thermostat that works with Iphone
Kay Malmquist
Hi all,
It looks like one of our talking Thermostats has
died at least on the AC side of things. So now, if there is no fix to it,
we'd like to get a good Thermostat that works through WI-Fi or homekit or
something like that. I know there has been a lot of discussion but you
know how it is when you know that this will happen but sometime in the
future. Yes, I somewhat paid attention but not fully. Any
recommendations as to what is best and what I should invest in? It can
even be used with the A lady but I really want to be able to access it with my
iPhone even from another place. Any ideas are appreciated.

heather albright
Hello, I see a lot of so called accessible
recumbent therapy bikes out there however, I have not found any that are truely blind friendly for at home use! So for those who are blind and have this type of bike, which ones do you use? I do not need the large LCD display or something to monitor the heart, speed, miles etc. Thanks Heather

Don't say that? Why not? You're in good company! I've been falling asleep to a book all day. Pam.

Advice about tripods for newer iPhone models, please
Sharon Hooley
Hi,
I have a tripod I sometimes use with my old iPhone 5s. I tried to get my XR into it, but either it's so difficult or impossible. Should I get another tripod that will work? I like to have my hands- free for things like making videos and Be My Eyes. Thanks, Is it hard to communicate, even with hearing aids? Visit www.CochlearAmericas.com

i don't know about other companies but sandisk has flash drives just for phones. They have others for phone or camera.

A search on amazon will find them.

However, for use in Android Land, please consider giving SocialOne a good whack! Grab it from this URL: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.asama.portafolio&hl=en_US SocialOne might be the only client app you need for Facebook, Instagram and Twitter. It is a free app; whack it hard and make it your friend. Hope this info is helpful; take care. Sincerely, Olusegun Denver, Colorado

I’m not sure, but I think the newer generation iPads are more flexible with connecting flash drives. Victor

Hi Melissa, Gold Wave will do the trick for you. I use Karaoke files and some of them are not in an optimal key for me. I use the pitch change option under the effects menu (alt + C for effects menu followed by P for pitch change.) You can either change by percentage or by tone. The tone change is most intuitive. They give you 4 choices for semi-tone: C to B (down one half step.) C to C Sharp (up one half step) C to D (up one step.) and D to C (down one step.) They also give you choices for up one octave or down one octave and if you want an odd number of step change such as a minor third (up/down one and a half steps,) you can use the half step up/down item to move the desired number of steps. Good luck. On 6/1/2020 1:40 PM, Melissa wrote: Hello group. Has anyone had any experience with using an accessible-- They Ask Me If I'm Happy; I say Yes. They ask: "How Happy are You?"

GoldWave, is, of course, purchased software. Audacity, the free, reasonably accessible, audio editing software will do the trick just fine.

I hve not used it, but note that it has the word “camera” in the link. I doubt you can use this device to put daisy or other talking books on your iphone. I would like to be wrong.

Has anyone used this apple lightning to USB adapter, in order to connect USB flash drives and other accessories to your iPads or iPhones? The link is:
I did read for connecting some accessories, you have to first plug the adapter into the iPad or iPhone, then into a USB hub, and then plug the flash drive or whatever you want to use into the USB hub and then it will work. My last question is, will the iPad let you manage such drives such as formatting as fat32, etcetera?
