That’s all well and good, but what about further development on Mobile
Accessibility for Android? You know, that $99.00 app which provides no
stable support for Android versions higher than Gingerbread? And by the way,
that is directed at Code Factory, in case anyone there actually cares about
any level of customer satisfaction.

New version of Nokia Screen Reader


New version of Nokia Screen Reader is now available on the Nokia Store!


Popular and free application now supports more than 40 devices and 29
languages!


Terrassa (Barcelona), Spain, October 17th, 2012

 

The highly popular Nokia Screen Reader application, which was released late
in 2011 for a limited range of devices and languages, has now been extended
to include support for virtually all Nokia Symbian devices released in the
last few years. In addition, it now supports a much wider range of
languages. And the best part for users: it keeps being a free application!

 

 “We’ve received fantastic feedback since the launch of Nokia Screen Reader
10 months ago,” explains Eduard Sánchez, CEO at Code Factory. “It’s been a
great leap forward for affordable accessibility, and Nokia is to be credited
for supporting the project. However, many users were disappointed that their
phone or language was not supported. With the release of Nokia Screen Reader
1.3, we are delighted to be able to greatly extend the availability of Nokia
Screen Reader both in terms of devices and supported languages, to once
again break down the barriers of accessibility.”

 

Major features of v1.3:

• Support for a large number of new devices. The full set of supported
devices is now: Nokia 500, 603, 700, 701, 808 PureView, 5320, 5530, 5630,
5730, 6120, 6121, 6210, 6220, 6700 Slide, 6710, 6720, 6790, C5-00, C5 5MP,
C6-00, C6-01, C7, E5, E52, E55, E6-00, E63, E66, E7, E71, E71x, E72, E73,
E75, N78, N79, N8, N85, N86, N96, N97, N97 Mini, X6 and X7.

• Support for a much wider range of languages: English, Spanish, French,
German, Portuguese, Finnish, Swedish, Italian, Danish, Dutch, Greek, Hindi,
Norwegian, Simplified Chinese, Turkish, Arabic, Croatian, Lithuanian,
Bengali, Bulgarian, Catalan, Hungarian, Malaysian, Serbian, Slovak, Tagalog,
Ukrainian, Vietnamese and Icelandic. Note that some of these languages do
not have a corresponding Nokia HQ voice, so it is recommended to use the
Nokia standard quality voice for these languages.

• Added the "Voice" option to the UI, which allows users to choose between
the Nokia HQ and the Nokia (standard quality) voices. Nokia HQ will still be
loaded by default when Nokia Screen Reader is first installed.

• Support for devices running Symbian Belle Refresh and Symbian Belle
Feature Pack 2 (FP2) firmware.

• Support for latest version of WhatsApp v2.8.14, the world’s most popular
mobile messaging application.
