Re: Nook accessibility is coming for the mac
I've got the app in the UK, although when I searched on my iPad, Nook came up fourth in the list.

Nook accessibility is coming for the mac
I just had a nice exchange with the lead for the Barnes and Noble accessibility team. I suppose most people on this list know that the Nook app for ios is now wonderfully accessible with v/o. In response to a question, he stated that they have plans to make Nook accessible on both Mac and pc, and they plan to do it by using industry standard frameworks, so the customer and use the application as she/he chooses. Are you listening Amazon? No, probably not. Mary Mary Otten motte...@gmail.com -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups MacVisionaries group.

Re: Nook accessibility is coming for the mac
Thanks, Mary! I knew they were going to do it. They did so much work on the IOS app that I figured it was likely they'd work on the PC and Mac ones as well.

Re: Nook accessibility is coming for the mac
I didn't ask about the stand alone Nook and whether it will be made accessible. Seems that could happen if they used standard Android and took advantage of what Google builds in for accessibility. But I didn't ask if they plan to do that. And by standard framework, I thin they meant that they'll use what's built in to provide accessibility, rather than making you use a clunky nonintuitive, half-baked piece of junk aka kindle for pc with accessibility plug in, which can't be used with a screen reader and is thus missing all the built in functionality for reading, searching etc. Mary Otten motte...@gmail.com -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups MacVisionaries group.

Hi Mary, Given your informative and direct connection, do you mind asking? Some if not many would appreciate a stand alone reader I am sure.
