Hi Nickus,
If I can just bring us away from phones, as the same issue applies with
certain manufacturers of great music technology.
Certain companies just don't want to have to take on the extra expense
required to make their products accessible. The Kontakt player would take
most of the musicians and producers projects on this forum to the next level
of professionalism, and as for the East West Quantum Leap Music software
well, just check out the YouTube clip below...

Subject: [ddots-l] Application accessibility campaining
Hi all, i was wondering if any of you go to the effort of contacting 3rd
party application manufacturers to raise the issue of accessibility? E.g. If
you like a app and want to use it but find that it's not accessible, would
you contact the maker and complain or just leave it and accept that you
can't use the cool app. Well i am the type of person who will contact them
and make them aware of screen readers and accessibility so i was thinking,
if more of you also do it we should ask Codefactory to compile a doccument
outlining the requirements for a application to be accessible with Mobile
speak. If a doccument like this is available it would make contacting and
explaining to these companies a lot easayer and i think those who's not
contacting these companies now, will start doing it once it's easayer. I
would like to hear your views on this, we are very lucky to have screen
readers like MS with very little short comings on the phone platforms
however there's a short coming with 3rd party apps and with the mobile world
moving over to the use of more and more 3rd party apps, it's impossible for
MS to keep up to date so I think it's time we start helping them, by helping
them we'll also help our selves.
