Re: iOS 8.0.1 is out

I couldn't agree more.
Guys look, here's the deal, no technology company is perfect, nor will it ever be. Apple has gone through some great lengths to make the iphone family and macs accessible in so many different ways. Sometimes you just have to get creative and learn. Part of the issue is the specific app development itself. There are many apps where the developers don't know how to make their apps accessible although many of them are open to it and want to learn. I switched to an iphone almost 2 years ago and i would never go back. 
Take some time, learn, and spend some time with it, and you can't go wrong.

Cheers,
Jed

I may be overly loyal to Apple, even to the point of religion but i have to say 
that Apple has done a whole lot more than i ever expected a main stream company 
to ever do for us. As i stated in an earlier post, i don't think i have ever 
seen a bug that's not been fixed although it may have taken some time.

not finger ppointing at anyone, but at times, most times, i do wonder,
what is really the accessibility issue of Apple, and what is user
errores, or the lack of understanding and training for user usage.

I heard this over and over again, from different list how apple is
inaccessible for VO user, how Apple got so many different and
keystrokes to learn compare to jaws and windows and etc etc. But,  do
these users really give VO a chance, putting window aside, for say, 3
months, and really focus on VO


And these people also often forget to celebrate the good things of
accessibility on apple products, but instead, decide to focus on the
bad things and how inaccessible apple products are for VO user.

I'm not saying apple is perfect, in many ways apple is far from
perfect, or the ideal technology for blind  users. But at the same
time, if Apple is so inaccessible, why then, there are more and more
blind and VI professionals switch to Apple instead of stay on with
windows?

yes friend absolutely right.
I also share your words ...
I sold my imac because I was tired of the irresponsibility of the apple.
I thought things were better in IOS and with the money from selling the
imac bought an iPhone.
but once again the apple disappointed me because it is the total
irresponsibility on all your systems ...
vo on OSX, is stopped in time.
Apple does not listen to us and no longer serves us as it should ...
I think that apple is no longer able to continue to innovate the vo.
if apple would hear us things would not be this shame ...
we must have the same rights as the sighted people.
let's stop  to say amen to favors that apple makes us ...
apple stop  sleeping in the spotlight ...
open your eyes and stop being irresponsible ...

Hmmm, I think everything has a limit. Apple makes great products, even
though, it should not be a excuse to start doing this kind of things.
Since this last year, me and apple are very mad. Mad, because I am
noticing that for them, when they have a huge reputation, they want to
sale more, and IOs and other examples is something that apple is not
testing enough, just to  make more money.

Anyway. I am very happy now, with my IOs 7.1.2, and you know what?

I have less than one year using this IOs 7.1.2, why I will install a
new release with bunches of bugs?

It doesn't make sense. But it is my opinion, and I respect who wants
to try something new, when they know that IOs8 is getting a lot of
problems, related with the accessibility, and not with the accessibility.

Neal,

I think that Apple is trying so hard to satisfy the people who are
impatient that they are cranking out the updates too fast and don't
have time to properly check them.  Having seen what has happened last
year and this year also, I still think that they feel that timing to
put out the new product is more important than coming out with the
right thing from the get go.  They set themselves a deadline and go
crazy trying to stick to it and the result is what we get.

I guess they have evaluated that their reputation can stand the
problems and they seem to be right. No matter how many bugs there are,
people seem to forgive Apple for putting out a product before it is
ready. When people camp out on the sidewalk for two days to be the
first to get the new product, I guess you don't have to worry about
several dozen bugs.

Hi, I applaud Apple's quick update release. What is bothersome is that
they put out an update not knowing about the issue that caused them to
pull it. I bring this up only to ask a question. For those who are on
the beta team, do you get to see these updates first, or is the
testing of these done in house. This also raises the question of
updates released that may, in fact, break things that already work. I
guess we will have to wait and see, but I am curious about who tests
the updates they release.

FYI, Apple has just pulled the update. You can no longer get it; I
imagine it will be re-released soon with a fix for the problems on the
iPhone6.

However, I've heard that some users are losing cell service and that
the update also breaks touch ID. I think I'll wait!

    Checking the changelong, there's no specific mention of
    accessibility fixes, but maybe those who install it can comment on
    whehter they notice any improvements on their devices...
