Vlingo - Voice App
Description of App
This is very similar to the Dragon dictation app, with the advantage that you don't need to select contacts manually when texting. It also allows you to search the internet with your voice, and other very interesting features.
As described in the iTunes Store:
Tell your phone what to do! Vlingo’s intelligent voice application turns your words into action.
- “A safer way to text on the road”, “Vlingo will do whatever you've told it to do” - Wall Street Journal
- "Vlingo adds Jedi-like levels of mind tricks with the latest version of its iPhone app. - CNET
- "Users should consider thumbing their way over to Vlingo" - New York Times
PLEASE NOTE: Most features are free, but we do utilize Apple’s In App Purchase mechanism for sending SMS and Email. You can purchase these features from inside the app.. If you decide to purchase a paid feature, you only get charged a one-time fee. Future Vlingo updates always preserve your paid features – no need to repurchase.
Simply speak to your phone to connect with the people, businesses and activities that are important to you:
- “Text John; You want to grab a bite tonight?”
- “How many yards in a kilometer?”
- “Update Facebook; In NYC for the weekend!”
- “Call Lindsey”
- “Surf shops in San Diego”
iPod TOUCH: – We require headphones with a microphone to use this app.

Original Comments: As far as I've seen, this app is totally accessible, with the exception of the in-app purchasing feature, which doesn't seem to work with VoiceOver.

Comments
#1 Facebook integration is not accessible
I was able to add the Twitter integration, but not the Facebook one. I had to turn off Voice Over and tap around and eventually got it, but it was not straight-forward.
#2 twitter integration isn't straight forward either
I experienced the same problem as Raul, but I actually had it locked on facebook. I had to turn vo off and tap randomly, when I turned it back on I finally got to the twitter login prompt.
