AccessNote is now free - this is not a limited time offer
Hello, After answering David's question about AccessNote and whether it was free for a limited time or whether it was now just a free app I realized this would be better in a new thread with appropriate subject. I am therefore reposting my message and to summarize, yes, AccessNote has become a free app. -Original Message- From: viphone@googlegroups.com [mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Sieghard Weitzel Sent: Friday, July 04, 2014 12:16 PM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: RE: looking ForAn App For App Deals Hi David, Yes, Access Note, which used to be $19.99, is now free. In an article on the AFB website it says the following: The American Foundation for the Blind Offers New and Expanded Free Apps to Help People with Vision Loss New York (June 25, 2014 The American Foundation for the Blind (AFB) today launched the all-new CareerConnect AppT, a tool for professionals, job seekers, parents and youth, and announced that AccessNoteR, a specialized notetaker for people who are visually impaired, will soon be available for use on Android devices. Thanks to generous support from funders, AFB is making AccessNote (formerly $19.99 in the Apple App Store) available free of charge. Based on AFB's popular CareerConnectR web program, the CareerConnect app is designed to be used on the go for job search tips, quick lesson ideas, and career advice. Key features include the CareerConnect blog tab, providing current info about navigating the employment process; transition-related lesson plans grouped by topic; and Our Stories, packed with informative personal stories from people who are blind or visually impaired and successfully employed in various fields. AccessNote, originally released in 2013 for use with iOS devices, is the first notetaking app developed and designed specifically for users with vision loss. AccessNote has been lauded for its user-friendly features such as easy text navigation, DropBox integration, compatibility with Bluetooth keyboards and wireless braille displays, and its powerful search function. "We're always looking for ways to expand access to technology for people who are blind or visually impaired," said Carl R. Augusto, AFB president and CEO. "Based on the popularity of the CareerConnect website and the original version of AccessNote we realized it was crucial to further develop these programs and offer them for free to a wider audience." The CareerConnect app is available for download for iOS, and AFB will be adding new features through the coming year. AccessNote will be available for download for iOS and Android.
