Hello,
The subject says everything: I am searching for a brand of scales that works over bluetooth or wifi and is accessible with iOS and also integrates in the health app...... a connection with amazon Alexa would be a + :D
Thanks

Hello,
I am looking for a scale that I could use as a totally blind person and that would record the measurements on the iPhone.
Thanks,

Hello audio lovers!
I have 2 really good speakers connected to my Apple TV through an audio receiver from Marantz. I love the speakers, I love the sound, but the receiver frequently causes issues. As far as I know the receiver itself does not have any accessibility features and last time I tried the app it was a horrible experience. Consequently, if something stops working I need a sighted person to help sort things out *sigh*

Hello,
Can someone please recommend a good and accessable weight scale? I am looking for one that will sync with an accessable app on my iPhone. I’ve read plenty of good things about the Fitbit Aria but not sure if it’s accessable.
I ended up returning Weight Guru because it wasn’t that accessable. The app was great and accessable but the scale itself was not. For instance, you would need to point your device’s camera for it to sync. This is silly since it’s suppose to be Bluetooth. It was a hit or miss and I figured the frustration wasn’t worth it.

Hi,
I want to buy a smart casting fish finder. the device I am looking at is connected to the iPhone, but I don't know if I will be able to read the information that appear on the screen, such as the depth of the water, presence of fish, temperature of the water etc I know that the question is a little uncommon, but the answer is important to me.
Thank you,
Jorge

Does anyone know of an app that I can get, and the necessary hardware for it, that will give me the current indoor and outdoor temperatures. It must be Voice-over friendly. Thanks.

Hello,
Currently I have Protect America as my home alarm monitoring service but their app is not accessable and trying to get them to understand is all but impossible. So my contract is about to expire and I will be looking for a new provider. So does anyone out there have any recommendations? Is the app provided accessable? I have a GE Simon XT GSM so it should work with most monitoring services but if I need to get new equipment, that’s fine too.

In our house we have a wall clock which also shows the current indoor and outdoor temperatures on the LCD display. We often look at it to decide in the summertime whether or not to open the windows and turn on the attic fan to cool down the house. Unfortunately, as my vision has gotten worse, I can no longer make out what is on the display, and I haven’t found any apps that can successfully read the display for me (neither Seeing AI nor Envision AI will do it). So, for now I have to rely on sighted assistance if I want to know what the current temperature is.

Hello, everyone. I am seeking some input about slow cookers and IOS apps used to control them. I've read some info about the instant pot line. Is that the best for accessibility? I recall a poster saying that sighted assistance was needed for initial setup. Is this still true, or can you use something like Be my Eyes to accomplish this? I am buying this as a special valentine's day gift, for someone who has little to no vision. Thanks for any input, anyone can provide.

Hi guys,
Does anyone have experience using a smart grill app for a tabletop/countertop grill you'd use in your kitchen? These apps will keep track of your food while you cook and notify you when the food is finished. Here's one of the grills:

Any experience with the accessibility of these apps would be appreciated.

I have so many questions about Smart devices and how it all works. So I was hoping that creating a jumbo thread could bring all of the answers together in one place!
First things first, which hub seems to work the best?
What are the differences between Apple, Google, and the Amazon smart home hubs? I am leaning towards Amazon Alexa because there are so many fun things to add and play around with, but is it as accessible?

Hi all,
I'm looking for a Smart Plug, accessible from an iPhone, which I can control using VoiceOver, and which also allows me to retrieve data about the power drawn from the plug. This is mainly to determine the power consumption of devices such as washing machines, tumble dryers, electric cookers, (including slow cookers and air fryers), etc.
Many thanks for any info,
Tim Pennick

I've been seriously thinking about buying a smart scale, both for the extra data it can store and for autonomy, as I wouldn't need any sighted help to know the metrics.
But how accessible are them, both the device itself and it's respective app / other app I can use to track it's data? Xiaomi and Onron called my attention for their prices, but I have no idea how their apps actually perform with the smart scale.

Which is the best smart scale to get which can connect to your iPhone by wifi or bluetooth? I've not seen any posts about this for a couple of years. Ideally I'd like one that can work with the Fitbit app, though I understand Fitbit's layouts less these days: so I'd be happy if it worked with Apple's Health app at least. I want to measure body fat as part of a bit of a weight loss drive and my confidence in products is low as each one seems to have its quirks or inaccessible bits. Also, is expensive better with this type of product?

Hi everyone,
I am looking in to a smart Thermostat for my home and am in between 2 of them and would like some suggestions from a usability side of things. Either the Nest 3rd Generation or the ecobee3. Any tips would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

I am considering replacing the thermostats in my house with smart thermostats. Does anyone here have any experience with this and do you know which ones have companion iPhone apps that are Voice Over friendly?

hello. Has anyone in here used a Sole F80 folding treadmill? And or the application? The app seems to be at least mostly accessible. I don't want to buy the treadmill which is pretty expensive without knowing that other blind people have been able to use it and sync it properly with the application. Also, if you know of any other treadmills that sync with iOS applications please let me know. I considered a pro-form which can sync with iFit Coach software, but I said cost $15 a month which is way too expensive in my opinion. thanks a lot in advance.
