Does anyone use a robocall blocker? I'm looking for a good accessible one. I know you can silence all unknown callers but I'm not sure I want to have to add anyone who might possibly call me to my contacts. I tried Youmail, and it's the most accessible one I've found, but it didn't seem to block a lot of calls. Right now I'm using Hiya, but it's only partially accessible and the app's interface seems to have changed a lot recently.
iOS and iPadOS

I know that the roder is a powerful tool for changing settings. However, it seems that it just keeps growing and has so many items that it's a struggle to quickly and easily find the appropriate item when needed. I call this condition rodder bloat. In other words we have too much of a good thing. What would be really be handy is to offload rodder items to siri. Imagine how much easier it would be to say something like select text or visited links. Powerful tools should be made as simple as possible.

Is anyone having problems with Roger app? The latest update on my iPod 6th GEN is really killing my battery. The iPod get really hot when I'm using the app. I noticed this behavior a couple days ago. Earlier tonight my batter got down to 19 percent.

Hello all,
In just a few short days, Roger, one of my favorite voice messaging apps will sease to exist. I know about Hey Tell, Zello, WhatsApp, and Threma. I am just trying to figure out which one I should go for. I already hav WhatsApp, but sometimes the messages that I receive take up room on my iPhone. Another app that was recommended to me was BitTorrent Bleep, but I do not know if that supports voice messaging. And I know that Wire is not very accessible. Have I missed any apps? Let me know your thoughts and suggestions.
Thanks so much. :-)

The Roger team works very quickly! Just a while ago, not even an hour ago as of this writing, yet another update was released that fixes all the issues VoiceOver users were having. With as many Roger users on here, i'm a bit surprised that more people weren't talking about this. Anyways, Thanks to the Roger team for fixing these VoiceOver issues so quickly. Now it's pretty much like back to normal, and when you're listening to someone you can still use the playback rate button too. and all those extra buttons are gone too.

I installed the free roku channel app on my iPhone SE 2020 phone. I then made a free account. Will this app airplay to an apple-tv? Also it won't let me scroll through all the tv channels. How do I do this if possible? The roku channel offers free live tv channels that neither stirr, nor pluto tv offers. But there is no apple tv app so I will have to airplay channels from the roku channel. Any tips on using this app with voiceover will be greatly appreciated. thanks.

Does anyone know if the Roku Mobile app for iOS is accessible?
I’m actually wanting to watch the new Weird movie from Al Yankovic (unfortunately, without Audio Description at time of writing).

If you belong to the Tech VI list and read your email with voiceover on, using iOS 17, does your device say "tech 6 instead of "Tech VI? If so, has any of you reported it yet? I'm planning on doing so myself. We have a "CVI" center here at my work and VO also says "106" instead of CVI.

Hi all. As we all know dictation spectacularly fails most of the time. When i try to switch the rotar from, actions where it brings up the context menu, to say words to scroll down and fix my handy work, it somehow goes right back to the default. I can have it set to words, swipe down maybe once or twice then it's back to "activate context menu". Anyone else have this? It's making me less sane than I was that that wasn't much. :)

Rotor actions in mail
Hi everyone,
I'm using Gmail on an iPhone 5. Has anyone ever noticed, when using the rotor to delete messages, they always end up in the all-male or archived folders? Is anyone else having this problem? Is there a Gmail setting to move into the trash this way?
Sorry to disrupt anyone's email organized life, but I really hope this can be fixed. Or at least tell me how to fix it :-)

Has anyone else notice that since updating their iPhone to iOS10 that the text selection option in the rota which enables you to ignore a word if you wrote it right but it tries to correct it, it is not there anymore?

Hello, I am trying to isolate a bug I have in several writing apps affecting the line by line reading mode.
Description
In several apps (Bear note, Microsoft Word, SimpleNote...) reading formatted text line by line is impossible as VoiceOver stops reading, it makes the clicking sound but does not move from current line. It happens mostly if reading from the first line to the last, but even trying the opposite at a certain points stops working. No work-around detected yet.

I discovered a feature in iOs 11 in messages that there is a rotor option in the messages app called mispelled words. I cannot find this in the native notes app, though, so I wonder if there is a way to access that? I am an author and am writing a long book wich every note being a chapter and this would greatly enhance the spell checking experience. This is a good feature, but I don’t know how to use it. Wouldn’t this be better in the notes app than the messages app?

I've noticed two new items in the rotor, and I'm not sure what they are. Sometimes in certain apps, I see a containers option on the rotor, but when I swipe up and down, it does nothing. My question is what are containers? Another new item I've noticed is the language section on the rotor. I find this to be particularly annoying. Is there a way I can disable it? Thanks for your help.

Hi, all. Is there a way to specify a rotor setting within an activity? For example, vertical navigation in Dice world, actions in Mail?
Thanks,

Hi,
No matter what I do I can't get the VoiceOver rotor to reorder itself the way I like it. What is the logic behind what happens if you are moving things around and you are not on the first page of items? I move an item to the top of the screen and the whhole thing shuffles like a deck of cards.
