How does one shuffle songs by genre in iOS 7? When I go into the new music app, I select the more option and then select genres. Then, I selected the genre I want. When I'm in that genre's page, I cannot find a shuffle button. Is there one there, or is voiceover skipping over it?
iOS and iPadOS

It goes without saying that I am a music fanatic. 99 percent of the time when I'm jamming out, I'm not listening to just one album. I'm shuffling the tunes. However, most of the time when I am listening to only one album, I still like to shuffle. This brings me to my question.
In iOS6, it was extremely easy to choose if you wanted to shuffle only one album, the entire artist collection, or your entire music collection. However, since they changed the look of the music app in iOS7, it no longer shuffles only one album, unless it's the only album you have from said artist.

After I'm done using iPhone, I shut it off with the power button. However I read that the iPhone is designed to be left on. When should I use the power button on the phone? I heard you should only shut it off completely if you encounter a problem and need to reset it. Please write back. Thanks.

Hi,
I have experience with both Weather gods & Carrot weather, and really like them, for different reasons.
However, I realize that I don't need both.
Since Weather gods will soon be subscription-based, I'd like a side-by-side comparison of both, so I can make a decision as to which one I'm going to subscribe to.
Carrot weather is available on more platforms, but I love the variety of sounds that Weather gods makes, which is a feature that Carrot weather doesn't offer.
Thanks for any recommendations.

Recently, Apple announced in a newsroom post that they would be allowing sideloading on iOS, along with third-party browser engines and payment services. For me, this decision begs the question of whether even that is violating consumer choice protocols in other parts of the world. I've taken to Change.org to try and resolve this, but I would like to hear some other oppinions.

Does anyone know where I can get a list of sighted equivalents to VoiceOver gestures? I have some friends and family who have iPhones, but they don't use VoiceOver because they can see the screen. It's a little tricky when I'm trying to help them, and I don't know the gestures that they would use without VoiceOver. Thanks.

Hi, I just called apple's disability support yesterday because I'm trying to use a partially inaccessible app called Offer Up. The camera roll is not detectable by Voiceover. The rep on the phone was extremely unhelpful; he said Apple doesn't help users with inaccessible apps because it's the developer's responsibility to fix accessibility problems. I pointed out that the developer is completely unresponsive.

Does anyone on here have any experience with the qvc app? When I try to sign in, It brings me to sign, vo says sign in heading level1, I swipe right and then vo will say account sign in but when I double tap on that it doesn't do anything, then I will swipe right and that's the furthest it will go. How do I sign in?
Thanks

Hello, When trying to sign in to Youtube via the app on the iPhone, I for some reason am unable to. I'm using my Google account username and password to do this, and I can do this just fine on my pc, and through the built in web browser on the iPhone. I was reading somewhere that you have to use an app specific password, that I was unable to get, because Jaws kept saying when I entered the edit field to type my username and such, edit field unavailable.
Is there a simpler way around this, or can anyone give any other suggestions?
Thanks, Shane.

I really like the Silence Calls feature of the Phone App. What I don't like is having to first get rid of the calls from my lock screen and then go in to the Recents Section of the Phone App and delete the entry again. If the caller doesn't leave a voice mail, I would rather not even know a call came in and was silenced. Maybe that could be a settings option in later IOS. Just a thought and my opinion.

I posted this as a comment in the VIPhone google group:
I find VO's speaking during a phone call annoying also. Here's an enhancement suggestion I have for the VO team:
Add a VO setting option to turn VO speech off during a phone call.

Hi All, How do you silence voiceover? My example is: I get a notification that there's voice mail, I double tap to listen, raise the phone, and while the voice mail is playing, VO starts talking saying things like row expanded and other stuff. So I have to go back and tap play voice mail. So how do you stop VO in order to hear voice mail? Thank you.

I set up my emergency S.O.S. contacts and was reading about how it works. OK, sorry folks. Here's my question: the sleep/wake button is the one on the phone and not the same as the Home Button, right? Thank you.

Silver sword just got a big update. One of the key features mentioned was a big improvement to VO users. Now, magic tap and the game will tell you where you are and what exits you can take. I've made more progress in this game over the last half hour than I had in a week before it, so you might give it another try. It's also crashing much less often.

I have a Yamaha piane keyboard with a Usb port. I have the camera kit adapter and can connect my keyboard to my phone and IPod touch with no problems. I have tried garage band for IOS to get the audio from my keyboard to come directly into my IOS device with no success. I have found garage band to be not very user friendly with voice over on IOS. I like that garage band has different piano and keyboard sounds that can be used with an external piano keyboard. If anyone knows of any similar apps that offer the same features pliffe share them.

Hello all,
I am looking for a simple checklist app. I do not need one like TODO or Things. I just want something simple like repeat checklist. Repeat checklist is the ideal app except for the fact that it has not been updated for five years. Does anyone know of a simple app like repeat checklist that is a bit more modern?
Thanks,
Greg Wocher

I'd like to put a simple GPS app on my blind husband's iPhone. I was going for BlindSquare, but it appears to be gone from the app store. I just thought it would be handy for him to know nearby streets, which direction he's heading, and possibly some points of interest.
I was thinking free or low-cost. Reccomendations?
Thanks.

Hello. Can anyone suggest a simple habit tracker app or information about making a shortcut that does what I wanted to do. I want to track two or three habits. All I care about is how many days in a row I do them. Thanks.
