Fahrenheit - was Current Temperature Pushed

2012-07-16 Thread Geoff Waaler
Hi Karin and others,

I'm a sucker for a weather app, so I gave Fahrenheit a whirl.  Are you saying 
that information such as wind speed/direction, humidity, real feel temp, etc 
are accessible with voiceOver?  If not, I would suggest that a claim of 
completely accessible is misleading, at least to the faction of VoiceOver 
users who lack any functional vision.  I've been all through the settings, and 
unless I'm missing something, from my perspective, Fahrenheit provides 
absolutely zero  added value over the Weather widget included with IOS.

  Best regards.
  Geoff

  I downloaded an app called Fahrenheit on Tues. It does the same things as 
current temp. The format is a little different but it is completely accessible. 
I cost $0.99.

   Hi Everyone,
   
   Current Temperature Pushed has been one of our favorite weather apps around 
here, but for at least the last week or so, it hasn't been working.  I don't 
know if this is a local problem, or if the app just no longer works!  Do any of 
you use this app, and have you heard anything about what's wrong with it?  And, 
if we can't get this one working again, is there another simple weather app 
that will display the same type of information and is very accessible?  We like 
it because it shows not only the temperature, but also the dew point 
temperature.  Thanks!

Hello Jeff,
Yes, that info is there and 
vO reads it. You double tap on the day you want to see, and the info is there. 
The app was recommended by Applevis. Let me know if I can help further.
