Apple Hardware and Compatible Accessories

hello guys
my iPhone was in a small bag which unfortunately fell in a swimming pool 6 days ago
now It works well but the problem is the censor which controls the speaker volume when placing a call or "raise to speak" when calling Siri
when placing a call, the speaker doesn't work regularly and I couldn't turn off the call. besides, when using Siri, sometimes Its voice gets into the upper sound which is controlled by the censor
what should I do now? and is there a test to examine the censor or prepare it?
or there is other problem?

I have an Apple Watch 7 and wonder if it is worth updating to the new Apple Watch 9.

I use Voiceover and am wondering if there is any benefit to updating.

Thanks.

Good afternoon, colleagues! Is there any kind of detailed guide for changing the battery of iPhones for people who can't see? I am asking this because the tutorials we find on the internet, mostly in video format, do not explain in much detail what should be done based on someone who is not seeing anything. I'm trying to change the battery of my iPhone 4s, for example, because it's not possible to take it to Apple due to the age of the device, but I can't even find some of the screws needed to remove the component, lol!

Does anyone know how to change the volume on the second pair of airpods pro when sharing audio with someone else? Apple seems to say that you should be able to see both sets of headphones and change the volume independently but I can't seem to do this with any ease. I have done it in the past but more by luck than judgment I think and when you connect a second pair, the folume level on it is always significantly quieter than on the pair connected to the iPhone that is doing the sharing.

Hi All,

I was wondering, is anyone using the CharaChorder? It's a fascinating alternative to the quirty keyboard that's supposed to give the average user more than 200 words per minute typing, and for some, over 500 words per minute, and it's done all by touch. No sight. Just touch. Here's the link to an Apple News article about it:

If anyone is using it, I would love to hear about your experience.

Is there a way to charge the Apple Watch without the Apple Watch charger? I seem to have forgotten my charger and I’m somewhere else. Is there a way to charge the watch with any other Apple cord?

Ever since i was a kid and had a bad experience over charging an old Braille display, I've always been paranoid about if I charge it right etc. Here's my question. I touch the watch and it says charging 100% 14% so what's that about? It can't be the standing activity since it's not on my wrist and it was only eight percent that time I had it on. Help would be great. series eight latest watch OS.

Hello,

I am searching for a cheap smartbant that I can use with my iPhone. The most important feature is the ability to give notifications (vibrations) for new events on my iphone.

Does anyone have some suggestions?

Thanks

Hi all. I'm having a little trouble finding the battery status for my Airpods on both the phone and Mac. Mac, I can't at all, the phone, I don't know if I misunderstood david's directions. Now that I have them in, i'll listen again. If anyone can help, I'd appreciate it.

Hello all,

I've been having a problem with the lightning port on my iPhone 5s. For the last year or so, I have observed that the connection isn't stable. my phone will not charge unless I move the cable around a little bit or it will stop charging if I jostle the cable. I also feel some resistance when I try to push the connector into the port. I'm thinking the port is either wearing out or has some crud stuck in it. I've had the phone for nearly four and a half years now. What would you guys recommend using to clean the port?

I shall soon be upgrading from an iPhone 8 to an iPhone 14 Pro. I presume that the dimensions are different, so I shall obviously be needing a new case.

I currently have an Otterbox case and I am looking for something wit the same kind of protection.

i'll post the site here. i have an iPhone 13 pro max so i can't get this. however i was just wondering if anybody else has this and if so what it's like?

Hi,
A company called Clicks technologies has recently launched a keyboard attachment for IPhones, seemingly emulating the old blackbery phone experience. The product requires no extra battery power, but it draws in power via the bottom charging port of the IPhone. It seems to be a normal silicon style soft cover for your IPhone, slightly elongated towards the bottom, where the keyboard resides.
I myself haven't tried the product yet, but those who are in US, I would apreciate if anyone can give it a shot and let us know the usibility with voiceover.

So, I'm really into my coffee. I use an aeropress, get fresh roasts from the couple of little coffee houses near me and generally get an okay brew. What I'm looking for now is a means of weighing my coffee and water. I know there are talking scales, but I really don't know how good they are, how suited to coffee making they are and they are generally significantly more expensive than smart kitchen scales.

I was wondering if anyone had any thoughts on product with accessible apps?

I'm in the UK so this will have some bearing on what I can purchase.

Hello everyone

Have just recently purchased an Apple Watch SE and I'm really enjoying my experience so far. However, because I wear two hearing aids, I am looking for advice on which Bluetooth headphones would be best suited for hearing aid users.

firstly, they would need to be
)comfortable) I.E. not admitting (feedback) from the hearing aids when the headphones are over my ears. This is my main concern.

Hello,
I'm searching for a compact Bluetooth keyboard, maybe foldable, that works with VoiceOver on iOS but also with Windows 10 and NVDA. Furthermore, I want to get rid of Mini-USB and Lightning cables wherever possible. So I try to buy USB-C-devices.
Any ideas, suggestions or recommendations?
Thanks in advance!

Hi all. I just found out that I'm eligible for a discounted upgrade through my carrier, so I'm considering getting a better phone. Right now, I have the iPhone SE 2020. I got it since it was free and my first introduction to iPhones, but now I want something better. My carrier, Cricket Wireless, has phones all the way up to the iPhone 13 Pro Max, and I'm not sure what to get. I don't care about the screen since I'm totally blind, but I want it to have a decent camera for scanning products, text, and things like that.

I have the opportunity to get a new iPhone, because my 6+ is five years old and about to die on me.
I would like feedback on the 8+, and any versions of iPhone 10 or 11.
I'm leaning toward the 8+ because it's less expensive, and it still has a home button.
Is there any reason accessibilitywise to go for the newer and more expensive phones?
Are there any features in these newer models that would convince me to keep saving for the new ones?
Any opinions welcome.
Thank you.
