RE: What is the best app for doing Facebook?

[Sieghard Weitzel]

Facebook is the only app except for some specialized apps which are also made 
by Facebook such as Facebook Pages Manager, Adwords manager and so on. When you 
search for "Facebook" on the app store you get all of these apps made by 
Facebook and also the Instagram app shows up as does Whats App Messenger, but 
those are owned by Facebook. Facebook is not like Twitter where you have 
third-party apps like Twitterific, Tweetlist and so on in addition to the 
Twitter app from Twitter.

[Sieghard Weitzel]

Hi Jim,

Well, when I open Messenger I am also on the Home tab and I’m not sure why you 
don’t have Settings there.
I also have “New Message” which is at the top right, if I flick left from that 
I am on “Search” and if I flick left one more time I’m on “Settings”. For me 
it’s right underneath where the cellular signal strength and the carrier are 
displayed in the status bar at the very top.

Hi Jim,

The Settings button is there when I first open Messenger and I’m in the Inbox 
so to speak where all my messages are displayed. Once I double tap on a message 
to open that thread the top left says “Home back button”.
Below is a fairly detailed description of what is in Settings for those who 
have never explored it and who benefit from reading a description/tutorial:

If I double tap on the Settings button I now have a Done button at the top 
left, then in the middle and over to the right it says “Me” which is a heading.
Underneath that is an unlabelled button. If I double tap it I get to a screen 
where I have the following:

Cancel button at the top left
To the right of that and in the middle but also at the top at the same level as 
the cancel button are two buttons labelled “My code button, 1 of 2” and “Scan 
Code button, 2 of 2”. To the right of that is a “Share” button and most of the 
screen is taken up by another item Voiceover just announces as “button” and 
which seems to be a barcode somebody else can scan with their phone, I assume 
it will quickly and easily add your information to their Messenger list, sort 
of like a QR code.
If you double tap on that unlabelled button a menu pops up with the following:
Reset Code
Share Image
Save Image
Cancel
I selected Save Image which put it in my camera roll, here it was announced as 
“One Face”. I then used iDentifi to recognize it and it came back and announced 
it as “Messenger Avatar”.
When I changed it from “My Code” to “Scan Code” I got a message on the screen 
to hold the camera up to a code, there was also an unlabelled button which when 
I tapped it brought up my camera roll. I selected the image I had previously 
saved and it told me this:
Sieghard Weitzel
Sieghard Weitzel from your phone contacts is also on Messenger
Sieghard is in your Messenger contacts
Then it had a “Type a message” text field and I guess I could have sent a 
message to myself, but of course this is meant to scan somebody else’s code to 
add them to your Messenger contacts.
A couple of unlabelled buttons here, but nothing that’s a deal-breaker.
Back on the main ‘Settings screen underneath that initial unlabelled button 
which takes you to all of this are the following other items which are all 
labelled properly:
Sieghard Weitzel – this is just underneath the unlabelled button (you get to it 
if you swipe right and that is what I am doing to get to all of these options 
now)
User name button: double tap on this and it will tell you the user name you 
have on Facebook, in my case it is SieghardW. I can now tap on “Edit User 
Name”, then I can find an explanatory message: Your user name becomes part of  
your custom links that let people visit your Facebook profile and reach you on 
Messenger. Need help, get tips on choosing a user name.”
When I tried to edit it to just say “Sieghard” without the first initial of my 
last name it told me that this was an unavailable user name. Basically this has 
to be a unique identifier where you could type in 
www.Facebook.com/SieghardW ad it would take 
you straight to my page. I guess even my relatively unusual name is not so 
unusual on Facebook and somebody else already had just the first name.
Next on the Settings  screen is “Phone” followed by your number. If you double 
tap on this it asks “Is this the number people can  use to reach you? People 
can add you as a contact if they already have your phone number, but only you 
can see this number on Facebook. Your phone number helps you connect with 
friends, get SMS updates and more”.
You then have an edit field with your number or you can add/change it and at 
the bottom is an “OK” and “Not Now” button.
Next on the main settings screen is a “Notification” button which for me is 
“On” and when I double tap on it I get various options to adjust notifications.
Next is a “People” button

Re: do not update messenger above V100!!!

[Eric Oyen]

well,
so far as I can tell, it seems that all controls, buttons and edit boxes are 
where they are supposed to be. there is only 1 unlabeled element: tab 3 at the 
bottom.

What this may sound like is an issue inside the iOS for your particular 
devices. btw, I ran into similar issues a few months back and backed up my 
phone to a laptop. then I erased and reinstalled from backup. that set of 
issues prompt made an exit.

sometimes, it just works better to clean out the device completely and restore 
from backup. this allows the iOS a chance to be installed cleanly.

Hi Sieghard, thank you for the reply.  Yes, I did have my finger on the 
lense cover, that is how I found out that it announced.  That didn’t happen 
before but, I like it.  Now, as far as the Profile with the automatic picture 
taking, I tried that but, I couldn’t seem to get the camera to auto take a 
picture.  Is there something I could be doing incorrectly?   I noticed that 
batch mode is off.  Would that be part of the problem?  Thanks so much for your 
wisdom and your valuable time.  Andy and Shubert

I use KNFB Reader with the profile that automatically takes a picture when it 
sees text. I always put my iPhone down on the page I want to scan and start 
KNFB Reader, then it will say “Lens covered” because it is covered. Maybe yours 
was too, maybe you had your finger over it accidently?

RE: do not update messenger above V100!!!

[Sieghard Weitzel]

Hi Jim,

The Settings button is there when I first open Messenger and I’m in the Inbox 
so to speak where all my messages are displayed. Once I double tap on a message 
to open that thread the top left says “Home back button”.
Below is a fairly detailed description of what is in Settings for those who 
have never explored it and who benefit from reading a description/tutorial:

If I double tap on the Settings button I now have a Done button at the top 
left, then in the middle and over to the right it says “Me” which is a heading.
Underneath that is an unlabelled button. If I double tap it I get to a screen 
where I have the following:

Cancel button at the top left
To the right of that and in the middle but also at the top at the same level as 
the cancel button are two buttons labelled “My code button, 1 of 2” and “Scan 
Code button, 2 of 2”. To the right of that is a “Share” button and most of the 
screen is taken up by another item Voiceover just announces as “button” and 
which seems to be a barcode somebody else can scan with their phone, I assume 
it will quickly and easily add your information to their Messenger list, sort 
of like a QR code.
If you double tap on that unlabelled button a menu pops up with the following:
Reset Code
Share Image
Save Image
Cancel
I selected Save Image which put it in my camera roll, here it was announced as 
“One Face”. I then used iDentifi to recognize it and it came back and announced 
it as “Messenger Avatar”.
When I changed it from “My Code” to “Scan Code” I got a message on the screen 
to hold the camera up to a code, there was also an unlabelled button which when 
I tapped it brought up my camera roll. I selected the image I had previously 
saved and it told me this:
Sieghard Weitzel
Sieghard Weitzel from your phone contacts is also on Messenger
Sieghard is in your Messenger contacts
Then it had a “Type a message” text field and I guess I could have sent a 
message to myself, but of course this is meant to scan somebody else’s code to 
add them to your Messenger contacts.
A couple of unlabelled buttons here, but nothing that’s a deal-breaker.
Back on the main ‘Settings screen underneath that initial unlabelled button 
which takes you to all of this are the following other items which are all 
labelled properly:
Sieghard Weitzel – this is just underneath the unlabelled button (you get to it 
if you swipe right and that is what I am doing to get to all of these options 
now)
User name button: double tap on this and it will tell you the user name you 
have on Facebook, in my case it is SieghardW. I can now tap on “Edit User 
Name”, then I can find an explanatory message: Your user name becomes part of  
your custom links that let people visit your Facebook profile and reach you on 
Messenger. Need help, get tips on choosing a user name.”
When I tried to edit it to just say “Sieghard” without the first initial of my 
last name it told me that this was an unavailable user name. Basically this has 
to be a unique identifier where you could type in 
www.Facebook.com/SieghardW ad it would take 
you straight to my page. I guess even my relatively unusual name is not so 
unusual on Facebook and somebody else already had just the first name.
Next on the Settings  screen is “Phone” followed by your number. If you double 
tap on this it asks “Is this the number people can  use to reach you? People 
can add you as a contact if they already have your phone number, but only you 
can see this number on Facebook. Your phone number helps you connect with 
friends, get SMS updates and more”.
You then have an edit field with your number or you can add/change it and at 
the bottom is an “OK” and “Not Now” button.
Next on the main settings screen is a “Notification” button which for me is 
“On” and when I double tap on it I get various options to adjust notifications.
Next is a “People” button which has an option to turn on or off “Sync 
Contacts”, you also have an invite and a block button.
Next is a button called “Photos, videos and emoji”. It gives you various 
options related to photos and videos and it has a button to turn on “Messenger 
Emoji” which has the explanation underneath: Switch system emoji with messenger 
emoji. I guess if you turn this off you can just use the regular iOS emojis 
instead of the emojis Facebook offers.
The last options on the main settings screen are Apple Watch, Secret 
Conversations, Switch Account, Report a Problem, Help and Privacy and Terms.
The Apple Watch button gives you I think 6 preset reply options which you can 
customize and change here and I don’t know what Secret Conversations are, 
haven’t seen anything where I can indicate I want a conversation to be secret.

Sieghard

RE: Using Front-Facing Camerca with Be My Eyes

[Sieghard Weitzel]

I don't know I understand your point, why is it awkward to use the backfacing 
camera? Normally you want to show the person something and using the backfacing 
camera makes more sense because as you hold the phone with the screen towards 
you where you can still do things on the touch screen the camera is now facing 
away from you and you can point it at whatever you want the person to see. It's 
pointing in the direction you would look at, if you asked somebody who was 
physically with you to look at something often they will stand behind you or 
next to you so they can look where you are looking/pointing.
I guess the only exception would be if you want the Be My Eyes person to look 
at you, maybe a shirt or sweater you are wearing, that is the only time where I 
could see it being of benefit to switch to the frontfacing camera.
Anyhow, I haven't used Be My Eyes in a while, but I don't recall that there was 
a flip camera button like you have when you do a Facetime Video call. Facetime 
uses the front camera because the main purpose is that you want to have a video 
chat where the other party can see you, but you can flip the camera to the 
backfacing camera for Facetime. I guess you could contact Be My Eyes and 
suggest that they look at providing the option to use either camera in a future 
update.

Sieghard

RE: do not update messenger above V100!!!

Subject: RE: do not update messenger above V100!!!

 

Hi Davy,

 

I updated to whatever the latest update was yesterday and have no issues. Can 
you be more specific wit some examples where you have problems or where things 
are not labelled?

I noticed that the third of out the 5 tabs at the bottom is not labelled, for 
me it says from left to right:

Home, Calls, Tab 3 of 5, Groups, People

When I double tap on where Voiceover says “Tab 3 of 5” Voiceover says “Tap to 
take photo or video” and I get a screen with a Close button at the top left, 
then a button to turn the flash on, a button to “Flip Camera” which is followed 
by Voiceover saying “Backfacing Camera” and then I have buttons labelled 
“Stickers”, “Draw”, “Text” and a “Previous” and “Next” button.

If I go to the “Home” tab I see all my conversations, I have a “Settings” 
button at the top left, a search field in the middle and a “New Conversation” 
button at the top right.

My conversations are announced as to whether they are “Unread” if they are new 
and Voiceover says “Actions available” which tells me there are rotor options 
which are Activate (default), Mute, Delete and More.

More gives me a pop-up menu with Block, Mark as Spam, Archive, Mark as Unread 
(or mark as read if it’s unread) and Cancel.

If I double tap to open a conversation I get a “Home, back” button at the top 
left, the name of the person in the middle followed by when they were last 
active and at the top right are “Audio Call” and “Video Call”.

I am just looking at a message where somebody just sent me a single message, it 
is read out perfectly with time and all and if I swipe right Voiceover says 
“Type in message… text field is editing”.

Underneath this is a row of items I can find by touching/dragging my finger or 
I can swipe right and all are announced:

Emoji, Camera, Photos, Stickers, Gifs, Voice, Games, More and Like.

As soon as I start typing something th “Like” button at the far right changes 
to a “Send” button.

The only oddity is that the far left item, Emoji, says “Selected” even though 
the regular keyboard is up. If I double tap on it the Emoji keyboard shows and 
the icon now says “Text, selected” and I can double tap on that to go back to 
the regular keyboard or there is also a “Toggle Text input” button at the very 
bottom left of the Emoji keyboard. If I use this to change back to the regular 
keyboard the top left item now says “Text” and if I double tap it it goes back 
to “Emoji, selected” but the keyboard stays on text until I tap this again. 
Like I said, this is just a bit inconsistent, but everything else for me seems 
to be perfectly accessible.

If I want to send a voice recording instead of a text message I can tap on 
“Voice” and the entire button part of the screen above the home button but all 
the way across becomes a big “Record” button. You have to double tap and hold 
this just as in Whats App messenger and after you let go anything you record is 
automatically sent.

Tap on “Text” at the far left of that row of icons to get out of voice 
recording mode and bring the on-screen keyboard back.

 

Regards,

Sieghard

Hi folks 

 

Since messenger 100.1 the app has become dramatically less accessible.

 

This is the report I sent to facebook this afternoon. So don’t update the app!

 

The latest update of Messenger 101.0 is very unaccessible, most buttons and 
tabs are nolonger labeled. this has been the case for update 100.1 as well, 
despite numerous messages sent by the blind community Facebook refused to 
restore accessibility. Now this issue will be sent over by me to numerous 
newspapers and all forums of the blind community saying that facebook is 
reluctant to solve these accessibility issues since update 100.1.

If facebook is nolonger willing to take accessibility into consideration for 
Messenger usage, please make the latest update before v100.1 back available on 
the Apple appstore.

Regards

Davy

Just in case I am somewhere other than my home, where there is a wireless

Does the App work with the Iphone, and the Ipad?

Does it work with one better, than the other?

Also, can I set recordings with the APP? If not this shouldn't really be a big

Can you watch live TV anywhere?

Also, can you possibly download things to watch later? Not that this is a big

Spectrum and accessibility Regarding the Iphone, or Ipad App

[Terri Stimmel]

Hello everyone,


Can anyone tell me just how accessible the Spectrum App is?

I have tried it a few times. But this was about 2 years ago, when I last had 
cable. Now that I have cable again, I would like to try it out..

Just in case I am somewhere other than my home, where there is a wireless 
connection.


Does the App work with the Iphone, and the Ipad?

Does it work with one better, than the other?

Also, can I set recordings with the APP? If not this shouldn't really be a big 
deal, as I do have the talking box.


Can you watch live TV anywhere?

Also, can you possibly download things to watch later? Not that this is a big 
deal if not. It's just more something I was curious about.


Any thoughts, or ideas anyone can give me, regarding the Spectrum App, would be 
quite appreciated.


Thank you,


Terri

Well, we are officially now Spectrum customers; TWC is going away.
I thought there was talk about changes in accessibility of Spectrum

Can someone direct me to information about this, please? The Spectrum

I use KNFB Reader with the profile that automatically takes a picture when it

KNFB Reader, then it will say “Lens covered” because it is covered. Maybe yours 
was too, maybe you had your finger over it accidently?

Go to the App Store; at the bottom, there are several tabs such as Search, and 
at the very right bottom, there's one called Updates. Double-tap on that one, 
and the apps that need updating will show up. Either double-tap on Update All, 
or you can update one by one; flicking to the right, after the app needing

was covered.  I don’t know how that happened but, now, after rebooting the App, 
it stopped.  Also, the voice changedI know how to change that but, where do 
you have other information announced such as the lenxe cover being covered?  
Thank you.  Andy and Shubert

RE: KNFB Reader and Gift Cards

[Sieghard Weitzel]

If KNFB Reader can't read it then I doubt anything else can. You may have to 
use Be My Eyes or that other app (can't remember the name right now) which 
connects you with a real person and then show then the gift card via your 
phone's camera or, if you have friends or family members with iPhones just call 
them via Facetime and ask them to take a look. I assume you are trying to get 
the gift card number? iTunes gift cards do have a barcode and can be scanned 
with the camera, not sure if others do, but that could be an option if the 
company where the gift card is from offers the option to redeem the card in an 
app or online using the camera.

Sieghard

All,

Does anyone know if there's a way to get the KNFB Reader to read gift cards to 
stores? I've tried it a couple of times without a lot of luck. If it can't, is 
there anything that can like the various money reader apps?

RE: Query regarding KNFB reader

[Richard Turner]

Once KNFB Reader starts reading, there is a speed adjustment button on the 
lower part of the screen.  A two finger double tap will pause the speech, then 
you could adjust the speed for that document.
Also, on either side of the play button, is a button for previous and next 
sentence.  Or, you can touch the screen and find the place you want to read 
from and use VoiceOver to read it, but that is awkward at best.

Also, if you go into settings, in the Reader section, you can set the default 
speed, you could also turn off automatic reading so you would have to hit the 
play button to start it reading or just use the next sentence button to read 
one sentence at a time.
You could also turn off the read in background setting so it won't keep reading 
when you switch to another app or just hit the home button.

HTH,
Richard

Hi All

 

I live in the U.S I am using an iPhone 7, running IOS 10.2 & have the latest 
update to Facebook messenger. The only button that is not labeled is the 3rd 
button across the bottom when the app is first launched; otherwise everything 
is labeled & easy to use.

I wonder if it has to do with the language although I know Ioana is also using 
English. I use an iPhone 6S Plus with the latest public release of iOS 10 which 
is 10.2. Maybe a few others who use Facebook Messengers can say if they are 
having problems since for me I would say it is 100% accessible and easy to use.

Hi Davy,

 

I updated to whatever the latest update was yesterday and have no issues. Can 
you be more specific wit some examples where you have problems or where things 
are not labelled?

I noticed that the third of out the 5 tabs at the bottom is not labelled, for 
me it says from left to right:

Home, Calls, Tab 3 of 5, Groups, People

When I double tap on where Voiceover says “Tab 3 of 5” Voiceover says “Tap to 
take photo or video” and I get a screen with a Close button at the top left, 
then a button to turn the flash on, a button to “Flip Camera” which is followed 
by Voiceover saying “Backfacing Camera” and then I have buttons labelled 
“Stickers”, “Draw”, “Text” and a “Previous” and “Next” button.

If I go to the “Home” tab I see all my conversations, I have a “Settings” 
button at the top left, a search field in the middle and a “New Conversation” 
button at the top right.

My conversations are announced as to whether they are “Unread” if they are new 
and Voiceover says “Actions available” which tells me there are rotor options 
which are Activate (default), Mute, Delete and More.

More gives me a pop-up menu with Block, Mark as Spam, Archive, Mark as Unread 
(or mark as read if it’s unread) and Cancel.

If I double tap to open a conversation I get a “Home, back” button at the top 
left, the name of the person in the middle followed by when they were last 
active and at the top right are “Audio Call” and “Video Call”.

I am just looking at a message

Hello folks. I don't post much on this list. But I aggree with Stacy.
This app is not as accessable as the other versons of Messenger. It
works ok. But not that great. For example, I was trying to messege a
friend who I haven't writen to in a while. I kept flicking to the
right on the screen. It kept getting me gack to the begining of the
people I messaged. In fact, I belive once I flicked on to the last
person who I messaged. The app braught me back to the top. what I had
to do is go to the tabs at the bottem. Then I had to flick to the left
and I was able to find others I have messaged in recent times. it does
work with Voice-over. But not like it has in the past.

I wonder if it has to do with the language although I know Ioana is also

if
they are having problems since for me I would say it is 100% accessible 
and

easy to use.

Hi Ioana

Thanx to inform me that I am not alone.
I had made an mp3 record for a very clever visually impaired iphone user 
and
she told me the app did not have a problem at all and even she had to 
admit

my message buttons were nolonger labeled.
Which iphone do you use?

I have had a similar problem for a few versions now but it appears that 
it's

not present for all voiceover users.
Thanks to Help I received on the list I learned how to find the send 
button

and that suits my needs for now. I did send them a report also bought we
will see what happens.

Best,

Ioana

Hi.
I have the update before the latest "one and have had no problem either. I
mentioned this because Davy's email said that this update... (not the 
latest

one) also had accessibility problems.
Davy, what IOS version are you using? Maybe that has something to do with
what you are experiencing?

Hi Davy,

I updated to whatever the latest update was yesterday and have no issues.
Can you be more specific wit some examples where you have problems or 
where

things are not labelled?
I noticed that the third of out the 5 tabs at the bottom is not labelled,
for me it says from left to right:
Home, Calls, Tab 3 of 5, Groups, People
When I double tap on where Voiceover says “Tab 3 of 5” Voiceover says “Tap
to take photo or video” and I get a screen with a Close button at the top
left, then a button to turn the flash on, a button to “Flip Camera” which 
is

followed by Voiceover saying “Backfacing Camera” and then I have buttons
labelled “Stickers”, “Draw”, “Text” and a “Previous” and “Next” button.
If I go to the “Home” tab I see all my conversations, I have a “Settings”
button at the top left, a search field in the middle and a “New
Conversation” button at the top right.
My conversations are announced as to whether they are “Unread” if they are
new and Voiceover says “Actions available” which tells me there are rotor
options which are Activate (default), Mute, Delete and More.
More gives me a pop-up menu with Block, Mark as Spam, Archive, Mark as
Unread (or mark as read if it’s unread) and Cancel.
If I double tap to open a conversation I get a “Home, back” button at the
top left, the name of the person in the middle followed by when they were
last active and at the top right are “Audio Call” and “Video Call”.
I am just looking at a message where somebody just sent me a single 
message,

it is read out perfectly with time and all and if I swipe right Voiceover
says “Type in message… text field is editing”.
Underneath this is a row of items I can find by touching/dragging my 
finger

or I can swipe right and all are announced:
Emoji, Camera, Photos, Stickers, Gifs, Voice, Games, More and Like.
As soon as I start typing something th “Like” button at the far right
changes to a “Send” button.
The only oddity is that the far left item, Emoji, says “Selected” even
though the regular keyboard is up. If I double tap on it the Emoji 
keyboard
shows and the icon now says 

Query regarding KNFB reader

[turab chimthanawala]

Hello guys
Hope this mail finds you well.
Wish to know of any way to adjust the text read out by KNFB reader, in
the sense that after taking a pic it keeps reading at a particular
pitch and a certain speed. Is there any way to change the speed or to
read from a particular line?
Best
Turab

Hi!
I'd like an advice on accessible and possibly free app for

Thanks!
