 Hi all,
 
 I am writing this to you with mBraille. The direct touch stuff is slowly 
 going away with the new version of iOS. That is all I can say now as to 
 not violate the disclosure agreement.

yes, it's still very baffling how direct touch works. Anyway, thanks for your

RE: direct touch area.

2021-01-24 Thread Richard Turner
I’m glad you think that, but it happens with apps that do not have their own 
TTS which is why Apple has changed things in 14.4 so it doesn’t break apps 
while using VoiceOver.
It will still say, Direct Touch Area, but you can just go on and do whatever 
you normally do.

Re: direct touch area.

2021-01-24 Thread Sherrie Gosling
I have only had experience with the direct touch area on my blindfold games 
solitaire. I could start the game but if I was interrupted by a phone call or 
notification or anything the game would stop working. Closing the game and the 
app switcher and restarting did no good. Only restarting the whole phone. Then 
I realized the game is self voicing so I could turn off voiceover when it was 
having a direct touch problem and it worked. Just a workaround for the games 
until the direct touch is gone!

Good, I hope it is going away. I use my phone and tablet to watch TV with the 
AT app and direct touch area has made it very difficult for me to navigate. 
I’m looking forward to it no longer being available. I did call Apple about
