Hi,
and this for me is the beauty of lists such as this. Though they sometimes
stray and get mired down in ancillary stuff from time to time they are also
places where the milk of human kindness has not yet run dry and through the
kindness of others we can all learn something new. Peter and Conrad I bow
to your greatness you're legends. Thank you just as Conrad described it
actually did just work for me. I could indeed reproduce it and hopefully
will be able to use it again in future. It is not the most straightforward
on screen element I've ever seen but it can indeed be used.
Again I sincerely and warmly thank you and appreciate your willingness to
teach this wee girl something new today.
Robin

through AT&T
I just tried it with the iOS app it worked well you have to double tap and
hold on the collar for a few seconds then it will come up with the option to
select the color that you want then you tap to select the link toward the
bottom of the screen

I'm not with AT&T, but I have been an AT&T custoemr before, and can
recall many instances on their site where there were accessibility
issues. Good luck in your dialog with them. I hope they fix their
issues.

Hi,
My apologies if this strays from the strictest definitions of this list
but
since it does directly relate to upgrading or preordering devices as well
as
touching on the accessibility of an app perhaps it still fits.
I’m just curious if any other listers went through the process of
upgrading
a device on their AT&T accounts either via their My AT&T app or via their
site with a screen reader?
My experience was that while most of the information both in the app and
on
the web page could easily be read there were some standard type elements
which for some reason couldn’t be executed in the app or on the site
using
VoiceOver or a screen reader.
Since I’m attempting to dialog with AT&T in an effort to hopefully
improve
their accessibility specifically in this area I thought it might be
helpful
to gage the experiences of others should there be any.
It was my experience for instance that in the iOS app the process of
moving
through the steps went great until you reached the point at which you
were
to select your color and storage capacity. Those elements appeared as a
link
for instance for color but when one tried to double tap on it or any
other
gesture you could imagine nothing happened. At this juncture you were
good
and stuck with no way forward.
On the website interestingly the elements for color selection and storage
capacity appeared as check boxes in Internet Explorer which worked fine
but
list boxes in FireFox which couldn’t be executed with any of the 3
windows
screen readers I had at my disposal. And in Internet Explorer the
continue
links that advanced you through each step and its accompanying page were
quite tricky to activate and only did so with one screen reader.
If anyone had experiences that were either similar or differed from that
which I had I’d love to hear about it so as to most affectively
communicate
with AT&T in an effort to make this upgrade area better for us all going
forward. By and large I feel AT&T has done a decent job concerning
accessibility both in their iOS app and on site. Here’s hoping this
glitchy
area can be ironed out too.
