Excellent minutes Jackie. Happy New Year and best of 2024 to everybody.
I think the following article tells all about iPhone security and how
that triggers the alert you've received on the Amazon app:
https://support.apple.com/en-ph/guide/iphone/iphd5d8daf4f/ios
"Turn detection of compromised passwords on or off
iPhone can monitor your passwords and alert you if they appear in known
data leaks.
Go to Settings > Passwords > Security Recommendations, then turn Detect
Compromised Passwords on or off."

Welcome back to the Cork TechClub. Come inside for the trials, Technology and tribulations of all members. This morning we had 11 Happy members eager to start a new year.=========================================================== The fb-exchange mailing list Manage account, List Page: https://www.freelists.org/list/fb-exchange
We had apologies.
Firstly, Lady W wants to wish everyone a very Happy and Peaceful 2024.
We started this morning with a short discussion on how our Christmas went. There was no need for the Gardaí or getting fitted for prison uniforms among this mornings members so that counts as a good Christmas.
The conversation started today about the accessibility of banking apps. A few of us spoke of our various negative experiences of using banking apps on IOS and Android. The banks did not come out well as everyone shared their experiences using the apps.
Ger helped Helen with the select to speak using android. Select to speak is a tool on Android that reads out highlighted text, this works even if talk back is not enabled. To enable this feature go to Settings, accessibility and select to speak.
Jackie told us all about a weirdness with her Amazon app. When she went into it last night it had signed her out. When she went to sign in a warning came up that said "This password is being used for other websites please change your password" Jackie could not cancel this and had to proceed and change her password. There was an OTP (one time password) sent to her email address. Jackie changed her password and them panicked and changed it twice more. When changing passwords on amazon one has to sign back into : audible, kindle, alexa and amazon music. Adrian believed it was more Jackie's phone security than Amazon that triggered this alert.
Ger had an issue with Whatsapp and that on his Android it defaults to calling them on Whatsapp. At this point the postman came so one had to mute and deal with him. The whatsapp issue continued for a while with Paul also sharing he has some issues with calling people, he also has issues when siri sends a message it will now only read only one or two words. the members felt this was an issue after an update and go into siri settings and check his settings, as its now possible just to automatically send messages without reviewing them.
Jackie came back so her alter ego could continue the notes.
Jackie bought curling Iron Tong gloves on amazon. Joanne told Jackie about these and they were also recommended by another person on a blindy group. These gloves are just like normal gloves and the same thickness. Jackie is hoping these will be handier to use removing her silicone trays from her air frier. Joanne said people use them when ironing as well. Jackie will report back on how good they are, she is hoping they work as regular oven gloves makes it difficult to grip the trays in an air frier. This is the link of the gloves. when buying them its best to buy two as you only get one glove. The glove can work in either the left or right hand.
this is the ones she bought.

Ken congratulated Cearbhall for joining Revolut. Cearbhall got some help to sign up as the only tricky part is the picture taking. Currently at the moment Cearbhall doesn't have the card and is using it on his phone. Adrian told him how to add a virtual card onto his wallet. Those of us that have revolut loves it, the app is workable but can be a wee bit difficult at times with voiceover.
Lady W dropped out at this point as she got a phone call.
The conversation continued with everyone praising Jackie and agreeing to pay money in a monthly bases into her revolute account. This is getting done to aid the members to practise doing this task on the IOS and Android Revolute apps.
All have a great Saturday
Lady W.
