RE: All Access update is out - search by typing part of a restaurant's name
Hi, If the restaurants are not listed by type of food, they won't come up and a lot of them are not. Rather than search by category, search by name such as Subway or McDonald or any other chain name and they will all come up with the closest to your location first.

RE: All Access update is out - search by typing part of a restaurant's name
Hi Larry, I find this is true in general for Points of Interest in GPS applications as well. Unfortunately there is nothing much Todd from All Access can do since his app uses the information from a service called Locu.com so if a restaurant hasn't registered with Locu.com or fails to take their information off if they close down then then this is what happens. I think that in time this will get better and better as restaurant owners realize that registering with services like Locu.com is of benenfit. Locu.com also provides information to apps like Open Table, Trip Advisor, Yelp and so on and it makes sense that there is a service like this where everybody else gets their information since no restaurant owner can possibly keep up with all the apps out there and register separately with them. We are after all still in the infancy stage of mobile computing and I bet in 6 or 8 or 10 years we all look back to 2013 and scratch our heads wondering how far things have come just as we do now when we think about computers, computing power and the internet in general. In the meantime apps like All Access may not offer a Wow experience every time you want to go to a restaurant, but every time you maybe make a restaurant owner aware of something like Locu.com and he or she decides to post their menu you help to improve the app. Regards, Sieghard From: viphone@googlegroups.com [mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Larry Lumpkin Sent: Sunday, June 30, 2013 7:21 AM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: RE: All Access update is out - search by typing part of a restaurant's name I'm finding that restaurants I know to exist aren't shown and restaurants that have been out of business or years are.

Re: All Access update is out - search by typing part of a restaurant's name
Thanks. We are planning to add a button that will let you report 'stale' data but for now, please use the Feedback button on the home screen of the app, and try to be specific (i.e. include your location, the restaurant name, etc.) We are reliant upon the Locu.com database, which is also providing data to Yelp and GoDaddy.com, so we expect it will get better. Restaurants can also add their info for free, by visiting www.Locu.com or contacting us, so please encourage the ones you like to do so. ---todd t...@allaccessmenus.com On Sunday, June 30, 2013 10:20:33 AM UTC-4, Larry Lumpkin wrote: I’m finding that restaurants I know to exist aren’t shown and restaurants that have been out of business or years are. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the VIPhone Google Group.

Re: All Access update is out - search by typing part of a restaurant's name
Gary, Try searching for 'All' or searching by name. Sometimes those restaurants may not be categorized correctly in the Locu.com database. They might be under American not Steak. Or not classified as a restaurant even. It's out of our hands. I've asked Locu and they may have a solution soon. But for now, try ALL or name search. There are over one million menus in the database so you should be able to find quite a few near you.

Re: All Access update is out - search by typing part of a restaurant's name
Todd, I downloaded the new upgrade and it works great! I actually was able to pull up all the Olive Garden restaurants in town and they were listed by distance closest first, farthest last. I've also been having a ball making crazy ring tones with auto Ring tone Pro. For example, using one of the sound effects I won't mention here, then the whispering voice says not in church Junior The transporter sound is heard and multiple voices say We are the Borg.

Re: All access update.
Hi all, I downloaded it and tried it out and it is amazing. It is so great to be able to see the menus and descriptions of items in the food establishments in my area. It is definitely going to come in handy when I travel. Thanks Todd.

Re: All access update.
Bob, it is an app whose long name is All Access Talking Menus which gives menu information for restaurants and other business information for other establishments in your area; many people really like it including me. It is a free app. Give it a try. Paul -Original Message- From: Bob Straughn, WR4FSU, LAPTOP Sent: Friday, June 14, 2013 9:14 AM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: All access update.

RE: All access update.
Hi Bob, Paul already answered your question, but I thought I add a few tips which will make it easier for you to find information without having to wait for an answer on the list. As you probably noticed the Viphone list has a very high volume of messages and if every new member asked over and over again what a certain app is or does especially if it has been discussed before, that volume would go up even more. Please don't think I am trying to discourage you to not ask questions, but as I said, here are a few tips which help you in getting the information faster and often with more details: First, if an app is mentioned and Jennifer included the entire name All Access Talking Menus it is relatiovely easy to type that into the search field of the App Store app or, and I find this often even easier, just google it. If you add on iTunes to your google search, just about every time your first search result is the link to the app you are looking for on the app store and then you can easily read the app description, see what's new and what the cost is. For example: All Access Talking menus on iTunes will bring up the app store link as the first search result. Another way to look up information is to follow the link at the bottom of each post to the list archives. Here you have a single search field and if you type in an app name or, for example, bluetooth keyboards you are likely to find lots of posts which you can review. Lastly, the website www.applevis.com is a great resource. There are many app reviews, podcasts and How-To tutorials and just as you can do a google search for an app name followed by on iTunes, you can also add on Applevis and you most likely find links which point you straight to the relevant article on applevis.com. Welcome and have fun with your iPhone or whatever iDevice you may have.

Re: All Access update is out
Hi Alan, Thanks for the kind words. I checked the Locu.com database, and the Olive Garden is indeed there, and listed as Italian, but for some reason, they are listed not as a restaurant but under the category active life In the next update, there is a button for ALL that will include all businesses, so then Olive Garden should show up. I'll try to get feedback to the Locu folks to clean up the database. Thanks and take care.

RE: All Access update is out
The web site seemed only partially usable, I tried to check out stuff because we were taking friends there last week, looked to me like part of the menu were present, not the whole thing. I got better results with Where To, an app that costs a small amount, but when I got there with friends still had to have the menu read to be sure the dish my mouth was watering for was still there.

Re: All Access update is out
Todd, many thanks! - Original Message - From: Todd Bernhard To: viphone@googlegroups.com Sent: Saturday, June 08, 2013 10:30 AM Subject: Re: All Access update is out Hi Alan, Thanks for the kind words. I checked the Locu.com database, and the Olive Garden is indeed there, and listed as Italian, but for some reason, they are listed not as a restaurant but under the category active life In the next update, there is a button for ALL that will include all businesses, so then Olive Garden should show up. I'll try to get feedback to the Locu folks to clean up the database. Thanks and take care.

I think their web site is Olive Garden dot com and they do have their menus on their site. I do the same thing.

I got better results with Where To, an app that costs a small amount, but when I got there with friends still had to have the menu read to be sure the dish my mouth was watering for was still there.

Thanks for announcing the update and saving me the trouble! I was going to do so this morning, so you're like my own public relations firm! Okay, Sieghard may be a special case and literally only have one restaurant nearby, at least according to our database. Remember, the old app showed businesses like spas, salons, etc., so now there are going to be less results. When there is exactly one match, it doesn't bother showing a list, but takes you directly to the info for that one business. From our emails, I know you live in a somewhat rural area in Canada. You can change your location using the Settings button from within the Help screen. We plan to make that Settings button a more prominent button on the opening screen. If you change your location to Vancouver for example, you might get to experience what the app has to offer in a more populated city. In fact, I just pretended to be in your city, and experienced what you did, then changed it to Vancouver and got a lot more results. Those hidden buttons are just redundant. People were complaining because they were text fields that displayed the name of the meal, etc., but that info is also provided with the photo button. Folks thought they could type in them, because they are text fields, but they were flagged as not editable. So we have hidden them from voiceover. But now it appears you could get a unlabeled button notice when you try to identify it. I am open to suggestions as to which direction to go. Perhaps we do not hide them but specifically say this is a non editable descriptor? I try to monitor this group, but the most reliable way to provide specific feedback to our team is using the feedback button on the home screenof the app. I will be at the Association for the Blind and Visually Impaired today in Rochester, NY getting first hand feedback, and plan to submit an update tonight based on that and your emails. Thanks! Thank you for your patience. I think you can tell we are trying to incorporate all your great feedback as quickly as possible, within the limitations of Apple's approval process. Also, next week my team and I are presenting the app to potential investors in New York City. With such an investment, we can keep enhancing the app, adding restaurants, porting it to Android, and take it to the next level.

Re: All Access update is out
Has anyone figured to scroll to the next 25 restaurant selection? thanks -- From: Lisa belville missktlab1...@frontier.com Sent: Thursday, June 06, 2013 8:20 AM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: All Access update is out Yes, yes, to all of this. I was just coming on here to ask how to find out what those unlabeled buttons are. I can only assume they have to do with adding something to an order, but considering those buttons are available elsewhere within individual descriptions as well as in every menu I've looked at since the update, some clarification would be helpful since activating them doesn't seem to make anything happen. I do like what I've seen so far, though. Chocolate is the answer... who cares what the question is!

The app does seem a bit more streamlined and interestingly enough when I went to Nearby it went straight into the listing for a restaurant here called Alpenhorn, I assume maybe because it's the first alphabetically. This restaurant didn't even show up before in the app, now it is there and has the Menu with descriptions and pricing. very nice. However, maybe Todd can answer this, after each menu category as well as after each dish within the categories there are anywhere from 1 to 3 unlabelled buttons which don't seem to do anything, I assume maybe they are pictures and, if so, couldn't they be hidden to make swiping through the dishes a better experience? Also, it would be nice if that z-gesture for activating the back button could be implemented. I find it more intuitive and faster than to find the back button at the top left each time and use it a lot in apps where it works. Lastly, how do I get back to the listing of restaurants? I am placed straight into the listing for Alpenhorn when I tap on Nearby. I am on the main screen with the following layout: Top Row: Back button at the top left Alpenhorn Bistro and Bar button in the middle Help button at the top right Under Back is the Menu button and it is the first swipe right from Help. Under Help is the Map button and it is next if you swipe right again after menu. Underneath Menu (on the left side) is Phone and it comes after Map if you continue swiping. Under Map (on the right side) is a Web, button, once again, it's another swipe right after phone. Last is the Weather button and I seem to only get to it by swiping right one more time from Web, if I move my finger around the screen to explore I can only find Menu and Phone on the left and Map and Web on the right. OK, so I just did a 3-finger swipe up and Voiceover said Page 2 of 3 and now the Weather button was there right under Back which means the other 4 buttons on page 1 were now off the screen. There is a page 3 of 3, but it still only has Weather. All in all, it's much easier and faster to swipe to the button you want since there are only 5 and, I guess in cases where there is no menu, there would only be Map, Phone, Web and Weather. If I double tap on Back from the main screen of the Alpenhorn Bistro and Bar I get Back at the top left, Results in the middle and Help at the top right. However, the rest of the screen is blank, i.e. Voiceover says Empty List which is strange since it did go straight into the one restaurant and in the last app there were quite a few listings for my town. A 3-finger swipe down says Refreshing Content, but still nothing shows up in the list. Across the bottom I see 4 categories, Select All, Select American, Select Bakery and Select Bar/Pub/Brewery. A 3-finger swipe from right to left tells me it is now on page 2 of 7 and 4 new categories show up: Select Bbq, Select Select Chinese, Select Coffee/Tea and Select Deli/Sandwiches. If I double tap on Select All it goes right back into Alpenhorn Bistro and Bar and I seem to be unable to see or select any other restaurants. In fact, when I first double tap on Nearby on the main screen of the app and touch the screen in the middle it says Accessing All, but once again, the list is empty and it goes straight into Alpenhorn Bistro and Bar. OK, Todd, how much is Sascha, the owner of the Alpenhorn paying you for doing this *smile*. There is also a Search for Business by Type button on the main screen, but it does the same thing, it goes straight into Alpenhorn Bistro and Bar. It would be interesting to find out if others experience the same thing, i.e. if it goes into an A listing for where they live with nothing else on the list. I know Todd monitors the list, so I look forward to any comments as well as reviews from other users. Regards, Sieghard

Re: All Access update is out
Thanks! I just submitted another update that makes sure all buttons are labeled, or hidden if they are extraneous. I've been playing with this version, using voiceover, with gestures, and it's working quite well if I say so myself. I will post a message when the update is approved.

Across the bottom I see 4 categories, “Select All”, “Select American”, “Select Bakery” and Select Bar/Pub/Brewery”. A 3-finger swipe from right to left tells me it is now on page 2 of 7 and 4 new categories show up: Select Bbq, Select Select Chinese, Select Coffee/Tea and Select Deli/Sandwiches. If I double tap on “Select All” it goes right back into Alpenhorn Bistro and Bar and I seem to be unable to see or select any other restaurants.

Re: All Access update is out
The app shows 25 matches. We could add a button for the next 25 but currently it doesn't show more. The next version, which is waiting for Apple's approval, makes it easier to search by cuisine so you can find 25 Chinese restaurants near you, etc., so that might be plenty. It is also easier to change your location so you can search the next town over etc. t...@toddbernhard.com iPhone Life Magazine http://NoTie.NET Sent from my iPhone 5 -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the VIPhone Google Group.

Re: All Access update is out
Hi Todd, It would be helpful to be able to expand one's search in the same town or city. For example, I'm going to a restaurant in Albany, New York where I reside. It doesn't show up in the 25 listings. I know what street it's on, so if I can search by a specific street, I'd likely be able to locate the restaurant in question. If one could search within a certain radius as is often the case with GPS applications, that might be another way to attack this. Thanks for your efforts and I look forward to the next update.

Re: All Access update is out
Thanks, Les. The app lets you type in a street address as your origin, and the default radius is 50 kilometers, which is over 30 miles, so that should cover most searches. Having said that, it probably wouldn't be too hard to add a button for the next 25 listings so I will try to do that.

Re: All Access update is out
Right now, it's a little complicated to enter a street address, but in the version awaiting Apple's approval, it's easier. You need to get to the Settings screen. Within the app, after you've started a search, touch the help button in the top right. It will display help, and two buttons. One is continue and the other is settings. Touch settings and you can change to a manually entered address instead of using GPS. In the next version, there is a Settings button on the first screen. Thanks!

Re: All Access update is out
Hi Todd, Okay, let me explain how I am accessing restaurants currently. I choose Search Nearby and scroll through the list. At the end of the list, I encounter Search All Near You with the prompt, double tap to edit. When I double tap, I am taken to the last restaurant in the list rather than to an edit field which is the expected behavior when one double taps on a field which states double tap will allow one to edit. Perhaps I'm in the wrong area for specifying a search, but it's the only option I see thus far. Thanks. Les On Jun 7, 2013, at 12:51 PM, Todd Bernhard toddbernh...@yahoo.com wrote: Thanks, Les.

Re: All Access update is out
Les, At the bottom of the list page is a horizontally scrolling menu that lets you refine by cuisine (or choose All) That is going away in the next version because it is becoming a source of confusion. Instead, when you initially choose Search Nearby, from the home screen, you will be presented with dozens of choices of cuisines like American, Bakery, Chinese, Coffee, Deli, etc., in alphabetical order. Choose one of those (or choose the All button) and then you will get your scrolling list. I will let you know when Apple approves it.

I know what street it's on, so if I can search by a specific street, I'd likely be able to locate the restaurant in question. If one could search within a certain radius as is often the case with GPS applications, that might be another way to attack this. Thanks for your efforts and I look forward to the next update.

My pleasure. The next update should be even easier to use. FYI, our database provider, Locu.com, is experiencing technical difficulties at the moment (9pm Eastern) so you might have no data when you search.

Re: All Access update is out
Hi Sieghard, and everyone. Thanks for announcing the update and saving me the trouble! I was going to do so this morning, so you're like my own public relations firm! Okay, Sieghard may be a special case and literally only have one restaurant nearby, at least according to our database. Remember, the old app showed businesses like spas, salons, etc., so now there are going to be less results. When there is exactly one match, it doesn't bother showing a list, but takes you directly to the info for that one business. From our emails, I know you live in a somewhat rural area in Canada. You can change your location using the Settings button from within the Help screen. We plan to make that Settings button a more prominent button on the opening screen. If you change your location to Vancouver for example, you might get to experience what the app has to offer in a more populated city. In fact, I just pretended to be in your city, and experienced what you did, then changed it to Vancouver and got a lot more results. Those hidden buttons are just redundant. People were complaining because they were text fields that displayed the name of the meal, etc., but that info is also provided with the photo button. Folks thought they could type in them, because they are text fields, but they were flagged as not editable. So we have hidden them from voiceover. But now it appears you could get a unlabeled button notice when you try to identify it. I am open to suggestions as to which direction to go. Perhaps we do not hide them but specifically say this is a non editable descriptor? I try to monitor this group, but the most reliable way to provide specific feedback to our team is using the feedback button on the home screen of the app. I will be at the Association for the Blind and Visually Impaired today in Rochester, NY getting first hand feedback, and plan to submit an update tonight based on that and your emails. Thanks! Thank you for your patience. I think you can tell we are trying to incorporate all your great feedback as quickly as possible, within the limitations of Apple's approval process. Also, next week my team and I are presenting the app to potential investors in New York City. With such an investment, we can keep enhancing the app, adding restaurants, porting it to Android, and take it to the next level. It's a free app and restaurants can be listed for free, so we need your support. Your positive reviews will go a long way to help.

Re: All Access update is out
Yes, yes, to all of this. I was just coming on here to ask how to find out what those unlabeled buttons are. I can only assume they have to do with adding something to an order, but considering those buttons are available elsewhere within individual descriptions as well as in every menu I've looked at since the update, some clarification would be helpful since activating them doesn't seem to make anything happen. I do like what I've seen so far, though. Chocolate is the answer... who cares what the question is! Lisa Belville missktlab1...@frontier.com - Original Message - From: Sieghard Weitzel siegh...@live.ca To: viphone@googlegroups.com Sent: Thursday, June 06, 2013 6:44 AM Subject: All Access update is out Hello List, Just noticed the the All Access Talking Menu update is out. The app does seem a bit more streamlined and interestingly enough when I went to Nearby it went straight into the listing for a restaurant here called Alpenhorn, I assume maybe because it's the first alphabetically. This restaurant didn't even show up before in the app, now it is there and has the Menu with descriptions and pricing. very nice. However, maybe Todd can answer this, after each menu category as well as after each dish within the categories there are anywhere from 1 to 3 unlabelled buttons which don't seem to do anything, I assume maybe they are pictures and, if so, couldn't they be hidden to make swiping through the dishes a better experience? Also, it would be nice if that z-gesture for activating the back button could be implemented. I find it more intuitive and faster than to find the back button at the top left each time and use it a lot in apps where it works. Lastly, how do I get back to the listing of restaurants? I am placed straight into the listing for Alpenhorn when I tap on Nearby. I am on the main screen with the following layout: Top Row: Back button at the top left Alpenhorn Bistro and Bar button in the middle Help button at the top right Under Back is the Menu button and it is the first swipe right from Help. Under Help is the Map button and it is next if you swipe right again after menu. Underneath Menu (on the left side) is Phone and it comes after Map if you continue swiping. Under Map (on the right side) is a Web, button, once again, it's another swipe right after phone. Last is the Weather button and I seem to only get to it by swiping right one more time from Web, if I move my finger around the screen to explore I can only find Menu and Phone on the left and Map and Web on the right. OK, so I just did a 3-finger swipe up and Voiceover said Page 2 of 3 and now the Weather button was there right under Back which means the other 4 buttons on page 1 were now off the screen. There is a page 3 of 3, but it still only has Weather. All in all, it's much easier and faster to swipe to the button you want since there are only 5 and, I guess in cases where there is no menu, there would only be Map, Phone, Web and Weather. If I double tap on Back from the main screen of the Alpenhorn Bistro and Bar I get Back at the top left, Results in the middle and Help at the top right. However, the rest of the screen is blank, i.e. Voiceover says Empty List which is strange since it did go straight into the one restaurant and in the last app there were quite a few listings for my town. A 3-finger swipe down says Refreshing Content, but still nothing shows up in the list. Across the bottom I see 4 categories, Select All, Select American, Select Bakery and Select Bar/Pub/Brewery. A 3-finger swipe from right to left tells me it is now on page 2 of 7 and 4 new categories show up: Select Bbq, Select Select Chinese, Select Coffee/Tea and Select Deli/Sandwiches. If I double tap on Select All it goes right back into Alpenhorn Bistro and Bar and I seem to be unable to see or select any other restaurants. In fact, when I first double tap on Nearby on the main screen of the app and touch the screen in the middle it says Accessing All, but once again, the list is empty and it goes straight into Alpenhorn Bistro and Bar. OK, Todd, how much is Sascha, the owner of the Alpenhorn paying you for doing this *smile*. There is also a Search for Business by Type button on the main screen, but it does the same thing, it goes straight into Alpenhorn Bistro and Bar. It would be interesting to find out if others experience the same thing, i.e. if it goes into an A listing for where they live with nothing else on the list. I know Todd monitors the list, so I look forward to any comments as well as reviews from other users.

Re: All Access update is out
Hi, Todd. Wow, I love your prompt replies. grin actually, in my case, I didn't try labeling the buttons, they just show up between each product in sets of two. These are buttons I need to physically flick past in order to move to the next product. For example, there will be a button listing the name of a sandwich, and then the two mystery buttons and then another button for the next sandwich.

Re: All Access update is out
Hi Todd and Lisa, Lisa, I can confirm what you see. I find the buttons in Paris as well. I also have been able to access the back button pretty easily as I am accustomed to Friday the back button on the upper left side of the screen. Overall, this is greatly improved. I really look forward to using it. I use a nearby search and found a number of restaurants in the Albany area.

Re: All Access update is out
Lisa, Thanks. Yes, those mystery buttons display the text of the item. So if you had a sandwich called Peanut Butter And Jelly, there would be a big photo button that would show a photo of that sandwich, and below it one, two, or three text lines in a text view depending on the length of the sandwich name. Those display the words Peanut, Butter, and Jelly. The complaint before was that people thought they could type in those fields since they contain text. You cannot. They are for display only. I tagged them as hidden from voiceover, so when you explicitly touch them, nothing happens. However, it appears that if you are flicking, you still have to flick past them. I plan to fix that next. What is your suggestion? Should I add them back so they are not hidden, but have them announced as display only text field? Thanks!

Re: All Access update is out
Well, I'm obviously speaking for myself as a new user, so my ideas may not be the same as others who have dealt with VO for a while and are more comfortable. My preference is for whatever is more efficient at conveying the information or lack of info in this case. I'm used to unlabled buttons and strangely uneditable fields in windows, and I know how to either move past those or avoid them altogether. I'm still not 100% up to speed doing this with VO. So I'd want an effective but brief description of the field/button that can be either bypassed or dismissed without too many gestures. I don't recall whether each of those unlabled buttons was originally it's own individual field or if they were combined into one, but I'd personally want to accomplish the task with a minimum of flicking or swiping. Just me, though. You'll probably get a variety of answers. Lisa Chocolate is the answer... who cares what the question is!

Re: All Access update is out
Todd, One suggestion I would like to give is that each menu item/meal be set as a heading. this would then enable users to flick down heading by heading or meal by meal. This would enable users to bypass the unlabeled objects that are being discussed. thanks. Dan Beaver -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the VIPhone Google Group.

Dan, if you go to the help screen you may be able to find the settings button. It is about halfway down and just slightly right of the middle of the screen.

Re: All Access update is out
Perhaps read only text field? On the other hand, if the text within is read would there be a need then or just hide if it is not being read? - Original Message - From: Todd Bernhard To: viphone@googlegroups.com Sent: Thursday, June 06, 2013 5:58 AM Subject: Re: All Access update is out Lisa, Thanks. Yes, those mystery buttons display the text of the item. So if you had a sandwich called Peanut Butter And Jelly, there would be a big photo button that would show a photo of that sandwich, and below it one, two, or three text lines in a text view depending on the length of the sandwich name. Those display the words Peanut, Butter, and Jelly. The complaint before was that people thought they could type in those fields since they contain text. You cannot. They are for display only. I tagged them as hidden from voiceover, so when you explicitly touch them, nothing happens. However, it appears that if you are flicking, you still have to flick past them. I plan to fix that next. What is your suggestion? Should I add them back so they are not hidden, but have them announced as display only text field? Thanks!

RE: All Access update is out
Hi Mich, You may have seen Todd's reply to my email since for me only 1 restaurant comes up. Smithers, where I live here in northern BC has a similar population, a bit larger with 6,000 people. If nothing shows up it simply means none of the restaurants have added their menus to Locu.com so maybe you can try and talk to the owners to see if they are willing to do so then it should show up for you.

It's easy to detect if voiceover is running, and if so, not display the text, but the text is useful if you have low vision and still use voiceover. I'll keep at it. Thanks!

I think this might be possible. Regards, Sieghard -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the VIPhone Google Group.

Re: All Access update is out
Sieghard is right, but I've discovered a bit more info. Many of those restaurants are indeed already in the Locu database, but they simply haven't been classified as to what type of cuisine, or in some cases, whether they are a restaurant at all. For example a hotel/lodge could have a restaurant. That's why Sieghard saw several results previously and not so many now. So, I am introducing a cuisine page before the search listings, so you can narrow the results. This was always possible but the existing app uses a small horizontal scrolling bar at the bottom. It is tricky to do a three finger swipe on. This method will be much easier with voiceover. One of the buttons on this page will be for All businesses. It will return all restaurants, but also all spas, etc., that Locu knows about. I think it is the best compromise. All results will be returned but you'll have the option to narrow them as long as the database has that info. In the meantime, it's worth asking favorite restaurants to register with Locu, especially if they already have their info but just need to update the cuisine type. And it's free for restaurants to be listed! Thanks everyone! I'll submit an update tonight.

Re: All Access update is out
I am looking for AllAccessMenus in the app store and can not find it. Any help? Kay Malmquist kay.malmqu...@gmail.com - Original Message - From: Todd Bernhard To: viphone@googlegroups.com Cc: siegh...@live.ca Sent: Thursday, June 06, 2013 7:19 AM Subject: Re: All Access update is out Hi Sieghard, and everyone. Thanks for announcing the update and saving me the trouble! I was going to do so this morning, so you're like my own public relations firm! Okay, Sieghard may be a special case and literally only have one restaurant nearby, at least according to our database. Remember, the old app showed businesses like spas, salons, etc., so now there are going to be less results. When there is exactly one match, it doesn't bother showing a list, but takes you directly to the info for that one business. From our emails, I know you live in a somewhat rural area in Canada. You can change your location using the Settings button from within the Help screen. We plan to make that Settings button a more prominent button on the opening screen. If you change your location to Vancouver for example, you might get to experience what the app has to offer in a more populated city. In fact, I just pretended to be in your city, and experienced what you did, then changed it to Vancouver and got a lot more results. Those hidden buttons are just redundant. People were complaining because they were text fields that displayed the name of the meal, etc., but that info is also provided with the photo button. Folks thought they could type in them, because they are text fields, but they were flagged as not editable. So we have hidden them from voiceover. But now it appears you could get a unlabeled button notice when you try to identify it. I am open to suggestions as to which direction to go. Perhaps we do not hide them but specifically say this is a non editable descriptor? I try to monitor this group, but the most reliable way to provide specific feedback to our team is using the feedback button on the home screen of the app. I will be at the Association for the Blind and Visually Impaired today in Rochester, NY getting first hand feedback, and plan to submit an update tonight based on that and your emails. Thanks! Thank you for your patience. I think you can tell we are trying to incorporate all your great feedback as quickly as possible, within the limitations of Apple's approval process. Also, next week my team and I are presenting the app to potential investors in New York City. With such an investment, we can keep enhancing the app, adding restaurants, porting it to Android, and take it to the next level. It's a free app and restaurants can be listed for free, so we need your support. Your positive reviews will go a long way to help. There is a review button on the front page of the app so thank you in advance. ---Todd t...@allaccessmenus.com -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the VIPhone Google Group.
