Find it either on ht iOS App Store or Google Play Store.
Shokz Comparison Page between the current Shokz head phones
Whilst not a fantastic comparison page as these things go, it does give you enough info to consider each head set. Vision Store soon will be selling the Shokz Move, Run, Run Mini, OPencomm, and Opencomm UC headsets.

Yale Access Assure SL Smart Dead Lock
First of my recent two purchases.
This is a smart Dead Lock which has a touch keypad on the outside of the door, and the actual dead lock itself inside the door which contains all the smart stuff, a manual lock knob, and a privacy physical button.
The Touch keypad is only useful for people with useful vision. However, you can put your whole hand over the keypad to manually lock the dead lock when you leave home.
Via the Yale Access app for iOS which is the one I’m using, you can set a 8 digit master code, a code for another Owner of the house, and permanent or temporary guest PIN numbers. .
With the app, you can also lock and lock the door plus it enables you to fully setup for Home Kit access so that via Siri on your Apple Watch or iPhone, you can say Hey Siri “unlock” or “Lock” front door.
You can also access the app via Home Kit on the iPad and Mac, but the only way you can use Siri is on your personal wearable device: i.e. iPhone or Apple Watch.
So when I want to lock or unlock the front door, I can say to my iPhone or Apple Watch, unlock or lock door via Siri.
If you want to use the lock with Google or Amazon, you will have to get a network hub for the lock to allow wifi connectivity to the lock itself.

JBL Party Box 310 Bluetooth Outdoor Speaker
The 2nd of my purchases.
I’ve always wanted an outdoor Bluetooth speaker, hence this one in all its glory.
Connect two smart phones/tablets to stream music, have your own light show keeping beat to the music, plug in a microphone and sing along, play very very loud music, and much much more.
On the way, and I’ll let you know all about it when it gets here, dispatched today as we go to air.
