Thank you, @Twitterrific, for being amazing. The devs always kept a focus on accessibility, making use of the actions rotor, magic tap, and other VoiceOver features in ways that made my Twitter experience a joy. I'll miss the app, and I wish everyone at Iconfactory the very best.

Away to the Windows* they flew like a flash, opening up bookmarks, and refreshing the cache. The loading screen glowed like the fresh fallen snow, and they leapt up with joy, "A new Tech Connect video!" https://t.co/qhhCjprsvL

@thebigr The brand they got me is called MEATER

It appears Google broke the latest build of YouTube for voiceover users. On home tab, double tapping a short doesn’t play it and you can only swipe through the first page or so of videos and then it immediately wraps to the top.

#l is it possible to include talkback audio while screen recording on an android phone? I can’t seem to get it to work

[Cory Ballard @coryballard]

@RangerStation @LiamErven @ke7zum I have been trying this for months with a lightning to HDMI adapter coupled with OBS and can never get it to work. I am pretty sure it relates to resolution differences between source and destination.

@blindbargains Here’s a video from a really good smart home YouTuber that talks about a number of doorbells with audio included https://t.co/9dut7Lpn5Q

N just got a new shield pro and wanted to know if it is possible to turn talkback on during set up?

[Cory Ballard @coryballard]

I have a word document that I would like converted into an accessible fillable PDF. Any suggestions on agencies who can do this?

Yo Apple. Revoking Siri access to checking voice- and email without user consent was not ethical. Seniors and disabled folks who, sometimes through great effort, learned to trust these features are suddenly less able to communicate. Want people to rely on your tech? Be reliable.

@kevinrj That’s for iOS? I didn’t think so

[Cory Ballard @coryballard]

Doing a presentation tomorrow on accessible iOS games and want to know everyone’s favorite.

[Cory Ballard @coryballard]

T does anyone have a recommendation on a smart lock that has an app that is completely accessible with voiceover on iOS?

[Cory Ballard @coryballard]

Out of the blue today, voiceover on the Apple TV will no longer allow me to navigate up and down but only allow me to move right and left. Direct touch and follow focus are no longer in the rotor but when changed in accessibility settings, nothing happens. Anyone have any ideas?

[Cory Ballard @coryballard]

@technolass @StephenGuerraMN Thanks. It is not my primary phone so I will try a reset tomorrow.

[Cory Ballard @coryballard]

Updated my Google pixel to android 11 and I am experiencing gesture issues with talkback. Specifically the single finger double tap and swipe gestures. They do not seem to register at all. Anyone else?
