iPhone and iPad

Hey friends.
I sometimes get PDF documents with texts as images and I can't read those with my current tools.
A friend of mine uses Kurzweil for that. I haven't heard any other solution. I normally tell the people who sent me the document that it is not accessible and ask them to send it to me in a different way.
Is there any app or software or solution that reads that has a good OCR that can read those documents?

I am wanting to record, and upload pod casts using my phone. I use a iphone 5, with voice over. I'll likely want to edit it on my pc, adding in liners, that sort of thing. I'm looking for an accessable salution for that end as well, but that's a different matter.
Any help on this would be of great help

Hello everyone,
For fathers day I received an iTunes gift card. How can I add that to my account using my phone? I thought there was a way. I listened to a podcast from 2013 on the site but my iTunes store looked nothing like what was described in the podcast.

Thanks,

I recently reset all my settings to try and fix tts pronunciations not working on recommendation of a friend (it didn’t work but that’s not what this post is about,) and ever since then when I go to enter a password on my iPhone, the prompt to autofill the password or create a new password isn’t appearing. Luckily it still works on my iPad since I’ve not reset its settings, but how do I get it to work again on my phone? Thank you in advance.

I guess like most people I try all sorts of apps many of which are not quite what you think and don't work well with VoiceOver.

I delete them on the device which of course puts them into the Purchased items (or as the speech will have it "purcases"). I now have about 40 pages of these altogether and would like to perminantly delete some of them, Can this be done and how?

Thanks

Hello,
I didn't mean to have an Apple cash card in the wallet but just use my normal credit card for things. How do I remove the Apple cash/Apple pay card? I must've added it by mistake, and now, I can't remove it! Any help would be appreciated.

I have been trying to reorder items in my Mix Playlist using the Downcast app with VoiceOver but can't seem to be able to do it successfully.

here are the steps I am using:

In voice over area of settings in my IPhone 4s, I encountered this rotor thing. While selecting things I want to include in my rotor, there is a reorder button besides each item. For example, I am focused on the character rotor, when I flicked to the right it says reorder, character button. I assume this will reorder the items in the rotor. But I cannot make it work. How can I use reorder in voice over rotor? Thanks.

Hello all! I hope you are all doing well!

I have a question about songs, and the Spotify app. Last night, I had some writing to do, and I wanted a song to repeat. But when I played the song, and tried to find the repeat button, it was no use. I couldn’t find the button. Which led to me having to get the previous button every time it ended. My question is, how do you get songs to repeat in the Spotify iOS app? Thank you in advance! :-)

Hello,

After updating to iOS 26, I've noticed some issues with the "Contacts" and "Phone" apps. And they were not fixed after updating to iOS 26.0.1. Here are the found issues:

1. If the dark theme is used, the page with a contact's details in the "Contacts" app or the one with a call's details (from call history) use (or at least partially) a light theme instead of the set dark one. That makes it hard to see the details in those two pages.

Hi everyone!
The thing is that on iPhone 15 Pro Max, the system does not warn about low battery in any way, including not displayed on the dynamic island, please tell me how to solve the problem?

Hi AppleVis,

When connected to a bluetooth speaker, how can I route my VoiceOver audio so that it can sound on the iPhone speaker instead of the actual speaker? I have already gone to the VoiceOver settings of my iPhone, but I cannot find anything that says to switch to iPhone speaker, which is what I want to do.

Any ideas?

Thanks for your help,
Ayub

I have and iPhone 15 Pro with the latest version of iOS 17.

I have paired my phone with my Amazon Echo device and can listen to music, podcast, etc. which is playing on my phone through the Echo device.

I would also like to hear Voiceover (and Siri if possible) speaking through my Echo device.

In prior versions of iOS I thought there was an "Audio destination" option that I could add to the rotor, but I no longer see this.

Is there some way of routing both the iPhone's audio and Voiceover to my Echo device?

Thanks.

Hi,

I started using Todoist last night.

I found out that you can add the items in your ios reminders app to todoist, by using ifttt, so just created an aplit to do just that.
However, I can't seem to figure out how to run the Aplit, so that the actions get performed.
Is anyone familiar with this process, & might be able to offer some insight?

Scheduling a Text Message

Have you ever told someone that you would text them to remind them to do something, but in the end, you ended up forgetting also! Well, with iOS 18, you can now schedule to send text messages later. So you can now, while it is still on your mind, type out and schedule that text message to be send at a later time. You can actually schedule a text message up to 14 days ahead of time.

Here is the instructions on how to schedule a text message using Voiceover.
