James, Actually it's fully accessible and does exactly what it claims to do. The only information it gives is the current temp and the high for the next five days. It's a minimal app. No clutter. You want more info go use weather bug or some other app that goes in depth. You want minimalist

Hi, In that case, I may have the right app. I thought I had the wrong one because its not accessible and I was told it was. I guess yu could slide your finger down to the row of days and then slide down to the temperature but if you don't slide down perfectly straight, there is no way to find

I set my rotor to vertical navigation and flick right through the days and down to get the temp for that day. Or after hitting Saturday and flicking down to the temp I just say the next day in my head. Keith On Mar 4, 2013, at 10:27 AM, Ron Pelletier ron.pellet...@sympatico.ca wrote: Hi,

Hi Keith, I'm doing well with the VO calendar. I have one question so far. How do you stop recording or do you have to let it run. I can't seem to stop it with a double tap when I'm finished my vocal note. Seems like a waste of space. Please help Ron Danvers -Original Message-

Hi, When I look for conditions, I get over 300 results. Can you give me the name of the developer? I tried the first one just because it was simply called Conditions but, no go. Ron Danvers -Original Message- From: viphone@googlegroups.com [mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com] On Behalf

I found conditions not to be completely accessible actually. I can see enough to know there are graphics that show what it is going to be like each day and voiceover says nothing about these graphics. It does not even tell you graphics are there. So I don't even think you could label all of the

Hi there, I saw the description of the Vo calender app in the app store and the only thing that could maybe be of interest is the voice note feature, but my question is: Why would we use this reinvention of the wheel when there's a perfectly working calendar with different views, month, week,

There are like a million apps in the App Store, so of course there's a lot of redundancy. I think the better question is how blind people find this useful and then each person can decide if it's truly redundant for them or not. On 02/03/13 05:07, Krister Ekstrom wrote: Hi there, I saw the

Krister, I agree, sort of. Yes the built in Calendar app is accessible. But no it does not have a week view. It only has list, day and month. And when in month it only tells you that you have something scheduled on a particular day, not what is scheduled. I like the VO Calendar app as I can

Hi, I agree with Keith on this one. I have purchased the app and am happy with my purchase. It's not an app you absolutely need, as the inbuilt calendar is fully accessible. However, the efficiency that this app provides is well worth it in my opinion. If you rely on the calendar a lot, as I do
