Hey, could someone actually tell me where to go to find that AppleVis accessibility guide page? I'd love to show that to a sighted friend of mine who knows hardly anything about Voiceover, but is a dev, and is working on an app. He's extremely! interested in reading up to be sure from the very

Geoff, You know? You make an extremely valid point. I honestly never even thought about that. And, for me being a dev myself, that's quite patheticly embarrassing for me to admit. LOL! My thing is, I've seen it in quite a few places, not just BardMobile. For this reason, I guess I just

Lol! Love the foot ball reference. I hand no idea megabus had an ios app! Yeah! Cool! this will make a trip I'm planning easier to plan. lol! Anyway back to the subject. I also suspect that it is a UI thing rather then an all out voice over bug that's global. If some can find out what control i

I can confirm Chris's observation while attempting to peruse Magazines via the BARD mobile app, however believe this is more of a function of how the UIPickerViewController in question was coded. For example, I was trying to bring the international audience into this discussion by locating a sc

Funny I don't have that issue, and they are actually called pickers, not tickers. All you have to do is find the bottom of the page as that's where they normally are. I have never yet, key word yet, lost focus on any pickers of any kind. When I'm done I just flick left to done and the item picke

After being alerted to this problem, I took a look. This is definitely a big bug with a stinger and a nasty bite. I've seen pickers with hundreds of items inside, and it makes it impossible not to just figuratively throw the iPhone across the room. We definitely need to inform Apple. Ben J. Blo

I just tried using the ticker items and doing my work around as I discussed in the previous message that I sent the list. I was hoping, in I O S when getting to a ticker item, I could just siply use the item chooser list instead of flicking through the ticker items one by one, thus eliminating

Has anyone noticed in I O S 7.02 that Apple in combination with Voiceover, broke the ticker items? Now, when there is one, you can't touch the bottom half of the screen any longer to get to it... you gotta flick to it. It's the only way, case closed. Second of all, once focussed, if you then

Hi Chris, I'll interleave answers after your questions, prefaced with a bullet symbol. I had problems creating custom notes on an iPad with VoiceOver using iOS 7 (your last question), which may be an iOS 7 specific bug, and why this reply took so long. I checked the process of note creation in
