Hey there,
I can vouch for this app. It's the greatest thing I've come across since
I started using Android on my Galaxy s3, as long as four years ago...
It'll be interesting to know whether it works on your device as well.
Get an apk from Daniel, and keep us posted...
Ciao,
Ollie

Shoot me an email off list if you want a trial apk. You'll at least be
able to test it out on your device without google play for a month or
two and see if it actually works first.

Will your program and brltty work on the Kindle Fire; i have the 5th
generation. Brltty is not available from the Amazon's app store but
I know I can also use the google play store with some modifications
to my settings. I do have the braille program that is available from
the Amazon store but haven't gotten around to use it because I heard
that its use is rather limited. Unfortunately kindle books can't be
read with braille on the Fire as they can be on iOS, or that's what
I understand anyway. But that isn't the only thing I use the Fire to do.
As for accessibility I am mostly pleased with my Kindle Fire but the
touch seems to be slightly different than in iOS devices and I tend
to be slower with it especially when entering addresses in the silk
browser. But that doesn't keep me from using it.

Hi Shérab,
Thanks for checking it out. I am blind myself and use BRLTTY actually.
I think Android accessibility has come a long way over the years
and is very good nowadays. I don't really use IOS, but the main
thing I notice is probably that Android isn't as strong on the web
browsing front as IOS. Web browsing is still definitely possible,
but maybe not as comfortably as on IOS.
Otherwise, I haven't had any issues. I'd just say to stick to a
device with the latest Android version - accessibility is better
in the later versions of Android. The Google phones are quite good
and Samsung aren't bad (I use a Samsung), but some vendors modify
the operating system quite a bit, so better to stick with a device
running a raw Android where possible.
Hope that helps.
Cheers,
Daniel

Dear Daniel,
Many thanks for sharing this, it's great news.
Are you blind yourself? What do you think about Android's
accessibility
as compared to iOS accessibility?
Thanks,
Shérab.
