Dolphin Guide to GuideConnect Upgrade
|
Product Description
Current Dolphin Guide users can update their license to the new GuideConnect, an even simpler and more intuitive version for those with low vision.
GuideConnect is Guide’s new big brother; it does many of the things Guide used to do, but it’s even simpler and more intuitive to use. Compatible with the full range of devices, use GuideConnect on a tablet or a TV box, portable laptop or everyday desktop. GuideConnect fits into your lifestyle and how you use GuideConnect is flexible too. Choose the remote control for leisurely access from the comfort of your sofa. The effortless touchscreen access is perfect for tablet users or laptops with touchscreens. And if you’re used to a keyboard and mouse they’re good for your computer.
GuideConnect is packed with artificial intelligence, but unlike using an iPad with your sight loss, GuideConnect is always easy to see and easy to learn. There are no complex gestures to remember and everything is in large print text with high contrast colors.
New features in GuideConnect you've been asking for:
Speech input: dictate your documents, emails or search the web - all with your voice
Radio Favorites: you don’t have to trawl through a long list every time to find your favorite station
See ‘today’s events’ or ‘upcoming events’ in your calendar
Add recurring events for birthdays and more
Print address labels, as well as envelopes
GuideConnect regularly checks for new email, every 30 minutes or more frequently if desired
New folders called ‘My Scanned Documents’ and ‘My Pictures’ make it far simpler to find the documents and pictures that you've scanned and saved
The text in the GuideConnect book reader scrolls beautifully and zooms smoothly every time
