A Suggestions API! Hell yeah! I’m actually excited for this. #WWDC23
So they basically brought nightstand mode from the Apple Watch to iOS. Cool I guess? #WWDC23
Is it just me, or does the name iOS 17 sound weird? #WWDC23
iPadOS powers the iPad?I would’ve never guessed. #WWDC23
Ooh! Interactive widgets! Probably not accessible, but that seems awesome! #WWDC23
Oh boy, so you’re making my iPad’s Lock Screen as inaccessible as my iPhone’s. How exciting. /s #WWDC23
And that, Is how you can make your Lock Screen inaccessible, with iPadOS17. #WWDC23
The health app? I just wanted a ducking calculator! #WWDC23
Oh my god these new PDF features are going to revolutionize PDF accessibility for blind people! I don’t even know if they realize how good this is going to be! #WWDC23
Really? I thought tvOS powers the Mac. Also, Sonoma? That’s an awesome OS name! #WWDC23
Oh great, macOS widgets hardly work with VO as it is, this is just gonna make it worse. #WWDC23
You are currently on your car keys. To start the car, press control, option, command, shift, space, period, delete. #WWDC23
Ooh! Auto-removal of trackers from URLs, and locking private tabs! I approve 1000%. #WWDC23
Web Apps? That’s cool, but just about a decade late. #WWDC23
“Craig plays guitar!” And also drums, and bass, I guess. #WWDC23
Adaptive audio seems really cool, but I definitely wouldn’t trust that, especially when traveling outside as a blind person. #WWDC23
Whenever I hear about a feature using on-device intelligence on an Apple device, I get immediately filled with dread, just because of how shitty Dictation has become. #WWDC23
Ooh, SharePlay in the car! I’ve needed this for years! That’s fucking awesome! #WWDC23
Locating the Siri Remote with my phone? I can’t count the number of times I’ve needed this, too! Hell yeah! #WWDC23
Oh my god, FaceTime on Apple TV! Weeeeeee! #WWDC23
watchOS! Let’s go! #WWDC23
So we now have cycling and cycle tracking. Can we say confusing yet? #WWDC23
I like the sound of a lot of these mental health features on the Watch. #WWDC23
Vision health? You mean the thing I have none of? #WWDC23
Give your child a tech device, so they’ll go outside more. Can we say oxymoron yet? #WWDC23
Oh no, here comes a new platform. #WWDC23
Hey, they said the word platform. Does that count? #WWDC23
Called it! New AR platform! #WWDC23
I wonder how not accessible Vision Pro is going to be? At least at first. #WWDC23
If done right, however, this could kill things like the Invision glasses. #WWDC23
I love how the audio description described the leg appearing in a forest. It made it sound like this severed leg just showed up out of nowhere. #WWDC23
Whoa, with the way they’re describing hand gestures, this could be entirely accessible! We may have found an invision glasses killer and so much more! #WWDC23
Lmao it used the old Siri sound! #WWDC23
Eyesight! Another thing I simply do not have. #WWDC23
Imagine AirBSI! #WWDC23
I’m all wet now! #WWDC23
“We studied thousands of heads!” I’m… sure you did. #WWDC23
Oh god, eye tracking is going to be such a bitch for those of us with Nystagmus. No, I want to type in the search field, not hit the back button! #WWDC23
I’ll have a computer on my head! #WWDC23
5 years from now, literally everyone will have these things. It’s gonna be the next iPhone. #WWDC23
Now this is a good target for SoundScape/OpenScape! #WWDC23
All iOS and iPadOS frameworks are ported? Okay, so there is hope for VoiceOver out of the gate. #WWDC23
Each time “We’ve been preparing for this for years” is said = $1000 more on the price tag. #WWDC23
Okay… but what about accessibility features? #WWDC23
Five! Thousand! patents! Holy fuck! #WWDC23
$3500! As a start! Holy! Shit! I was way off. I guessed $2000.
@TheQuinbox But think of how much fun we could have! It shows your eyes when you look at someone. You and I would be walking around, our eyes randomly popping in and out of existence as they happen to make brief contact with someone.
@TheQuinbox I guessed 8. I'm genuinely surprised its not way more.
@TheQuinbox I'm surprised the price was where it is. I was expecting it to be somewhere in the five or six thousand dollar range.
@TheQuinbox As unfeasible as it is with that price… If I could somehow swing it… Definitely thinking about it. It has head tracking, and we could use that.
