Hello Kayden,

I can't control 7 Little Words from the braille display. However, whatever the 
app says appears on the braille display as a flash message. So if I set flash 
messages for 3 seconds, I can see the clues and groups of letters on the 
display with one hand while controlling the app from the touchscreen with the 
other.

HTH,

If Direct Touch is actually on, when the 7 Little Words app is opened voiceover 
will speak "Direct Touch On." Voiceover will not say anything just by touching 
the screen. If Direct Touch is Not turned on there will not be any response 
from voiceoverwhen touching, tapping or swiping.

The game 7 Little Words is accessible. My 
thought is, the gestures to play the game is

finger flick switches from words & characters. 
A 2 finger swipe from left to right reads the 
clues by letter or word. Swiping in the 
opposite direction the clues will be 
spelled/spoken in reverse. A 1 finger swipe 
left to right moves down by line. Swiping right 
to left moves up by line. A 1 finger swipe down 
jumps from the clues section to the letter 
tiles section & a 1 finger swipe up moves from 
the letter tiles to the clues section. I hope 
these instructions helps you to be able to

Alex,



The game 7 Little Words is accessible. My thought is, the gestures to play the 
game is different from the voiceover gestures. A 3 finger flick switches from 
words & characters. A 2 finger swipe from left to right reads the clues by 
letter or word. Swiping in the opposite direction the clues will be 
spelled/spoken in reverse. A 1 finger swipe left to right moves down by line. 
Swiping right to left moves up by line. A 1 finger swipe down jumps from the 
clues section to the letter tiles section & a 1 finger swipe up moves from the 
letter tiles to the clues section. I hope these instructions helps you to be 
able to play. The game structure was changed 2+ years ago because coding the 
game for Android is easier than APple, So the game developer just has to do a 
minor tweak in order for the game to work on the Apple platform & voiceover 
users making use of the Direct Touch feature.

I think you are right in that you do need to turn the rota to "describe images" 
to make it accessible.

Hi. I play 7 Little Words every day on my iPhone 11 enjoy it very much. The 
first time you open the app, turn the rotor to Described Images, and select On. 
After that, each time you play the game, Described Images will be turned on 
automatically while you play the game. Go to the rotor settings under 
Accessibility and make sure Direct Touch is selected in your rotor settings. I 
hope this makes sense. 

Thanks.

words & characters. A 2 finger swipe from left to right reads the clues by 
letter or word. Swiping in the opposite direction the clues will be 
spelled/spoken in reverse. A 1 finger swipe left to right moves down by line. 
Swiping right to left moves up by line. A 1 finger swipe down jumps from the 
clues section to the letter tiles section & a 1 finger swipe up moves from the 
letter tiles to the clues section. I hope these instructions helps you to be 
able to play. The game structure was changed 2+ years ago because coding the 
game for Android is easier than APple, So the game developer just has to do a 
minor tweak in order for the game to work on the Apple platform & voiceover 
users making use of the Direct Touch feature.

Hello. I have been trying to play Seven Little Words. When I open the app the 
rotor will not turn so that I can enable direct touch. Has anybody had this

Re: Seven Little words.

2024-04-17 Thread Anna Dresner
Hi,

A one-finger flick left or right moves to the next or previous puzzle or clue. 
It does take a couple of seconds after you open it for the puzzles to be 
available. It may take longer if you haven't played in a while.

Best,
Anna

RE: Seven Little words.

2024-04-17 Thread Paula Jordan
I no longer play 7 little words because it’s clunky and hard for me, but I play 
a game called zannograms.  Not sure about the spelling.  The basic game is free 
and includes 2 puzzle packs.  Additional puzzle packs are around 99 cents from 
the app store and you can also purchase hints.  I believe the game is designed 
by someone who is visually impaired, so it’s completely easily accessible. 

I love it.

God bless!

Re: Seven Little words.

2024-04-17 Thread Judy Holloway
Hi. I play 7 Little Words every day on my iPhone 11 enjoy it very much. The 
first time you open the app, turn the rotor to Described Images, and select On. 
After that, each time you play the game, Described Images will be turned on 
automatically while you play the game. Go to the rotor settings under 
Accessibility and make sure Direct Touch is selected in your rotor settings. I 
hope this makes sense. 

Thanks.

Re: Seven Little words.

2024-04-16 Thread Anna Dresner
Hi everyone,

I play 7 Little Words just about every day. It's completely accessible. I even 
use it with a braille display. It uses flash messages, so you have to turn the 
display time to a longer setting than you might ordinarly use, but otherwise, 
it works really well. Flick through the clues or the groups of letters, and 
flick up or down once to move between the clues, the line with the clue and 
other buttons, the spelling of the current word, and the letters.

Best,
Anna

Re: back to seven little words

2021-11-22 Thread Donna Casteen
Hi Paula, Unfortunately, your problem is one that I can not assist you with. It 
seems from talking to other 7 Little Word players who use a braille display, 
trouble playing is common. Here is a link to the developer's email address. I 
hope that they are able to assist you with game play. Or at least, have a fix 
to the on going braille display problem in a soon to come game update.

Re: back to seven little words

2021-11-22 Thread Anna Dresner
Hi Paula,

The output from 7 Little Words appears on the braille display as an alert 
message. If you set Braille Alert Messages to a fairly long time, such as 3 
seconds, the messages stay on the display long enough to read the clues and 
collections of letters. I sometimes have to double-tap a choice a couple of 
times to enter it, but it works eventually.

I hope that helps.

best,
Anna

I'm continuing to play 7 little words although it's almost more frustration

Hint for playing latest version of seven little words

2021-10-12 Thread Sherrie Gosling
At first I was a bit frustrated trying to play the latest version of seven 
little words. I practically had to pound on the screen to make it register 
which tile I wanted.  I wrote about this problem to the company and got a reply 
back that said they were working on it but it seemed the first tap highlighted 
the tile and messed up the double tapso I started trying a single finger triple 
tap and it works great!  When in the clues section the triple tap still changes 
from Characters two words when using the two finger swipe rightbut just about 
every other place a triple tap with regular amount of pressure does the trick.
I also discovered that if you wait for the word button to be spoken and then 
immediately double tap it works some of the time. But the triple tap is much 
more dependable.
I do love being able to swipe from section to section.

Seven Words which gives you seven clues and a whole load of letters to sort out 
that is the only one I can think off Take care and stay safe because you really 
don't want the virus.  I hope they fix the Braille as it is in a mess as well.

Re: new Seven Little Words

2021-09-28 Thread Anna Dresner
Hi,

The version that came out on friday is pretty responsive on my second 
generation SE and does provide braille if Braille Alert Time is high enough. I 
have it set to 3 seconds, which is long enough to show the words and clues, but 
you can make it longer if necessary. I like it that the focus stays in the 
letters when I add a title or complete a word. If I were using it without 
speech, I would have to press Space with N to review recent VoiceOver messages, 
which would be annoying, but the game is definitely playable with speech and 
supplemental braille.

Best,
Anna

By the way, two friends and I did the same thing Because we didn’t

If you have purchased any puzzle packs you will need to restore

* swipe right and left to advance through the screen elements as before, but 
now you can swipe down and up to jump between the major screen sections (back 
button, clues, answer/spelling, tiles)

* use a two finger tap to switch between reading by word or letter and two 
finger swipe to advance through each clue

* when you select a tile as part of an answer, you remain in the tile section, 
which should reduce the number of swipes you need

To note, the two-finger tap to switch the reading by word or letter will be 
switched to a three-finger tap in the next build as it sometimes caused 
confusion with the two-finger swipe.

We have hired a blind accessibility contractor to help us make it as accessible 
as possible but we greatly appreciate your feedback on how we can do this 
better. Your feedback on the click noise for each move is something I will get 
addressed in a forthcoming build, so that if you decide to turn off the "sound 
effects" in the game, it will turn off this clicking sound as you swipe through 
the board.

Please let us know if this is helpful and again appreciate any additional 
feedback you might have.

Hi Donna,

 

It turns out that the SE 2020 with iOS 15 does have screen recognition. I 
actually ended up using it to get my speech back on in the game after I had 
stupidly turned it off. That was interesting! However, after that I turned off 
the clicks, and the game really became unplayable. Everything I double tapped 
wouldn’t activate. In the end I did have to delete the app and download it 
again.

 

Take care and stay safe!

Janet,

 

If Direct Touch is not on when playing 7 Little Words the game will not work at 
all. No, an iPhone Se 20 does not have screen recognition, which in this case 
is a good thing, being having screen recognition on would make the game 
unplayable. I can't recall- Did I send you a list of gestures used to play 7 
Little words? If not, let me know & I'll send them to you. It may be best to 
delete the game & redownload so that the proper settings are in place when you 
open the app.

Hi Donna, would an SE20 have voice recognition on it as I can't find it 
anywhere.  I did as you suggested and still can't get rid of direct touch but 
there  you go.  Janet

Hi,

 

Assuming that Direct Touch is still on per my previous instructions: Close 7 
Little Words from the app switcher, then reopen it. Voiceover should now be 
back on. Use one finger & swipe down to settings & tap to open. Swipe down to 
sound & use one finger & double tap to turn off the sounds. Make sure that you 
are using three fingers & taping only once. Wait a couple seconds between taps 
to toggle between words or characters. Without waiting the tap may be confused 
with the three finger double tap which toggles voiceover speech on & off.

Hi Donna,

 

I am wondering what phone and which iOS version you are using. I really liked 
your solution for when someone accidentally turned off speech in 7 Little 
Words, however, on my iPhone SE 202 running iOS 14.8 and 15 it didn’t work. I 
was sillily adventurous, and I turned off speech in the game. Then I went to 
the app switcher, and while on 7 Little Words I turned the rotor to “direct 
touch” and turned it on. It didn’t restore speech to the game. Unless there is 
something I did wrong, I will have to delete the app and download it again.

 

I did have the most recent update working, and I am getting used to it. 
However, I sure wish you could turn off the infernal clicking. Right now that 
toggle still isn’t working. I am going to write to the developer about that.

 

Thanks for your help!

 

Take care and stay safe!

the Braille alert Message time to 3 seconds. I can't use the display to control 
the game, but I can flick with one hand and read with my other hand on the 
display. The word eye is displayed when the letter i is spoken in a clue, but 
otherwise, it seems to work. It's pretty responsive, and I like being able to 
do a single finger flick up or down to move between the sections of the game. 
I'm so happy that this is playable again!

 

Best,

Anna

Hi Janet,

Yes, the second generation SE has screen recognition. Unless you've changed 
Quick SEttings, an easy way to find it and turn it off for 7 Little Words if 
it's on is to open 7 Little Words and do a two-finger quadruple-tap. Find 
screen rEcognition, and turn it off.

HTH,
Anna

Janet,

If Direct Touch is not on when playing 7 Little Words the game will not work at 
all. No, an iPhone Se 20 does not have screen recognition, which in this case 
is a good thing, being having screen recognition on would make the game 
unplayable. I can't recall- Did I send you a list of gestures used to play 7 
Little words? If not, let me know & I'll send them to you. It may be best to 
delete the game & redownload so that the proper settings are in place when you 
open the app.

Re: new Seven Little Words

2021-09-27 Thread Janet Bell

Janet, Direct Touch has to be turned on in order for the game to work.
The new 7 Little Words uses only 5 gestures. With that said; Forget 
about the old gestures & lets focus on the new gestures.
* A one finger double tap is used to select the puzzle that you want to 
play & to select the letter combinations to form the words to the clues.
* A one finger swipe from left to right moves you down the page one line 
with each swipe. A swipe from right to left moves you up the page one 
line with each swipe.
* A one finger flick down moves you through the three areas of the game. 
At the top left is the Back Button, flick down once & you are in the 
puzzle clues section. Swiping left to right will take you through the 
clues. Flick down once & now you are in the letters section to choose 
the letter groups to form the words to the clues above. A one finger 
double tap selects a letter group. Flicking up will take you back to the 
top of the page, letter group section, clues section, Back Button.
* A three finger single tap toggles between characters & words & how the 
clues will be read. This gesture can be used at any time during game 
play to change how voiceover speaks the clues.
* A two finger swipe. After choosing how you want the clues to be read 
by using the three finger single tap gesture, use two fingers & swipe 
from left to right. Voiceover will read the clue per your choice 
frontwards. If you use two fingers & swipe right to left voiceover will 
read things backwards.
That is all that you need to know to be able to successfully be able to 
play 7 Little Words.


hope that is of some use.  Janet

Hi Debby,
The latest version of 7 Little Words does use a slightly different version of 
Voice Over which allows us to extend this game across both the iOS and Android 
platforms. As such, there are some modifications and we realize we have done a 
poor job of communicating them and are rushing a build out to remedy this.

First off, here are the touch commands for navigating the game board for each 
puzzle:
* swipe right and left to advance through the screen elements as before, but 
now you can swipe down and up to jump between the major screen sections (back 
button, clues, answer/spelling, tiles)
* use a two finger tap to switch between reading by word or letter and two 
finger swipe to advance through each clue
* when you select a tile as part of an answer, you remain in the tile section, 
which should reduce the number of swipes you need

To note, the two-finger tap to switch the reading by word or letter will be 
switched to a three-finger tap in the next build as it sometimes caused 
confusion with the two-finger swipe.

We have hired a blind accessibility contractor to help us make it as accessible 
as possible but we greatly appreciate your feedback on how we can do this 
better. Your feedback on the click noise for each move is something I will get 
addressed in a forthcoming build, so that if you decide to turn off the "sound 
effects" in the game, it will turn off this clicking sound as you swipe through 
the board.

Please let us know if this is helpful and again appreciate any additional 
feedback you might have.

Hi Donna,

I am wondering what phone and which iOS version you are using. I 
really liked your solution for when someone accidentally turned off 
speech in 7 Little Words, however, on my iPhone SE 202 running iOS 
14.8 and 15 it didn’t work. I was sillily adventurous, and I turned 
off speech in the game. Then I went to the app switcher, and while on 
7 Little Words I turned the rotor to “direct touch” and turned it on. 
It didn’t restore speech to the game. Unless there is something I did 
wrong, I will have to delete the app and download it again.


I did have the most recent update working, and I am getting used to 
it. However, I sure wish you could turn off the infernal clicking. 
Right now that toggle still isn’t working. I am going to write to the 
developer about that.


Thanks for your help!

seconds. I can't use the display to control the game, but I
can flick with one hand and read with my other hand on the

Hi Janet,

Yes, a sighted person would need to go to setting,
and check the box for text to speech.

By the way, two friends and I did the same thing
Because we didn’t have working eyes available, we
completely deleted the app from our phones and then
downloaded it again. That brought speech back. If you
have purchased any puzzle packs you will need to
restore those purchases.

Take care and stay Safe!

I know for certain that screen recognition is not available for the iPhone 8 
plus so I don’t have to worry about that it’s probably the newer models of 
phones.

Hi,

Assuming that Direct Touch is still on per my previous instructions: Close 7 
Little Words from the app switcher, then reopen it. Voiceover should now be 
back on. Use one finger & swipe down to settings & tap to open. Swipe down to 
sound & use one finger & double tap to turn off the sounds. Make sure that you 
are using three fingers & taping only once. Wait a couple seconds between taps 
to toggle between words or characters. Without waiting the tap may be confused 
with the three finger double tap which toggles voiceover speech on & off.

Hi Donna,

 

I am wondering what phone and which iOS version you are using. I really liked 
your solution for when someone accidentally turned off speech in 7 Little 
Words, however, on my iPhone SE 202 running iOS 14.8 and 15 it didn’t work. I 
was sillily adventurous, and I turned off speech in the game. Then I went to 
the app switcher, and while on 7 Little Words I turned the rotor to “direct 
touch” and turned it on. It didn’t restore speech to the game. Unless there is 
something I did wrong, I will have to delete the app and download it again.

 

I did have the most recent update working, and I am getting used to it. 
However, I sure wish you could turn off the infernal clicking. Right now that 
toggle still isn’t working. I am going to write to the developer about that.

 

Thanks for your help!

 

Take care and stay safe!

Still seven little words

2021-09-25 Thread regina alvarado
Interesting. I went to the app store and asked for seven little words. When it 
searched for it then it said redownload beside it. I did redownload it after 
making certain it was Blue Ox. As was said it is almost unusable. However, I 
have Blue Ox Seven Little Words in my game folder and it works perfectly. It 
changes to a different puzzle after finishing one. The only thing is I cannot 
find where to buy puzzles. It acts as though I have deleted it in the app 
store, but I have not. No update yet, only if I search for it. What a mess!!!

Re: new Seven Little Words

2021-09-25 Thread Donna Casteen
Janet, Screen Recognition may be in your rotor. To get to screen recognition; 
Assuming that 7 little words is in the app switcher...Put voiceover focus on 7 
little words, turn the rotor until you hear screen recognition, flick to toggle 
it off, turn the rotor to words so that screen recognition does not get 
accidently turned on. If you want to play,just tap twice to open the game.

I wouldn't be surprised to find that some of the apps that you use also uses 
Direct Touch without you being aware, being in most cases Direct touch 
automatically gets switched on when you open an app.

 Hi everyone,

I actually got it to work! There was an update last night, but it 
still didn't work well, so I reinstalled it. I continued to have 
problems and discovered that Screen Recognition was on. Once I turned 
that off, it worked pretty well. I even got braille output! It puts 
out the braille as alert messages, so I set the Braille alert Message 
time to 3 seconds. I can't use the display to control the game, but I 
can flick with one hand and read with my other hand on the display. 
The word eye is displayed when the letter i is spoken in a clue, but 
otherwise, it seems to work. It's pretty responsive, and I like being 
able to do a single finger flick up or down to move between the 
sections of the game. I'm so happy that this is playable again!


Best,

Hi Janet,
Yes, a sighted person would need to go to setting, and check the 
box for text to speech.
By the way, two friends and I did the same thing Because we didn’t 
have working eyes available, we completely deleted the app from our

you have purchased any puzzle packs you will need to restore those

* when you select a tile as part of an answer, you
remain in the tile section, which should reduce
the number of swipes you need

To note, the two-finger tap to switch the reading
by word or letter will be switched to a
three-finger tap in the next build as it sometimes
caused confusion with the two-finger swipe.

We have hired a blind accessibility contractor to
help us make it as accessible as possible but we
greatly appreciate your feedback on how we can do
this better. Your feedback on the click noise for
each move is something I will get addressed in a

are rushing a build out to remedy this.

First off, here are the touch commands for
navigating the game board for each puzzle:

* swipe right and left to advance through the
screen elements as before, but now you can
swipe down and up to jump between the major
screen sections (back button, clues,
answer/spelling, tiles)

* use a two finger tap to switch between
reading by word or letter and two finger swipe
to advance through each clue

* when you select a tile as part of an answer,
you remain in the tile section, which should
reduce the number of swipes you need

It is such a shame, Janet, as the app has always been so accessible and was a 
godsend during lockdown. 

I think I saw in settings an e-mail where you can feed back and might do so. 

Perhaps it would be better if the designer had two apps, one for iPhones and 
one for Android rather than trying to make the app work with both. But what do 
I know (smile)!

Hi Debby,
The latest version of 7 Little Words does use a slightly different version of 
Voice Over which allows us to extend this game across both the iOS and Android 
platforms. As such, there are some modifications and we realize we have done a 
poor job of communicating them and are rushing a build out to remedy this.

First off, here are the touch commands for navigating the game board for each

finger swipe to advance through each clue

* when you select a tile as part of an answer, you remain in the tile section, 
which should reduce the number of swipes you need

To note, the two-finger tap to switch the reading by word or letter will be 
switched to a three-finger tap in the next build as it sometimes caused 
confusion with the two-finger swipe.

We have hired a blind accessibility contractor to help us make it as accessible 
as possible but we greatly appreciate your feedback on how we can do this 
better. Your feedback on the click noise for each move is something I will get 
addressed in a forthcoming build, so that if you decide to turn off the "sound 
effects" in the game, it will turn off this clicking sound as you swipe through 
the board.

Please let us know if this is helpful and again appreciate any additional 
feedback you might have.

With 7 Little words in the app switcher, open the app switcher, swipe to put 
voiceover focus on 7 Little words, turn the rotor to Direct Touch & flick 
down/up to turn on the feature, turn the rotor to letters/words, double tap to 
open. Voiceover should now be back on within the app. To navigate through the 
clues or word segments by letter or word, turn the rotor to character or word, 
using two fingers, swipe from left to right to advance letter by letter or word 
or swipe from right to left to go back by letter or word. One finger swipes 
advance or go back by row. And a one finger flick down or up advances or go 
back by game board segment ie. the clues area or the word segment area. The 
developers are using the swipe gestures that are used with Android devices.

Hi Janet,

 

Yes, a sighted person would need to go to setting, and check the box for text 
to speech.

 

By the way, two friends and I did the same thing Because we didn’t have working 
eyes available, we completely deleted the app from our phones and then 
downloaded it again. That brought speech back. If you have purchased any puzzle 
packs you will need to restore those purchases.

 

Take care and stay Safe!

 

Debby

Hi Alison,

 

Yes indeed this is definitely an update that broke things. I wrote to Blue Ox 
Family Games, the developer of 7 Little words, and below is the response I 
received:

 

Hi Debby,
The latest version of 7 Little Words does use a slightly different version of 
Voice Over which allows us to extend this game across both the iOS and Android 
platforms. As such, there are some modifications and we realize we have done a 
poor job of communicating them and are rushing a build out to remedy this.

First off, here are the touch commands for navigating the game board for each 
puzzle:

* swipe right and left to advance through the screen elements as before, but 
now you can swipe down and up to jump between the major screen sections (back 
button, clues, answer/spelling, tiles)

* use a two finger tap to switch between reading by word or letter and two 
finger swipe to advance through each clue

* when you select a tile as part of an answer, you remain in the tile section, 
which should reduce the number of swipes you need

To note, the two-finger tap to switch the reading by word or letter will be 
switched to a three-finger tap in the next build as it sometimes caused 
confusion with the two-finger swipe.

We have hired a blind accessibility contractor to help us make it as accessible 
as possible but we greatly appreciate your feedback on how we can do this 
better. Your feedback on the click noise for each move is something I will get 
addressed in a forthcoming build, so that if you decide to turn off the "sound 
effects" in the game, it will turn off this clicking sound as you swipe through 
the board.

Please let us know if this is helpful and again appreciate any additional 
feedback you might have.

Eric

Re: new Seven Little Words

2021-09-22 Thread Janet Bell
finally caught up with the update of 7 lettle words but I accidentally 
switched off text to speech so have no feedback whatsoever.  is there a 
way to get some speech back please?  Janet

Hi Debby,
The latest version of 7 Little Words does use a slightly different 
version of Voice Over which allows us to extend this game across both 
the iOS and Android platforms. As such, there are some modifications 
and we realize we have done a poor job of communicating them and are 
rushing a build out to remedy this.


First off, here are the touch commands for navigating the game board 
for each puzzle:


* swipe right and left to advance through the screen elements as 
before, but now you can swipe down and up to jump between the major 
screen sections (back button, clues, answer/spelling, tiles)


* use a two finger tap to switch between reading by word or letter and 
two finger swipe to advance through each clue


* when you select a tile as part of an answer, you remain in the tile 
section, which should reduce the number of swipes you need


To note, the two-finger tap to switch the reading by word or letter 
will be switched to a three-finger tap in the next build as it 
sometimes caused confusion with the two-finger swipe.


We have hired a blind accessibility contractor to help us make it as 
accessible as possible but we greatly appreciate your feedback on how 
we can do this better. Your feedback on the click noise for each move 
is something I will get addressed in a forthcoming build, so that if 
you decide to turn off the "sound effects" in the game, it will turn 
off this clicking sound as you swipe through the board.


Please let us know if this is helpful and again appreciate any 
additional feedback you might have.

I need to play with a bit more, I know, but I am finding it sluggish and it 
isn’t as easy to quickly go from the clues to the questions.

I also made the mistake of switching the text to speech optiton of to see what 
happened, but it then went completely silent and I had to get sighted 
assistance to sort it out.

With the instructions it kind of works, but it is not really fun to reinvent 
the wheel for interacting with the game.

 

I wrote back and thanked Eric for his prompt response, and suggested that they 
add phonetics to reading by letter. I suggested that if people don’t like the 
extra pronouncement that having the phonetics be a toggle in settings.

Thanks for this information. I just wrote to the developer as well because the 
game is certainly unplayable as it is. If they are building a self-voicing 
option, that would probably be terrible for deafblind folks who use a braille 
display to play the game, so I brought that up as well. I'll let you know what 
they say.

Hi Alison,

 

Yes indeed this is definitely an update that broke things. I wrote to Blue Ox 
Family Games, the developer of 7 Little words, and below is the response I 
received:

 

Hi Debby,
The latest version of 7 Little Words does use a slightly different version of 
Voice Over which allows us to extend this game across both the iOS and Android 
platforms. As such, there are some modifications and we realize we have done a 
poor job of communicating them and are rushing a build out to remedy this.

First off, here are the touch commands for navigating the game board for each 
puzzle:

* swipe right and left to advance through the screen elements as before, but 
now you can swipe down and up to jump between the major screen sections (back 
button, clues, answer/spelling, tiles)

* use a two finger tap to switch between reading by word or letter and two 
finger swipe to advance through each clue

* when you select a tile as part of an answer, you remain in the tile section, 
which should reduce the number of swipes you need

To note, the two-finger tap to switch the reading by word or letter will be 
switched to a three-finger tap in the next build as it sometimes caused 
confusion with the two-finger swipe.

We have hired a blind accessibility contractor to help us make it as accessible 
as possible but we greatly appreciate your feedback on how we can do this 
better. Your feedback on the click noise for each move is something I will get 
addressed in a forthcoming build, so that if you decide to turn off the "sound

Please let us know if this is helpful and again appreciate any additional

RE: new Seven Little Words

2021-09-20 Thread Debby
With the instructions it kind of works, but it is not really fun to reinvent 
the wheel for interacting with the game.

 

I wrote back and thanked Eric for his prompt response, and suggested that they 
add phonetics to reading by letter. I suggested that if people don’t like the 
extra pronouncement that having the phonetics be a toggle in settings.

Thanks for this information. I just wrote to the developer as well because the 
game is certainly unplayable as it is. If they are building a self-voicing 
option, that would probably be terrible for deafblind folks who use a braille 
display to play the game, so I brought that up as well. I'll let you know what 
they say.

Hi Alison,

 

Yes indeed this is definitely an update that broke things. I wrote to Blue Ox 
Family Games, the developer of 7 Little words, and below is the response I 
received:

 

Hi Debby,
The latest version of 7 Little Words does use a slightly different version of 
Voice Over which allows us to extend this game across both the iOS and Android 
platforms. As such, there are some modifications and we realize we have done a 
poor job of communicating them and are rushing a build out to remedy this.

First off, here are the touch commands for navigating the game board for each 
puzzle:

* swipe right and left to advance through the screen elements as before, but 
now you can swipe down and up to jump between the major screen sections (back 
button, clues, answer/spelling, tiles)

* use a two finger tap to switch between reading by word or letter and two 
finger swipe to advance through each clue

* when you select a tile as part of an answer, you remain in the tile section, 
which should reduce the number of swipes you need

To note, the two-finger tap to switch the reading by word or letter will be 
switched to a three-finger tap in the next build as it sometimes caused 
confusion with the two-finger swipe.

We have hired a blind accessibility contractor to help us make it as accessible 
as possible but we greatly appreciate your feedback on how we can do this 
better. Your feedback on the click noise for each move is something I will get 
addressed in a forthcoming build, so that if you decide to turn off the "sound 
effects" in the game, it will turn off this clicking sound as you swipe through 
the board.

Please let us know if this is helpful and again appreciate any additional 
feedback you might have.

Eric

Re: seven little words

2021-07-18 Thread Donna Casteen
Hi Janet, The object of the game is to make words down & across in the grid. 
Think Tic-Tac Dough Game. The game grids can be 3 or more letters square. To 
insert a letter into a blank space, tap on the blank space, the keyboard will 
appear, type in the letter that when added to the already letters will complete 
the word in that row or column.

Hi,
The answer to the first clue on the hidden flowers puzzle is Everglades.
The answer to the second one is masterful.
The answer to the third clue is hostage.
The answer to the fourth one is Upsadaisy.
The answer to the fifth one is minimums.
The answer to the sixth one is satirists.
The answer to the final clue is prosecutor.
I’m not sure how flowers tie into some of these, but I see how they do in

see the word mums.
Hope this helps!

In settings you can choose the level of difficulty. If you are really stuck for 
an answer, you can double tap "hints" and it will give you a few of the letters 
to start you off, or you keep hitting it until it gives you the whole answer.
