I've noticed a few times that my status bar will become silent when touching the top of the screen. No time, battery, wi-fi or other information is spoken. Restarting VO does nothing. The only way I've been able to get the text to read again is to power cycle the phone.
As for what causes the status bar to go silent, I can't repeat this, however I do notice this occurring after fAceTime calls or phone calls.
Does anyone else have this issue?
iPhone 7. Latest iOS.
I don't know about you but accessibility has really gone down hill with the ring app and voiceover, however on my fire tablet ring works just fine like it once did on IOS. What happened? I sent them an email letting them know. Hopefully since amazon has bought ring they will fix this! Other than that I love the ring doorbell!
Hello Apple users, Koushik from India have been using iPhone from four years. Now my current device is iPhone 14 Pro Max, I’m really disappointed with auto language detection, especially Indian languages that too special mention towards South Indian regional languages. even though we added voices on router, but we can’t able to still Read any South Indian regional documentation. Automatically. I am posting here at the hope where it reaches to the Apple community. thank you.
I am very disappointed that Apple has not fixed this very long standing bug whereby VoiceOver keeps jumping to the top of the page when trying to read News articles in Apple's own News app.
This bug has been around for the last many builds, has been reported to Apple by lots of VO users, and is extremely frustrating!
Please all continue to write to Apple support and complain about this bug that makes it almost impossible to read news stories with VoiceOver!
Thanks.

Hi all. I had suggested an emoji search podcast a few days back. Since no one has taken me up on it, I have done a little research and here's what I found. The interface is cumbersome at best. Once in the emoji keyboard, you have the search field on top of your currently used ones. I found you have to write your term, find it, double tap, go back to the keyboard and hit space for the emoji to be inserted. for me, i wish they had used pickers as I find them easier and quicker to swipe through. Maybe I expected to much out of emoji.
It's with a heavy heart today that we're announcing the discontinuation of our award-winning iPhone keyboard.
Apple has thrown us obstacle after obstacle for years while we try to provide an app to improve people's lives, and we can no longer endure their abuse.
Read more about our announcement here, and thank you to everyone who has supported us over the years.
Does discord have an accessibility department that I can contact?
Discord is great with voiceover on iOS, but I’m having a problem and I’m not sure if this is a bug.
I’m trying to leave a server using voice over, but when I double tap on that option nothing happens.
Hello everybody, and Happy New Year.
I recently joined discord but the application is driving me nuts.
I'm not sure when this started happening, but now when I open Discord on my iPad Mini, I get the list of servers and channels, and the VoiceOver scrub gesture or Space+b does not close this screen and take me to the message list like it used to. Also, selecting a server in the list often opens the user profile or does something else random rather than changing the list of channels to the ones for that server.
So I tried to sign up to discord today on my iPhone, and what do I see. Image verification, great, I can just go down and there’ll be an audio challenge button, not a big deal
Oh my was I wrong
There was no audio challenge button anywhere! now tell me, why do you do that discord! That is so wrong on so many levels especially for visually impaired people Mark
What’s your thoughts on this whole thing that I have found out
Ok Guys, made a very interesting find regarding those of you who like me have a custom gesture to get to the status bar. As you know for quite a long time this gesture doesn't always work. I now know why. I have no fix but extensive testing has shown that I think I am correct. So, the issue is with certain apps. Which apps I have no way of knowing so for some it maybe different ones. For me the easy reader app caused the issue and at first I thought this could be a media issue. However, I don't think it is as audible did not have the same issue.
Is it now permissible for those beta testing IOS 13.1 to discuss it on this site? It would be nice to know what bugs are resolved in 13.1. I would think it would be OK to discuss because, with IOS 13.1 coming out on 9/24, the current beta release would be the Gold Master and, as I understand it, Apple is OK with the Gold Master being talked about on this sight. That is why they were able to post about IOS 13 before the public release.
Hello to all. What is the iGrill app's name, and how do I use the device itself? I got an iGrill for my birthday and want to know how to use it.

I am thinking of picking up tv and was wondering peoples thoughts of accessability of dish or directv? I had time warner and there app is a joke and no one wants to update it reguardless how much I've tried.
Hello, With the new OS coming up the keyboard hints on the iPad are going to be invaluable. Does anyone know how to dismiss them? Example: On the ipad when using a bluetooth keyboard with the current OS holding command for about 3 seconds brings up a rather nice command list. How do I dismiss the list? Pressing escape just takes me out of the app and back to the home screen. Thanks.
hi guys. i have updated my ipad to 17.4.1 (latest update). disney plus is also latest version. when playing something, there is a "direct touch" area in the app which lets you go back/forward on whatever is playing. this does not work with voiceover at all. i have tried adding it to the roter, adding it to the selected apps, removing it again, and all of the other usual steps you would take. holding the ipad in portrait or landscape does not make any difference either.
Hi I am in the UK does any one else have issues with the Disney Plus app on the iPhone? I am running an iPhone 10s with IOS13.4 and Voiceover. I have downloaded the Disney Plus app but when I open it none of the buttons on the opening page work. I can't sign up for a free trial or log on. Is anyone else facing this problem?
