  Hi Philipa. In addition to Sieghard's suggestions, what I normally do when 
  I encounter such an app that is inaccessible, I contact the developers and 
  say that I'm blind and that I use Voiceover on my I Device. I also say that 
  if they implement accessibility in their products, more and more blind 
  users would buy your product. For example, I use an app from Sparkling Apps 
  that basically does everything that Siri does. It's called Voice Answer and 
  it's $2.99. When you open the app, you'll notice right away that there's an 
  unlabelled button you double tap to speak to it. I'm currently in contact 
  with them to remedy this problem and they're very cooperative to fixing 
  this problem. I told them that if they fixed it, more blind users like 
  myself that don't have a 4S or 5 would use it. However I need more people 
  like me to try the app and write to them at supp...@sparklingapps.com to 
  speed up the process. I will be demoing it in a podcast this Saturday 
  called The Quick Learning Techy Show if anyone wants more info about it.

ITV player inaccessibility

2013-01-24 Thread Philippa Woodcraft
hi all. 

as no doubt some of you know, ITV app on iPad or iPhone is completely 
inaccessible to VO users. below is what they said when my fiancee wrote to them 
and asked them to consider fixing the issue. would as many people as possible 
write to them and raise the point? we might be able to do something about it if 
enough of us complain?

thanks. Philippa
