iOS and iPadOS

Hi all, I recently had an idea to do with voice translation apps, some tv shows have sections where people speak in other languages, unfortunately no ios apps seem particularly good at reading subtitles from a screen particularly in real time. so the thought I had was to try voice translation apps instead, I have tried Microsoft translator, and this isn't bad, but I have found recordings seem to end after basically a few seconds of dialogue, obviously I know they can't go on for minutes or hours, but I don't think 20 or 30 seconds of translation is two much to ask.

Hello everyone.
I have a question about VoiceDream Reader. When I'm reading a book with my brille display, and I get to the end of text, the display said the percentage of text that I've gone through. When i hit the curser to hide the percentage, the display does not place me at the beginning of the sentence. Not sure how to fix this?

Thanks for your help.
Have a good day

hi, in iPhone there is interesting feature using it with voiceover. When you talk on the phone and you take it from your ear, the load speaker or dynamic is turning on. And there is no possibilities to turn of this function, at least I could not find this. Could somebody tell me how to turn it of? This function is not actual in the constant mood, as it is necessary in some rare cases for me. I can not imagine why does apple put this function for the blind, as it makes iPhone products less comfortable to use.
Thank you for your support!

A friend who uses an iPhone 8 with typing set to direct touch is having difficulties when making calls to companies where options are required to be selected. If she has to select a number one, the number will be spoken but will not be entered. Any suggestions as to why this might be?

Hi all, I have a question about working with app updates in ios 7. I have noticed that on the updates tab of the app store it seems to maintain a history list of apps showing what apps were updated and the date of the last update. My question is, how do you remove entries from this list?

I have a question for the current developer of Voice Dream Reader, whomever that may be. There are rumors, in a couple of recent threads on this site, that at least some of the apps in the Voice Dream sweet have been sold by the original developer to another developer. These roomers are, as far as I am aware, only roomers at this point. The Voice Dream team have posted in one of these threads and claim to be monitoring the thread and so they apparently monitor the AppleVis forums. My question to them is this. Has Voice Dream, in fact, been sold or is a sale currently pending?

In iOS 14 I noticed a new rotor option appearing when cycling through the rotor options with VoiceOver.

When on an app or folder in the Home screen I have "Screen Recognition". Flicking up/down doesn't do anything as with most other options in the rotor. I would have expected options for turning this feature on or off.

I did select to turn on Screen recognition in the Settings, but what is this option in the rotor for and how should it be used?

Hi everyone, I had a rather unique question to ask. I've often heard iOS users, mostly sighted users, saying that if they opened the Control Centre, that they could tap and hold on the Bluetooth toggle and have a list of paired devices show, which they could easily select an item and have it connect to it, all without having to open the Bluetooth settings in the Settings app.

Hi everyone.

I'm using an iPhone 13 mini with iOS 18.4.1.

I have a question on audio messages with iMessage. When a friend sends me a voice message on iOS, I'm finding it hard to double tap and listen. Simply, double tapping on the message won't play, but would show a transcript screen. The only way for me to listen to the message is to turn VoiceOver off while holding my finger on the audio message in question, then release the finger and single tap. I have to be careful not tap holding the message.

I am using iOS 10.2 on my iPhone 6. I notice that since iOS 10 the layout of the Notification Screen has changed somewhat and I am confused.

Just to make sure we are talking about the same screen, the Notification screen is the dialog that pops up when doing a three finger swipe down from the very top of the screen when using VoiceOver.

So here is my question:

When in the Notification screen and after swiping right with three fingers to get to the first page, I see a number of items such as:

I have a new iPhone XR.

In the Settings / Display and Brightness I have "Raise to Wake" turned off.

However it seems like when I pick up the phone and touch the screen or swipe with VoiceOver that the phone has turned on.

Is this a bug or am I mis-understanding this feature?

Thanks.

I had a while back listened to Thomas' podcasts on Siri Shortcuts and recently upgraded to an iPhone 11. I tried adding the Share Location shortcut from the gallery but am now having trouble continuing with Thomas' instructions as I can not figure out how to get to the shortcut settings, for example to specify the recipient within the shortcut. Is the shortcut setting button inaccessible, or did the interface change a lot in I O S 13 and the method is different now, or is it just good old human error on my part?

Hello,
I don't know if there's any accessible way to fix this or not as I believe it requires adjusting the pin on the map. and I don't believe that part is accessible. I live in an apartment complex and when I'm using either Uber or Lyft (Lyft is particular worse about this) it will put my address as a range of addresses on my block. Even if I Edit the address it will still change it to a range. Is there an accessible way to adjust the pin so that the driver knows my exact address?
Thanks

Hi Everyone: I recently received notice that the following updates are available on my iPhone 4S running IOS6. Note: I haven't updated to the new IOS6.01 yet. Face Book 5.1 Tweet List for Twitter 331 (may actually be 3.31 as voice over didn't announce a period) Tune In Pro 3.0 Direc TV 231 (may be 2.31 as voice over didn't announce the period) I've heard some "rumblings" (on this site & from others) that Face Book may have voice over issues after updating to the new version. Also heard that some things don't work as well with voice over as they used to in Tune In radio. Haven't heard

Hi everybody
I'm using the default Mail app on my iPhone 6S running IOS 10.2 1 and liked it a lot, but where can I find the Outbox? I have 4 unsend messages I would like to remove, but under Mailboxes, under TelkomSa I can find all the other folders except the Outbox. Is there perhaps another way to remove unsend messages apart from deleting the Mail account and reinstall it again? I use an imap account. I have only one mail account installed.
