I've heard it's possible to use an iPhone as a webcam on a PC with an app, but I'm not sure where to get started. Does anybody know good accessible apps that can do this? I use an iphone 11 running iOS 14.8 and a Windows 10 PC.
iOS and iPadOS
Hi All, I am hoping someone may be able to help with a small problem I am having with my iPhone X. I am a regular user of VoiceOver to use my phone. However, there are sometimes when my sighted wife or son need to use it so for those occasions I turn VoiceOver off to make it easier for them to use. I have noticed that the phone does not now work properly when VoiceOver is turned off. When using the on-screen keyboard letters are spoken, even though VoiceOver is definitely off.
Hello everyone, I recorded my first video using the native iphone video application. However, when I tried to show the video to my friend she said that she can not see anything. I should add that I was trying to record myself in front of the camera. Any suggestions how do you deal with the issue? How do you make sure that the camera is pointing towards you and that you can be seen on the video? I am thinking is there any application that would tell me this, before I actually start recording the video, or how do you deal with this issue? Many thanks for your replys. Zdenek
Hi happy New Year everyone :-) I have a 256 GB iPod touch running the latest version of iOS. Is there any way to use this iPod touch as a media server? Is there any apps that will let me do this? Basically I want my I pod to be discoverable as a media server. If anybody could help me with this that would be great thanks very much everyone and happy New Year once again :-)
So I downloaded Ish, because I thought I saw somebody mention that they use it. I'm using a Bluetooth keyboard.
Hey all
Is there a way that enables me to launch apps using keyboard hotkeys? I use a bluetooth keyboard so I wish there is a way to launch certain apps using my keyboard without having to navigate to where the app is. Thanks for any suggestions
I'm looking for any tips anyone might have for properly aligning the camera when using the KNFB app. Ideally, what is the best field report reading? I get the message "no text found" more often than I'd like.
Thanks in advance.
Hi all,
It's Joseph here. When using KNFB Reader, I have trouble telling when the entire document I'm trying to snap a picture of is visible aside from constantly checking the field of view report. Is there a good way to do this? Thanks!
Hi all,
Just wondering if anyone has had luck using this keyboard. I really love the form factor and the key action, but I'm not having much luck getting it to work with my phone. I can't get it to interact, and I can't access the rotor. The only way I can activate text fields is by double-tapping them on my phone. Given that this is a Logitech keyboard, I'm thinking I must be doing something wrong. Can anyone give me pointers for using this keyboard?
TIA,
Donna
Hello,
I'm a visually impaired college student, studying Computer Science.
I figured that with the recent rise in online accounts being hacked, there's no better time than now, for me to start securing mine, with 2-factor authentication.
I've chosen Microsoft Authenticcator as my app for storing & generating these codes.
I understand that 1password which I use to store my passwords, can also be used for this, but don't know how.
Hello,
For awhile now, I've been using Microsoft OneNote, and loving it!
However, I'm having some iPad-specific issues that I'd like to see if anyone else has experienced, and found workarounds for.
They are:
1. The area where you're supposed to write can't be activated with voiceover
2. It's difficult to access your notebooks
3. Unless I'm doing something wrong, its impossible to access your sticky notes.
For most users these issue will never show up, but for people using other languages than English or using more than one language on a regular basis many of these anoyances may be known. Over the years I have reported them to apple accessibility and until now nothing has happened. So after discussing the first issue on a Danish mailing list I will post tem all here and also repost them to Apple Accessibility in the hope that either Apple will start to listen or more complains will get them to listen.
All, I know that by using multiple playlists, different music can be sent to different iPhones using the same iTunes music library. Is it also possible to prevent all of the apps on one iPhone to install on the other iPhone when both use the same iTunes on the same PC?
I was wondering whether it is necessary to set up different profiles on the same PC and whether, if I did that, two distinct iTunes libraries would be created. Or would I have to install iTunes twice if I wanted different profiles with different libraries?
Hi. I just bought the Nearby Explorer, but I don't know how to use it. I looked for the podcast, but I wasn't able to find it. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I have been trying to use the Netflix app on my iPhone 6 running iOS 8.1.2. There are several issues I've encountered when trying to use this app with VoiceOver and wonder if anyone else has experienced these issues and/or has developed some workarounds.
1. Often when I click on the title of a video (which VoiceOver identifies as a "button"), nothing happens. Sometimes I will have to double tap the video title / button four or five times before the phone goes into landscape mode and starts playing the video.
I have an iPhone 6 S. This may be a crazy question, but has anyone used any kind of OCR or camera app to read a television screen or other displays? If so, which app works best?
thanks,
~Ann
Hello all,
I am using an iPhone 7+ running the latest iOS version. After you add a new page in the One Note app, where do you actually type the note? When I select new page all I see is a couple of edit fields. One is for the page title and the other is for the page date. However I don't see where to type the actual note.
Regards,
Greg Wocher
The option to create a playlist doesn't seem to be available, but before giving up on the matter I thought I'd ask the Applevis pros. Thanks in advance for your answer.
