Hey #blind people

I'll be going to #SightCity in #frankfurt on May 21 along with my fellow Be My Eyes engineers.

More BME people will be there all week, but the engineering team will join the party on the 21th.

Come say hi, bitch at us because we don't have x feature (ok you can but please be nice about it), and have a good time with us all (I know I will).

I've just discovered #AssistiveAccess mode on #iOS, also called #SeniorMode, that profoundly simplifies the #iPhone's UI for those suffering from cognitive decline like #dementia who need a mobile phone but can't grok its standard interface. You select the apps that you want to be accessible, set whether to present apps in a list, like the familiar but much less capable #Jitterbug, or in a grid, which contacts can be called, etc. May be a game changer.

#iOS #accessibility question: is it possible to use dictation or voice messages in Assistive Access? If so, how? I couldn’t find any way to do so. If not, why not (and could it be added? FB13494777)

I have a family member that I think could benefit from using Assistive Access but she sends most messages using Dictation and that means it’s not really an option

The #accessibility team at #Apple has been busy! There are 7 sessions scheduled for this week! Including: how to create accessible spatial experiences for #visionOS, how to adopt #AssistiveAccess, and how to perform automated audits! Can't wait to watch them as they're released!
