Hi John

Indeed.  Before the iOS Kindle app became accessible, it was worse than the
Android equivalent in that, Android did everything but read the books.  Now
iOS has become so usable, we really need Android to step up, which I believe
it will eventually.

 Brill!


Kind regards,

Subject: [access-uk] different apps

Hi Jackie and list,
it is amazing how the same apps on iphone and android are different.
namely the shredder chess app on the iphone is really accessible but 
on android is just not usebale at all.
I really strugle to use the web on my android but find with the 
iphoneit's a much better experience.
I think Steve Nutt has done great with the android and for a totally 
blind person makes good use of it.
I love blind square and an example tomorrow is that my train does not 
stop at Morecambe so I must get off at lancaster.
because of for square I can look about to see what's in lancaster and 
call for a meal or a beer.
Grace will guide but with the satnav it is getting more usefull for us.
not got time now but wonder what people use on android for satnav.
I am shortly to acquire a second hand braille pen 12 so hope I can 
connect it to my android devices.
very interesting how things are turning out and as Ian said onhis 
very good post the reading experience is so much better now.
cheers then.
