Hi Ibrahim,
It is, and it allows you to have bigger messaging groups than WhatsApp as well.
I wish they’d also put WhatsApp on though, because many sighted people use
WhatsApp.
It’s good though.
All the best
Steve

Hi
Telegram is a peer-to-peer encrypted messaging system which is open source, it
enables you to make voice and video calls, send and receive text messages,
voice messages, photos and other media a bit like WhatsApp. I don’t use it
either, so I can’t vouch for accessibility or usability however I am of the
understanding it is quite popular within the VI community. I hope this answers
your question.

Subject: [access-uk] Exciting update for Blindshell Classic owners
Hi a ll,
Sorry about the cross posting, but there is a rather exciting update for all
Blindshell Classic owners.
It now has an Internet web browser. I have checked this out, and it really is
quite efficient. You can use numbered shortcuts to go to different elements
for example, such as pressing 1 gets you to default navigation level, every
element, 2 is for headings, etc. Then you just use the left/right buttons to
move by that element as usual. It also has history, bookmarks, search, etc.
For those wishing to check this out, go to Blindshell Classic Settings, then
Blindshell Update, then Check For Updates.
It also now supports the Telegram messaging app and a card game which I have
never heard of.
If you don't have one of these phones yet, you can find details here:-
https://www.comproom.co.uk/product/blindshell-classic-talking-mo bile-phone/
Note that the Classic Light doesn't support the web browser, in fact, it has no
Internet features at all.
Finally, may we take this opportunity to wish you all a wonderful Holiday
season and thank you all for your support throughout this challenging year.
Finally, we will be closed from 1 PM on 24 December 2020, to 9 AM on 4 January
2021.
All the very best to you all
