Reminder that the original Metatext third party app is no longer being maintained, as its lead developer had to step back due to health issues.
However, there is a new version of Metatext run by different people called Feditext which is currently in public beta testing. You can follow the official Feditext account at:
➡️ @Feditext
If you would like to join the public beta testing, it's on Apple TestFlight. There are more instructions here:
The attached picture can be improved, a bit outdated.
For chat, Matrix and XMPP clients (e.g Element and Monal) can be used.
Libre Translate can replace Google Translate.
2FAS Auth is a nice project for OTP codes.
Strongbox is nice to store passwords.
PeerTube is a real YouTube alternative instead of YouTube facades.
And Yandex is an efficient search engine.

Apple Bonjour is a feature that enables seamless connection between your Apple devices
You can safely tap "Don't Allow" without any impact, however, that may limit Handoff support and other Apple features we're planning to implement.
Regardless, you can audit our app code yourself to verify we aren't doing anything sketchy

Sonos is considered a recommended speaker brand in the blind community.
Both because many blind people are audiophiles, and because their app is screen reader accessible.
However, Sonos is about to release a new version of their app and at the moment it looks like it will be practically unusable for the blind.
Screen reader users that will not prevent their devices from updating will lose access to the expensive hardware they have purchased.

Now, this feature has been upgraded with screen reader support, so you can point your phone’s camera at your surroundings and have TalkBack read the place’s information out loud.(3/7)
Good thing the #Apple App Store is secure, it would be a shame if the #DigitalMarketsAct allowed alternative platforms to set up shop and start pushing fake software to #iOS devices...
