iOS and iPadOS
Hello,
Speaker assistant 1.8 is now available for iPhone, iPad, Apple Watch, Mac and Apple vision Pro.
For iPhone version there is a new feature that would be interesting for blind speakers.
In addition to fixing some bugs and providing more customization options, a revolutionary new feature has been introduced:
Hello,
My last app is available for iPhone, iPad, Apple Watch and Mac. It is the Speaker assistant. A tool to help you when you are presenting something or when you are in a speech.
Here is the link for the AppStore
And here is the description for the AppStore:
This is kind of a follow-up to my post earlier about direct touch and VoiceOver not speaking words.
I'm noticing now that if autocorrect has to jump in, then it's not speaking the words and it's just saying space. If I get the letters exactly right, then it'll read the word correctly, which makes me wonder if there's a new setting somewhere I'm missing to make sure VoiceOver will speak autocorrections out loud.
Note: It is not under spoken content; I've already tried this.
We have created an app for listening to email called Speaking Email. We think this would be useful for blind users.
I would be grateful for any feedback on what changes we might need to make so it works better for blind people. It is a paid app so if you would like a free copy you are welcome to email me for a promo code on [email protected]
Hello everybody. Just curious, what speed do you have in the speaking rate? Mine is at 60%.
For iOS, iPad, and for any Mac, Apple TV, and Homepod users, what accessibility changes do you want to see in the next update? I'm going to send this post to Apple's accessibility division.
Alright, so maybe I am getting old, but I recall in iOS 10, and I was pretty sure in iOS 11 too, but when the onscreen keyboard pops up, if you perform a long press on a letter, or even on an emogy, you typically get access to special characters. For example, for French users, if you wanted to type in a "É" or "à ", you would simply long press on the "e" or "a" and a list of special characters would pop up. I also believe that this was the same action to access alternative versions of an emogy.
Hello!
As someone who plans to enter university this autumn, I've been thinking more seriously about my independence and the tools that could be useful to me in my everyday life.
If anyone out there's a Spectrum subscriber, we have a Disney plus basic subscription offered at no cost. However here's where things get interesting and inaccessible. I started on the mac. I then did the same steps written below on the phone which was where the get disney plus button was visible. After clicking the activate link, I'm taken to the disney plus website. After the email is entered, the only button shown by Voice over is log in. Of course, how do you when you can't create the account? so after cooling off the Irish rage, I went on the phone.
Does anyone else stream content from spectrum tv? because out of nowhere, using the latest version, it suddenly reads out what I think are either closed captions or subtitles Either way it's completely makingme crazy. I don't have closed captions on andI can turn speech off but I shouldn't have too. Has anyone else has this weird behavior? I checked and the last update was maybe a week back or so.
Hello,
I am the developer of the app Speech Central. It was nominated for the best accessible app in 2017 on AppleVis: https://www.applevis.com/blog/closed-cast-your-votes-now-applevis-golden-apples-2017
I had a great feedback and help in this forum for improving my text to speech app Speech Central.
Hello everyone, overnight my Speech Central app updated to the latest version. Now it runs much slower, consumes a lot more battery, and I've noticed that the device heats up significantly during app usage. I have an iPhone 14 with the latest iOS system update. Additionally, since I use eSpeak NG as the text-to-speech synthesis, the app reads text with an English accent (my native language is Serbian), even though in the VoiceOver settings, I have configured it not to change the accent when reading another language.
Hello, I configured Speech central to use the API key for Microsoft Azure voices. What happens if I import a Word document which has several language tags correctly inserted? Will the voice - particularly multilingual voices - respect language tags or will it recognize the language by itself ignoring the tags?
Hello, on app store i found a speech central pro, which is 9,99 eur. What is diferences between speech central and this pro version?
Being nominated as the best accessible iOS app in 2017 by AppleVis is a great honor, but also brings a great responsibility to further improve the app and be even better in 2018.
I would like first to express the gratitude to this great community for the feedback that it has provided in my initial post (https://www.applevis.com/forum/ios-ios-app-discussion/introducing-speech-central-interactive-web-go-and-would-welcome) regarding my app Speech Central, which is available at the App Store: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/speech-central-web-text-to/id11
Hi
How can I back up my entire Speech Central library? I have a large book library and want to make sure I will not lose any of the content.
Thanks for any advice.
