Maybe I am missing something simple but I must ask this question. I have created an activity and set it up to come on when I open voice dream only. When opening voice dream I have the voice switch to eloquence and the speech rate set to 60%. I would like it a little bit slower with certain text Books can I not just go to 55% instead of 50 percent? 50% seems too slow but the picker will just not adjust by 5% increments. How do we not have the option to adjust the activities speech rate by increments of 5%? Is it like this for everyone else or am I missing something
iOS and iPadOS

Hello AppleVis,
I have attempted to search the web for a solution. So I hope one of you could assist. For some reason, I can no longer adjust the speed rate of voices on iOS 13.1.1. It doesn't matter which voices I use, whether they're Apple's Siri voices or Vocalizer voices, they're all staying at the same speed. I want to speed them up. What do you think the reason may be for this problem?
Thanks!

Whenever I use headphones with my iPod Touch, I can barely hear the sound effects that Voiceover makes when you, for example, double-tap on an app name to start it. (The volume of the speech itself is fine.) Is there a way to adjust the volume of these sounds?
Thanks.

A couple of days ago, I went into the accessibility settings for voiceover and changed some of the gestures. Now I simply cannot remember what the name of the gestures that can adjust volume or screen brightness up and down?
Thanks, John

My library allows downloads of e-books through Freading and Overdrive using Adobe Digital 2.0 I think. I can't get voiceover on an iphone 5S to read content in either app even though my iphone is registered with an adobe id and password. What am I doing wrong?
Thanks.

Dear All,
Does anyone know if the Adobe digital editions 1.8.3 application is available for Apple devices? This version of Adobi digital editions is an accessible version for screen readers and I was hoping that there was an ap version for the I phone and I pad to enable download and reading of e-books. Can anyone help?
Regards,
Steve.

Hi,
I am a student in school. I need an app that works with both iPhone and iPad that is a browser with Adobe Flash player that is accessible with Voice Over, as I am taking an online course. Any help would be greatly apreciated as soon as possible, as my class begins tomorrow!!!

Sometimes when I’m trying to read a webpage in safari, VoiceOver will continuously be interrupted by ads. Specifically, voiceover will keep saying something like, “this ad will end in five seconds, four seconds,” and so on, interrupting whatever I was trying to read each time. surprisingly, this happens even when I’m in reading mode which I thought blocked out all the extraneous page content and just showed you the text. Below is a link to a webpage exhibiting this behavior if you want an example of what I’m referring to. While annoying, I believe the link is safe.

Hi,
I'd love to hear from anyone who has aDT for home security and uses the app. I read in the app directory that it is completely accessible, but I'd like to learn more specifics about the current version of the app and whether there are ny functions that the app does not support.
Thanks!

I found an app that works really good on iOS. the adult swim app. Once you sign in with a tv provider, you can easily access dragon ball and other anime, along with other shows that come on cartoon network adult swim's night-time block of shows. The shows are even downloadable for offline viewing. The app supports airplay as well. Nearly all buttons are labeled.

Hi,
I just upgraded to IOS9 and I like it so far. One of the bugs that I have encountered is the Advanced Samantha voice is partially downloaded and it won't finish the download. VO just says 157 Mb out of 169 MB and then it won't download anymore, it just sits there like it's stuck. Does anybody know how to fix this? Please and thank you.

Hi All,
My 4S is jailbroken, and I just installed the ProTube extension which allows you to download videos to your i device from the regular YouTube app. Before installing this, I was able to advance through a vid by flicking up/down with one finger. Now, the only way to do this, is to double tap, holding on the second tap, and sliding from left to right. Anyone know why the YT app is now behaving this way, and if there's a way to revert back to how I was advancing through vids before?
Thanks, Shane.

I am in the process of starting up a blog on my self hosted website. I am using the Wordpress platform but I have found the dedicated Wordpress IOS app to be very inaccessible when it comes to writing posts as it doesn't readily let you review what you have written. Does anybody have any advice regarding what apps are voice over accessible and could be helpful for me? I am wanting an app which will let me write posts offline using my bluetooth keyboard. Something which has good keyboard shortcuts would be great as well as markdown support.

HI guys, what is the current state of MS Office on the IOS platform? Ever since it launched I@ve heard really good things, but i'm still not aware as to whether using it on an IOS product is comprable to using it on a PC. Inparticularly, Is there an easy way of navigating in both directions in excel using keys on a keyboard, or do you have to move your finger around a spreadsheet? does excel still have commands to focus on specific cells for example?

Dear Applevis Community,
As many may be aware the most recent DirecTV app update rendered the iPhone app totally inaccessible.
I have attempted to reach DirecTV’s app developer(s)/engineer(s) to explain the issue and how it is affecting the visually impaired community.
DirecTV will not allow me to contact the app developer(s)/engineer(s) directly.
The best I have been able to do is contact the Office of the President.
Their representative forwarded my concerns to the app engineer(s) on my behalf.
Although I didn’t receive an actual response from the engineer, the representative summarized th
