Hi Davy, I updated to whatever the latest update was yesterday and have no issues. Can you be more specific wit some examples where you have problems or where things are not labelled? I noticed that the third of out the 5 tabs at the bottom is not labelled, for me it says from left to right: Home, Calls, Tab 3 of 5, Groups, People When I double tap on where Voiceover says “Tab 3 of 5” Voiceover says “Tap to take photo or video” and I get a screen with a Close button at the top left, then a button to turn the flash on, a button to “Flip Camera” which is followed by Voiceover saying “Backfacing Camera” and then I have buttons labelled “Stickers”, “Draw”, “Text” and a “Previous” and “Next” button. If I go to the “Home” tab I see all my conversations, I have a “Settings” button at the top left, a search field in the middle and a “New Conversation” button at the top right. My conversations are announced as to whether they are “Unread” if they are new and Voiceover says “Actions available” which tells me there are rotor options which are Activate (default), Mute, Delete and More. More gives me a pop-up menu with Block, Mark as Spam, Archive, Mark as Unread (or mark as read if it’s unread) and Cancel. If I double tap to open a conversation I get a “Home, back” button at the top left, the name of the person in the middle followed by when they were last active and at the top right are “Audio Call” and “Video Call”. I am just looking at a message where somebody just sent me a single message, it is read out perfectly with time and all and if I swipe right Voiceover says “Type in message… text field is editing”. Underneath this is a row of items I can find by touching/dragging my finger or I can swipe right and all are announced: Emoji, Camera, Photos, Stickers, Gifs, Voice, Games, More and Like. As soon as I start typing something th “Like” button at the far right changes to a “Send” button. The only oddity is that the far left item, Emoji, says “Selected” even though the regular keyboard is up. If I double tap on it the Emoji keyboard shows and the icon now says “Text, selected” and I can double tap on that to go back to the regular keyboard or there is also a “Toggle Text input” button at the very bottom left of the Emoji keyboard. If I use this to change back to the regular keyboard the top left item now says “Text” and if I double tap it it goes back to “Emoji, selected” but the keyboard stays on text until I tap this again. Like I said, this is just a bit inconsistent, but everything else for me seems to be perfectly accessible. If I want to send a voice recording instead of a text message I can tap on “Voice” and the entire button part of the screen above the home button but all the way across becomes a big “Record” button. You have to double tap and hold this just as in Whats App messenger and after you let go anything you record is automatically sent. Tap on “Text” at the far left of that row of icons to get out of voice recording mode and bring the on-screen keyboard back.

Hi folks Since messenger 100.1 the app has become dramatically less accessible. This is the report I sent to facebook this afternoon. So don’t update the app! The latest update of Messenger 101.0 is very unaccessible, most buttons and tabs are nolonger labeled. this has been the case for update 100.1 as well, despite numerous messages sent by the blind community Facebook refused to restore accessibility. Now this issue will be sent over by me to numerous newspapers and all forums of the blind community saying that facebook is reluctant to solve these accessibility issues since update 100.1. If facebook is nolonger willing to take accessibility into consideration for Messenger usage, please make the latest update before v100.1 back available on the Apple appstore.
