I think since I still have a 4S for now and won't get out in the
rush for
the new next week that I may for the first time hold off on the

Usually I grab it he first day last year it was four days due to
circumstances beyond my control but sounds like I need to upgrade
my phone
first and that probably won't happen for a few more weeks, I am
eligible
through Verizon, have been for over a month now but...
Then again, who knows, I may go for it anyway but at this moment I
am of the
opinion that I need the newer phone first. Which one, I don't
know, screen
size is of no matter to me but camera stability is, since I have to
use the
phone to identify a lot now.

Subject: Re: overview of accessibility features in iOS 8
Are you willing to comment as to whether version 8 is not very usable
with these bugs or not? I'm one of these who wants to install new
things asap regardless of the consequences. However, if it is so buggy
that it's hard to use then I won't. The problems which people
complained about last year didn't bother me to much if that says
anything.

A very positive article, what it unfortunately does not mention is
that
iOS
8 at this time (the Goldmaster or release version) has the most
Voiceover
issues of any release and some of these are not just little things
like
Voiceover saying "Screen Locked" twice which it did for a long
time after
iOS 7 was released.
I have been running the iOS 8 Beta since June and as far as I can tell
Apple
has listened to hardly any of the feedback and bug reports provided by
blind
beta testers. There have been 5 Beta versions and now the
Goldmaster and
almost all of the most serious and annoying bugs are still there.
I hope
that they react faster once the public release happens next
Wednesday and
hopefully blind people start flooding Apple Accessibility with
emails and
phone calls about these issues.
I will post a list of the 5 or so bugs which bug me the most and
which I
know other beta testers have reported as soon as the iOS 8 update
comes
out.
Anybody who wants to read about them just look for a post on
Wednesday,
September 17 with subject "The top 5 most annoying bugs in iOS 8 with
Voiceover".
What bothers me is that a few of these issues are not specifically
accessibility related and they don't happen if Voiceover is not
running
but
as soon as Voiceover is on you suddenly are plagued by this and that.

Sieghard
