Hi, I just updated and found the speaker button easy to find. I did have one
interesting thing happen. I tapped the speaker button as someone was
speaking, and for a tiny fraction of time, the volume spiked so that there
was a very loud sound of that person speaking. This may simply have been an
aboration, but at least I found the button easy to find.

Hi Sieghard, 





In the last version, I understood from another source that the speaker and
end button were not easy to find. Were you able to have easy access to these
buttons? I'm interested to hear what you have found.





Thank!.

Hello List,

 

There is a Skype update this morning, version 4.13. Here is what is listed
as What's New:

 

A refreshed look and feel for iOS 7

Accessibility improvements

General fixes and speed improvements

 

I installed the update and one of the first things I usually make sure of is
to check if the DialPad works properly. To my delight it is now possible to
dial a phone number in Skype using touch typing just as you can do in the
Phone App. This has never worked before and, for that matter, is not working
in other VoIP app I have tried.

If you dial a wrong number and touch delete it also works as a touch typing
key, but it does ntot speak the number you just deleted, it just makes a
click so there is still room for improvement and I'll send a message for
sure to point out some of these things, but also to thank them for the great
accessibility which has been part of Skype now for some time and apparently
continues to be a focus for them.

 

I did, however, also test the DialPad during a call by calling my credit
card company and here one still has to double or split tap the numbers.
Hopefully touch typing will also be implemented here in a future update as
it would certainly make entering numbers easier and faster.

 

Apart from that I have not noticed any other issues whatsoever. You can also
use the flick up or down gesture (Action Rotor) to delete entries in the
Recent tab, e.g. a phone call or text chat.

 

 

Regards,

Sieghard
