Hi everyone!
I just finished my first video project on iOS and thought I‘d share my experiences. This is not a guide, rather a set of observations and some questions. Perhaps some of you have tried similar things and have ideas on how to make some of these easier in the future.
So I’ve been interested in recording and sharing more video content these days but I’m running into accessibility hurdles at every step of the way. I have the iPhone SE 2020 and the latest version of iOS. Even trying to edit a video clip that I took in the native iOS photo zapped proved excruciating. I couldn’t figure out how to scroll through the video. There is a control that voiceover announces as a scrubber but it doesn’t respond to flicking up and down like I would expect.
Hello would you please recommend me some Accessible video editing apps for IOS aside from iMovie. Thanks
Hi all.
Recently I have been editing a lot of video using my PC
I use the machete app.
It is fairly accessible.
However it is a little quirky to operate.
I was wondering if anybody knew of a better app for editing videos that I could either use on my iOS device, or my PC
Hello, How accessible do you think the media playback window is in Safari and other apps? Playback control buttons do not appear on the screen. It only appears when we click on the screen twice and it stays temporarily and disappears from the screen again. Also, in the advancement section, we cannot track how many minutes have passed and remained, as it is now expressed in percentages. Can anyone with knowledge write?
Huge greetings from Russia to everyone!
I am a totally blind user.
I have an iPhone and there was such a problem.
Previously, including iOS 15.0 (and younger), everything was relatively good.
After updating to iOS 15.1, I found that the trim video function (start and end in time) is inaccessible with Voiceover.
The problem is relevant on iOS 15.3.1 and older.
After I start and end the video with Voiceover, the done button is disabled.
Hi again
Has anyone else noticed when you open facebook and flick right to go through your news feed that some audio/video automatically plays on some peoples posts until you swipe on to the next. I am not double clicking into their post or anything, just flicking through in the main news feed. Is there a way to get rid of this? You can't listen to voice over read while audio automatically plays when you arrive on it. It's maddening.
I recently updated to iOS 18, and whenever I play a video in the Photos app, I find that the video continuously loops. I’ve looked through the video settings as well as the on screen controls, and I cannot find any way to stop this behavior. I don’t want the video to play repeatedly. Is there a solution? Thank you
Hello. I would like to know where I can find my videos I have on my Facebook. I guess I could look somewhere but I don’t find it. Is this among the photos? That will make it fun to find. I see nothing on Facebook where it says videos but I know it is possible to find them but I don’t know where.
Edit: I don’t talk about live videos.
I updated to iOS 11 on my iPhone SE yesterday. Today I checked Cover Sheet just to see what it was all about. Ever since that time, when I unlock my phone and end up on the lock screen, there is a View Notifications button before the Press Home to Open button. There are no older notifications to view since I have seen them all, and this is reported to me each time I press the view notifications button. I would like to make this useless button disappear. It is not present on any of my other iOS 11 devices and was not present on this SE before I used Cover Sheet. Any help would be lovely.
Hello all!
I’m experiencing a bug with the Facebook app and I’m wondering if anyone else on here has experienced it too. I’m thinking about trying a workaround.
I’m running the latest version of the Facebook app on the latest version of iPadOS on an iPad seven. The bug is, that when I go to click on the view post button for a post that I shared to my page from a group, that button does not work with voiceover. Once voiceover is deactivated, the button works.
Is anyone else experiencing this? I’m getting ready to report the bug in the hopes that it gets fixed.
Hi
How does one view a person's focus status in the Messages app on iOS 15? I talked to a sighted person, who said that an icon shows up for them in the conversations view when focus status is on for a recipient, but I see no equivalent for VoiceOver users. Have I missed something?

Hello everyone,. I was listening to a recent podcast demonstrating how to share lyrics and audio clips in Apple music. The thing is, i just can't figure out why my phone isn't letting me view full song lyrics, so i can then go ahead and share them. As demonstrated, voiceover also tells me the lyrics button in the now playing screen is selected, but nowhere will it read me the lyrics. There is a "view full lyrics" option in the more screen which i tried double-tapping, but to no avail; still no lyrics. Just wondering if anyone might have any suggestions what i might try?
Hello everyone,
I needed some information in a text message which was sent two or so months ago. Unfortunately, when I tried looking in my messages app, it only showed message history to September 30, and I cannot figure out how to show older messages. Anyone know how this is done? This is under the current build of IOS.
Thanks
Hello, friends,
Hi, I am a very frequent user of the App Store. Sometimes, when I am trying to download some apps, I can't get to the place where all the details are. VoiceOver sometimes takes me straig to where it says "featured." Anyone know of a way to get around this?
Is there any accessible app where one can accessibly view and edit Microsoft Word documents on the iPhone? Would Voice Dream Writer do this?
I currently use OneDrive to store my MS Word documents and would like to be able to make changes on my phone as well as on my PC.
