Re: The new Youtube app on the Apple TV

2018-02-10 Thread Ben Mustill-Rose
Hi

Unfortunately it still talks with VO off. I can't really just turn VO
off every time I want to use it either as the inbuilt screen reader
doesn't work with search. VoiceOver doesn't work with search either,
so for me at least the apps a complete writeoff for now.

Cheers,
Ben.

RE: The new Youtube app on the Apple TV

2018-02-09 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
Isn't the Amazon Prime Video app doing the same thing? I find it curious why 
these companies/developers feel they need to make their apps accessible by 
including a self-voicing TTS when the Apple TV is perfectly accessible with 
Voiceover. I think we should let Apple Accessibility know about thios as well 
as of course Youtube. This would be like Microsoft starting Narrator on a 
Windows 10 PC in addition to Jaws with no option to turn it off.

Sieghard

Hello Ben,
Yes, I also get the TTS in addition to VoiceOver with the new YouTube app  on 
the  fourth generation Apple TV.  From my testing of the app, it does not seem 
like one can disable the TTS; it seems like a setting that gets enabled when it 
detects that VoiceOver is on. I did notice though that the parts of the app are 
accessible with the TTS at least and I could disable VoiceOver after getting 
into the app. I am not sure what occurs when a video starts playing if those 
controls are still accessible when VoiceOver is disabled.

Re: The new youtube app

2012-09-12 Thread Raul A. Gallegos
Hi, no you cannot remove stock apps which come pre-loaded with iOS. The 
best thing you can do is move them to a folder. For example, I have one 
called unused and this is where I put apps which come with the phone but 
which I don't use. I then move that folder to the very last page of my 
home screen layout.

Re: The new youtube app

2012-09-12 Thread gabey8
If I understand right, the pre-loaded YouTube app is going to go away when we 
upgrade to iOS 6. So I'm glad that Google stepped up to the plate and created 
an app we can install, in place of the one that's going to disappear.
