Hey Nick,
Great post and one of the reasons I like this list. No slamming detected.
Like yourself, I'm reporting bugs to Apple all the time and giving the same
feedback. Also like yourself (I think anyway?) I write my own software so

Right, I get that a lot hasn't been done. But, features are still
beeing added (even if they are few).

I saw a post the other day letting everyone know about another app like Fleksy.
It is called message in the dark. It is listed for one dollar and ninety nine
cents. I know nothing about it, but found it interesting.

Hi Dónal
Just to throw in my two cents also.
Fleksy is a nice application because it lets you type incredibly fast, and this
even applies to when VoiceOver is off for sighted users. Sighted users don't
have to focus as much on what they're typing if they already know how to
touch-type, and it
Hi Esther,
Absolutely everything you say is spot on and I guess I didn't make my meaning
clear. I wasn't having a pop at Fleksy; far from it. Rather I was bemoaning
the stagnation and lack of enhancements in Apple's own work over the past
number of years. In a properly architected system fle
Interesting that there's now a TUAW (The Unofficial Apple Weblog) article today
about Fleksy:

Not a lot of details, but it does show there's broader interest in this kind of
app.
Cheers,

Hi Dónal and Others,
First off, there are a number of predictive typing apps available for people
who want to take advantage of this on the virtual keyboard of iOS devices.
There are also applications like TextExpander, which make input of text on
computers and iOS devices more efficient by cu

no question Josh. But my fear is that Apple thinks it has done all it needs to
for those of us who are blind and need to access these devices. They have
responded to the need to provide accessibility by developing voiceover. Yep
it's free, generally usable and ticks oh I'd say, 85% of the box
Ok I get what you're saying, but, it's better than Windows where you
have to use Narrator to get a screen reader from the Internet. Now i'm
not bashing windows, it's still good for what Vo can't do. But I just
think vo is more universally accessible.

Travis,
I've played with the free app and personally have no intention of paying the
"blind tax" that seems to be on these apps. However I'll also add that I've
begun to chat with the developers (*smile* as a result of a mildly offensive
and rather negative tweet about the app) and they are ve
