Hi David,

 

Not new gestures, but there are new things.  For example, notifications can
be accessed directly from the lock screen now.  More iOS-like.  Also web
views are very much fixed.  Any app with an embedded browser seems to work
now.

 

All; the best

 

Steve

Thanks for this Steve.
However I am intrigued by the reference to new Lollipop android Gestures.

All I have seen on new Accessibility features in Lollipop is on
http://www.androidcentral.com/accessibility-features-android-50-lollipop

Are there new gestures which are not included on this page?

Hi all,

 

I am due to do an Android presentation tomorrow for the Kent Association For
The Blind.

 

In researching Android help, I found that the web site
http://accessibleandroid.wordpress.com written by my good friend and CoHost
of That Android Show, Ana, has been significantly updated.

 

It is not updated enough to include the new Lollipop gestures, but it is
pretty good.  I wholeheartedly recommend it for anyone who is remotely
interested in the accessibility services in Android.

 

I notice it doesn't really document Brailleback, but we'll see if we can put
that right in the coming months.

 

All the best

 

Steve
