Luna nic nie rozumie tylko cały czas wybiera nr na al taxi, gówno jedynka była super ten telefon to jakieś badziewie😅.
Co to za gówno 😂
I have tried this. But it was not giving me voice feedback regarding the obstacles.
Wow..
Well done.
I can't find it on Google PlayStore
Hi! Thanks for featuring our game! I wanted to point out Brailliance does support braille screen input. To the left of the keyboard is a "native keyboard" field that accepts any input you have. I've used it with the iOS braille screen input and various perkins devices. It can be a little specific in its set up - for instance, my Focus 40 only passes keypresses in 8-dot mode - but it's a fun way to play and test your perkins.
One final thing - as of yesterday, we fixed the bug where the number of letters in a word wasn't passed to screen readers. Hope that helps!
Thanks so much for flagging, this is fantastic to hear and we’ll mention this in our next episode. Keep up the great work. - David
Check out the Dclock app, which allows you to have a customizable clock widget on your iPad home screen. The app offers various color, animation, and font options, making it useful for those with low vision. apps.apple.com/ie/app/dclock-digital-flip-clock/id1525347157
I wonder if I can leave in my car and im 400 miles away. And someone else is driving my car. Will it track where my car is
App name ?
Hi👋 The app is called Clew. You can download on IOS here. apps.apple.com/ie/app/clew/id1268077870 - David
App name ?
re: Meta Ray-Ban glasses. They do accommodate prescription lens, but be aware that not all prescriptions can be accommodated by the Meta Ray-Ban frames. In general, strong prescriptions that make for heftier lens are not accomodated. On eother thing to consider, especially if you have a face shape for which fitting glasses is challenging, that there are limitations on the degree to which these frames can be adjusted. Molded frames such as these are generally adjusted by heating up the frame ande bending them. This cannot be done with the Meta Ray-Ban frames due to the electronics in the frames. Make sure you get the best size for your head. Aftre that all you can do is tweak the bridge with pads.
Hi Joe Could you help me with which version of the Vesync app you are using. On my application, the machines do not start, you have to go there and press the button. thank you for your help
I was using the most recent version of the app at the time which was 5.1.80, on Some cosori air fryers like the dual blaze you have to confirm on device, this is due to EU safety regulations, maybe put a bump on that button. other option is to make sure you have the most recent firmware on the device, but it’s most likely a safety parameter on your device. - Joe
Great content too btw
Just wondering if tile can only be located if a passerby has the tile app? Same question for the air tag and samsung trackers? I think with the two alternatives the unknowing passerby only needs to have an apple device or samsung device with those two, but i may be mistaken.
Yes you’re correct. The tile network is mainly made up of those using the tile app, so the network is much bigger with the likes of AirTags. - David
Really helpful and informative. Thanks guys.
Thanks Nicky, glad you enjoyed it. - David
How is someone who is vision impacted is going to know where and what the camera is looking?
Great question. Right now with the current state of the Rabbit that is quite challenging, although to be fair it’s able to read from a good distance. What many smart phone apps do is they will detect an object such as a page, and guide the user to frame their shot. A screen reader may say “move left” or “move up” for example. As discussed in the video the rabbit needs a lot of work, but the potential is there if it was given some accessibility features. Thanks for the great question👍 - David
The Rabbit r1 is an AI device that has the capability to read documents and could be a useful tool for people with sight loss. However, the device has lots of issues, and currently doesn’t have a screen reader. Will Rabbit be accessible one day? What do you think?
Voice of lreland in the GAA powerful man; unbelievable 👏 talent. Deepest sympathy to the family and friends 🙏 Will be sadly missed 😢
Nice Video!
Good vidio chaps.

Hi there, Can I control it distantly from my office for example ( press start button from phone and start cooking some eggs that I prepared in the morning) arrive home in 15 minutes and they are ready? Or I have to be near the device?
As far as we can tell you can control it completely remotely as you described. Not sure how safe it would be but it is possible☺️ David
cool video. have the cosori pro3 dual blaze smart air fryer. used with my echo dot and alexa voice commands. once you get it connected to wifi, everything is cool. completely blind user here.yep.
Is the app accessible with TalkBack on Android? I really want an accessible Air Fryer, but if the app doesn't work with TalkBack, it's a deal-breaker.
Sorry if I missed this, but what is the name of the app?
No worries at all☺️ the app is called VeSync, spelt V E S Y N C. Hope this helps. David
Please make the video full review about this air fryer.
I want one! Is is only available in the UK?
Hey👋 Thanks for the comment. We are based in Ireland and I know many people here who have one, it is also available in the UK as you said. When ordering over the phone Cobolt did offer to fit with a European 2 pin plug so I’m assuming it can be shipped to at least some parts of the EU. Not too sure of current story with North/south America, Asia, Oceania or Middle East. Where are you looking to get it from and we can check for you. While waiting be sure to check out our full review on the Vision Ireland website, or you can listen to an unboxing and first impressions on our Talking Technology podcast. David
I’m from the US so I wondered if I could get one here.
I checked in with Cobolt who make this product and unfortunately they don’t ship to the USA. In order to sell in the states they’d need certain safety certificates which they don’t currently have. Not the answer you’re looking for sadly, but hopefully it answers your questions at least. David
"It's big and it's thin." Thanks God lads, you're talking about iPad...
All about iPads, we promise☺️ hope your keeping well Vy

Fantastic presentation!
Many thanks Daniel.

Too bad it isn't yet in the Android version of the app.

Two things here: 1) this app looks really promising and I appreciate someone with low vision designing an app for people with low vision rather than assistive technology companies simply guessing what the needs are for people they serve, and 2) iOS absolutely does not have better accessibility tools! My personal device is an Android and my work is an iOS device and I can definitively say after many, many, years of use that iOS is a freaking joke. I mean, I'm glad that this app is landing at iOS because it desperately needs help with its accessibility features. However, when it says in this video that iOS "is just better" when it comes to accessibility, it really disparages anything else that is asserted in this video because this person clearly has no freaking idea what they're talking about. When they then go on to say how great this new app is, it makes me think they continue to not know what they're talking about. I guess I'll just have to wait until it lands in Android to actually make up my own mind. Hopefully it comes to Android soon.
I’d argue that from a screen reader standpoint IOS was and still is ahead. Android has apps like reading mode ETC, but IOS compensated by having apps like Seeing AI. It’s getting more even now for sure but traditionally I think iOS was ahead. I think ultimately it depends on your vision Level. Some high end androids have better cameras for magnification and so on. It’s personal preference. iOS accessibility certainly isn’t a joke, but you might need to customise things to your preferences.
Great show. I actually love the Back to the Future films. I made a video "Fight for Ourselves" with Spandau Ballet in 1986 and it was a London twist on the films.
Shouldn’t have cancelled Apple Music, you still had 1 month free trial left!
Usually when you cancel a free trial you still have access to it up until the renewal date. That’s not the case with Apple Music unfortunately, but I’m a RUclips music fan anyway☺️ David
Great job
What is her nationnality ?
Great to hear that... and the same for the Be my eyes. However... both exclusive for Iphone. I'm just a humble android user. I guess I'll have to wait a bit longer
We had the Be My Eyes folks on the podcast recently and they said they are working on Be My AI for Android. Hopefully you won’t have long to wait☺️ (David)
