Re: Commentary Screenreader - give it another chance The tricky thing I'm finding is my angle gestures that I'm very much used to with talkback to open the app switcher, or actions. I'd rather not pay for something unless I can at least make sure that the gestures that I'd like to use to access the functions I'd use most frequently are there. I have the free copy, but I also don't see a way to check for updates with it. I'm sure my copy is probably old.

Re: Commentary Screenreader - give it another chance
Re: Commentary Screenreader - give it another chance Ok. I got the screen reader but it doesn't like to use espeak in the language i'm using. It's something other than english. Otherwise it looks even faster than talk back. By the way how do you open the apps screen with this? I used to swipe up with two fingers to open the apps screen when I was using talk back URL: https://forum.audiogames.net/post/442088/#p442088 -- Audiogames-reflector mailing list Audiogames-reflector@sabahattin-gucukoglu.com https://sabahattin-gucukoglu.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/audiogames-reflector

So maybe, something will happen of this.devinprater wrote:Also, no, it looks like you'll have to have a braille screen input app, like soft braille keyboard or that $12 one. No built-in braille for us.These are all great suggestions for plugins, so that everyone can make their own choice whether they want to use Commentary with its default gestures, etc.I remember @nuno69 saying in the group, that the plugin language is lua, and am maybe everyone can code plugins?Again, @nuno69 can correct all this, but anyway, for those who want to try it, feel free. No one is forcing anyone to use it, however. Smiles, that is the beauty of Android in general. We could have a billion different choices for everything.

Re: Commentary Screenreader - give it another chance that's great, the main feature that prevents me from switching to Android is the Braille screen input.

Commentary Screenreader - give it another chance
Commentary Screenreader - give it another chance Hello!I am writing this topic to inform unaware people that:1. Commentary Screenreader is 95% english now.2. I am working on a manual and on a website for it3. Native braille keyboard support has been added, it means you do not have to suspend the screenreader while braille typing, just like on iPhone!4. We have a very active and friendly community of users already, the most active group is on telegram, however the forum is in the worksIf you wanna try the screenreader, join the telegram news channel(t.me/jieshuo)and or the community group(t.me/jieshuochat)Here is the partial manual written by me:Commentary Screenreader: user guideWritten by Nuno (nuno69a 'at' poczta 'dot' fm)1. Introduction1.1. What is Commentary Screenreader?Commentary Screenreader is a screenreader for the Google Android operating system. The thing that makes it better than every other screen reading software available on the market is how much innovative features this program has.They include: build in translation service, build in Voice Assistant, OCR, object recognition and many, many more!1.2. System requirementsThe program has the following system requirements:Device: the target device should be an ARM X86 or ARM X64 compatible device. It is unconfirmed if the program will work on any other CPU architecture (Android X86 or other)Memory: Commentary Screenreader requires atleast 50 MB ROM memory and 1 GB RAM memory to run fluently. It might be possible to run the program on lower-end hardware, however the reliability and usability of the software is not confirmed.Operating System: The program requires minimum Android 4.4.2 to run, however some features are available from Android 8 upwards only.1.3. PermissionsThe program requires some special permissions in order to make it fully usable. These include:Microphone: used for consuming the build in voice assistant.Managing phone calls: used for proper altering of the speech settings in different states of the device.Memory permissions: used for reading installed plugins, extensions, sound themes and other third-party components.Location: used for consuming the build in GPS service.Camera: used for some OCR capabilities like object recognition, scene recognition ETC.Other permissions are required for proper functioning of the program and denying them is strictly discouraged.1.4. Getting helpThere is a number of ways you can contact the support team. Probably the most reliable one is Telegram. In order to join the Commentary Screenreader official group, please navigate to the following URL:https://t.me/jieshuochatOther ways include E-Mail (written at the beginning of the document), and our forum athttps://jieshuo-screenreader.com/forum2. InstallationThe installation process for the software is straightforward. Make sure you meet all the requirements shown above and then proceed to the following page:https://jieshuo-screenreader.com/downloadDepending on the device you are downloading the file on, you might place the download on your target device.After you're done downloading the file, navigate to the path where the file exists and execute it.Warning! On most Android devices you will be prompted for disabling the security feature which prevents external applications from being installed. It is strictly recommended to re-enable it just after the installation process finishes.In order to enable the screenreader you have to navigate to your accessibility settings and enable the Commentary Screenreader service.Warning! Remember to suspend your previous screenreader before enabling Commentary, as gesture conflicts may occur.3. GesturesCommentary Screenreader has a very flexible and extensible gestures system. These are divided into the following types:Basic gestures: gestures used for the basic operations. They are mostly performed with one or two fingers. If the gesture requires drawing of an angle, the first half should be performed across the whole screen and the other half might be shorter.Fingerprind reader gestures: gestures performed on the fingerprind reader. This feature is available from Android 8 and above, and not all devices support it. It is known that the feature is supported on All Huavei Devices and on some Xiaomi devices. However the exact model numbers are not known.Multipart gestures: gestures which are made of two or more basic gestures. There is no default setup for any multipart gestures. They must be setup on your own.Edge gestures: gestures performed at the very edge of the screen. Because of how hard they are, there is no default setup for them. They must be set up on your own.The program might also be used with keyboard, volume buttons and headset buttons, if applicable.3.1. Basic gestures listingThe following listing shows default mapping for all the gestures which are supported by default.3.1.1.
