[Electronics-talk] New reading machine and new OCR softwareforiPhone

[Ray Foret Jr]

I too have had good luck with Apple refunds. Now, yes, true I have only had to request one one refund. But, what I mentioned that it was for accessibility reasons, they gave me a refund and it did not take long to process through.

Sincerely,
The Constantly barefooted Ray,

Still a very happy Mac, Verizon Wireless iPhone 6+ and Apple TV user!

Sent from my iPhone,
the only smart phone with full accessibility for the blind built-in

>>> I'm not sure if this will ever change in Apple, but you can return anything you purchase from the Google Play Store within two hours and get a full refund. This is obviously especially nice if you want to check out an apps accessibility before getting stuck with the bill. BTW, Apple does allow a similar option in countries where the law requires merchants to accept returns for a full refund within a certain time frame.
