If in fact, there are fixes in the works, an update should have been forthcoming way before now. The bugs should have been fixed before an update only adding Braille support. Sorry, credit should be given, when credit is due.

Hi Angela.

To code factory's credit, their new version for android is currently in beta. I can't say too much as i'm on their beta testing team, but there are certainly some new features planned which are very useful, as well as bug fixes that we've been requesting for a while.

All the best,

Mo.

That’s all well and good, but what about further development on Mobile Accessibility for Android? You know, that $99.00 app which provides no stable support for Android versions higher than Gingerbread? And by the way, that is directed at Code Factory, in case anyone there actually cares about any level of customer satisfaction.

**New version of Nokia Screen Reader**


    *New version of Nokia Screen Reader is now available on the Nokia
    Store!*


      *Popular and free application now supports more than 40 devices
      and 29 languages!*

Terrassa (Barcelona), Spain, October 17th, 2012

The highly popular Nokia Screen Reader application, which was released late in 2011 for a limited range of devices and languages, has now been extended to include support for virtually all Nokia Symbian devices released in the last few years. In addition, it now supports a much wider range of languages. And the best part for users: it keeps being a free application!

“We’ve received fantastic feedback since the launch of Nokia Screen Reader 10 months ago,” explains Eduard Sánchez, CEO at Code Factory. “It’s been a great leap forward for affordable accessibility, and Nokia is to be credited for supporting the project. However, many users were disappointed that their phone or language was not supported. With the release of Nokia Screen Reader 1.3, we are delighted to be able to greatly extend the availability of Nokia Screen Reader both in terms of devices and supported languages, to once again break down the barriers of accessibility.”

Major features of v1.3:

• Support for a large number of new devices. The full set of supported devices is now: Nokia 500, 603, 700, 701, 808 PureView, 5320, 5530, 5630, 5730, 6120, 6121, 6210, 6220, 6700 Slide, 6710, 6720, 6790, C5-00, C5 5MP, C6-00, C6-01, C7, E5, E52, E55, E6-00, E63, E66, E7, E71, E71x, E72, E73, E75, N78, N79, N8, N85, N86, N96, N97, N97 Mini, X6 and X7.

• Support for a much wider range of languages: English, Spanish, French, German, Portuguese, Finnish, Swedish, Italian, Danish, Dutch, Greek, Hindi, Norwegian, Simplified Chinese, Turkish, Arabic, Croatian, Lithuanian, Bengali, Bulgarian, Catalan, Hungarian, Malaysian, Serbian, Slovak, Tagalog, Ukrainian, Vietnamese and Icelandic. Note that some of these languages do not have a corresponding Nokia HQ voice, so it is recommended to use the Nokia standard quality voice for these languages.

• Added the "Voice" option to the UI, which allows users to choose between the Nokia HQ and the Nokia (standard quality) voices. Nokia HQ will still be loaded by default when Nokia Screen Reader is first installed.

• Support for devices running Symbian Belle Refresh and Symbian Belle Feature Pack 2 (FP2) firmware.

• Support for latest version of WhatsApp v2.8.14, the world’s most popular mobile messaging application.
