Welcome! This mother-son channel covers assistive technology for those with a disability and all the gadgets and tips and tricks that come our way. We specialize in products for those with sensory issues (blind/deaf) but are generalists always trying to learn new things. We advocate for more inclusive practices and embrace the philosophy of universal design so that everyone can access the world. From assistive technology tools for students like Photomath and Chrome extensions, to home aids to appliances, we want to cover it all from the lens of those with disabilities so they can make informed choices and spend their money wisely. Along the way, we'll share our journey in how we create and grow our channel. Please subscribe, like our videos, and comment to support the channel and help us bring you more quality content.

Hello, and thanks a lot for this video!!! This and part 2 of this are really useful for me!!! I have a question: is there a setting to keep the GoPro screen from closing after a few seconds? It's unpleasant to keep touching the screen while filming, to see what I'm filming.......I asked the question to several RU-vidrs but no one answered me...Thank you very much!
Hi Michael, thank you for your great video. Have you had the chance to compare the Clover 6HD with Explore 5, Ruby 5XL and Clover 5HD? I’m trying to find three best option for my mum with Macular Degeneration. Thanks! Thanks!
Just looked at your video. I DO NOT want the hourly time being spoken. Can you disable that function? I just want my mother to be able to press the button and hear the time. Thanks.
Interesting 🤔 I'm looking for 1 to help me speed up my work flow, prevent tedious spamming of the arrow buttons on the commandline, quickly switch between multiple tabs and windows, quickly moving mouse across multiple screens etc. I'm curious which version do you recommend for that?
Awesome! Thank you for this video! Question - Is it possible to have let's say 7 job lists but share only 2 of them with a particular person who I share this app with?
There doesn't seem to be a way to share lists with only one person. I have the paid version and when I tested with my 2 children, they both can see each other's lists. It seems to be a share everything only option. I mostly use this to test if a task app is appropriate for the user. There are many task apps that allow you to do more than this app allows, but this is a good starter point.
Put your hand on top of the device, and press down. I have one and had stopped using it, but don't have the manual anymore, so I came here. Very informative video instructional.
......... such outdated technology good lord. You are better of just getting an apple watch or a sam sung galaxy watch. This idea isn't that original now a days
“Keyboard comparison”?? I don’t understand why you didn’t put links to each model in the description. No real revue since no pros and cons of each. Anyone can see what they look like. 🤷🏼♀️👋. And WOW… even one that’s been discontinued? Why even mention it????
I bought the long refill by mistake for my Echo. I just used a pair of flushcuts to trim to length and dipped the cut end in some 5 min epoxy to seal. Worked great.
Overall it is a good device, the detachable mic in combination with the 12ft cord placed near or under the television is remarkable. My wife is no longer angry with me for keeping her awake all night watching television. I work a mid-shift job so stay up until 3 a.m. most nights. This feature alone makes it worth the price of admission for me
I just bought a Magic Chef microwave the panel is all in black they don't show the numbers in white you can't see them even with glasses on is anybody got any ideas about how to fix this I sure would appreciate it you can see the panel but the numbers are really really hard to to see I have to use a flashlight in order to see the panel why do they make them that way I called up the outfit there's no fix for it anybody got any ideas maybe I could paint the numbers on or or take packing tape and reverse it or something like that why did they do that
That's good one but I'm actually looking for a review video for the HaerEsy Talking Alarm clock, but I can't find one so I may have to make one for myself LOL
This is a reworked version of the Radio Shack 63-963, a clock I've had for maybe at least 20 years. The functions are pretty similar, but its shape and the location of its buttons is different. My clock doesn't eat batteries (it uses two AAs), though like the one in the video, it's always on. I have to change the batteries only every few years. One reason for the low battery usage is that it has a liquid crystal display (LCD) which draws very little power, and its backlight illuminates only when you press the time/snooze button.
greetings from Mckees Rocks, State of Pennsylvania - USA, nicely done, question, if you unplug from power, with the 9v battery in place will the clock still light up and if not will the alarm still work for the time that it is set to go on
Hey Shandra- Good video, So far your video about this monitor is the most coherent of any of the ones we've seen on it. We literally JUST received it & have not found ANY video yet, even from the company NEWSOUL that tells Step By Step How To instructions to Set it up and to operate it. The 'manual' in the box had such tiny font we could not read it. We bought it to use with our M1 2020 Macbook Pro 13" as we are creative writers/graphic artists and wanted to use it to increase our productivity. So far we can't get it to do anything else but MIRROR our Mac screen and we wanted to be able to get it to display a Different screen. All Mac settings tested, display, attachments, etc. working properly. Any helpful suggestions would be most appreciated! Thank you 🙂
This is a great big-picture review of splendid alternatives offered by Livescribe. You deliver a fire hose of information! (Makes me wish I had a livescribe pen ready to take notes and unravel it later.) One thing I will add about the first pen, is its audio can be bothersome because its mic picks up LOUD scratchy sounds from the notetaking itself. I was hoping to use it strictly for standalone notetaking and study playback, but owing to its distracting scratchy sounds, I ended up pairing the Pulse pen with that distracting smart phone - which defeated the purpose! So now it sits in the desk drawer :-( I think I will pull the Pulse pen back out and pair it with a three-year-old android that can’t surf from the classroom. Overall Livescribe is an amazing product family.
The Livescribe answer to the scratching was their 3D noise cancelling headphones. They suggest plugging them in and laying them out (which is sometimes awkward when trying to write notes with headphones hanging off the end of the pen), but....I have tested it and it really does reduce the scratching noises.
Bought one for my mom, all it did was pop and crack, with the mic plugged in. I'd say the thing is worth about $60 if it worked. Not the $235 we paid for it. I would not recommend it. Maybe for $60 only if it worked.
I have found you really have to adjust the dials to find a good sweet spot to hear well. Also I don't like hearing myself talk so loud but I can hear TV or exterior sounds well with it. Let us know if you want us to try to help you adjust it so that it works. It doesn't replace hearing aids but is a good supplment so I hate that it's sitting in a drawer!
