I'm curious, how do you use VoiceOver activities?

Wow! It sounds like you get a lot of use out of them!

I could see where you would need to switch languages for apps and websites for example.

Now that you mention it, I see your point about navigation and transport apps.

I never thought about slower speeds in news apps.

I have to ask 2 things though.

1. If I may ask, which word processors do you use punctuation changes with? I ask because I have a few different word processors. Some I've used and some not. The ones I have that I've used to some extent are: Microsoft Word, (Although I must admit, I have not used this one in a while) Voice Dream Writer, which, I use almost all the time, and, Drafts 5. The ones I have but have not used yet are: Noted, Simple Note, Google Docs, and I think there might be one that I'm forgetting, but, the name escapes me at the moment.

2. Are the audio apps you disable audio-ducking for radio, music streaming services, or, podcatchers? Because if so, I could see where that would come in handy at times. Like if I'm listening to music, while I get some writing done.

Thank you for your help and insights! It sounds like you have a lot of creative uses for activities. Especially using them as a workaround for a bug in WhatsApp!

Wow! That's awesome!

I'm not sure if I'd want to change my voice. But, I could see where that would be a good idea if say, Tessa pronounces some words/phraises better than others.

Yeah, I was wondering this too. I remember somewhere in the back filing cabinets in my brain hearing that you could create activities, then sarect the activities setting on the rotor, and that would be that. But, that's cool that you have options!
I'm trying to listen to Thomas's podcast on activities.

It sounds like there's some braille options there also. Which, will be great for me. Because, I hope to be getting some braille equipment at some point.

Thank you for this! :-)

Wow! Thank you for this!

I think I might look into doing this for my word processors. Because I use different processors for different needs.
Drafts I use as my version of a sighted person pad of paper where they can just pick up a pen real quick and take notes. VoiceDream Writer gets used for the more heavy writing projects.

I'll have to try disabling audio-ducking in ambient noise apps. I have a few of these on my Ipad but, I haven't tried them yet. Never thought of disabling audio-ducking on them though. :-)

Wow! I could see where that would work! I never thought of doing that! :-)

Thank you for the idea! :-)

I have to agree with you! These are some interesting ideas! :-) I feel like I have practically endless possibilities here! :-) almost like with short cuts! :-)

I will say, but like you, I had never thought of having an activity for a text revision and editing. But now that I think about it, and now that somebody’s put the idea in my head and in writing, I could see how that would be useful.
