I’m considering a smart ring, but wanted to see if VoiceOver users have tried either of these?
Oura Ring: the most accurate sleep and activity tracker:

If you have a smart ring, it’d be great to learn about your experience as a person who is blind.
Thanks!
Hi everyone, I just bought a new oven for baking bread etc. I was wondering if there are any accessible (meat) thermometers available with a voiceover accesjsible app?
Any experience?
Thanks in advance

product description
Not sure if this is the best forum for this, but I picked up a pretty cool piece of gear and wanted to let folks know about it as many may be interested, and offer a bit of a review. It isn't a smart home device, but it could be classified under gadgets, so there ya go. I have, for several years now, been using an Allen & Heath XB-14-2 broadcast console for my online radio station.
I'm not sure if this is something with an app update or something with my device itself but my qardio arm will not pump up. This just happened with the past couple of app updates. The motor turns on but does not fill the cuff all the way up with air. I've been placing the device like I always have as instructed. Sometimes I can play with the cuff to get it to work. Tonight I was needing to take my bp and it would only pump up if I put it on my rist. I've replaced the batteries to see if that would work but no luck.
Hi, i'm wondering can people give me recommendations please for accessible smart plugs, in other words you plug one into an outlet and plug another device into it, then you can use an app to schedule timers for example for things to switch on and off.
A question for those using the euphy doorbell.
How do you check the batery status of the euphy doorbell within the euphy security app with voiceover?
I have three Google speakers. About a week ago, I realized that the radio stations that I would stream would play for about half an hour and then stop for no reason. It happens on both stations that I usually listen to. has anyone else had this problem? Does it mean my speakers are wearing out?
Hi everyone,
I'm considering jumping on the Instant Pot bandwagon and am debating between the IP60 Duo and the smart IP60 with bluetooth connectivity. I like the idea of the bluetooth, but I have a couple concerns about the app.
App Store ratings are extremely low. Users say it fails to stay paired and is otherwise unstable. It also hasn't been updated in over a year. So I'm wondering if any of you have had similar issues, and whether you see the app being able to stay current over time.
Thanks for your help.
I'm thinking of getting a blink doorbell, how accessible is the app?
Also is it easy to set up to use with alexa?
I'm going to want to use the doorbell without wiring it because I've never had any doorbell and I don't have anybody who would know how to wire one for me so if anybody has any comments regarding this I'd certainly appreciate hearing them.
If someone comes to the door and I want to know who it is before I open the door how would I do this? Both using the app and alexa please.

Any suggestions/recommendations on smart door lock? I've been using August for a while, but this one has died and they want to sell a new one.
We initially had August Smart Lock Homekit Enabled that would required battery replacements every few months, had connectivity issues, and ended up having a defect. We then got upgraded to the Smart Lock Pro, which last almost 3.5 years. , but stopped working, and only option is to get a new one.
I am considering purchasing an instapot. I understand that some of these devices can be controlled using an app on an iPhone these days.
Which specific devices would you recommend in terms of:
- Useful features
- Accessibility using any UI or physical buttons on the device
- Accessibility via an iOS app that I can use with Voiceover
Thanks for any recommendations or suggestions.

I am looking to replace an existing home security system with one that I can monitor and control remotely via an iPhone app.
I'm having trouble with my Ring doorbell app working with VoiceOver on my iPhone 6S (running latest version of iOS). Can someone give me step by step directions on what I should be doing when I hear the doorbell alert on my phone? I keep my phone unlocked most of the day. I have the "lock orientation" switched on so I am in portrait mode. I hear the doorbell alert on my phone and receive a notification at the top of my screen. If I understand it correctly, I need to open the Ring app and flick to the right until I hear "Talk" and then double tap on that button.
I wanted to pick iOS VoiceOver users brains here who have experiences with robot mops.
It seems that there a range of them, but wanted to hear stories and experiences about how effective and accessible they are with pets and being blind.
Looking forward to recommendations, discussions, and cleaner floors!
Hello,
The subject says everything: I am searching for a brand of scales that works over bluetooth or wifi and is accessible with iOS and also integrates in the health app...... a connection with amazon Alexa would be a + :D
Thanks
Hello,
I am looking for a scale that I could use as a totally blind person and that would record the measurements on the iPhone.
Thanks,

hello guys, seeking accessible blood presure monitor for iOS,
thanks and advance.
Hello audio lovers!
I have 2 really good speakers connected to my Apple TV through an audio receiver from Marantz. I love the speakers, I love the sound, but the receiver frequently causes issues. As far as I know the receiver itself does not have any accessibility features and last time I tried the app it was a horrible experience. Consequently, if something stops working I need a sighted person to help sort things out *sigh*
