 Subject: Re: LookTel VO Tutorial
 
 Grant and All, thanks very much for your feedback.
 
 Let me mention two things.
 
 . Firstly, if you find that VO misses numbers, you may need to turn the
 rotor a bit slower. There is a delay between when you hear the sound for
 each number and when VO actually speaks it.
 
 . Secondly, If VO's focus moves to the two buttons at the top of the
 screen
 the rotor functionality will switch back to its usual features. This is
 what
 is supposed to happen. If this does happen, simply touch the screen again
 near the middle, with a finger and you'll be good to go!
 
 Are you having any issue hearing the sound which signals you to flick up
 or
 down on the correct number? The AppleVis podcaster was having an issue but
 I
 was able to hear it fine. So I'm wondering if this is something we'll
 need
 to change in the next update so people can more easily hear this sound?
 -Thoughts?
 
 Thanks to everyone so far for your awesome and helpful feedback! You
 rock!
 
 Smiles,
 
 Cara :)

 VoiceOver rarely announced the numbers as I spun the lock, but usually a
 small sound played indicating that my gesture worked. Often times though,
 VoiceOver simply loses its focus and when I spin the dial it begins
 turning

Re: LookTel VO Tutorial

2013-03-06 Thread Paul Ferrara
All, I hear lots of sounds I can't describe during the safe game; does this 
mean I am turning the dial too quickly. It sounds like machine gun type as 
far as how fast they are sounding but few numbers and no coinflips.  Please 
advise.

Hi Mickey,

Each of the louder click sounds does represent a number. There are the 
metallic sounds as you turn the virtual dial and there are louder click 
sounds when you come to each number.


The gentle bell-like tone is mixed in with the louder click when you come to 
the number that you are to enter into the lock. When you hear this bell-like 
tone, (it's actually a coin flip) you flick up or down to enter that number.


Hope this helps!

Smiles,

Cara :)

Hi Paul, I can help you better if you give just a bit more detail. :)

Are you doing the gesture that the game's welcome screen describes? Are you 
using two fingers on the same hand or using a finger on separate hands? this 
can also work to perform the gesture you'll need.

I'd suggest from your note, that yes, you do try doing the gesture more slowly 
but if I'm not understanding you , then please do send along more details when 
you can, K?

thanks and hope the game works well for you!

Hi Mickey,

Each of the louder click sounds does represent a number. There are the 
metallic sounds as you turn the virtual dial and there are louder click 
sounds when you come to each number.


The gentle bell-like tone is mixed in with the louder click when you come to 
the number that you are to enter into the lock. When you hear this bell-like 
tone, (it's actually a coin flip) you flick up or down to enter that number.


Hope this helps!

Grant and All, thanks very much for your feedback.

Let me mention two things.

. Firstly, if you find that VO misses numbers, you may need to turn the
rotor a bit slower. There is a delay between when you hear the sound for
each number and when VO actually speaks it.

. Secondly, If VO's focus moves to the two buttons at the top of the 
screen
the rotor functionality will switch back to its usual features. This is 
what

is supposed to happen. If this does happen, simply touch the screen again
near the middle, with a finger and you'll be good to go!

Are you having any issue hearing the sound which signals you to flick up 
or
down on the correct number? The AppleVis podcaster was having an issue but 
I

was able to hear it fine. So I'm wondering if this is something we'll need
to change in the next update so people can more easily hear this sound?
-Thoughts?

Thanks to everyone so far for your awesome and helpful feedback! You rock!

Smiles,

Cara :)

Hi Paul, try placing two fingers on the same hand on the screen, and instead of 
keeping one finger still and rotating the other around it, try simply turning 
your hand as if you are turning a knob.

Let me know how this goes, K?

Hi Paul, I can help you better if you give just a bit more detail. :)

Are you doing the gesture that the game's welcome screen describes? Are you 
using two fingers on the same hand or using a finger on separate hands? this 
can also work to perform the gesture you'll need.

I'd suggest from your note, that yes, you do try doing the gesture more slowly 
but if I'm not understanding you , then please do send along more details when 
you can, K?

thanks and hope the game works well for you!

  Grant and All, thanks very much for your feedback.
 
  Let me mention two things.
 
  . Firstly, if you find that VO misses numbers, you may need to turn the
  rotor a bit slower. There is a delay between when you hear the sound for
  each number and when VO actually speaks it.

  the rotor functionality will switch back to its usual features. This is

  Are you having any issue hearing the sound which signals you to flick up

On Mar 2, 2013, at 1:29 PM, Cara Quinn caraqu...@caraquinn.com wrote:

 Well, since I haven't seen this one chatted about here on the list, here goes…
 
 LookTel has just released, this week, a free app called Voiceover Tutorial. 
 (VO Tutorial)
 
 It is a basic tutorial app for new iPhone / iPod users (soon to be on iPad) 
 which teaches all of the necessary gestures so a user can then more easily 
 navigate / investigate their device by themselves.
 
 The app also has two games in it. Basketball and Safe.
 
 Basketball allows the player to dribble the ball by flicking down and 
 shooting by flicking up. The more you dribble the ball, the more likely you 
 are to make a basket. This is meant to show the player the flick up / down 
 gestures.
 
 This then leads to the Safe game, where the player places two fingers on the 
 screen and turns their hand as if to turn a large knob. Voiceover announces 
 numbers as the Safe's virtual dial turns and a sound is played at a 
 particular number. The player then needs to flick up or down to enter that 
 number into the combination lock.
 
 Once you enter three numbers successfully, the Safe opens.
 
 So, as you might guess, this teaches the rotor gesture… :)
 
 Rather than only being for beginning iOS users, all iPhone / iPod users might 
 like this app just to have the games on their devices as quick lil' time 
 wasters. :)
 
 We'll be updating this app extensively, and I've already got another game 
 written to add. We'll eventually cover all Voiceover gestures and will have a 
 directory-like system so a customer can immediately go straight to a lesson 
 or game of their choice.
 
 Enjoy! Here's the linkie!

   Hi:
This is a most creative tutorial.  I am glad to see this approach.

I am an instructor and will be using this as a way to make people comfortable 
with voiceOver's gestures.

One comment:  The first time you present the split tap feature, you may want to 
exclude the double tap feature so that the student needs to use the  gesture 
you are trying to have them use.

 numbers as the Safe's virtual dial turns and a sound is played at a
 particular number. The player then needs to flick up or down to enter that
 number into the combination lock.

 Once you enter three numbers successfully, the Safe opens.

 So, as you might guess, this teaches the rotor gesture… :)

 Rather than only being for beginning iOS users, all iPhone / iPod users
 might like this app just to have the games on their devices as quick lil'
 time wasters. :)

 We'll be updating this app extensively, and I've already got another game
 written to add. We'll eventually cover all Voiceover gestures and will have
 a directory-like system so a customer can immediately go straight to a
 lesson or game of their choice.

 Enjoy! Here's the linkie!

RE: LookTel VO Tutorial

2013-03-02 Thread Richard Turner
I just stumbled upon it when looking for BreadCrumbs and as an instructor of
iDevices, I must say I am impressed.

As a first start, it is excellent!

I'm looking forward to the rest of the lessons/gestures and games.

I'll be informing my clients and other teachers of this great tutorial.

 

I'll also be looking forward to the breadcrumbs app when it comes out.  

 

Looktel has been producing some great apps and I have no doubt they will
continue to be excellent.

Re: LookTel VO Tutorial

2013-03-02 Thread Grant Hardy
Hi Cara,

What a terrific idea! I am certain this will benefit a lot of new
users of VoiceOver. I had a play with it and mostly it is fun and easy
to get the hang of. I will say though that the second, combination
lock game seems quite buggy at least on my particular iPhone 5.
VoiceOver rarely announced the numbers as I spun the lock, but usually
a small sound played indicating that my gesture worked. Often times
though, VoiceOver simply loses its focus and when I spin the dial it
begins turning the rotor from lines to words etc. as it would normally
do when not in an an app with custom gestures. The result is I have
not been able as of yet to win the second game, and I am an
experienced VoiceOver year of three years. :)

Try turning the rotor very slowly.
I had the words, characters, etc., the first try, then I just tapped the
screen and it worked fine after that.

Hi Cara,

What a terrific idea! I am certain this will benefit a lot of new
users of VoiceOver. I had a play with it and mostly it is fun and easy
to get the hang of. I will say though that the second, combination
lock game seems quite buggy at least on my particular iPhone 5.
VoiceOver rarely announced the numbers as I spun the lock, but usually
a small sound played indicating that my gesture worked. Often times
though, VoiceOver simply loses its focus and when I spin the dial it
begins turning the rotor from lines to words etc. as it would normally
do when not in an an app with custom gestures. The result is I have
not been able as of yet to win the second game, and I am an
experienced VoiceOver year of three years. :)

Cheers,

Grant
