Hi, I recently discovered an app which works great for pushing links or text to the iPhone from the PC. It works either via a Chrome or Firefox extension or you can bookmark a website where you can paste text into a text box to have it pushed to the iPhone. The push happens instantly and you can then do various things on the phone such as send the link/text as an SMS, copy it or open it in various apps (if it's a link). For the most part the app is accessible, but I have written to the developers because there are a few unlabelled buttons and it's difficult to delete items you previously pushed in the app, it requires you to swipe across the item left to right I think and even with a double tap and hold I can't get this to work reliably (mostly it just doesn't work). Old items do get deleted if 20 items have been pushed, but in any case I wanted to share the developer's reply. I did just notice that the app hasn't been updated in almost 2.5 years, but it definitely works fine on my 6S Plus ith the latest version of iOS 10 and it is not listed in the section where apps which aren't going to work down the road are listed so I assume it is already 64 Bit. OK, first the developer's reply, then after that I am pasting a link for the app in the app store and then the entire app store description. The app is free and there are no ads or in-app purchases:
Hi Sieghard Weitzel, First of all, thank you very much for letting us know that we do not take care of blind and visually impaired users. We tried to use QPush with Voiceover enabled for the first time in our life, and we were shocked to find that it was such a terrible experience. We felt very sorry that we did not take Voiceover into consideration while developing QPush. However, due to the lack of resources, (QPush is made and maintained by two friends during our leisure time), we may not be able to fix it in a short time. We will try our best to see if we can make any change to improve the experience for blind and visually impaired users in the short future. We'd like to let you know that even if we can't find a way to let you delete the message, old messages will be deleted automatically once the number of messages exceeds 20. Although it's not the right answer to your question, we hope this might be a little bit helpful. Again, we are deeply grateful to receive your letter but sorry that we could not help for now. Thank you very much for your understanding and support.
