The screen now correctly scrolls to follow the movement of VoiceOver focus. This has been a significant problem since the initial release of iOS 8, and means that VoiceOver users no longer have to resort to 3-finger swiping and locating by touch to do simple things such as opening email attachments or making purchases from the Amazon Mobile app. 2. Siri now functions correctly when used with VoiceOver, and all commands/responses appear to be spoken fully. 3. VoiceOver now consistently announces when a new push notification is received, even when the device is locked. 4. VoiceOver now automatically reads the Caller ID for incoming phone calls. 5. If your iPhone is muted, VoiceOver once again provides feedback when you touch or swipe the screen when there is an incoming call. 6. It appears as though some work has been done to prevent the screen from auto-locking while VoiceOver is speaking. 7. VoiceOver appears to perform better when navigating the Details screen of message threads that contain attachments. It looks like among other things, 8.1.1 should run better on the 4S and the older iPads.

Re: iOS 8.1.1 has been released
Pablo originally wondered if it was worth upgrading. For iPhone 5 users, the answer now is a definite no. A review of iOS 8.1.1 using an iPhone 5 just published in Got to Be Mobile has this to say: begin quote Speed: This is where everything falls apart. The iPhone 5 with iOS 7.1.2 on board was fast. The iPhone 5 with iOS 8.0 and iOS 8.0.2 on board wasn’t as fast but the speed was tolerable. The iPhone 5 with iOS 8.1 or iOS 8.1.1 on board is not tolerable. While iOS 8.1.1 is stable from a bug standpoint, the software is just as sluggish as the iOS 8.1 update. Here’s what I mean by sluggish. I am constantly seeing delays with the transitions and animations of the operating system, even after I minimized them in the settings. It takes far too long for folders and apps to open and I’ve noticed slowdown and random freezing when simply moving about the home screen. I honestly don’t know what happened but it’s really soured the experience. end quote The entire review from Adam Mills can be read at: http://www.gottabemobile.com/2014/11/22/iphone-5-ios-8-1-1-review/ Kelly On 11/20/14, Jeffrey Turner jturner...@gmail.com wrote: Dratted annoying behavior of Gmail web interface!

Re: iOS 8.1.1 has been released
For what it's worth, my iPhone 5 feels no slower on iOS 8.x than it did on 7.x. Certainly, 8.1.1 didn't slow anything down at all. There are still bugs, to be sure, but I find braille input, interactive notifications, the improved Spotlight, and other features more than worth the minor annoyance of some bugs that rarely bother me.

This is not true for everyone. I never had 7, but I can't agree that 1-2 seconds for an app to open is too long. I only started with 8.1 to be fair, but my old 4s on 7 last year seemed very sluggish comparatively.

iOS 8.1.1 has been released
Dratted annoying behavior of Gmail web interface! Am resending for those who very reasonably dislike reading all the way through old messages to find new content. What's wrong with google, anyway? Hi Christopher, I have found that the best way to insure focus is on the delete button in mail is to touch it twice, and then do a single finger double tap. This is much more annoying than it used to be, but not nearly as annoying as having to dismiss the reply dialog when what you wanted was to delete the message.

If you mean clearing the search field in the app store then yes, just double tap Clear text twice. The second time you hear a bonk sound which indicates there is nothing there any more and if you swipe right it will say “Double tap to dismiss instead of clear text and that means the search field is empty even though Voiceover will still announce what you last typed in.

Hi Sieghard I hear so many people complaining about a bug in safari that you can nolonger navigate page per page with a three finger swipe up or down. Sorry but I cannot reproduce this, on most sites I can navigate down to the last page with these gestures. This mail with the very conprehensive list of small inconveniences helped me a lot.

Re: is 8.1.1 has been released
Hi, Nobody at Apple yet has told anyone to bite the dust. Like everything else in the past, it will be fixed. It did work and it will work again. They had more problems than they counted on, they released the software too early because of market pressures but, we have to admit they never have put out so many updates so quickly before. They didn't have only accessibility problems so I don't know why we feel so targetted. Everybody is having problems as well as we are and we can't think that they will only take care of our problems Just an opinion Ron Danvers -Original Message- From: Mary Anne Lynskey Sent: Wednesday, November 19, 2014 5:56 PM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: is 8.1.1 has been released That is the most ridiculous solution I've ever heard.

Re: is 8.1.1 has been released
Hi Mary Ann and Pablo. It amazes me when I hear these comments like this from people, that they still use the device even though they just bad mouthed it. And it amazes me more when I hear Raul say that Pablo has made these same comments ever since iOS6, maybe even iOS 5. So the question I have to ask is if you've been feeling this way for a very long time, why haven't you switched to something that will meet your needs? Obviously Apple's doing something right if people keep coming back to them. And as for Apple playing with the disabled community, let me ask you this one important question. If in fact others feel the same way you do, do you really think that they would keep buying Apple products? I don't think so. So again, Apple must be doing something right. I'm sorry if I sound like I'm too loyal to Apple, but I'll keep using my Mac and my iPhone, because they're meeting my needs, so again, they must be doing something right.

Re: is 8.1.1 has been released
Agreed completely. Unfortunately, on public lists, some folks have a tendency to go on emotional rants and amplify their personal grievances. As someone who works in the area of accessibility for Apple, I am often perplexed and puzzled by the assertions and assumptions I read. However, since I spent some 18 years as a vendor for blindness products and dealt with the same sorts of comments and assumptions, I'm not surprised. No company will ever please everyone and despite all of the positives and the access we are given, there is always someone who will find it more productive to emphasize what they perceive is the negatives. Apple is far from giving up on accessibility, and playing with the disabled is one of the most ridiculous things I've heard. It's the farthest thing from the truth. That is all I can and will say on that matter. If you think there is a better solution for you, I'll be willing to bet the farm that you will only find things to complain about that solution once you find out that the grass isn't greener. Been there and done that in my life more than once too. Take Care John D.

Re: is 8.1.1 has been released
Yes, it is the most rediculous solution, and it is unnecessary, at least on my iPhone 5s running iOS 8.1.1, my girlfriend's iPhones 5 and 6+ running iOS 8.1.1, her ipad 2, 3, and 4, all running iOS 8.1 and 8.1.1 (not all are upgraded yet). Testing on all of these devices moves apps the way they have always moved, both on the home screen, and into and out from folders. Did you test for yourself before going off on your over-the-top absolutely rediculous rant at Apple I run my business primarily from my iPhone es using iOS 8.1.1. Before iOS 8, I needed to use a bluetooth braille display for the keyboard. Now, because I spent the time to learn the braille input, I no longer need to carry my braille display. I only use it now when I am proofreading important documents and presentations. Note: this email is being typed using braille input, and I am finally as fast as with the braille display keyboard. As for the moving and deleting apps in the last row, as reported by some users, I have not experienced this problem with any of the afor mentioned iDevices. This means, it is an intermentent bug, not a bug that effects all devices. The problem with such bugs is they are extremely difficult to find, and even more difficult to correct Oh, and a note about testing for bugs, if you do so whilst stressed (such as the state you were in when writing this email, you will very easily cause the appearance of such bugs just because of your emotional excitation. Try again later, after relaxing and taking many deep breaths. Then, try again the next day, at a different time of day, when you are under different conditions. Learning anything new is always stressful, and we always make mistakes. In fact, the greater the stress and anxiety, the worse the mistakes we make. Apple continues inovating. They continue adding new features to iOS, to VoiceOver, and to general accessibility. In six months, my girlfriend and I will be presenting a paper comparing Apple's latest with Android's latest regarding all of each system's accessibility options. So, I will start learning Android TalkBack this weekend. My girlfriend finds Apple's low vision features to be better overall than Android. That said, we will start testing with low vision students in January. So, contrary to your assertions, Steve Jobs would be quite happy with Apple and where it is heading.

Re: iOS 8.1.1 has been released
I still have the bug on my iPhone 4S where touching the delete button, or any button in the Mail app, doesn't actually give that button VocieOver focus. I have to swipe to a button to make sure that a double tap will activate the right button. On 11/19/2014 10:20 AM, Sieghard Weitzel wrote: Hi Davy, All gone is a touch optimistic. Apart from the two issues you mentioned, some people still can’t clear notifications and the button still says “Confirm Clear Section” where it should just say “Clear Section” and then go to “Confirm clear section” once you double tap it. Also, if you go to Settings, Sounds and go into where you change your default ringtone or text tone, you are still kicked back to the home screen if you start swiping right and once you get onto the vibration picker. There is an easy work-around for this which is not to swipe, but to first touch the middle of the screen and then swipe, but it’s still a bug. The search field in the App Store still shows whatever you searched for even if you clear the field with “Clear all” and even though the field visually is empty if you double tap Clear All twice Voiceover will read your last entered text. The keypad tones still disappear a while after my last reboot of the phone, once again, not a big deal, but a minor bug.

RE: iOS 8.1.1 has been released
Hi Jessica, It seems very few people can't clear their sections in notification centre. I can't remember who it was, but somebody who said the triple tap with one finger or a double tap followed by another double tap wasn't working for them until they did I think a hard reset of the iPhone. Once again, most of us can clear the notification centre just as easily as we can move apps around with Voiceover running.

Resetting Network Settings was RE: iOS 8.1.1 has been released
Sieghard, I assume that resetting network settings will also cause you to lose all wi-fi password settings for any previous networks you've logged on to. If one moves around a lot to many different wi-fi networks, losing this can be a major inconvenience. Obviously, the cost of this inconvenience must be weighed against any benefit this network reset offers when upgrading.

RE: Resetting Network Settings was RE: iOS 8.1.1 has been released
Hi Alan, Yes, if you use 5 or 6 different WiFi networks then that could be inconvenient. I mostly use my Home WiFi and my work WiFi and a couple of times a year I visit my parents and may use theirs or that of a friend. I don't find entering 3 or 4 WiFi passwords very inconvenient, but everybody is different and for some it may be a daunting task knowing they have to reconnect to even just their own home WiFi. In this case removing all apps from the app switcher and at least shutting down the phone for 30 seconds and turning it back on is a good compromise. I know a couple people here said they don't even close out their apps when they upgrade. All I can say here is to each their own. I have heard a lot of stories where people upgraded without doing any of the recommended things and they end up with horrible battery life, unexpected crashes or other weird inconsistancies. I am just not prepared to risk that especially since doing even the Reset all Network settings at best takes 2 or 3 minutes.

RE: is 8.1.1 has been released
Hi Jessica, I apologize for disagreeing with you. This is like having to turn Voiceover off to tap the End Call button or whatever it was you said the other day. There are a lot of people o the list including myself who are completely blind and who move apps with Voiceover just fine. Yes, there is one bug and that is effecting apps in the last row above the dock. For me 2 of the 4 apps in that row can't be moved, for others none of them can't be moved. But I can move all other apps either to other spots on the home screen, to other home screens or into folders and positively saying that it can't be done unless you turn off Voiceover is not correct information. I assume it is possible that somebody's phone may have other issues just as some people say they can't clear notifications by triple tapping the Confirm clear section button or double tapping it twice. Either method does it for me and for most, but apparently for some it doesn't.

RE: Resetting Network Settings was RE: iOS 8.1.1 has been released
Sieghard, You're preaching to the choir here. I agree that your suggestions are wise to follow when doing an iOS upgrade. I've experienced the disaster when helping a friend upgrade to iOS 7 through iTunes and it didn't take and required her to reset her phone and start over.

RE: Resetting Network Settings was RE: iOS 8.1.1 has been released
Hi John, I think this is one case where you have your opinion and we have ours and we'll just have to agree that we disagree. Not much point in saying you are right since there is no way to proof that it is so. Just because you never had problems with an upgrade not doing this doesn't mean somebody who had problems might not have avoided them by doing it. It's a bit like upgrading from Windows 7 to Windows 8. Microsoft may make it possible to upgrade, but I would never do it and the only way I ever upgrade from one major version of Windows to another is by doing a complete fresh install and in the same way I will always do a Reset All Network Settings or at least a reboot of my device after removing all apps from the app switcher before doing any sort of iOS update.

Alan Lemly -Original Message- From: viphone@googlegroups.com [mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Sieghard Weitzel Sent: Monday, November 17, 2014 10:14 PM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: RE: iOS 8.1.1 has been released Hi Christina and Eden, The least one should do before an update is to remove all apps from the app switcher and to turn off the phone, wait 30 seconds and turn it back on. This is just good practice because an iPhone which has not been rebooted for a long time can have stuff in memory and so on which may negatively impact an iOS update. Doing a Reset all Network Settings in Settings, General, Reset does in fact not delete any networks, but it will as the name indicates reset all network modems to factory settings and it will delete your WiFi password which means after you reboot the phone you have to go to Settings, WiFi and reconnect to your WiFi. However, it will also clear out anything which potentially could effect an update from memory and it is something some people who know a thing about iOS recommend. It's not strictly necessary, but while I have often read on the list how people had problems where an update didn't complete or really messed up the phone, I have never in 5 years had a single problem with an update not going perfectly smooth and I do follow my own advice here.

Re: is 8.1.1 has been released
I too am totally blind and have had no trouble in moving apps. I have experienced the apps in the last row above the dock not being able to be moved, but I can move apps to other screens or other parts of the same screen. Moving apps is a bit of a science at times, so if you are to the point of turning off VoiceOver, perhaps you need more practice in moving apps around.

The screen now correctly scrolls to follow the movement of VoiceOver focus. This has been a significant problem since the initial release of iOS 8, and means that VoiceOver users no longer have to resort to 3-finger swiping and locating by touch to do simple things such as opening email attachments or making purchases from the Amazon Mobile app. 2. Siri now functions correctly when used with VoiceOver, and all commands/responses appear to be spoken fully. 3. VoiceOver now consistently announces when a new push notification is received, even when the device is locked. 4. VoiceOver now automatically reads the Caller ID for incoming phone calls. 5. If your iPhone is muted, VoiceOver once again provides feedback when you touch or swipe the screen when there is an incoming call. 6. It appears as though some work has been done to prevent the screen from auto-locking while VoiceOver is speaking. 7. VoiceOver appears to perform better when navigating the Details screen of message threads that contain attachments. It looks like among other things, 8.1.1 should run better on the 4S and the older iPads.

RE: iOS 8.1.1 has been released
Hi Pablo. All iOS versions have Voice Over bugs, Safari bugs, mail bugs, messages bugs, phone call bugs, ETC. You will never get a completely bug-free system. You will have to decide for yourself which bugs are deal breakers for you and which ones you can live with. For me specifically for example, the voice over scrolling bug which has been there since iOS 8.0 and all the way through 8.1 has now been fixed with iOS 8.1.1. Are there other bugs, of course there are. I have known your posts since before iOS 6 basically saying the same thing. If you want Apple to put out a bug free iOS, you will be waiting forever. You can read the messages on this busy list, or you can go over to www.applevis.com and see what they have to say about the existing bugs there. Good luck.

Re: iOS 8.1.1 has been released
Hi Raul. I don't know why you are saying that I want an IOs free of bugs. I didn't say in my email, please read it again. I am just asking if he bugs that has been boring the voice over users, are still there. Why I am asking this? well, because with IOs 8, there were found many, too much bugs, later with the IOs 8.1, not many of those bugs were fixed. Of course that my question make sense, I am asking again, if the bugs that you, user of IOs 8 found in this release, are still in IOs 8.1.1. It is not so difficult to understand. Now if I am wanting that apple develop an IOs free of bugs, believe me Raul, I know that it will never be. This is a busy list? yes, maybe if apple makes a better job creating their operated system, the number of email list will be very few. But, I know it is a lie for ever. Well, thinking about how busy is this email list, is because of this, that I am asking. I am not able to read 300 emails daily. Sorry, I am very busy. But I promise you, that I will keep my topic until apple stop playing with their customers. Yes, you have been looking my emails since IOs 6, later IOs 7, IOs 8, and so on I am not hapy? yes, and I am using my right to highlight something that ai believe unfair..

RE: iOS 8.1.1 has been released
Hi Pablo, Of course you decide when to upgrade, but iOS 8.1.1 is in my opinion a pretty good compromise. Yes, there are some bugs, but some major ones have been fixed and some of the new features are nice. Like I said, you have the information and you decide. Apple is definitely planning lots of updates to iOS 8. Usually there is only 1 major update, e.g. in iOS 7 there was 7.1 and then 7.1.2 which was the last version. It took Apple until March to release iOS 7.1 whereas this time iOS 8.1 was released in October. There are lots of rumours that Apple has already been working on iOS 8.2 and I guess there is a chance that before 8.2 we’ll see 8.1.2 so like I said, Apple may not have released iOS 8 with a minimum of bugs, but they are working hard on making it better. Keep in mind that with Android you are largely at the mercy of carriers as to when you get an update or not and many carrier do their own customizations to Android which make accessibility more difficult.

Re: iOS 8.1.1 has been released
For those wondering, here are the accessibility fixes mentioned by AppleVis: 1. The screen now correctly scrolls to follow the movement of VoiceOver focus. This has been a significant problem since the initial release of iOS 8, and means that VoiceOver users no longer have to resort to 3-finger swiping and locating by touch to do simple things such as opening email attachments or making purchases from the Amazon Mobile app. 2. Siri now functions correctly when used with VoiceOver, and all commands/responses appear to be spoken fully. 3. VoiceOver now consistently announces when a new push notification is received, even when the device is locked. 4. VoiceOver now automatically reads the Caller ID for incoming phone calls. 5. If your iPhone is muted, VoiceOver once again provides feedback when you touch or swipe the screen when there is an incoming call. 6. It appears as though some work has been done to prevent the screen from auto-locking while VoiceOver is speaking. 7. VoiceOver appears to perform better when navigating the Details screen of message threads that contain attachments. It looks like among other things, 8.1.1 should run better on the 4S and the older iPads.

RE: iOS 8.1.1 has been released
Yes, iOS 8.1.1 doesn't mention accessibility fixes but there seem to be a number of very good and very much needed improvements and I think anybody who hasn't upgraded now should find iOS 8 to be a pretty good experience.

Re: iOS 8.1.1 has been released
Some use ITunes to update their phones but I haven't done this since very early days of using an IPod. I find it very straightforward just to update over the air (WiFi). I always remove all apps from the switcher. Sometimes I have loads running and think there's no point in leaving them in the system as it just may be better for updating to have done it. I also reboot my phone and plug it in. You go to Settings, General and then Updates. You will be told if you have one and guided through. You can miss things if you leave your phone during update so may not know how far it's got but eventually, once updated, rebooted and put back any apps you have, it should come up speaking. You may then have to do a few little things to finish the setup, but you will be guided through that part. I do not have notification that I have the update yet. (Perhaps Santa's forgotten me), so I can't speak specifically to this one but have done a number now. It's not really that scary, honest! Hope this helps.

RE: iOS 8.1.1 has been released
Hi Christina and Eden, The least one should do before an update is to remove all apps from the app switcher and to turn off the phone, wait 30 seconds and turn it back on. This is just good practice because an iPhone which has not been rebooted for a long time can have stuff in memory and so on which may negatively impact an iOS update. Doing a Reset all Network Settings in Settings, General, Reset does in fact not delete any networks, but it will as the name indicates reset all network modems to factory settings and it will delete your WiFi password which means after you reboot the phone you have to go to Settings, WiFi and reconnect to your WiFi. However, it will also clear out anything which potentially could effect an update from memory and it is something some people who know a thing about iOS recommend. It's not strictly necessary, but while I have often read on the list how people had problems where an update didn't complete or really messed up the phone, I have never in 5 years had a single problem with an update not going perfectly smooth and I do follow my own advice here.

Thanks. I have never done this before an update.

The screen now correctly scrolls to follow the movement of VoiceOver focus. This has been a significant problem since the initial release of iOS 8, and means that VoiceOver users no longer have to resort to 3-finger swiping and locating by touch to do simple things such as opening email attachments or making purchases from the Amazon Mobile app. 2. Siri now functions correctly when used with VoiceOver, and all commands/responses appear to be spoken fully. 3. VoiceOver now consistently announces when a new push notification is received, even when the device is locked. 4. VoiceOver now automatically reads the Caller ID for incoming phone calls. 5. If your iPhone is muted, VoiceOver once again provides feedback when you touch or swipe the screen when there is an incoming call. 6. It appears as though some work has been done to prevent the screen from auto-locking while VoiceOver is speaking. 7. VoiceOver appears to perform better when navigating the Details screen of message threads that contain attachments. It looks like among other things, 8.1.1 should run better on the 4S and the older iPads.

Make sure all apps are updated 3. Remove all apps from the app switcher and at least reboot your phone by turning it off and on again or do a Reset all Network settings which will also reboot your phone.
