iOS and iPadOS
Hi all,
I'm testing a WeWalk smart cane together with WeWalk smart map application on my iPhone SE 2022, iOS 17.3.1.
GPS navigation during walking works excellent, but I have a problem with GPS navigation in combination with public transport.
I have connected WeWalk, set location to always and turned on exploration mode.
I enter my home adress and adress of my work place. After that, I choose the best transport option, which includes walking, driving in a tram, than walking again, than driving in a bus, than walking again to the building I work in.
WeWALK Enhacing the mobility of the visually impaired.
WeWALK is the all-in-one platform for getting you from one place to another and for exploring the world around you, designed for and by the visually impaired. Get guided navigation, find out about nearby points of interest, and access public transportation. With multiple exciting features that work in harmony with one another, think of WeWALK as the Swiss Army Knife of visually impaired travel apps.
When the WeWALK had first come out, we had shared our excitement with you about it on this forum.
Today, we would like to inform you about what has happened since then and about the new developments.
*First of all, if you don't have a cane, you can test all the features. We are waiting for your comments after trying.

WeWALK is a navigation and exploration app for iOS and Android mobile devices, thoughtfully designed with our research, experience, and the input from our wonderful visually impaired community.
I'm not sure how many WeWalk users we have on here but is anyone else finding that the app when location is set to always is draining your phones battery and causing it to get very warm? I know that having an apps location set to always verses only while using can drain battery but this app is pretty thirsty.
What doors have been opened for you thanks to screen recognition? I just got my new iPhone 12 pro and want to try apps that are usable with screen recognition.
Hi! Is there any improvement in ios8.2 for the notification bug in locked screens? i.e. Most notifications are not spoken when push messages come in from certain apps as twitter or news apps. In unlocked mode however they are spoken properly. This is an important bug for me whether to decide to upgrade or not from ios7 to 8.
Regards
Davy
Hello.
I am a Telegram Android user, i'm very happy for a news regarding the Accessibility of the app Telegram for IOS, but after a few months I saw that accessibility was and remained very disappointing on Telegram for this platform. In fact, Nothing was done for reading the unread message counter, for the continuous scrolling of messages in groups and for many other things. Ecept Telegram Web, any other app that can access the Telegram service?
I now use a lot more Telegram than a Whatsapp :-)
Many Thanks

Hi All,
Need an accessible graphing calculator, preferably one that is optimized for the iPad—and not just the iPhone. Does anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks!
Hello,
I currently use the iOS mail app on my iPhone, but am looking for other options. Which mail apps does everyone recommend? I have a GMail account, and the iOS mail app does not support push notifications.
Thanks everyone!
I cannot remember the last time I saw a goal in Standland. Every day I waste time adding more points, but since finishing all of the goals in 2018, I have yet to see another goal. What am I missing or should I just delete this seemingly useless app?
Hi,
No wonder brail is a dying skill. It seems exceedingly difficult to find a way of reading a book which doesn't have issues. What follows is my experiences and issues with various apps I've used to try and read books on my brail display whilst connected to my iPhone.
I am just curious. What apps do you have in your dock on iPad?
I have Dice World, Messages, Safari, Music, Gladys, files, facebook, app store, Pages, mail and gmail.
Hi everyone
J.J. Meddaugh and I are working on a project for next month's CSUN conference to build a collection of tools that help small businesses and entrepreneurs. We are looking for accessible applications and resources that enable people to start and manage their businesses.
Hello!
I'm an Mac and iPhone app developer and have been researching into accessibility in iPhone apps. I'm sighted and have previously added accessibility support to existing apps, so I'm familiar with what's necessary to make them accessible, but I have not actually tried using apps regularly with just VoiceOver.
Hi All,
I may soon need to use local taxis to get around in my small town in Southern Oregon, population 22,000. What apps do you find most helpful for calling a taxi?
Smile. Thank you!
