iOS and iPadOS

Hi everyone. I lead accessibility at Intuit and always look to this site for advice. The forums are a wealth of information. Our engineers and designers would like to ensure our applications work with a bluetooth keyboard. I'd love to get some feedback from keyboard users about general usage.
  • What typically works well on your phone/tablet when using a keyboard?
  • What elements rarely work with a keyboard?
  • What types of apps or tasks do you use the keyboard with?
  • What visual focus indication works best for you?

Hello everyone... since the screen sensitivity bug has been squashed in iOS 7.0.3 I've been thinking of upgrading back to iOS 7. Something that is really important to me, however, is I have begun learning guitar and use the talking tuner app to independently and accurately tune my instrument. Does anyone know if that app still works in iOS 7? Any other thoughts on upgrading are welcome as well. Thanks much, Greg

2nd bug I found is find my app is not accessible with voiceover.
it is unusable with screen recognition as well.
the 3rd thing I noticed is that siri does not work's efficiently .

Hi I've got the netflix app on my iPod touch, and over all it seems pretty good in terms of accessibility. I'm curious, however, what exactly the deal is with scrolling while browsing through films in sub genre lists.

Hello all. Someone sent my wife via iMessage her contact card. She never has gotten one before. All VO said it was her name, but nothing else. She was told she sent her contact card. It took my wife a half an hour to figure out what to do with it. Could someone on the Apple VIS team or any of you can do a podcast on this? How do you save someone's contact card to your address book? Thanks.

Hello.
I was wondering if there was a good contact manager for iOS?
There was one called "interact" that was by the developer who made terminology.
It was very accessible. I'm trying to find something like it. I don't think Interact contacts is available in the app store anymore.

Hi all,
This app might help some people. I used it years ago, so I don't know if all parts of the app are accessible now so I'm a bit reluctant to put it in the app directory. It's a very specific usecase, and I haven't got any contacts I can sync to try it out again. I opened the app briefly and it looks similar to when I used it before. The description and the link are below. I've got the app installed on my iPhone 12mini running iOS 17.6.1

I am using an iPhone 4S, IOS Version 7.1.1, and 2 days ago, my contact list just disappeared. But thanks to this forum, I was able to retrieve my list by simply turning my phone off, and on, and then…..viola, there it was! However, I no longer see the Refresh button, that used to always be on the top left hand side of the Contact screen, just above the left hand side Search button.

I was able to contact Zynga support about the latest hanging with Friends update, especially the issue of inviting friends to play the game via facebook. Each friend's name is only announced by Voiceover as "facebook friend". Has anyone else noticed what i'm talking about? If you have, respond to this thread and contact Zynga support so they'll know more than one person is experiencing the issue. If they only get one person reporting an issue, they're likely to think the problem is isolated.

I have heard in the past several ways to get in contact with Apple about accessibility. However, I have a hard time remembering any of them. Could someone please reply to this message with a list of ways (e-mail addressed, websites, phone numbers if any) users can contact Apple about accessibility issues? Direct links to these would be appreciated. I'm just trying to get all these in one place.

Thanks.

Hello, everyone. I want to contact Invisions Technical Arts LLC, the developer of the Droptext text editor for iOS. However, the developer's website isn't listed in the app's description in the Apple App Store, nor can I find it using a Google search. It is also not listed anywhere in the Droptext app as far as I can tell. Does anyone know how I can reach them? Thank you. Craig

Is it possible with IPad OS 14.2 to put certain contacts on emergency bypass? For example, if I have my device on do not disturb, certain contacts can still reach me if necessary. If it still is possible, can someone describe how to do it?

Sometimes, when reading a book in iBooks, there are page footers that iBooks might read if you ask VO to do a continous read. This can break the flow of the text. Does anyone have suggestions as to how to work around this? Thanks.

Hello,

I have a question about the latest version of the TV app on the iPhone 7 with the newest iOS version. I have a couple TV shows that are all .mp4 and H264. A few are H265 but I didn't think I could ever play those.

I want to know if there is a way to continuously play TV episodes like you do with music tracks. Do you use different apps? Do you care? I ask because I find it inconvenient.

I know I can categorize them as music videos. But I want to watch them chronologically.

Hi, I'm subscribed to Cox Advanced TV with Contour, and they have the app available for the Ipad. I don't have my Ipad yet, but I'm wondering if anyone uses the Contour app and if it's pretty accessible. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Has anyone else noticed a major downgrade in how iOS12 handles contractions and other punctuation in text to speech? I use this feature extensively and noticed right away that it frequently pronounces contractions oddly. "That's" becomes "That S" and anything written with a possessive apostrophes gets similar treatment.
