Subject: Re: contacting app developers


Hi,  The regular channel is an app detales page where generally you will find 
an email address useful for contacting an app developer directly.  
Unfortunately, my experience with microsoft is that you will get an 
autoresponder alerting you that the email address on the store is not  
monitored.

Microsoft has an accessibility phone number.  Unfortunately, when I called it 
to address accessibility issues with a microsoft app I was told the 
accessibility department only handles desktop computing issues.  I was shuffled 
around to two or three other people before I got fed up of repeeting myself and 
getting stonewalled.

I left a less than favourable review.  Two months later some one responded to 
me directly on the play store as my particular product is android based.  Then 
I could not find a way to respond back to their comment, which amounted to them 
saying "do you still have the problem?", and my attempting to say, "Yes of 
course,  It's not going to go away on it's own".

Most developers are very responsive, even if the response is merely "we don't 
care about accessibility and have no plans to improve it".  Microsoft is a 
different animal.

If any one has managed to get through to some one at microsoft to talk about 
accessibility of it's mobile apps, I would love to know how you did it.

Best,

Erik

Hi Listers,

I’m looking for some advise regarding a currently inaccessible app on my IOS 
devices.

The app is the Microsoft RDP client which as it is is very accessible until you 
make a remote connection to a machine in which any accessibility features go 
out the window or down the shute  depending on how you look at it.

I’m wondering how best to go about contacting the developers to ask if they can 
include a screen reader type feature to read out the remote connection window 
content?

Can anyone give any ideas on how this would be best done?

I’m hoping that doing this might lead to getting apple to do something similar 
from the IOS platform to a remote OSX connection.

Much thanks for any assistance you can provide.

Simon F
