Re: Screen recognition makes all the difference with chakra tuning app

2024-04-16 Thread Mike Arrigo
There are definitely times when screen recognition can be useful, I recently 
got another robot vacuum and the app is pretty much totally inaccessible 
without using screen recognition. While it’s good that Voiceover offers this 
feature, this is something that should not be necessary. Developers should fix 
the accessibility issues with their apps. I have emailed the company that makes 
the robot vacuum that I purchased and told them about this issue but I will not 
buy any more of their products unless they fix their app. Can I use it with 
screen recognition? Yes, but I shouldn’t have to.

Screen recognition makes all the difference with chakra tuning app

2024-04-16 Thread Anna Dresner
Hi everyone,

Screen recognition can be super annoying when it gets turned on by accident in 
a normally accessible app. But I just downloaded an app called Chakra tuner 
that is completely inaccessible with it off, but in which I can do everything I 
want when it's on. The app plays sounds for each chakra that you can sing along 
with. You can tone one chakra or all seven, either starting with the highest or 
the lowest. You can have guidance explaining which vowel sound to sing along 
with each chakra or not. I didn't try the single chakra sounds, but I tried 
both ascending and ascending, with and without guidance, and I was able to make 
selections and use the app. So if you encounter an inaccessible app, try 
turning on screen recognition. It might not help at all, but it might be 
exactly what you need in order to use the app.

Best,
Anna
