Re: Question about FceBook - is it accessible using voiceover on IOS devices?

BTW:  one can use the mobile interface at - http://m.facebook.com - which 
simplifies the process no end.  Still do that on XP,  I 
still have XP here.  But certainly the dedicated app is the best way to use the 
service, and for sure there is no obvious way around 
those captures.  In this day and age, they aren't even necessary.  I've met 
perfectly good textual puzzles that rattle the 'bot's 
marbles loose.

Hi Eleanor,
Facebook is more accessible using an iPhone or iPad than it is in my opinion on 
a PC. I use it all the time. If my memory serves me 
correctly, there is a capcha that needs solving first so yo may initially need 
someone's eyes to help though this may have been 
dealt with now.
Happy Facebooking!
Carla.

Re: Question about FceBook - is it accessible using voiceover on IOS devices?

2016-06-01 Thread 'RobH.' via VIPhone 
Pardon a silly question:-   if one installs the Facebook app, and hasn't 
got an account,  will the app not guide you through 
that setup process?

This is a genuine question as I don't know the answer - I did have an account 
setup from ages since - but it might be the answer the 
original questioner needs.

Hi all

Just a quick question about FaceBook. I'd really like to set up an account and 
start using it. However, when I tried to do this a 
couple of years ago to be honest I didn't find it very accessible on my IPad 
and IPhone when totally reliant on voiceover (which I 
am). So I just wondered whether things had improved and whether it was now 
accessible using VO? I use Twitter all the time and have 
no issues with it, and I'd love to do the same with FaceBook, but don't really 
want to take the plunge without asking about others 
experiences first.

Thanks for any help you can give.

Eleanor

Hi Elinor, Facebook is pretty accessible on the iPhone, but to set up an 
account, you might have to do that through the computer at M.Facebook.com.
