Hello Jackie, I find the BIO app great. And I am worried the update may not be
accessible.

Hi Jackie, folk,
It's strange (or perhaps not) that before Jackie wrote of this I always
felt a bit iffy about say listening to their Live Events and those there
talking who are not at all VI like that they know/knew everything about
using apps and equipment as if they were blind!
I know there is at least one trainer in there who is blind and a couple
partial.
I don't listen very much to all of those Events nowadays as I don't
always feel it's authenticity if you get my drift.
I like the RNIB Connect radio's Tecch Talk where the two main presenters
are totals and incidentally good fun too!

Hi Jackie, I would totally agree that a low vision user of voiceover should
be testing these Apps and not someone that can see the screen.

Jackie, your right to be concerned, we will soon find out as the bank of
ireland is due out on the app store very soon, my wife got a notice to look
out for it in a few days, but she is a android user, but the iPhone users
should be soon as well.
cheers

Hey all.===========================================================
Perhaps I'm over reacting but i've been told now for the second time NCBI
are testing apps for accessibility. They have tested the CoronaVirus app
for the HSE and they have also tested the bank of Ireland app. I'm
wondering who in NCBI are testing this app, is it a sighted person using a
screen reader or is it a voiceover user testing it.
I would hope a VO or talk back user is the ones testing it as they would
pick up more compared to seeing the screen and swiping.
I'm feeling very uncomfortable with this.
