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
Â
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!
Â
 “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.�
Â
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.
