Hi,

Well it's now on all 3 of my devices 2 public release one which has beta 
profile. All now say #iOS13.5 and I still have the on going issue of #VoiceOver 
not speaking the name of the contact which populates the to field when 
composing a new message. How terribly disappointing.

  Apple Releases iOS 13.5 and iPadOS 13.5 With Exposure Notification API and 
Face Mask Detection for Face ID
  Submitted by AppleVis on 20 May, 2020



  Apple has today released iOS 13.5 and iPadOS 13.5 to the public, with 
Exposure Notification API, faster Face ID unlocking when wearing a face mask, a 
new option to automatically share selected health data with emergency services, 
and more.

  Bug Fixes for Blind and Low Vision Users in iOS 13.5 and iPadOS 13.5
  Our testing suggests that the following pre-existing accessibility bugs have 
been resolved in iOS 13.5 and iPadOS 13.5:

  ·Temporary banners now 
correctly disappear after a few seconds.

  ·VoiceOver no longer wrongly 
reports some blocks of text as being editable text fields.

  ·Apple appears to have made 
some improvements to the bug which prevented websites from inverting colors 
when both Dark Mode and Smart Invert are enabled. Our testing suggests that 
there are still instances when websites will not invert.

  At the time of writing, we are unaware of any new bugs for blind or low 
vision users in today's releases. However, as we always stress, we can make no 
claims on the completeness or accuracy of our testing. We are only a small 
team, and it is simply impossible for us to test all devices, configurations, 
applications, and use cases. Accordingly, to help us ensure that the 
information on this page is as complete and accurate as possible, please let us 
know in the comments of any fixes; enhancements; or regressions that you find 
in your own use of iOS 13.5 or iPadOS 13.5.

  General Changes in iOS 13.5 and iPadOS 13.5
  ·iOS 13.5 and iPadOS 13.5 
include Apple and Google’s new Exposure Notification API for COVID-19 contact 
tracing: Take a first look at Apple and Google's ambitious new COVID-19 contact 
tracing technology that will send you a notification if you were near someone 
who has the coronavirus

  ·Face ID can now detect if 
you’re wearing a mask and skip directly to the passcode screen if so: Apple 
wants to make Face ID work better with your face mask. Here's what we know

  ·You can now opt to have 
selected information from the Health app automatically shared with emergency 
services when making an emergency call: New iPhone iOS 13.5 update could save 
your life — here's how

  ·There is a new setting in the 
FaceTime app that allows you to disable the automatic enlargement of the active 
speaker's video window: Busy Group FaceTime call? iOS 13.5 lets you turn off 
automatic face zooming

  ·A new option is available to 
share songs, albums, and playlists to Facebook and Instagram Stories: HOW TO 
Share Apple Music Songs in Your Instagram & Facebook Stories

  According to MacRumors, iOS 13.5 and iPadOS 13.5 also patch two security 
vulnerabilities that affect the Mail app on the ‌iPhone‌ and the ‌iPad‌:

  One vulnerability allowed an attacker to remotely infect an iOS device by 
sending emails that consume a significant amount of memory, while another 
allowed remote code executions.

  Release Notes
  Apple's full release notes for iOS 13.5 are as follows:

  iOS 13.5 speeds up access to the passcode field on devices with Face ID when 
you are wearing a face mask and introduces the Exposure Notification API to 
support COVID-19 contact tracing apps from public health authorities. This 
update also introduces an option to control automatic prominence of video tiles 
on Group FaceTime calls and includes bug fixes and other improvements.

  Note that iOS 13.5 and iPadOS 13.5 were initially released as iOS 13.4.5 beta 
and iPadOS 13.4.5 beta, but when the Exposure Notifications API was announced, 
an SDK update was required, which meant that the version numbers also had to be 
updated.

  How to update
  iOS 13.5 and iPadOS 13.5 are available via Over-the-Air Update (Settings > 
General > Software Update) via Finder on a Mac with macOS Catalina, or via 
iTunes on a PC or Mac with macOS Mojave or earlier.

  Before updating, we strongly recommend making a full and complete backup of 
your device (either locally or in iCloud, depending on personal preference). 
This will ensure that, in the unlikely event that something goes wrong during 
the update process, you will have a current backup on hand in case a device 
restore becomes necessary. Also, if

One item that was not mentioned in the AppleVis post, but was in the
comments. The bug of not being able to sue Braille Screen Input to
enter your passcode on the lock screen has been fixed. I noticed this
in one of the recent updates, either 13.4 or 13.4.1. I'm very glad
that was fixed, since I often find it easier to enter my code with BSI
than using the keypad. Not to say I can't use the keypad, but BSI
makes it so much faster.

Be well,

Hi,
Well it's now on all 3 of my devices
2 public release one which has beta profile. All now say
#iOS13.5 and I still have the on going issue of #VoiceOver not
speaking the name of the contact which populates the to field
when composing a new message. How terribly disappointing.

Apple Releases iOS 13.5 and iPadOS
13.5 With Exposure Notification API and Face Mask Detection
for Face ID
Submitted
by AppleVis on 20 May, 2020

Apple
has today released iOS 13.5 and iPadOS 13.5 to the public,
with Exposure Notification API, faster Face ID unlocking
when wearing a face mask, a new option to automatically
share selected health data with emergency services, and
more.
Bug
Fixes for Blind and Low Vision Users in iOS 13.5 and iPadOS
13.5
Our
testing suggests that the following pre-existing
accessibility bugs have been resolved in iOS 13.5 and iPadOS
13.5:

  ·   
  Temporary
banners now correctly disappear after a few seconds.

  ·   
  VoiceOver
no longer wrongly reports some blocks of text as being
editable text fields.

  ·   
  Apple
appears to have made some improvements to the bug
which prevented websites from inverting colors when both
Dark Mode and Smart Invert are enabled. Our
testing suggests that there are still instances when
websites will not invert.
At
the time of writing, we are unaware of any new bugs for
blind or low vision users in today's releases. However, as
we always stress, we can make no claims on the completeness
or accuracy of our testing. We are only a small team, and it
is simply impossible for us to test all devices,
configurations, applications, and use cases. Accordingly, to
help us ensure that the information on this page is as
complete and accurate as possible, please let us know in the
comments of any fixes; enhancements; or regressions that you
find in your own use of iOS 13.5 or iPadOS 13.5.
