[@kimlackey4135]

Thanks Sam! I have been living under a rock and never knew about this. Lol

[@BlindGuyShow]

Very interesting. I can see how this could be helpful.

[@celinejames2684]

Hi there nice video I have a question will the budget wireless Bluetooth earphones work with VoiceOver on iPhone and will it have any latency issue thank you

[@santoshikotla6846]

Thank you

[@karolyncampbell7368]

Great video! I continue to learn so much from you and am able to share with others who are blind and have ow vision, like me and those who have great vision and help us when needed. The question I have is do you know how to troubleshoot one computer from another? When I have computer challenges with my laptop and I am not near my husband it is great if he can troubleshoot and help me solve them if he is not right next to me.. When I have computer challenges with my laptop and I am not near my husband it is great if he can troubleshoot and help me solve them if he is not right next to me. Looking forward to suggestions. Thank you.

[@theblindlife]

I would think some type of program that would allow your husband to remote into your computer would help in the situation. Something like team viewer. He would be able to access your computer from his computer.

[@pfundoralulimi1689]

Will you be able to do this tutorial hile using a screen reader please

[@emaillisas]

Great job as always. Unfortunately, although Microsoft brags about the feature, the only thing you can do with an iPhone is send a webpage from the iPhone to the Windows PC. To do that you have to install edge on your iPhone. What a waste of my time. Still grateful to know about the feature so I can help others who have android phones. Thanks as always.

[@nancyurquilla2937]

So as an iPhone user I would not be able to use the features that he demonstrated in the video? That's sad.

[@kennarickels9923]

😊 I was hoping can you show me how to set up dark mode😅😅😅 on my older Toshiba that runs Vista and TalkBack

[@kennarickels9923]

God bless you I was just traveling through KZbin and ran across your video with having surgery in 2 weeks but need a way I can use I don't know how to set it up because I can't see it I rely on my phone for everything and dark mode because we talk back and assistant of an older Toshiba laptop TalkBack and dark mode on my laptop severe glaucoma very little eyesight you so much 59 year old grandma

[@blind4howie]

I have a suggestion info video about Windows 11, I know when new updates come out sometimes soon text or other programs Take 6 months to be compatible with new versions of Windows to something to check. So one of the videos to make next is new features in Windows 11, accessibility and changes that affect VIPs

[@connierifenburg9758]

Sam, please tell me what you use as an iPad that is so large? I just bought a 12.9 iPad 2021. But it doesn’t look like that BIG iPad you hold up. Please let me know how you got such a huge iPad? I have glaucoma AND wet macular degeneration. I used my 10” iPad all the time because I can’t see my 55” unless I sit about dinner plate away from it. With my Ipad I can sit in my recliner and move my screen as close as I need. I’ll be checking back to hear from you. Thanks Sam I just found your site about a month ago and love it.

[@theblindlife]

Thank you, I’m glad you’re enjoying the videos! I believe mine is the 2019 iPad Pro, 12.9 inch. It’s the largest size iPad they make. It might just look bigger on the videos! They say the camera adds 10 pounds, maybe that’s true for iPads also, lol!

[@connierifenburg9758]

@@theblindlife Thanks Sam. It does seem that the screen makes things look larger. I just purchased a12.9 2021 iPad Pro, so that is what I am using most times now. I love the size of the screen and it really helps seeing everything without blowing it up so large I have to move the screen around to see it. My only complaint is it is very heavy for me. I might mention here that I am 70 years old and have Rheumatoid arthritis as well as osteoarthritis which cripple my hands, so the advantage of the 10.7 size iPad was that it was much easier for me to maneuver. I guess that’s the trade-off right now. Thanks again Sam for answering me so quickly. I receive all of your notifications now and look forward to each posting. Have a good day.😀

[@bsod404Windows]

its work in any android phone??

[@ajaxon98]

Are you sure this app works for the iPhone? I went through the steps described and the app only mentions Android.

[@Npcname6969]

Nice vid

[@billholton5024]

Is there any way to do this using your screen reader?

[@theblindlife]

Check out the comment left by Terry Sutherland. He talks about using a screen reader with this program.

[@creakyblox]

What about for windows 11

[@storytimewithunclekumaran5004]

Sam i sent you a email asking about internet function on blindshell classic in Canada... You never answered my email asking to see a video showing the internet on the blindshell classic using the browser.. can you answer my email please.. i contacted the company .they say it has the internet but I have never seen it... thanks man.

[@theblindlife]

Sorry about that, I didn’t receive your most recent email. I haven’t seen the phone since December of last year, so don’t know if they’ve updated it. The last time I saw it, it did not have a mobile browser. I will see if I can get more information on this.

[@storytimewithunclekumaran5004]

@@theblindlife great news .. the local C.N.I.B. here called me back and i heard the phone over the phone go onto the internet...yay.. we are booking a appointment to go to the big city to see a demo on the unit with the rep who sells them.. its the latest version literally months old.. thanks for all your videos and help chasing this down..if we buy it i will report back about it..F.Y.I. The unit costs around 500 dollars Canadian plus taxes..

[@matinf3045]

Hi bro I link my a21s samsung phone with my pc Then just i have access to : message Notifs And Photos Call But i dont have acces to my apps How can i fix it?

[@theblindlife]

I would make sure to go into the settings of the your phone app to see if that needs to be enabled. Also make sure your computer is linked with your phone. There should be a quick toggle in your pull down notification panel.

[@Blueballon]

I need to be able to access the phone without a working SCREEN.. but all the programs to do so seems so sketchy

[@C1nnam0nr0ll_sanri0]

what if phone is not with you? trying to help my grandpa he does not live with me but i cant keep running to his house anytime he has a issue ???

[@dontmindbeingblindd]

But is it accessible for screen readers?

[@theblindlife]

Check out a comment left by Terry Sutherland on this video. He talks about screen readers with this program and gives great information.

[@jamesdean6939]

It is accessible with JAWS and NVDA, although the settings categories for the Your Phone application itself all say "not selected" with NVDA, even after pressing enter on them, I don't think space works to select them. You just have to press tab to see which category is selected if you aren't sure. I can't figure out how to get to Apps button with a screen reader. You can use the Alt+1 through Alt+4 keystrokes to jump between Notifications, Messages, Photos and Calls respectively, which is nice. I saw the comment about using Dex to have Screen Reader access to the Apps on the phone, now if somebody could tell me how to get to that Apps button, I could use this to its fullest potential. No thanks to Apple for locking their OS down to the point where you have to use a paid software solution to accomplish anything like this.

[@natashanowick9381]

Sam, the Your Phone app does not show on phone App access, why is that.... Only Notification, Messages, photos, Calls, and Contacts....

[@theblindlife]

It could be that the type of phone you’re using doesn’t allow that feature. Apparently Samsung lets you do more than other phones, like the Google pixel for example.

[@jamesdean6939]

Ah, this answers my earlier question, I have a Pixel 5A, not a Samsung, so that's why I don't see that button or anything about it in settings.

[@Forever___61]

Windows 11?

[@user-jk4nz4oi6w]

I think it is neat that Microsoft has allowed users to access their phone on windows... Too bad this doesn't work well with iPhones...

[@angiealdana14]

I believe that it It’s only meant for android I tried connecting my iPhone to it and it wouldn’t do anything

[@eldar_windycity]

Does this make your phone run faster?

[@user-kc8dq7vk7j]

Very useless
