iOS Game. If you like Braille and a challenge then you will like the game Brailliance! Its like a Braille Wordle. Each word is made up of so many total dots and so many letters; like 5 letters with 13 dots. So for this word, the dots from each letter will add up to be a total of 13 dots. And of coarse its totally accessible with Voiceover. So give it a try. Here is the link to it in the app store... apps.apple.com/us/app/braillia… #ios #game #Braille #Blind #Accessible #Brailliance
Brailliance is a puzzle game where you guess the word by adding up braille dots.
This game has been carefully crafted to be playable by everyone, and it includes multiple accessibility features for people with blindness and other disabilities.
Braille Screen Input Reminder. If using BSI from your home screen to find and start an app, don't forget you can now use contractions when typing the name of the app. #ios #BSI #homescreen #blind #voiceover
Navigating iOS WhatsApp message threads is becoming very difficult with VoiceOver. Management of focus position, especially after performing an action is atrocious, it jumps largely back up the thread losing your position, this happens a lot especially on a busy thread. How can we get Meta to take heed of these issues #WhatsApp #VoiceOver #Accessibility #A11Y #iOS
The app for the TP-Link Deco mesh system is nice and #screenreader#accessible if you're in the market for a router. More than can be said for Linksys Velop. Amplifi was okay, but the TP-Link app is actually better, at least on #IOS with #voiceover. I haven't had the system for long enough to give a review, other than that setup was quick and all the apps joined without issue. Also the default DHCP settings are weird. Who wants to start at 192.168.68.1? Changing it isn't obvious. First you have to change the lan address. Then it will change the gateway for you as part of that. Only then can you change the DHCP allocation. And even then it wants to start allocating at 192.168.0.1. That's too weird for me when the router lives at 192.168.1.1. And even after fiddling, it's still randomly assigning devices in 192.168.2. and 192.168.3.. But at least it let me reserve the devices that I need to be static. I probably have to go somewhere and do something incomprehensible with netmasks, but whatever. It's fine. #a11y
So now that I have a working #matrix#homeserver, what #screenreader#accessible clients for matrix do folks like? #elementX is...fine on #IOS with #voiceover. But it's kind of annoying with #NVDA. Is there a better desktop client? Thunderbird, I guess?
First, they shut down the Basic HTML site, forcing many of us to switch to clients such as Thunderbird. Now, they're using qr codes which are not only inaccessible to the blind but also to those who don't use smartphones! This is ridiculous! Yes, they do still have the option to click whether it's you trying to sign in or not (which still requires a smartphone and a carrier, which they claim to be concerned about), but how long before they remove that, too?
and now that you talk about young people, in several places people are not even allowed to get a SIM card at all until certain age, so apps like Signal that depend on phone numbers are a non-go, while I have seen several people using DeltaChat with their children, ex:
Onboarded my 12yo niece to @delta@chaos.social yesterday. They were looking for a solution to chat with her peer group split between iOS and Android, many of whom don't have sim cards in their devices (+ parents rightly resistant to use big social ap…
#mozilla #thunderbird is highly MISSING on #ios devices! There seem to be no open-source email apps for #apple # iPhone and # iPad. Everything is proprietary. This makes moving away from Big Tech USA a bit harder ...
V drevnich dobach iOS vyvoje s UIKitem zabiralo 90% casu debugovani ruznych vizualnich glitchu. Clovek si hledal hodiny a hodiny na SO, aby pak nekde napsal
dispatch_async(dispatch_get_main_queue(), ...)
a vse fungovalo.
Dnes je to jednodussi. Vidite UI glitch. Zaplatite $200. Deep research 5 minut crawluje StackOverflow, fora, Swift blogy aby pak vyplivnul... a vse funguje 🤷
Has anyone thought about making a #virtual #Braille #display for #Windows that would hijack the touch screen for use with #NVDASR or #JAWS as a Braille input device, and allow using things like a mode for navigation with dot taps like command mode with #BrailleScreenInput on #iOS with #VoiceOver? I'd pay for this. #Accessibility.
I highly encourage you to try it. It's my new favorite #Notetaking app. It supports importing txt files, Evernote data & even OneNote data. It works on #iOS, #iPadOS, #MacOS, #Android, #Windows & #Linux. Thus, I'm curious to know if it would run on the #BTSpeak?
So, for some reason, I forgot that Apple discontinuedthe Music Memos app back in 2021. I really wanted to record an idea earlier today and realized that the app was no longer on my phone. While I could still download and use it, I want to find out if there is a 3rd-party equivalent? Anyone knows? Thx! #Music #appe #ios ,

Have you seen Callsheet? It’s an iOS app for movie and tv information. It’s a better version of IMDB. I finally took the time to review it. It’s awesome! Why did I wait so long? Nicely done @caseyliss !!
JIT isn't just for games! I just ran Arch Linux, with sound, on my iPhone! I used VoiceOver screen recognition to read the screen, then used espeak once I got that installed. I couldn't figure out how to enable Speakup, so I'll leave that for future me to tinker with. I'd be curious to know if any other blind people have used UTM, on the Mac maybe, and have some Windows VM's or a Windows install ISO that talks. I can probably only handle up to Windows 7 or so on this iPhone. But it would be cool to see if it's possible!
We've got some exciting job openings at #Thunderbird! We're hiring for a Sr. UX Design Specialist, A #Rust /C++ Software Engineer for the desktop app, and......a Senior #iOS Engineer to join our mobile team to help us bring Thunderbird to your iPhone and iPad!
Wow, I might have to switch back to Android just to get away from the SMS spam! Lol, now they're doing the "hey it's been a long time since we've talk! How have you been?" kind of thing, and then they go "oh, are you my friend Henry?" So then after you say no, they'll go "Well that's okay, can we still talk?" And eventually they get to the whole "did you hear about the new program, for the elderly, poor, disabled, veterans, elderly, other people, elderly, oh please be elderly..." lol. But you can just about always tell because it's a number you've never interacted with, and it's an SMS. Not an iMessage, not an RCS message. Now, I know some Android users are gonna be using messaging apps that don't use RCS. But honestly the likelihood of that versus scam is kinda lopsided towards being a scam.
Poor Robokiller, they've not cracked down on this new tactic yet. And one almost got me too. My Pixel contacts were quite out of date, since I'd not added my new iPhone contacts yet. So I wasn't even sure if it was someone I really hadn't talked to in a long time, or what.
For anyone following this, it looks like my answer is #readeck. The interface is #accessible, it does full text search, it archives pages, it has a browser extension, it works with #miniflux, it does the same kind of read/unread tracking that I wanted from #goodlinks, and it plays well with the rest of my things. Thanks so much to @readeck for making sure to build an interface that is fully #screenreader accessible. The only thing I'm lacking is an #IOS app. And the ability to share some labels publicly would also be neat. But otherwise, Readeck is perfect for my use-case. If you're a #blind person who wants a demo account to test it out and see if it works for you without going through all the bother of installation and set-up, send me a direct message. #a11y

#webxdc apps are back to #iOS homescreen: as the old pwa-hack stopped working, we this time get all-in and created a nice widget - 💄 - where you cannot only place apps, but also any chat! and when going multi-profile, even from any profile #deltachat
Po dlouhe dobe jsem otevrel XCode, stahnul SDKcka pro iOS a bohuzel zjistil, ze se ve vyvoji pro iPhony moc nezmenilo. I ve svete Swiftu a SwiftUI resim stejne bizarni problemy jako za dob drevniho mobilniho vyvoje. Ten ekosystem se z pohledu DX vubec nikam neposunul.
Ale ja se nedam! Unreleased v nativni podobe uz brzy na vasich iPhonech!
👉🏼 I have been doing some testing and have noticed when navigating links on iOS using VoiceOver (VO), if the link contains an element that is not exposed as a generic element it causes VO to treat and announce text in the link as separate links.
Seit 2016 habe ich an mehr als zwanzig nativen iOS-Apps mitgewirkt. Zum einen war ich an der Entwicklung innovativer Enterprise-Lösungen für Konzerne beteiligt, die Geschäftsprozesse optimieren.

Pipilo is a unique Fediverse app that lets you browse posts on a horizontally scrolling timeline. Each post is displayed within the context of its conversation with replies from people you follow.
Right, I'm going to do something I dislike, but I literally don't know how else to get support to follow up with me. I have indeed submitted two support requests in the intervening time, i'm not just being lazy I promise. On 17 Aug I made a video about #FloatPlane accessibility and how not good it is. I wasn't a troll, I was constructive and thoughtful, and yet I cannot get a hold of anyone at either Floatplane Media or LTT. If *anyone* happens to know someone at one of these companies and could get my video to them, I'd be extremely grateful. The other thing I really dislike doing is asking if people could boost for reach, but I'll make an exception. Fedi is big now, and far more reaching than modern-day xitter, so all help gratefully received. I thank you in advance.
I've never made a video I wanted to age as badly as this one, but needs must.There are some glaringly obvious issues with LTT's Floatplane app for iOS if you...
