Hi, Here are a couple of suggestions to get them started. The accessibility programming guide for iOS: http://developer.apple.com/library/ios/#documentation/UserExperience/Concept ual/iPhoneAccessibility/Making_Application_Accessible/Making_Application_Acc essible.html
Also Matt Gemmell's article: http://mattgemmell.com/2010/12/19/accessibility-for-iphone-and-ipad-apps/ There is also a video demonstrating how to create accessible iPhone apps on iTunes You, but I can't remember what its called right now. I am sure a search of iTunes You will turn it up, quite easily. Hope this helps, Brett. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of goshawk on horseback Sent: Friday, 16 November 2012 2:09 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: guides and grants for app accessability? I don't think they were very aware of access issues, until I contacted them, so no, they haven't contacted any VI groups. as I think I may have mentioned, now that they have been made aware, and are interested, I think they genuinely don't know where to start, which is why I decided to send my original message out, to give them that information, as they are interested, and did get back to me.

Have the developers approach some of the consumer groups from the blindness community. Also, have them consider Kickstarter. The draw of making things accessible for blind people may be enough to loosen some wallets.--Joe -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Woody Anna Dresner Sent: Thursday, November 15, 2012 4:33 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: guides and grants for app accessability?
