Text Detective worked great the first time I used it. Now, each time I try using it, I get the "Evaluating" message, followed rather quickly by a constant repeat of the messagee "zero results." I've tried rescanning at different hights, under different lighting conditions--nothing seems to help. I've also been sure to make certain that "portrate lock" is disabled. I'm not sure how to fix this. Any help is much appreciated.
Thanks,

The recent announcements concerning iPad OS have got me thinking about doing word processing on the iPhone or iPad. I am perfectly happy with doing word processing on my Mac but I'm trying to figure out how to practically do it in IOS. I don't really need to do it in IOS but I suppose it just bugs me that I can't figure out how to do it. After all, it might come in handy some time.

Hi all. I deleted an accout from the accounts tab in settings. Then when I added it again, to update the password, I get "This account has already been added to this iPhone." So how do I fix this? It's fine on my Mac. Thanks for the help.

Hello,
I'm wondering if anyone else is having trouble with the latest youtube update. WHen I click on the subscriptions tab at the bottom, all I get is a list of channels youtube thinks I might be interested in subscribing to. I'v'e clicked around and can't figure out any easy way to bring up my channels.
This problem is happening on both an iPhone and an iPad.
Any ideas?
Thanks

I have an iPhone 12 plus and in the last few days the mail app on iOS is not reading properly. When I try to swipe through my mail it’s not reading it properly it’s not allowing me to delete or open the mail easily. Does anyone know of this problem and how to fix it I use voiceover when going through my mail. It’s like the columns or organizational way it was set up prior is not reading like it used to and not aligning properly if that makes any sense let me know if anyone else is having this problem and how can we fix it

Hi all, since upgrading to iOS 10.2, on opening an email, instead of skipping directly to the message text, VoiceOver reads out headers such as the sender's address, date, subject, etc. One has to either swipe several times to the right or place the finger at the centre of the screen and hope to get to the beginning of the message. This worked fine prior to the 10.2 upgrade, and hasn't been fixed in 10.2.1. Also, the preview no longer works. Although my preview is set to five lines, VoiceOver does not read out a single line in the preview mode.

I have an iPhone 15+ which I got about two weeks ago. Since updating iOS 17.2. My Two finger swipe right and left gestures only register about half the time the other times they register as one finger swipe left and right. This is not happening with any other gestures just these two. I have reassigned the gestures several times to a few different actions and it does not matter what action they are set to I have the same problem.
I’m wondering if anyone is having the same problem and if so, are there any workarounds?

I recently started having a problem with the updates tab within the App Store. I don't recall doing anything out of the ordinary, but one day, I went into updates to download the latest available updates, as I have automatic updates turned off, and when I selected to download the updates, I saw the message "connecting," but there was no percentage progress report. I know it wasn't my wifi connection, as I was able to continue working with other apps and access online content in the meantime.

Hello everyone. I hope everything is going well. I want to share feedback that I sent two months ago when the translation with the action button feature was released.
When you translate something and want to close the pop-up, it simply doesn't work. Additionally, I have encountered issues with taking screenshots and using direct touch. Apple Accessibility has acknowledged experiencing the same problems and reported them for further review. However, after 2-3 months, nothing has been resolved yet. And; i'm using ios 17.4.

Hi, I am using IOS8 and on the Today view in the notification center, I have the weather widget displayed for the stock weather app but I can't hear any weather stats when I navigate to it. It says something like weather from weather.com. I would like to be able to view the weather in the notification center. Can anyone recommend any weather apps that provide an accessible widget for the notification center

Hello.
Has anybody used the Webex platform? This is a platform similar to zoom and teams which i can use no problem, but Webex app is very laggy with voice over to the point that i can’t use it because Voice over is so slow to read what is on the screen? Is this just me? I am using an ipad on ios 12. Whilst i can phone in to these meetings, it makes it hard to use the chat feature or any of the other functions that come with using the app itself.
Thanks for your help :)

Hi all! I am having issues with touch ID. I just got a new iPhone 7 last week. When I create a fingerprint, it does work, but I can go to unlock the phone one time and it won't let me. I try the 5 times it lets you and it makes me enter my pass code. Then I can try the next time, or lock my phone when it acts up before it has been done 5 times, and do it, and it will work that time. So for now I have it disabled. It is just inconsistent as to weather or not it'll work, it's just weird! My question is, should I talk to Apple about this?

Hi there to everyone.
I’m having a strange issue which I haven’t encountered before and I’m not sure when it actually started doing it. When I’m on a call using the earpiece of my iPhone 12 mini not the speaker. For some reason I cannot seem to turn the volume up or down, and I have got into settings And made sure that under sound and haptics is set so the buttons option is switched on for the volume ringer.. I’m just wondering if anyone knows why suddenly the buttons don’t work when using the earpiece of the phone to turn the volume up and down.

Last week, VizWiz stopped working for me. The app won't even open. I find it in my app list, double tap like I do all other apps, and it does not open. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling the app, rebooting my phone (several times), and so far nothing has worked. I'm using an iPhone 4S. I've downloaded Omoby, but Omoby isn't nearly as powerful as VizWiz. Has anyone else hade this issue with VizWiz, and if so is there a fix? I've found it to be quite useful, and I'm hoping to be able to use it again at some point.

Hi all I have noticed over the last month that voice over seems to be crashing. This happens when I exit apps using the home key. There are still sounds because when I turn the rotor I can here sounds. The only way to get voice over to work again is to turn it of with the home key triple click and back on again using the same method. I am using an iphone 5s with ios version 8.1.1 [12B435] Just wondering if any one is having this problem. I feel it is crashing less after the recent update but it is still doing it. Many thanks Joe

Hi, I have an iPhone 5 and have noticed the following problems with voiceover and was curious if others are experiencing the same problems... I haven't upgraded to ios 9 because ever since ios 7, voiceover functions seemed to be getting worse with each update... Unfortunately my phone got upgraded to ios 8 when I sent it to apple for the iPhone 5 sleep/lock button recall. Now I have so many problems.

Hi all,
I use iPhone 5s with the newest iOS installed and the Polish language set as default. I’ve noticed that VO has suddenly switched pronunciation of certain items e.g. app store, bluetooth, etc. It still speaks Polish but I can’t deal with this matter. I have set Polish as default and don’t know what else I can do. I’ve restored my device to factory settings but after some time the same has happened.
Please give me a hint what I can do.
Warm greetings and thanks in advance for your help.

Hello.
I am using Fred for the english us voice. I have it set to that. My iPad is in swedish. The problem I am having is that if I use an app in US english I can do that, but if I tap things like the status bar or go out of the app the voice goes back to another one.
Is there a way to fix this?
