Maybe someone has an tip or idea to help me.
After updating to IOS 13.2, I’m experience slow response from Voiceover when typing directly or via the built in Braille keyboard of IOS.
I also noticed slow response from Voiceover when moving through certain elements in Web pages like buttons.
Any ideas on how to fix this?
I’m using an IPhone 8 with the latest IOS installed.
Many thanks.

On mynew iPhone SE with iOS 15.o.2 I have had intermittent very very sluggish VoiceOver two or three times in the last week even powering the phone off and restarting did not solve it a hard reset did not solve it but within about a minute everything seem to be working OK
Anybody else experienced this problem?

In IOS 13, I occasionally encounter a lot of sluggishness upon opening the mail app and just after exiting the app. Does anyone know if this is a IOS issue or something specific to Voice Over? I don't suppose it really matters, as the impact is the same for me either way, but I'm just curious. It could be that IOS 13 pushes the capabilities of my iPhone 6s but I don't have this problem in any other app.

Hi all,
I had a small issue whilst installing IOS 6 and I just thought I’d let you know about it for those who are yet to install it and may come across it. Fortunately a friend of mine helped to solve it for me; I wouldn’t have thought of it myself.
So IOS 6 had finished downloading, and I happened to be standing right there when VO came back on.

How is it with the accessibility in Smart life now? I read in a post that the app is not available with Voiceover but the post about it was posted in 2022 so I was wondering if it has improved. I am going to buy an automatic feeder for my cat and it is controlled with smart life. But I can't buy it if the app is not accessible with Voiceover.

While going down the list of articles, after about 20 or so of them, the app jumps back to the top and gives the message that headlines have been refreshed. Now, I have to scroll down past what I had seen before. Very frustrating. Also, after quite a number of articles, my iPhone 14 pro reacts very slowly. Anyone else have or had these issues? Any suggestions to resolve them? Thanks.

I am trying to figure out what has changed with a SmartNews app. I could no longer get it to provide me the headlines for the news in a format where I can just click through and read one line description of each article and then the ones I want double click into those and read the whole article now it just gives me options for like each news provider such as CNN, Fox News, CBS, ESPN so forth With no article description whatsoever anyone else have this problem or know how to fix it

Hello everybody! I'm going to finish the renovation in my new apartment, so I'm looking for new home appliances.
I already use the Samsung Smarthings app to control the air conditioner in my precedent house; I find it useful and accessible, but with some problems.
Is there someone who is using smartings app in order to control the washing machine or other home appliances who can give me his/her opinion about the accessibility level of the app with this type of use?
Thank you.

Hi folks,
I am posting this because of a friend's question to me and I am out of ideas. Here's the situation:
Device, iphone 8 ios 16 (can't recall the actual final software value).
My friend has several folks she texts with who do not have iPhones. therefore she has to use sms messaging which recently seems to have become intermittent in working.
We have looked at her phone and under Imessage the Send as SMS button is on as well as including her phone number in the send and receive section. These ideas were provided by apple accessibility.

Does anyone know if snapchat is accessible with VoiceOver? Some of my favourite celebrities have got it and post videos so i'd like to keep up with them. However i've made an account, that was accessible, however everything else seems inaccessible e.g viewing people's snaps. Can anyone help please?

Is snapchat accessible with voiceover and do you think that there's a reason for a blind person to use it?

Hi,
Feliciano Godoy, Snapchat, Version 9.37.0.0 for iOS has VoiceOver improvements. Although Snapchats were able to be posted with VoiceOver off, now you can post using VoiceOver. What do you find accessible compared to the previous versions?

I try using snapchat on I-phone SE 2020. but till now, I didn't find any fruitful results. I can take snaps, but cannot view the ones other people send to me. I can send messages, but It's hard viewing what other people texted to me. It's tough locating different chats. also, map, stories and spotlight tabs are not accessible. I have tried using screen recognition alongside voiceover, but it did not work well.
Can anyone provide any sollution of it? since snapchat is very important app these days, inavailability of accessibility makes things chalanging.

Has anyone found a way to get the Snapchat app to work? When I open the app voiceover just gives me the blank screen sound but a sighted friend tells me there is a take picture button.
Is there a work around or something to be able to access this button to be able to take a picture?
I tried to tweet Snapchat and SnapchatSupport last week with no response.
Has anyone tried contacting them and gotten a response?
Also, there is the Twitter handles I mentioned above, but I noticed on the Snapchat website there is a place where you can give feedback.

I am posting to say that so far I have found no bugs when using IOS 14. I also I am using Alex. I have heard others say that when they are using enhanced voices that they have seen some delay when swiping on the screen of their devices when using the enhanced voices. I am submitting this post to say that that is not the case for me. Well I cannot speak for everyone that is what I have seen so far when using iOS 14.

That's at least my recent impression.
I tried Freeform on iOS and Mac OS and actually it's useless because of missing accessibility. I'm very disappointed.
Quick Draft works similar but only allows text. If this is enough for your workflow it's really a nice app to take notes on iPhone and the Mac.

At least that's what the email from the CNIB said, but when I went to the app store to download it, they still want $54. Ain't gonna happen. So, why say that it's free when it isn't? Can anyone shed some light on this for me? Maybe the app store is behind? I'm feeling really disappointed.
