Double Tap

VoiceOver Passcodes, Buggy Braille Tech, and Smart Home Safety


Listen Later

Struggling with VoiceOver passcodes, buggy Victor Reader Stream 3, or wondering if Braille displays and AI doorbells are worth the hype? Steven Scott and Shaun Preece dive into tech frustrations, safety tips, and some hilariously relatable blind life stories.

In this lively episode of Double Tap, Steven and Shaun start their Monday debating protein shakes, exercise, and why fitness might be overrated. The conversation jumps into home tech safety, including smart power strips, USB chargers, and a fire officer’s tips for avoiding house fires caused by cheap plugs and overnight phone charging.

Listeners share their experiences with:

  • Victor Reader Stream 3 bugs and whether specialist tech gets too much leeway.
  • iPhone passcode frustrations for VoiceOver users, plus tips for Face ID, Touch ID, and Split Tap entry.
  • Braille displays like the Orbit Reader, their durability, and repair realities.
  • Shaving while blind, pocket obsession, and creative ways to carry everything without a bag.
