Hi all. I know with hardware evolving, we need to get used to things changing. When I had my Iphone six S plus, my phone when it was on mute, the haptick feedback was not really present. Yes, it was there when i pressed the 3D touch on an app, that was about it. I'm under new hardware now, I notice quite a difference. Such as "liking", a facebook post now it will give a gentle tap so to speak. i'd like this to be expanded in future Ios updates, as long as the current models can be supported. I'd like to see a few changes.

on my iPhone 12 with iOS 14.4 The function of giving an app in the App Store, does not work. I tried a 6s and so on. And the latter with the same iOS 14.4. Does anyone know what the problem is? Is it known to Apple? The moment I access the gift button, everything freezes. Thanks.

Hi everyone!
I just purchased the game The Girl Who Sold The World, after seeing a forum topic on this site about the game being an audio adventure and on ear mode, which, I assumed, would be accessible for the blind and can be used with VoiceOver. However, I was wrong when I opened the app and discovered that it was not the case. VoiceOver didn't say anything when first time launching the app and getting into the first screen. After turning VO off and randomly touching the screen, I heard audio feedback.
But, I thought there was an ear mode? Where is it?

I have been working more with the Gutenberg app and there are good and not so good things about it. The books are readable from within the library that you create within the app when and if you download books. The books read well, but if the iphone or ipad or whatever is bumped, the book starts from the beginning again. If there is a way to bookmark your place, and there might be, I haven't found it yet.

Hi. There've been some rather spirited discussions on twitter and other social networks concerning people's use of the compact voices in iOS 5 verses the hq voices. I've heard lots of reports that people have have had loads of issues with VO crashing while using the compact voices, whereas my experience has been that while using the HQ voices I've had almost no issues at all. I've had my iPod touch for a couple months now and the only problem I had with VO crashing was due to operator error. With these folks the speed of the voice seems to be a major issue.

Hi,
I visited a apple store yesterday to have a look at the new max xr and the XS devices.
I didn't have a chance to have a look at the X previously so I wasn't aware of how the home button gesture works.
Whilst many on here describe the feature as really entuitive, and easy to do, I had real difficulty with it. took me a minute to get it out of the settings screen and to the home screen lol.
My max should be ariving today, and I wonder if I am missing something here, that is maybe I am performing the go to home gesture incorrectly?

Hi,
When you update to a new version of iOS, what's the best way to get rid of that ridiculously frustrating spinning globe? Or as I like to call it, the spinning globe of doom, lol. I have an iPhone 14 pro, and I can't seem to select hello fast enough, and just double tap on it, as I had in previous iOS versions prior to 16.

Hello:
I don't know how many of you this will affect, or if anyone will have an answer, but here's my issue.
I live in an apartment complex that has automated gates.

My YouTube app updated and now I can’t read comments on YouTube anymore, well I can read the first one but then after that VoiceOver won’t carry on.
Just wondering if anyone else is having the same issue, I will put a report into Google Accessibility but the last one I did took about two years to resolve, and then The issue just came back again in the next update so I don’t suppose it’ll be much use.

Hi there. I'm subscribed to Apple music and am trying to access the lyrics feature using iOS (version 16.1 on an SE 2020). For every song (whether it's in my music library or not) the lyrics button is dimmed in my case so nothing happens when i double-tap it. I've been through the music settings but can't find any obvious option about lyrics or something to that effect. Just wondering if anyone could suggest what i might be missing please? Many thanks.

I have an SE phone and upgraded to 18.2 the other day. When I went to read my emails, it said that there weren’t any new messages, even though I know there were some in there. How do you get rid of all those categories and just have a simple email like it used to be. sometimes, Apple makes a mess out of things.

Hi. I hope someone can help me out. Are you supposed to be able to get directions on the iPhone maps app from a starting point to a final destination announced in its entirety rather than just as driving directions, telling you to turn once you get to a certain point en route? I’d like to get a sense of where I’ll be going before I leave for a destination, not just as I’m driving or navigating to it. I hope I’m describing what I want clearly enough and that someone might be able to help figure out the maps app or direct me to one that will do what I want it to.

Hi all,
I was really enthralled by the concept of a measurement app within IOS 12 and wanted to try it out when I downloaded the upgrade last night. However, I cannot find the app anywhere.
Therefore, can anyone let me know whether the app works with VO and where it is? I understand that the application is located within the VR area of IOS but I cannot find that on my phone. Any support would be appreciated.
Steve.

Now I read a text and then after unlocking my phone, when I tap the Messages App, it says something like, " You have five unread messages" and they really are not unread because I've read them on my lock screen as a notification. Any thoughts or suggestions. Thanks!

Hi all. I’ve encountered a problem while using the miss-spelled words option within the rotor and wondered if this is happening across the board or as a result of me doing something wrong somehow.

Hello,
Does anyone know why the more Info button for a recently app that has been updated isn't working?
The VO hints say: "double tap to get more info about the update."
When I double tap on that button I can't get access to any other general information about that update.

Hello, all.
Each semester that I have attended college, the same issue exists--the Disability Support Office never has my books in a timely manner. While you can get books from BookShare and Learning Ally, these sites do not always contain the necessary materials.

Hi folks. I finally made the leap into the iPad world when the new iPad air came out last November and I've got to say I love it. I couldn't justify the stereo+sound on the iPad Pro so the iPad air came and saved me. However, I'm experiencing a bit of a strange issue and, I could be wrong, but I think it's only started happening since iPad OS 14.3. My dock keeps disappearing. It seems to happen when I change the orientation of the iPad air from portrait to landscape but even when I turn it back after it has disappeared, it doesn't seem to come back.
