iPhone/iPad: Siri for Appointments

Hello, my name is Douglas Walker. Today, we are going to be using Siri to set a calendar appointment. Now, Apple likes to call Siri our personal assistant. And with Siri, we're able to do things like set a timer or an alarm. We're able to check our weather, place a phone call, or even send a text message. And today, of course, is all about creating a calendar appointment.

Okay, creating an appointment with Siri is really easy. All we have to do is to say "Hey Siri." Now it's a good idea to have a title in mind when we create an appointment. So we will just say something like, "Create an appointment to record my video tomorrow." Yeah, Siri will then ask us for a date and time for our appointment. So we will simply give the date and time. And the appointment will be placed right into our calendar app.

Ed: Now that you've had a chance to learn a bit with us, we'd like to learn more about you. Your name, email address, how you heard about Hadley, and your relationship to vision loss. Learning more will give us a better understanding of how to personalize Hadley just for you, and don't worry. Everything you share with us online will be kept safe and secure. Of course, if you'd prefer to talk through these questions we're just a phone call away at 800-323-4238.

Taking these few steps saves your preferences so you can continue right where you left off and track your progress every time you log on. Plus, it connects you to the Hadley community and helps sustain our funding to keep Hadley free of charge. And last, but not least, it gives you direct access to experts, like me. Now, where were we?
