Well, to make things not look so bad, you can proofread just fine in braille, and put punctuation in your rotor so you can switch between them easily. Sent from my Mac. Devin Prater r.d.t.pra...@gmail.com > On May 20, 2016, at 6:34 AM, Kimber Gardner > wrote: > > And that&#

Re: The Top 10 Things I'd like in iOS 10

Okay, here I go. I'd like there to be an "expert" mode, where • JIT is usable in all apps • Apps can be sideloaded and other app stores, like cydia, can be installed • filesystem is exposed to the user within an app • There are more keyboard commands, and all of iOS can be controlled with the key

JIT is the “just in time” compiler. Basically, it makes app that require a lot of compiling of non-native code, to run a lot faster. This allows some games that open other code not shipped with the app to run faster, like emulators for game systems. Sent from my Mac. Devin Prater r.d.t.pra

Re: Command for showing and hiding keyboard with braille display

One more thing. If the virtual keyboard is display while using a braille display, it is much easier to use spelling corrections when "check spelling" is enabled in keyboard settings. Just backspace the space from the word you want to correct, and the focus is automatically brought to the menu. T

Re: Siri

I agree. I *never* use Siri for much. I usually just set alarms and the time. Otherwise, I just pull out the phone and do whatever needs done. Siri isn't yet accurate enough for texting and emailing for me. "Marie" writes: > I am probably going to be unpopular when I say this but... > Are we want

You can make a screenshot using home+sleep/wake (lock button,) then use TapTapSee on that image. If you’re lucky, the sighted person, or bot, or whatever they use nowadays, will know that you want the captcha code. Sent from my Mac. Devin Prater r.d.t.pra...@gmail.com > On Jun 9, 2016, at

Yes, home+power screenshots the whole screen. The screenshot is saved in your photo library, so go to TapTapSee, click the library button, then select the latest photo available in the list of all photos on the device. Sent from my Mac. Devin Prater r.d.t.pra...@gmail.com > On Jun 9, 2

Re: WWDC event, was it yesterday?

Sure, but little things add up to big changes. Siri gets integrated into predictive text, so she can suggest better options there, like I'm at (suggests input of location into the text)" and stuff like that. Siri is open to developers, so apps can allow Siri to use their functionality from anywh
