Re: App that allows editing of Word documents.
You know if Pages etc. are that important to you, I would strongly suggest you write to Apple if you have not done so. YOu can send a message to accessibil...@apple.com post feedback via the iTunes store, or use the feedback mechanisms APple provides on their website. I have send my issues along, but the more the better. Obviously there is always an issue of resources and priorities. The challenge is balancing the needs/wants and resources.

Re: App that allows editing of Word documents.
Hi, I tried Documents2 a few months ago, but I was unable to bring focus to the text of any document, whether I had written it or it was created by another program. I could start typing a document, but once focus was elsewhere, I couldn't get it back. Frustrating, as it looked interesting.

Re: App that allows editing of Word documents.
Yes I do find that strange despite Apple being at the core of Accessibility, no pung intended smile. I use Textedit myself. That's because I do not need to do serious office work. Even if I do in the future I have my Windows laptop handy or I could look into virtualization or bootcamp. But I recognize this is not a one size fits all solution. Sent from my Windows laptop.

RE: App that allows editing of Word documents.
Has anyone tried Documents 2? I have not tested it extensively, but it seems like a pretty good app so far. - Original Message - From: "Richard Turner" Pages, with a keyboard, and lots of patients some say, will work, but it is not quick.

Hello all, I recently downloaded Microsoft Sky drive on the iPhone and wanted to edit one of the files in my account. The app attempted to find a compatible app on my phone that would edit the document, and that leads me to this question: What apps, can you suggest that will edit a word document on the iPhone?

RE: App that allows editing of Word documents.
Sad to hear that its not quick, but anything is better than nothing. I have a Bluetooth keyboard so that should work with this app. Thanks for the information.

Hi I'm so happy to hear that you can readmit-page with your display. Could you tell me how you navigate form page to page? Thanks loads.

Hello, Now this is the current holly grail for an app that is accessible. There are quite a few apps which will let you view MS Word format files. There are a few which will let you edit such files.

I am unable to comment as I do not use such a keyboard. Again, with my braille display using cursor routing buttons, I am able to properly edit even multi-paged documents with Pages.
