A while back it was said that Pages app wasn't very accessible. I
wonder if that has changed. What is your preferred app for writing,
and working with documents, with voiceover on the iphone?
Is Keynote accessible or is there a better app?

Hi Catherine, Chris, and Others,
iA Writer exists as an iOS word processing app for the iPad, and is also
available for the Mac, but there is no iOS version of this app for the iPhone.
That explains why Chris couldn't find it. There are just some apps that are
available for the iPad that don't have iPhone versions, like the original
release of Pages. And of course, there are also apps for the iPhone that won't
run on the iPad.
HTH (with a PostScript for Catherine below my signature). Cheers,

P.S. I don't use very many abbreviations in my posts, but the few that I'm likely to use are "HTH" for "Hope this helps", "YMMV"
for "Your mileage may vary" -- meaning that you may have a different experience or reach a different conclusion/end up with a different opinion than
mine under similar circumstances, and "AFAIK" for "As far as I know". The most puzzling acronym I've encountered, at least on first
viewing, is "a11y" for "accessibility", although it's very commonly used in tweets. The general principle is that you write the first and
last letter of a word, and then give the number of letters that you're leaving out in between.

even better with the Iphone 5.

Is Pages for iPhone accessible for writing (with a bluetooth keyboard)?
If not is there something else that works well with voiceover for
writing on an iphone?
