This thing of handoff sound very usable. Even though this direct touch,
doesn't sound so good. I mean, if it is like a regular keyboard, but just
guessing where could be the keys, is like typing in regular touch typing,
because if we touch a key, using touch typing,  and leave out our finger,
that key is goint to type a letter any way.

Of course, guessing.

I can get Handoff to work as far as phone calls and hopefully sms messages
when it becomes available but that's as far as it goes with me since I have
a 4s and so no Airdrop either which Handoff seems to be based on. My
favourite features are the new direct touch typing mode and Braille Screen
Input. Makes typing less of a chore now. I also love the new Alex voice but
can only get that on my iPad Mini of course.

I tried and tried to turn over a new leaf.

I got crumpled wads of tear-stained paper

thrown in the trash!

Then God gave me a new heart and life:

His joy for my despairing tears!

And now, every day:

"This I call to mind,

and therefore I have hope:

The steadfast love of the Lord

never ceases;

his mercies never come to an end;

they are new every morning;

great is your faithfulness."

(Lamentations 3:21-23 ESV)

Isn't it strange how when a new Ios comes out we always focus on the
negative stuff about it? It makes me wonder how many posts there are about
the Ios features compared to how many posts complaining about the bugs?

Hi Pablo,

 

There are also at least 2 or 3 Podcasts on Applevis which are about iOS 8
accessibility and iOS 8 bugs. If you have a Podcast client I highly
recommend you subscribe to the Applevis podcast, you can set it to not
download any Podcasts, but this way you get to see what they release and you
can either stream or download any podcasts  you want to listen to.

 

Furthermore, Jonathan Mosen has just finished a presentation on the
Accessible World Tech Talk. I have pasted his email letting the list know
about it below so you can go and listen to a recording of his presentation.
Anyhow, in short, iOS 8 has some neat new features and some even neater new
bugs. Knowing your reaction after iOS 6 and iOS 7 came out, I think your
decision to stay with iOS 7.1.2 is a good one. Wait until iOS 8.0.1 comes
out and see what fixes are reported on the Viphone list and on Applevis and
then you can see if you want to upgrade or wait a bit longer for more fixes
to happen. Anyhow, here is Jonathan's message:

 

Hi everyone,

on Monday 22 September at 8 PM Eastern US time, I'll be giving a Tek Talk
presentation on the free Accessible World chat site about iOS 8. I'll
discuss some of the new features in iOS 8 and demonstrate their use, as well
as look at the high number of significant bugs in iOS 8 and their
implications.

There'll also be plenty of time for you to share your own experiences with
iOS 8 and ask questions.

If you're not available to attend the event live, a download will be made
available after the event.

You can visit  <http://accessibleworld.org/> http://accessibleWorld.org and
navigate to the Pat Price Tek Talk Training Room. Alternatively,
<http://conference321.com/masteradmin/room.asp?id=rsc9613dc89eb2> head over
directly to the conference room by choosing this link.

I'm looking forward to sharing some info with you and to an informative
discussion afterwards.

Subject: IOs 8 release and accessibility.

 

Hello all.

Days ago, I saw an email, talking about the new things related with the
accessibility in IOs 8.

But I have found around 395 emails with the same subject talking about this
topic, and I am reading many things, but no about the new things related
with accessibility on IOs 8.

Any body knows where can I read something about this?

Thanks in advance.

Pablo
