There was something posted to another list I am on, something from Jonathan
Moes, would you can read in it's entirety on his blog. at You will activate
voiceover with three presses of the power button instead of the home button.
And there is a VoiceOver mode and the ability to tell the face identification
not to worry about whether you are a "paying attention". So it sounds like
there won't be any problem for blind folks. But why anybody wants to spend that
much money on a phone that offers nothing for visually impaired people beyond
what the eight and 8+ offer is quite beyond me. I know I'm not going to do it.

Everybdoy, let's count!
1, 3G, 3Gs, 4, 4s, 5, 5s, 6, 6s, SE, 7, 7s, 8, 8s, X (I mean 10) ... Hey,
these numbers are screwy.
And as others have said, what's everybody got against 9 anyway?

No, the 8 and 8+ are coming out but the 10 is also coming out this year. So
we don't have to get through the 8 and 9 first.

I think maybe we got to get through the iPhone eight and nine before we
worry about 10.

I don't like that you can just touch your Iphone 10 and It will
unlock, that doesn't sound safe at all. I think for sighted people,
face recognition will be very useful, but for us blind people, I
didn't hear anything that made me go wow. I think It sounds ok, but my
Iphone 6S does everything I need. The 256 Ram is a very good thing,
but that already was in the Iphone 7.

Just did a quick read of some articles, and of course they’re not saying
what the alternatives are, like how you could always use a passcode or not
have a lock on your phone, also no indication of how a really visual
technologywill work for us. My favourite line in one of the articles was,
keep your snazzy new iPhone away from your evil twin.

maybe nobody on here knows the answer to this yet. If the iPhone 10 uses
face ID but only works if your eyes aren't closed and you are looking at
it, will quite a few of us who are totally blind still be able to use it?
