**Releasing November 20th**

Hey Folks, I just wanted to share some information on the upcoming Adventure To Fate: Dungeons game. This is the next chapter in the Adventure To Fate series and will be the 7th release over the past 14+ years.

Here is a preview of the game and what sets it apart from the previous ones.

Hi all,

I make AudioBo, a Mac app that turns a folder of MP3s or a ripped CD into one audiobook with chapters. Until last week it only made M4B files, the kind Apple Books plays. Version 1.4.4 adds DAISY, the format that Victor Reader, Plextalk and similar players use, and I'd like to hear from anyone here who has such a player.

Why I built it: a user wrote that he records books for his blind mother, and her DAISY CD player would not play the M4B files. Every tool for making DAISY books I could find runs on Windows, so I added it to AudioBo.

Hi everyone,

Hi Applevis community. My name is Daniel, and I am the developer behind Tag Everything, an AI-powered NFC labelling system for your physical items.

I’ve soft-launched the product locally in Australia and I’m now looking for some more feedback as I release it globally.

Hello,

I asked the editorial team before posting this, and Michael kindly pointed me here.

I make Legato, a browser for macOS. It repairs a page's accessibility before VoiceOver reads it: unlabelled buttons get names, headings become real headings, focus order stops jumping, dialogs stop trapping you. It does not replace VoiceOver — it works with it, and you can keep your own screen reader and your own voice.

I am not here to announce it. I am here because I do not trust my own testing.

Hi everyone,

I'm a software engineer and I'm completely blind. Like many of you, I've spent years struggling with PDFs that are difficult or sometimes nearly impossible to navigate with a screen reader.

Reading shouldn't be this complicated.

Documents with broken reading order, poorly structured tables, inaccessible layouts, and scanned pages can turn something as simple as reading an article, academic paper, or technical document into a frustrating experience.

Hi everyone, I’m the developer of Echo Runner, I just wanted to give a quick update regards to my game. I’ve officially fixed the issue in Echo Runner where player progress—including levels, coins, and best scores—was constantly resetting. To resolve this and properly host the game, I’ve created a dedicated website for it on GitHub. I'm sorry for the inconvenience for those playing my game, and hopefully this resolves things so you guys can have a better experience! Here’s the link to my game https://e7chia.github.io/echo-runner/

Hello everyone,

I’m the developer of Folio, an iPhone and iPad app that helps you organize many different parts of everyday life in one place. I’ve been working on Folio for a long time, and it is now available on the App Store.

Folio is more than a basic to-do list. It lets you create notebooks that match the way you actually organize your life. Each notebook can have its own fields, categories, statuses, sorting order, reminders, and repeat rules.

You can use Folio for many different purposes, including:

Hello AppleVis community,

I’d like to introduce Li IPTV Pro, an IPTV player for watching channels and other content using your own IPTV subscription. The app supports iPhone, iPad, and Mac.

I started working on the app about a month ago, and I’m still developing and improving it. As a VoiceOver user myself, accessibility is very important to me.

You can join the TestFlight beta and try the app here:

Hello everyone, dear AppleVis community.

I would like to present my project Sonarpad, which is now also available on iOS and Android.

After creating Sonarpad for Windows and Mac, which you can find on the website https://sonarpad.com, I have finally brought my ideas to the mobile world too. These ideas have already had very good success.

At the moment, the iOS version is still in beta, but it has already been tested by many Italian testers. For this reason, I am happy to share it with you too.

Hello AppleVis community,

My name is Meriç, and I develop apps with accessibility at their heart. Today, I would like to introduce ZeroBooks Reader, my app for reading and listening to books, documents, and audio files on iPhone and iPad.

ZeroBooks Reader is a one-time purchase, with no app subscription or hidden recurring fees. It is fully accessible with VoiceOver and includes dark mode for people who prefer a darker interface, including users with low vision. Extensive settings let you tailor the reading experience to your preferences.

Hi everyone,

I’m Mathias, the developer of Package Hero, which some of you may know from its AppleVis entry.

My new game, Land and Crown (Land und Krone in German), is now available as an open beta through TestFlight. I’d like to invite anyone interested in medieval multiplayer strategy to try it and share their feedback.

Hi everyone,

I'm Roman, a developer from Brno in the Czech Republic. I have ADHD and a bit of dyslexia, and I made Tuneread so I could listen to the articles I save instead of letting them pile up. It has been on the App Store for a couple of weeks, and I'd really like to hear from people who use VoiceOver every day, because I don't.

How it works

Hi everyone,

I'm back with a new app! MusicFollow is now in public beta. It's a free app for iPhone and Mac that follows the artists you love on Apple Music and tells you when they release something new.

I built it because other release trackers I tried kept making VoiceOver lose its place: you mark an album as played, and you're sent back to the top of the list. With MusicFollow, after any action, VoiceOver stays exactly where you were. That's the number one rule of the app.

Hi everyone,

I'm a blind developer and I use VoiceOver every day, so OneDay was built and tested with VoiceOver from the start.

OneDay is a simple day counter. You add a date that matters to you, and it tells you how many days are left until it, or how many days have passed since it. Birthdays, anniversaries, a trip, the day you quit smoking, that kind of thing. It's not a to-do list or a calendar.

Hello AppleVis community,

I’m the developer of OutBrick: Block Sort Puzzle, a sliding-block logic game for iPhone and iPad. I’m sharing it here because accessibility shaped how I built it, especially support for colour-blind and VoiceOver players.

Hi everyone,
I’m Yan, the developer of Perception Assist. Some of you shared feedback on earlier versions, and I wanted to let you know that version 2.2 is now available on iPhone.
I’ve been working on Walking Guard. It now gives clearer alerts about nearby objects, repeats itself less, and no longer asks you to choose a mode before starting. I hope that makes it easier to use when you’re out and about.

Hi! I am an independent developer with more than 10 years of experience writing production code for big companies. I have just finished my own app, Radien, a network diagnostics toolbox for iPhone and iPad running iOS 18 or later, which also runs on Apple Silicon Macs.
