I will be doing some traveling that will require me to fly in order to reach my destination. Can somebody give me some tips about the best way to protect the i-phone on the plane so that when i get to where i'm going, it won't be in tons of peaces. Will the i-phone be erased if I put it through the x-ray thing at the airport?

Hello.
I would like to get better at typing on the on screen keyboard. Quick typing is not an option because this is in swedish. I cannot seem to get the hang of it and I know lots of blind people who th:ink it is a piece of cake. Any tips for me to be able to do this efficiently? This is a very stupid question, I know. I am using braille input on screen but would like to do touch typing fast too..

So, today, I tried using Apple Pay for the first time in 2 different stores.
I had very limited success.
The issue was that I couldn't get card readers (in either store!) to read my phone when it was both near and even on top of them!
Practically every other blind person I hear about tells all of us how EASY it all is!
So, am I missing something?
Any tips/tricks?

Hi all,
I'm in the process of upgrading from an iPhone SE 2020 to an iPhone 16 Pro, and I'm having a really hard time using face ID. My sighted mother had to help me set it up because I couldn't get it to work, but I've tried to unlock the phone several times since getting it set up, and only somehow managed to get it to unlock once. Does anyone have any tips for getting the phone to unlock reliably using face ID?

Hello everyone
I manage product accessibility at Intuit and have been working with the TurboTax team to make the web site and apps accessible. I wanted to give you some tips for this year's taxes.
TurboTax Online and TurboTax iOS should give you a great, accessible experience. I haven't found any serious bugs in the past few releases. That being said, I always appreciate feedback: ted_drake@intuit.com.

You maybe know the app Seeingassistant-home which including color identify, light detector, barcode recognizing etc. Do you know and would like to give other tips of apps like this? Maybe there's other apps with some accessible functions that is helpful for visually impaired and blind people. It's also important to know when, where and which ones who will use it in daily life.
I'm really happy to get more and more apps for blind.

Do any of you have tips, ideas or templates you can share with me as I try to communicate with app developers regarding accessibility issues? Like most of us, I don't know the language of the app developer, but if I download some app and I see a problem, I need to report it to them. I have one app that has a weird layout, and I have another that just needs to get an update to improve Voice-over support. I want to advise these people, but I want to know what to do short of taking a course in app development. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

Anyone have any tips orrecommended bots that can make navigating Discord for a first time user? I say first time, but I've dabbled with it before, but it wasn't enough to remember anything except how to DM someone.

Hav VoiceOver users tried live-streaming to IG or FB? If so, please share tips or tricks to making this a smooth and successful experience? What got me down this rabbit hold was setting up and trying Livestream to Facebook or Instagram on Ray-Ban Meta smart glasses, which wants to connect to the glasses sometimes or start go live sometimes.

I'd really appreciate any advice on how to best navigate the stations in any genre of iTunes Internet Radio with JAWS, version 14 in my case.

The joy and fear of having an IPhone at last in your hand is awesome! More when you've been hearing podcasts for the last 3 or so years, visualizing how you'd do the gestures while listening to the audio demos, and visualizing all the neat things you can do with one of these.
This came true for me on July 12 of this year, only weeks after being able to briefly, try out an IPHone IPhone at the equivalent to an Apple store here in Mexico, called Mac Store. The experience of being able to work a talking phone out of the box was awesome!

Having not seen this mentioned already on here, I am wondering if it's something specific to my configuration. But here goes anyway - for what feels like since iOS 14 was released, VoiceOver's image description feature insists on telling me that nearly every image is a screenshot of a weather forecast.
This is primarily when viewing images in Twitterrific, as this is my main use case for this feature.
So, is anybody else seeing this or something similar, or is it just me?

Hello everyone. Hope you’re well. I have a question for everyone, especially people who resides in the island of Great Britain. What text to speech do you guys use, and which one is the closest to the real UK English? Because I love the American voices, but I wanted to have a little change in my iPhone. So if you could guide me. That would be really grateful. Cheers people.

Hello
1 of a couple of things I love about IOS 13 and above is the ability to change finger gestures. My question is this:
Can one change the gesture: "Double tap with 1 finger and hold, then swipe up."
This is the gesture one uses when you want to create a voice note within Whatsapp?

I'm trying to decide if I should jailbreak my iPhone 4S. I am wondering if accessibility will still be there in the form of are there any apps that are accessible and is it even worth it.
Thanks,

okay, I have an eight GB four S. It is running the latest IOS seven. My question is should I update it to 8.1? yes, I know it will slow the phone down, but my question is, how much? is it going to be so slow that it will make me want to toss it at a wall? or just a little laggy here and there? anyone have any advice for me? yes I know it's up to me, but I prefer to get input before I do it.
