Article recapping Braille improvements on IOS 18

Important heads-up re updating to IOS 18

Hi all, I just wanted to make everyone aware of a problem I encountered when I updated to IOS 18. The update appeared to go off without a hitch, until I had to enter my Pass code. Voiceover did not speak any of the numbers in the number pad. I tried turning VO on and off, and restarting my p

Such strong feelings about podcasts. Some of the best podcasts describing these features have transcripts. Read these transcripts and wow, you get the information you need. https://www.livingblindfully.com/lb0300transcript/ Smiles from Texas, On Mon, Sep 16, 2024 at 7:09 AM 'Donna Goodin' via M

Hi Donna, I ran into the same problem when helping my girlfriend restore from a back up. The verification code area was not accessible either. I haven't made it a chance to write to Apple accessibility but maybe it's something actual point out to them. And this happened on an iPhone 15+. > On S

Re: Important heads-up re updating to IOS 18

Hi Joseph, I did send it off to Apple accessibility this afternoon. I figure all the accessibility improvements in the world aren’t worth much if you end up blocked out of your phone. Anyway, as we all know the more people report these bugs the more likely they are to be fixed. So if you can,

Re: Important heads-up re updating to IOS 18

Hi all, Just by way of follow up, after I’ve gotten my phone booted up, and all was well, I restarted it, to see if the problem persisted every time I had to enter my password. It does not. The only problem is the initial unlocking of your phone after the update. Cheers, Donna Sent from my iPho

Re: Amazon

Hi Lorie, After following a link to buy an Amazon Book, I find the only way to get to the Buy button is to press the Tab key a few times. Once focus is on the button, VO and Left Cursor allows me to confirm the price. Ian Sent from my iPhone because my MacBook is very poorly! > On 16 Sep 2024
