Hi, I am here for my husband who is totally blind. Using iPhone 6. Since the update last week, he has been unable to read Twitter Moments on the Search and Explore tab. Voiceover will read the main ad, then the headings titles, but not the individual items. It says either 'actions available' or occasionally another comment about swiping with two fingers to read the screen. Sometimes it will say 'possible text' then read the last line of the individual item. It also completely jumps over the 'Show more' sections.

Does anyone know how it's possible that I'm missing an app in the storage screen of the Settings app on my iPad with the most actual IOS11?
This app is 8MB with around 2-2.5GB of data in more than 100.000 small files. In IOS10 I didn't have that prob.

Hi everyone, I know I haven't posted in a while, but I have one quick question. I recently got into the idea of videoing, and when I video, it's supposed to tell me if I am in focus or not, example, one face, center, but it doesn't. I have tried turning off lock orientation, raising brightness, everything, and I just finished resetting my phone, but no luck. Hopefully one of you can help. Thanks, for the reference, I have an iPhone 6, running the latest version of iOS.

The eidt field in favourites has disappeared over the last two or three versions of the app and I cannot find another means to rearrange station order. Have advised the app developer but they don't seem to be in a hurry to fix this issue using voiceover.

So, I'm planing to start making some recordings and possibly broadcasting them to a podcast. They will be mostly musical covers, versions and maybe compositions if I can get the hang of it. As such, I'll need something which can mix up stuff, add effects, change panning, etc.
Hokusai seems pretty straightforward and it's premium package, which would include these features I need, isn't that expensive. I have some questions though:

Hi all, I'm observing that voiceover only reads photo captions in certain situations when browsing through my photo library. I was wondering if anyone else is able to reproduce this bug and if so, has found a workaround.
TLDR summary:
Voiceover reads captions if I receive photos that are captioned and add them to my library, but fails to identify captions if I have added the captions to photos that were initially taken on my device. I've outlined what I'm talking about in greater detail below.

Is anyone using the Directv iPad app? I now have an iPad mini 3. On the touch 5G, I oculd easily scroll through lists of channels by running one finger down the right side to skip from 1-50, 51-100, or by letter, etc. Now I can certainly use a three finger gesture to scroll, but I seem to have to go page by page and its a lot slower.
Does anyone have any suggestions for scrolling through a large list of channels on this app more quickly? Is there perhaps an iPad VoiceOver gesture that I don't know?

Hi guys! Although I've been using iOS for almost two years, I haven't used the native Music app. All I do is using the File Sharing option in iTunes and copy my music to Foobar 2000. But recently, someone asked me if I could copy something to his iPhone. It turned out to be a New Testament audio Bible, with 27 separate folders and flac files for each book contained in the dedicated folder for the book.

Hello to all,
I am trying to assist a friend who is working to make an app more accessible via the Ios platform. I would like to provide him resources in terms of developers to contact who can assist with some of the more coding specific discussions that I am not familiar with.
Can anyone point me in a direction toward a developer who might wish to assist? I have attempted to contact AFB for instance in the hope that the development team for access note and career connect might assist and have to date been unable to get to talk to anyone.
Thanks for any thoughts.

Surely, at least some of you have encountered the following situation. Your sighted relative/friend wants to know how to do this or that on their iPhone. You try to explain it to them and they say, "I don't see anywhere." You finally come to realize that your verbal VoiceOver representation is, for them, some graphical symbol or other which you can't see.
How do you guys help the sighted person figure out their phone in those situations? Is there anywhere where I can find explanations ofthe graphical symbols and their locations onscreen that are represented by verbal VoiceOver cues?

These are apps I use for either reading something or getting some help. TapTapSee is my first go to app to do something quickly. Check the temp on my remote control or quickly read food or packages. For food I use digit eyes and again if that doesn't work for me or I get impatient scanning I go back to TapTapSee. I use KNFB to read mail or flyers. If I need sighted assistance, I use one of 2 apps. Either bespecular or the be my eyes app. I had issues with that be my eyes app for a bit but its improved drastically.

Ok guys, maybe worth not updating to V552.0.0 if you haven't already. Just updated and the back button has vanished if you go into a post. The only way I've found to come out of a post is either turn on SR which I hate in FB or use the scrub gesture. That does seem to work but it doesn't seem to work everytime not sure why.

This is a great find! I prefer learning from documentation rather than podcasts. Though the Applevis podcasts are great, for me, I often have questions a podcast doesn't answer.
And some documentation online isn't much better. They have a firm grasp in the obvious: "go to settings to change your preferences" or "press the add item button to add a new item".

I know this is late, but I didn't have a lot of time to work with it last week. For those of us who were already using Workflow, and might not have had a lot of time to play, here are the differences I've noticed between that and Shortcuts
You can now use the drag and drop commands in the rotor to reorder shortcuts in your library. Also, if your shortcut accepts input, and you're using an iPad, you can drop things onto a shortcut and have it run with what you dropped as input.

I am trying to figure out an issue for a coworker. Their Hey Siri has stopped functioning. They are running iOS11.3.1. So far we have tried rebooting the device as well as turning the feature off and back on, which required a re-training for Hey Siri. Any other suggestions of why the feature has stopped working. I personally don't use it and admit I'm a bit at a loss myself, but I'm sure others here do. Here's to hoping someone has a tip or trick my team and I have not yet though of.
Thanks.

My friend has a 6S and she's still running iOS 12. When she wants to read a text message with hey siri on the lock screne, it says you'll need to unlock your iPhone first. She went into notifications and then into messages and the setting was set to show previews always default but she's still having the same issue. Any help would be appreciated.
