Accessibility Comments

The app has minor accessibility issues but can still be used. I’ve expressed this to the Disability Club team, for voiceover users, voiceover should detect the text such as the posting button which is at the top of the home tab, etc. My experience with it is OK my phone would generally say possibly and then compose. So I basically figured it out as I went.
The bottom of the screen displays more, notifications, and messages. The stuff that VoiceOver doesn’t read is like the I believe it’s the action buttons such as the you know actions for posts like making them private or what not, I can’t really post videos and or photos yet that is an accessibility issue that needs to be addressed I haven’t expressed that part to them I’m kind of doing this gradually but I am going to let them know that I did put their app on this website so they’ll most likely see what I said.
But other than that, it’s pretty easy to navigate and use unless you care about your posts I don’t know being visible to certain people or something and if you wanna share videos and photos as well that would have to wait. And or if you’re just like me who likes posting text rather than you know Media well that’s pretty accessible you just need to remember that the compose thing if voiceover catches it for you is how you would be able to post oh and the post button is readable with voiceover.
Messaging privately is pretty usable two, the text field is pretty readable with VoiceOver there’s just it acts like there’s two which I doubt that there’s two text fields but, you can definitely click on either the one that would say Noo line

Or just multi line text field if using voiceover both of them would activate and bring up the text field so, and to send the message it’s generally the last unlabeled button.

VoiceOver Performance

VoiceOver reads a few page elements.

Button Labeling

Few buttons are clearly labeled.

Usability

There are some accessibility issues with this app, but it can still be used if you are willing to tolerate these issues and learn how to work around them.

Thanks for sharing this, I just had a question though, are you able to make your own group? I noticed that there’s only three groups and two of them were active like three months ago and six months ago and the current one is within GTA it was active one hour ago mountain time, so is there a way to make your own group I am a voice over user. Thank you in advance.

My first thought when I saw an entry for this app was are we trying to work on further isolating ourselves from the rest of the world? I mean, hey I mean that’s just my idea. I feel like we’re already kind of off in our own little disabled people‘s bubble sometimes and I just really don’t wanna stay further in it than where I already am. I may have nothing wrong with being on site. You know to help disable people obviously I’m on here but I mean as far as like the rest of my life like I’m just glad that we know after high school at least in the US there isn’t like you know exclusively blind people you know, school or work pleasure or whatever I just feel like that would be even more isolating than what I already am. I could be wrong, but that’s why I stay on like you know regular Facebook and whatever. I mean, I’d say I just saw a social media for me. I really not the biggest fan of social media but I mean I just have a Facebook. Even though I’m barely on it, but yeah, I don’t know. I think it’s ironic today is an app for disabled people that has accessibility issues. Just saying. It’s interesting though. I guess people that are into that kind of stuff.

Some app intended for disabled users and yet not fully accessible? What a shame! I also partly agree with @Singer Girl about whether we should try to find or create a disabled-only space, which can actually be useful in some ways — like Applevis itself where we can express our needs and expectations, and discuss things that sighted users likely don't care or know much about.
