Simple is not synonymous with dumbed-down. We are at a time in software evolution where it makes sense to re-skin things by providing a different interface that is more convenient for some. This time, we spoke with Chad Bouton of @20200Hindsight. Thanks a lot, Chad!

Reflections from @Mosen for #GAAD: "...equality includes the right to offer constructive criticism about where you are falling short." Very well said! Constructive criticism is also the only way to actually improve the product. Thank you, dear community, for your feedback!

Reflections for Global #Accessibility Awareness Day #GAAD: Our past success wasn’t inevitable, our future success is not guaranteed https://t.co/4ov8CWJYE0

Although we have nearly 20 audio-first apps, the most popular ones are those from the entertainment category: audiobooks, podcasts, and news. That does not surprise us, but we are still pinning our hopes on other apps as well 🤓

@getstarkco @ericwbailey Thank you. I have long puzzled over how better to say "below" and this article gives some good examples.

Adding a note to yourself in @Voxmateapp is as quick as tapping twice and holding a finger on the screen in a main menu while recording a note. As soon as you lift your finger, the note is saved in the Notes app.

Three interactive tutorials will help you get started with Voxmate. First, go through the basic gestures. Quick and easy. Then learn how to talk to Voxmate and play games. And finally, go to the Editor and Keyboard Playzone, and practice using the editor as much as you want.

@jackf723 @devinprater @mikolysz @aaron_h2002 @BryanSmart @seeingwithsound Voxmate apps, dev tools and UI libraries are going to be open source. As for Voxmate itself, we don't know yet.

[Voxmate @voxmateapp]

@jackf723 @devinprater @aaron_h2002 @BryanSmart @seeingwithsound Perf is very important to us, especially since Voxmate Apps are written in TS / JS.

If you are thinking of switching from iOS to Android, or are just curious about how good accessibility is on Android, you might be interested in this recording of our webinar with @BlindDroidUsers. Happy watching!

@ChanceyFleet Sure, sighted people get like this for fonts. Sometimes I (Katja) can not even start typing my text if I do not have the right font set. I guess it's all about comfort and safety for me. Strange, now that I think about it.
