[Nfb-krafters-korner] Apple Ap for color management

[Annette Carr]

The first time you turn on Voice Over (VO) you will need someone sighted to
go into Settings, General, Accessibility, Voice Over and turn on Voice Over.
After this, you can use a 3-finger double tap to toggle VO on and off. Be
aware, that a 3-finger triple tap will toggle the screen curtain on and off.
This turns off your screen so that others cannot see what you are doing via
the screen.

If you are going to try the color ap, let us know if it is truly useful.  I
currently have an iPad and it does not have a camera.

Do any of you i-Phone users have a quick way to turn "Voice Over" on and
off?  If you have to go through the menus, how do you do that after voice is
turned off?

I got an i-Phone for Christmas and am so excited - I feel like a "normal"
girl- well...almost normal! (smile)

If you have an iPhone, you might find this color management ap helpful when
working with matching and coordinating colors of yarn and material.  Below
is the review I found on the Apple Vis website under the Ap category of
Lifestyle.  To read about this ap and many other and there accessibility for
voice over users, visit URL:

Once you've taken the picture, turn Voiceover off, touch the center of the
screen and turn Voiceover on again. Flick backward until the color is
announced.
