Hi, I have it on my laptop and iPad and I find the iPad version much better than the laptop version the latter is far too clunky whereas the iOS version seems to be more streamlined and so more user friendly > On 17 Apr 2020, at 13:03, Anders Holmberg wrote: > > Hi! > I’ll check it out. > /

Hi Anders, No, stuff is labeled, but the interface is very clunky, there’s no doubt about that. But when a phone call comes in, say from your flute teacher, you can just hit tab and then VO-Space to answer the call with voice only. I think you can just press Enter to answer with video, but I do

Hi! I just want to use it as for some flute lessons. So that might work then. Is there something to think about with VoiceOver? Are there a lot of unlabelled buttons. /A > 17 apr. 2020 kl. 13:45 skrev 'Donna Goodin' via MacVisionaries > : > > Hi Anders, > > I use Skype on the Mac pretty regula

Hi Anders, I use Skype on the Mac pretty regularly, and though it’s not my favorite app, it is usable. I don’t do anything fancy with it. I just use it to take phone calls. But it works for that. As for IOS, I have Skype on my phone, but don’t use it much, so someone else can probably give you

Vo+J is your friend when accessing chat history and when going from table to table. Also, keep in mind that when you're sitting in a chat window on skype, it won't make the sound to let you know a new message has come in. So you'll probably want to command+tab away from the application while wai

I actually think Skype is much better accessibility wise on the mac however I do admit to using the client on the other platform but require third party software in order for it to be fully accessible. not so on the mac. One nice feature in the mac client is the ability to use the system voice

Great, thanks. Hopefully the options I use will be in the menus, so I can assign my own keyboard shortcuts to them. Well, I'll find out soon. Still, I'm glad there are no major problems; I see Skype come up on here every so often, but never followed the conversations because I never used it befo

I use Skype on the Mac all the time. While there are no accessibility concerns, I would say that some of the command patterns are a little lugubrious, involving many keystrokes to accomplish seemingly simple action. Other than that, however, it is perfectly accessible in music, and as I said, I

I've had similar problems, it sounds like the touch tones send, but the system doesn't respond, and after entering several numbers, the touch tone feature no longer works. I don't know, originally I liked skype 5 better, but the more I use it, the more I'm seeing lots of small problems that when

Once you enter the dial pad, you will notice that the virtual keypad is layed out like a touch tone phone keypad. You just navigate to the digits you wish to press and use VO+space to press them. I have noticed, however, that with the latest versions of Skype, touch tones to seem to be lingeri
