iOS and iPadOS

On at least two occasions recently since updating to 16 version of iOS. Events have been deleted automatically from the calendar, on family sharing, without the person who is alleged to have deleted it knowing anything about it. Anybody else had this problem.

Is this possible with the SE2020? see this link. https://techcrunch.com/2020/12/03/iphones-can-now-automatically-recognize-and-label-buttons-and-ui-features-for-blind-users/

Hi,
I use voice control to call my contacts. I can’t use siri as it does not support Polish. Recently, voice control language changes automatically from English into Polish. After that change, I have to go to settings/accessibility/home button and set Polish as default again. Do you have any reasoning for that and how to handle this?
Thank you for your support.

Hi,

I'm German and use German Voice-Over on my iPhone. If I switch the language to English for some apps it often switches back to German and I have to switch back to English with the rotor again. I turned on auto-langauge-switchting. It's not working great. Just in Safari if the websites tagged correctly.

I just got an M1 MacBook Air and auto-language-switching works like a charm. Even on smaller text blocks. Even on mixed texts, that are not tagged.

Is there a macro software that can take action when headset/headphones are plugged in, unplugged, blue tooth device connected/unconnected battery above or below set percent or anything else like this. My goal is to have things changed on the phone when headset is connected or disconnected like ring tone being used message alert tone etc.

Since updating to iOS 10 on my iPhone 6, I have noticed that often when reading an article in the News app or when browsing through titles of articles the News app will suddenly seem to refresh itself. The app makes the noise indicating that a refresh or update has occurred and then my place is temporarily lost and I have to find my place in the article or list of articles again.

Just wondering if this is an iOS 10 bug or not and if anyone else is seeing this.

Has it been or should it be reported?

Thanks.

Hi,
Is it possible to have an icon on the home screen that when you double tap it, a two minute timer starts?

Thanks.

Are there any accessible apps that will read your Twitter stream automatically?

I already use TheSocialRadio, though it doesn't read the most recent iteration of quoting tweets accurately even since the latest update.

I am looking for an app that can read your entire Timeline as well as Lists, hashtags you search for and even feeds from individual Twitter accounts.

It would also be nice if you could reply/retweet/quote tweet/etc. tweets directly from the app.

Thanks.

I regularly enable the Do Not Disturb setting, or whatever it morphed into with the introduction of Focus in iOS 15, before I go to sleep at night. Despite this, My phone has woke me up twice since I migrated to iOS 17.

Hi everyone. Lately my phone has been downloading voices that I don't want to use for voiceover anymore. Is there any way to fix this?

Hi... Is there a way I can send a text message to all my contacts Individually at the same time? No matter what apple device I'm using...
Thank you

Hello all,
from iOS 11 I have a problem with switching the sound during a phone call on my iPhone 6s+.
When I receive a notification during a call, I hear a sound in the receiver.
Then, after a moment, the caller's voice switches to the speakerphone mode.

I think that this is due to the backlight of the screen when the notification is received, and then its blanking after a certain time according to the system settings.

The handsfree mode is switched on not when the notification is received, only after some time from this event.

Hi, I'm thinking about getting a iPhone 14 pro is there a way the phone will automatically take a selfie?

I am wondering if those familiar with Workflow or similar apps know if it is possible to automate switching to camera mode. Ideally, what I would like to do is have a single icon that would take my phone from portrait to landscape, turn brightness to 100 percent and basically be ready to take a picture.
If I had someone sighted with me, I could then just turn voiceover off and hand the phone over to them, or leave it on and take the picture or video myself.

I am using an iPhone SE 2020 with the latest IOS version 14.4.1

I get many image forwards on my What app. application. As of today, I have
image recognition turned on in my VoiceOver Rotar settings. However, each
time I want to get the text out of the image, I have to open it, switch the
Rotar to Screen Recognition and turn it on to be able to read the image. Most of the time, the text read out of the image isn't accurate and unreliable.

Is there a GPS app that works with Voiceover and will guide the user to the nearest road or street, without the user having to point his/her phone?

Thanks!

Hi everyone,

Dear All

Unlike almost all apps discussed here, Nearby Explorer is not available in the South African app store.

I have written to the American Printing House for the Blind to ask them to make it available in the South African app store. We have pretty detailed FourSquare and Google maps here, so it should work well. I have received no response from them. I will write again.

Many of you might know that HBO has rebranded to call itself Max. Along with this, the company has released brand new apps for iOS and iPad OS. The app showed up late last night. Those of you who watch HBO's shows and movies by using the iOS or iPad OS apps should not download this app. The app has an inaccessible CAPTCHA.

With the latest Starbucks app update, the app crashes every time I try to access the Order button. I can reproduce this crash reliably, every time. This is a huge disappointment. Their app support team has been helpful in the past so I'll email them, and I encourage others to do the same. I don't have an email address for them so you just have to use the contact form from the app or website
