iOS and iPadOS

Post Date:

Alright, so it’s either my stupidity or my computer being an absolute annoyance, but I can’t get my iPhone into recovery mode to install iOS 16.6 and take off this God for second iOS 17 beta!
I’m trying to give this phone to my mum, and it’s not really helping that all of my data including my messages on here and I wanna get all of that off

Hi;

I'm Rob. First time posting, but I've bopped in and out from time to time. :) So my query is thus: I am looking at updating to an iPhone X series, but I don't know if I should get the XS or XR. Where am I going with this, considering it's posted in the apps forum? Well, I was curious for those of you who have an iPhone X: Are there any advantages with accessible apps for us that may operate better utilizing the secondary camera (particularly with AR [augmented reality] apps that could aid us as blind people?)

Thanks :)

I have just looked at the photos app for the first time since updating to iOS 14. What have they done to it? Using voice-over I can’t make head nor tale of navigating through the photos. If I put a finger on the screen it tells me there is a photo but if I flick left or right to get to another one like I used to it just goes to the tabs or do something else. Any ideas or suggestions? Using voice-over.

Hello all. Thanks to the replies I received from the community and my own research I have settled on an Iphone XR. As I was upgrading from an Iphone 6S Plus I have seen a significant improvement in performance. I find the lack of a home button annoying, but I know I'll get used to it. What is a significant frustration is Face ID. It recognizes me, but it takes so bloody long to unlock your phone in comparison to touch ID. My question is simple: is there a way to have the phone actually open up when Face ID is successful?

hello gang,
so i recently got myself a new iphone XR and am loving it.
however, i noticed an issue while charging it's battery.
for some reason, i noticed that the battery never seems to get fully charged, and all i hear when i touch the battery status is battery charging 100%.
from what i know, voiceover should say on AC power indicating that the battery is fully charged
i even tried turning on airplane mode and charged it the entire night; but the battery never reached the 100% AC notification.

Following upgrading my iPhone X are 2 iOS 14 The Disney+ app is not accessible to me. When I open the app it just reads the status line and will not read anything else on the screen. When I turn VoiceOver off and ask for the family to use it it works fine. My wife has an iPhone 11 and doesn’t have a problem. Is anybody else with the eggs are having this issue?

Hi, I just bought my new iPhone XS, and I am loving it so far. my probably most annoying issue is that when I get texts, or emails, etc, the lock screen won't let voiceoverr read the message, or read me the subject of the email. Can this be fixed? I went from my iphone7 running iOS 12 ato my iPhone xs running iOS 12, and this is the most annoying issue so far. I hope someone has any clues to see if this can be fixed? or is it by design? or a bug?

Thanks.

I have a surprising but frustrating issue that seemed to come at me out of nowhere last evening, relating to input via the keyboard on my XS. My trouble is not with a hardware-based, physical keyboard I'm trying to link to my iPhone, but rather with the software keyboard that is native to the phone itself. I cannot get this virtual, on-screen

Spotlight is one of the best, if not the best, features on the iPhone, and it hasn’t been broken in years. I literally use it for everything: calculations, calls, email searches, dictionary, messages, settings, and more. It saves a lot of time since I don’t have to open an app to search within it. However, guess what? It's partially broken with iOS 18.
The functionality is okay, but we have a few problems here:

Hello, I have 2 machines with iOS8: one is an iPhone 4s the other is a 3rd generation iPad.
Many, many bugs have been documented by all of us, and I am afraid to have found another one but, before listing it in the bugs dedicated topic I'd need a further test by other users.
This annoying bug affects iPhones and seems not to be present on iPad, and it appears when iPhone is connected to airplay devices wirelessly. Airplay, not bluetooth.
So, for example if you have an AQ airplay speaker, an apple tv or an airport express you may be affected by this annoyance.

I updated an iPhone to iOS 17. Now, when I go to move to next page of my home screen, it says.
Search Page 1 of 10

Before iOS 17, it would just say page 1 of 10
Is this a voice problem?

Hi. how do you rearrange / move apps to change it's current location around your device? and how do you create folders? how it is done using voice over? thank you so much

I have Macular Degeneration, and am experiencing visual distortion rather than blank or dark spots in my vision. I see wavy lines, and when I read the letters sort of “decompose” - pieces of them disappear, and I have to figure out what I’m seeing from context. Several months ago I was trying to read a label on something, and was using my iPhone magnifier app. To my surprise, the app not only made the print bigger, it corrected the “decomposition” of the letters and made the print look normal to me.

On my iPhone and IPad for a while now the volume has been acting really weird, it is at a level and then when I recieve a message or an e-mail the volume shoots up! It also shoots up if I'm listening to some music or a podcast and I skip forward/back 15 seconds or change the track position. Has anyone else experienced this?

Hi, I am currently an iPhone user but am considering purchasing an iPad. I do understand that there are differences between an iPad and an iPhone, however, I am unsure if there are significant differences from a blind perspective. If a person owns an iPhone or iPod is there any reason they should purchase an iPad? Is there anything that the iPad can do that an iPhone or iPod cannot? Are there any helpful iPad only apps? Thanks for your input, Gabriella

Hi, I don't know if its a problem or not,but on my ipad mini, when I have my camra open,and it detects a face, it lets me know by things like small face,big face,0 faces etc. but on my iphone5, it doesn't seem to be doing the same. I suppose Iphone5 was supposed to have that recognition stuff too? So,what if anything am I doing wrong? and is there anything that I can do to fix it? if it even works on the iphone5 that is. but I do think that it does,as I seem to have read it somewhere on this site itself... any help would be awesome.

I have a question. Is there a way to turn off the need to enter your passcode on restart if you have touch ID enabled? When I have to restart my phone i am always asked to physically enter the passcode the first time. Why do they do it? That's annoying.
