Hi, well said, and just to add to this. I also mention that they can
easily enable voice over by going to Settings > General > Accessibility
> Voice Over and I give a brief description of how the gestures are
different when it's enabled vs when a sighted person uses it. I don't go
into full details of it because too much information can be
overwhelming, but I do mention tapping an icon once will speak it
instead of activate it, and double-tapping right after will activate it.

Hi Christina,
I am not aware of such a letter, but it really isn’t hard to start a
dialogue with a developer. I have done so many times and typically just
start out by explaining that I am a blind user of an iPhone 4S and that
because of Apple’s commitment to Accessibility along with the lack of
other fully accessible devices the iPhone and iDevices in general have
become the smartphone of choice in the visually impaired community. I
also usually mention Viphone which now has over 1,300 members and then I
just explain that I have installed said developer’s app and find it is
hard to use because of unlabeled buttons or whatever other Voiceover
issues there may be. If it is something that I think could benefit
others I mention that as a developer may be more interested in improving
accessibility if he can get some sales out of it.

*Subject:* Form lette to iOS developers
Hi all,
Is there some sort of form letter floating around I can slightly edit
for the situation to send to iOS developers who's apps are not
accessible? I am using the Cozi web interface for our family calendar
but the iOS app is not accessible. I have no idea how to persuade them
to consider making the app VO accessible.
Thanks so much,
Sent from Christina's iMac :)
