Re: iMessage screen effects are working

[Gordan Radić]

Hi! I'll confirm on this one so you can disregard my last message in another thread. As I know, if you have iPhone without 3D Touch you need to double tap and hold and if you do have 3D Touch you need to force it down, double tap and hold wont work on 3D Touch enabled models. When you activate the effects menu (sort of) you have a choice between screen and balloon. I apologise if the translations are not correct. Screen choice means effect in full screen mode while balloon effects means a balloon animation or something. Depending on a chosen option there are different effect lists. In first case there is a list with crash, loud, gentle, invisible ink etc displayed as a list. In second case you need to find a picker with several effects and after you flick the desired effect you need to hit the send button. I have some sight left and from what I saw, this effects, especially full screen ones are really crazy andsightedfolks are gonna love it.

It still seems strange though because the first two, Bubbles and Scream are announced as 1 of 2 and 2 of 2, all the other ones are not announced this way and Bubbles says it's selected. I sent a message to my wife and double tapped on "Gentle", then after I did this "Gentle was gone from the list but Bubbles also still said "Selected". There then was a Sent button and I tapped it and Voiceover gave some sort of explanation, but when I went back to review the message it did not say anything. My wife whose 6S is not yet upgraded said it just says "sent with gentle effect" but I guess for the effects to actually show as intended it is not enough for the recipient to have iMessage, they must also be on iOS 10. Lastly, I discovered that if you swipe down on a message there is now a "Reaction" option part of the rotor, double tap on this and you can give the message a thumbs up, thumbs down, "HaHa" and some other stuff. I did this to her reply and it then said that I "liked" her message, seems to be similar to how you can react to posts of Facebook.

Otherwise, yes it just sends. I generally prefer to leave the motion off becaue it slows down performance with some apps so it's too bad there's not an easy way to turn it off and on while you send a message.

As soon as I lift my finger, the message is sent.

Turn off reduce motion in accessibility settings. Now, after you type your message, double tap and hold on the send button and the effects screen will pop up. I just tried this and it works beautifully. I sent a message and voiceover even announced the effect I had chosen. Now, if only there was a way to make digital touch features more accessible, like if someone sends you their heartbeat, it would be nice if VO could announce that. Obviously, it wouldn't be able to interpret a sketch or handwriting, but if it said sketch, heartbeat, tap, etc, at least then we'd have a better idea what was being sent.
