Okay, I was inspired by the AppleVis podcast on creating custom shortcuts, so I started creating my own.

Although most of it just involves slogging through the actions and experimenting to get used to the system, the biggest question I have is how to debug shortcuts one is developing.

For example, I can read in variables, set variables, change variables, etc. But is there an easy way to display variables either one at a time or several at once so that I can debug the shortcut as it is being written?

Hi,

I post this here since I'm not referring to any particular app, but to the way of using them.
I tried several QR scanners and I found that I'm not able to place the camera correctly to get them read. Even if I know where the code is I can't manage it.
I would like to hear tips from totally blind users on how to place the device so it can catch the code.

Hi All,
Just upgraded from iPhone 8 to 11. All is fine re face id etc. However, when I use the phone to unlock it doesn't take me direct to the home screen. Instead, it says unlocked then I have to swipe to actually get off the lock screen. With my 8 touch id unlocked the phone and took me direct to the home screen. I'm sure there is a way of going direct there but I can't for the life of me find a setting to do this. Any ideas how I can unlock and get to the home screen without having to do a swipe?

Dear All, Does anyone know how to display a list of audio books available at a local library? I have been using this App for some time and can get as many e-books as I can read. However, I cannot display any audio books in the list of results I get after searching. I have found the area that requires me to choose the format I want to access, for example, e-books and I assume that I should be able to slide-down to choose audio books but this doesn't work..

Hi there,
I recently updated to the latest version of iOS, iOS 16.2 from iOS 15.
The most annoying thing at the moment about the Books app is that because of the way the VoiceOver reads it now, after each section of text it will do a keyboard click when in continuous reading mode, something which didn’t happen in the previous version of iOS.
Is there anyway to reduce this or are we just stuck with it now.

Hi all,

I have an iPhone 6 running ios 12 and a new battery that was fitted by Apple under the replacement program three weeks ago. I have been using a new pair of bluetooth earphones for the last couple of weeks and they have been fine. However, yesterday for some reason I could not get them to connect to my phone.

Hi everyone,

This is David. I posted about my iPhone upgrade dilemma a while back. Now I just learned that my friend successfully brought the phone with him and will bring it to me when he visits me later this week. So I'll be upgrading from the 13 mini to the standard 17.

What are some new changes I should be aware of? Things to prepare? Settings to adjust?

Thanks for any tips!

David

Hey all, I've got some absolutely awesome apps to submit, but I'm having a lot of trouble with iTunes. First, there is the problem of finding the exact app I want. I think I can go to search in one of the menus, but I can't remember which one or how I even pulled the app store up in the first place. Second, I can't get JAWS or NVDA to copy the link to the app store for the IPhone to go on so people can check the app out. How are you getting these links?

Hi Folks
Since updating to IOS 16, I can't activate any of the notifications on my locked screen. A single swipe up or down gives me options to clear, open a tool bar so I can mute for an hour or a day and also block. All of these are working properly. However whatever I try, I simply can't activate a notification. If it's in a stack I can double tap to open the stack but still can't activate.
I've tried a one finger double tap and also swiping up to activate and double tapping but neither gets any results.

Hi everyone. I’ve been trying to edit a transcription in Just press Record and I am struggling. If I try moving through the document using the rota or a Bluetooth keyboard line by line or word by word, Voiceover doesn’t read the document but if i touch the screen it reads the document out. Has anyone found a way round this? I’ve tried to export the document to other apps with similar results. Please help!

Hello all,

I hope all are well. To my understanding, as of iOS 16, there is supposed to be a starting point detection feature in Apple Maps. I copied the description I found from Apple “ Starting point detection with VoiceOver in Maps. VoiceOver users now get automatic sound and haptic feedback that identifies the starting point for walking directions in Maps“.

I got a question on my iOs device and it asked me if I wanted to keep the music I already had on my device and I chose yes. Is there a way to change that?

if you go into the Tubi TV app and you choose the explorer tab and then you search for spellbinder,, and then you pick the spellbinder TV show, it only shows the first three episodes. I cannot scroll to see the rest of the episodes. Using Apple TV and voiceover on the Apple TV box, I can see all episodes. What am I doing wrong? is this a bug in iOS 13.6? Or is it a bug in the Tubi TV app? Please download the app and see if you get the same results that I do. I don't know why I can choose and see all episodes with voiceover on Apple TV but not with voiceover on the iPhone.

Hi all

On my old nokia i used to be able to send contacts to other phones as a business card if anyone remembers the good old days of talks and nokias.

I am sure i phone is capable of something similar but does anyone know how you can either copy and paste a phone number from your contacts into a message body or simply send a contact to someone via text message.
