iOS and iPadOS

Post Date:

Hi, I have recently migrated to iPhone SE2 from iPhone 5S and facing the following issues. The edit fields in Facebook and some of the banking apps don't work - the double tap gesture does not highlight the text fields nor bring up the keypad option. This issue does not occur when Voiceover is switched off. I have even tried deleting Facebook and reinstalling the app but the issue persists.

I lost my voice over and Siri voices. Can I please get some help with getting them back?
Thanks for any help.

Hi all,
Has anyone figured out how to use the new predictive typing feature in iOS 17? VoiceOver announces the word suggestions as I'm typing, which is quite annoying. I also find that some of the suggested words are being entered into the text field, so I'm assuming I'm inadvertently selecting them when typing.
Thank you.

Since I downloaded IOS8 to my iPod Touch, I have had issues with the iTunes ap. One of these issues is searching. For example, I enter a search, say, Dr. Who, hit search, swipe to more followed by audio books, and only find a fraction of the titles that should be displayed. I have proved this by carrying out the same procedure on my iPhone, not yet running IOs8, and finding a far greater range of titles. Secondly, when clearing text, I find I have to do it twice. Can these issues be resolved?

Hi! I am using a bluetooth keyboard for my Ipad. I have two keyboards and the same thing happens on both. Often when I press VO+Space I often get a double tap and hold instead of a double tap. Is there a setting somewhere where I can fix this because it is messing up a lot for me. Both my keyboards are different brands so I don’t think it is the keyboard.

I have an IPad and I use it a lot. It is an IPad 10 generation.
Lately I have had an issue where the keyboard layout seems to have changed. I am using the swedish layout on the keyboard but it is like my VoiceOver uses the English layout resulting in commands working differently, like for example VO+ the minus sign in the keyboard, to the left of the right shift key, used to perform a magic tap. Instead, and I used VO help to confirm this, it gives a slash symbol. This does not happen when I write either.

Does anyone have any voiceover issues with the latest version of the Wells Fargo banking app? I'm trying to report them but can't seem to find out how to do it.

The newest version of YouTube which I am accessing on my iPhone 6 running iOS 9.2 works pretty well. I found one issue. Sometimes you cannot flick between different on-screen elements. You have to slide your finger around to find what you're looking for. Sometimes I like to orient myself by doing a four finger tap to put the voiceover cursor in the upper left corner of the screen, and then flick right to find a nearby option. Sometimes this works in YouTube and sometimes it doesn't. Also, the comments section of the app really needs some attention for voiceover users.

Hi all: I finally decided to set up email on my IPhone5 today. I am using my gmail account with the native IPhone email app. I went in to the settings and disabled push to both save on battery and avoid having my phone constantly going off. I set my fetch time to 30 minutes, which I figured was a decent interval. No sooner did I put the phone down and it started buzzing at me about email. Even though I set the fetch time to 30 minutes, it's pulling mail every 5-10 minutes. What gives? Thanks in advance.

Curious if anyone else has noticed a pretty serious bug with VO and the mail app.
When typing, it takes several seconds for VO to echo what I've entered into an email.
At first, I thought it was a bug with Braille Screen Input, but I experienced the same thing with the print keyboard.

I tried restarting the phone, killing the app, and all the usual good things, but the problem persists.

Here's hoping for a quick fix. I'll report to Apple Accessibility, but it's going to have to be by phone.

Hi all,
I've been meaning to post about this for a while now but ever since ring changed the layout of their app I am having trouble answering my ring, it use to be that I could answer with a swipe down to accept call after doubletapping the notification, now when I bring up the answer screen there's all of this clutter and I'm sure I'm supposed to doubletap on the select mic enabled button, by the time I unlock my phone with my touch id, try to find the mic button, the live video feed has ended and I have to answer the door via person.

I'm not exactly sure when this started, but I'm having issues with notifications on the OUtlook app. They don't seem to play a sound anymore or appear in my notification center despite notification settings being turned on. Trying to avoid an uninstall and reinstall but will do if necessary. Anyone have any suggestions?

Hi all
I am not sure if anyone can re-produce the same issues I am having with my iPad Pro 9.7 and Pages documents. The navigation seems inconsistent, VoiceOver performance is quite unpredictable; sometimes it is doing what it is supposed to do, sometimes it skips lines or entire paragraph, the performance specially with large documents turns attempt to read a document impossible.

Hello,
Does anyone here use doordash? It seems quite accessible accept rating the delivery. There's also a submit button that vo doesn't activate. The only way around it is to close and reopen the app. Anyone use this app and have any ideas?
Thanks

Hi, I have loaded up some Daisy books into Read2Go, using relevant instructions. When playing an audio book, I find that it reads fine, howeverr, from time to time, skips part of the book and continues as though nothing has happened. I have tried this several times and know that it is missing out part of the story. When this happens, I have usually been listening for several minutes and my iPhone 4S is locked, so I am not inadvertently tapping any navigation buttons. Has anyone else experienced this behaviour with Read2Go and, if so, have you been able to resolve it?

OK, this started a couple days ago… On posts that have many comments and replies, when I found a comment that had something like 100 replies to it, I two finger double tapped, to bring up the list that you can select like, look at profile, reply, report, and cancel… I tapped on reply, and it would bring up all the replies to that comment, so I could read them all… Now when I do that same process, it just brings up a reply edit line, and I cannot read the previous replies… Not sure what is wrong… Pretty sure there hasn't been an update in the last couple days… It must be a voiceover

I am using the latest version of VoiceDream Reader, with VoiceOver, on my second generation iPhone SE (the 2020 version). I have Heather set as my preferred voice and that is the only voice I use. I have begun to encounter an issue where, when I swipe up and down on the play button, to rewind and fast forward, the speech pauses for a split second, as it normally does when it is reseting its position, but it then resumes reading in the same place.

Hi,

Can anyone help with a couple of issues I’m having after updating to IOS16.1.

First, before updating to IOS 16, in Safari, after reading a story I’d normally click the back button located lower left on my iPhone screen. However since updating the buttons at the bottom disappear unless I scroll back to the top of the page.

This morning I had found how to get the World channel on Seeing AI and added it, then went to test it out and... nothing, I flipped to the world channel and moved the phone around but nothing happened, no VO cues even though Scenes were eatching just fine and so it must've been picking stuff up, not an issue with my camera. I had seen it on someone else's device that world was supposed to give VO cues when you moved the device. So I wondered, if I was doing something wrong or whether the World Channel was broken.
