allow me to place files directly on my iPod as if it had an SD card inside it? or would I have to jail brake my iPod to do this?

your help with this question would be most welcome, kind regards trey.

how do I change the voiceover voice to an Irish accent? I am able to change it to the Australian accent but when I try Irish I get the British Daniel voice.

I am a blind IPhone user and have installed IOS 12 on my 6S+ device. I downloaded and selected the new Irish voices, for SIRI and Voiceover use and, in general, am very happy with them.

The only issue occurs when they read a monetary amount, in my case, Pounds Sterling. When I use a UK voice, it says, for a £50.99 amount, "Fifty Pounds and Ninety Nine pence." When I use the Irish voices, they say "Fifty dot 9 9 British Poundsies."

I have already reported this bug to [email protected]

Hello All

I am AN android user switched to iPhone, I have one doubt in voiceover is there any dedicated back gesture afor voiceover screen reader. I am not talking about escape gesture that is two finger scrub. This gesture isl not working in every Time. If I want to go back to the previous webpage in a browser this escape gesture is not working there. I am talking about a dedicated back gesture for example in talk back we have a dedicated bag gesture swipe down and then left it will work in all the applications. Gg

Got the latest update for this app yesterday. This morning, when you go into your plan for the day from the coach tab, you can’t see any of the options for your work out for the day. It just says the usual thing about complete one of these to take off your activity for the day, You flick right once and it goes to the browse all work out button and then the close button. Have tried moving my finger around the screen which often works in the more fiddly parts of the app, but no luck.

Hello
I am using the native notes app and often use split view or slide over on my iPad.
I am experienceing a problem that when I click the note text field, using keyboardd or finger, and on keyboard, wich is what I prefer, it just says quick nav on and then enters the edit field, however after that it says quicknav on and I am not sure if it was even in editing mode.
I have nine hundraed diary entries in this app and don’t want to switch but I may have no choice. When clicking the note it disappears but when using the app in normal mode it shows the way it should.

Hi is anyone experiencing issues with Pandora with voiceover not working when flicking your stations in my collection? I've googled it and no one else has seemed to have a problem from what I can see. How do you work around this and how do you contact Pandora to get this resolved?
