RE: quite annoyed with bespecular!
Hi Rich, I just downloaded Bispecular and while I had signed up for it in the past, I went through the sign up process out of curiocity and to see if I can replicate what some of you seem to experience. When I first opened the app I was asked if I want to allow push notifications, I said "Allow" On the next screen I found a "Sign Up" and a "Log In" button, clearly labelled and straight forward. I tapped on Sign Up, the next screen had a Cancel button at the top left, then the heading "Sign Up" also on the top row. Underneath it says "Please sign up to be part of Bispecular's awesome community". Then it says "Account type" and this is followed by two buttons, Sighted and Visually Impaired and it seems the visually impaired button is selected by default. After that it asks for first name and last name which are both normal edit fields. Then next is "Pick your language" which says also "text field", but when I double tap on it it immediately put "English" in this text field and when I touch near the bottom of the screen above the home button it has a picker item which says "English, picker item, adjustable". For me this only had "English" and with a flick up "Italiano" as the two choices. A flick left from English put me on the Done button which is standard procedure for picker items. After I tapped done the next item which is the Age text field was already activated. It works the same way, the first choice "Less than 15" is inserted into the text field, but if you touch above the home button you have the picker item and flicking up gets you 20, 21-25, 26-40, 41-60 and 60 Plus as options. Flick to the one that applies to you, swipe left once and tap on "Done" and it moves on to the next required field which is email address. For me Voiceover correctly said "text field is editing, email, character mode, insertion point at start". the Age picker item, here it's automatically at the lowest setting, Less than 15, if I flick up I get 20, then 21-25, 26-40, 41-60 and 60+, again the Done button is there a flick to the left. After that there is only the password field, a confirm password field and a field which says "A short bio describing yourself, not required but appreciated by our VIP's". At the very end is a proceed button, I didn't tap it since I was already registered, but certainly filling out the form seemed fully accessible and far from a ridiculous experience, it took me less than a minute. At the beginning when I filled in my first name and swiped right assuming it would then go to last name it did seem to jump to password, but a quick 3-finger tap in the middle of the screen told me I was on page 2 of 2, I did a swipe up with 3 fingers to go back to the first page, touched in the middle and immediately found the last name field.

Re: quite annoyed with bespecular!
Jen, Don't worry about bothering people! recently many of us received emails from Be My Eyes saying "please use it!" They have too many volunteers who have never actually received a request for assistance. in order to keep it alive, they really want us to use it! Plus, the volunteers can choose not to answer… I have only used it a few times, but every time the person was absolutely delighted to receive a call. Plus, it is diverted around the globe, so, no matter what time you use the app, you won't be waking someone up! go for it!

Re: quite annoyed with bespecular!
I have the app but havnt used it yet. When you get to the picker items you need to press the done button Which is usually on the left of the picker when you have selected what you want.

Re: quite annoyed with bespecular!
Jen, It's Sandy again! I find be my eyes is the most useful of all these sighted assistance apps. you don't have to get a perfect shot for the help to be helpful. because the app uses the back facing camera in video mode, your assistant can just say "move it to the left" et cetera and then can read the screen for you. have you tried it?t Good luck, Sandy sent from the dark side of the moon > On 29 Apr 2017, at 11:23, Jenifer Barr wrote: > > Hi all. > First let me appologize for the rant I may go on. lol! > > I'm trying to sign up with bespecular, because after all it is an app for the > visually impaired, right? lol.

quite annoyed with bespecular!
Hi all. First let me appologize for the rant I may go on. lol! I'm trying to sign up with bespecular, because after all it is an app for the visually impaired, right? lol. So anyway I can't use the stupid age or language pickers! Ha! So how is an app that is supposed to help us do so if it doesn't work with voiceover to even sign up? I'm sorry I'm just quite annoyed because I need someone to read a lcd display for me. Ok rant over. Can anyone confirm this issue I'm having? I can't even leave feedback because the only options I have are to sign up or log in! lol. Go figure! Thanks for listening.
