I wonder if it is because IOS doesn't need the work? It is part of the architecture rather than an add-on.

Yaa, android isn't perfect; just a suggestion. I think it will be
really great within a few years as well, as they've got some good
folks working for them on this issue (T.V. Raman, if I recall), and
most of the major research groups nationwide are focusing their
attention on droid, as opposed to iOS.

Apple product you really should have a Mac. Time to ask Santa.

Too bad it is so difficult on Windows, as I do not have the money to
shell out for even a cheap Mac. I was hoping to offer some accessible
games for the iTouch line, namely card games and other simple games
that most sighted people take for granted but that are hard to get in
an accessible version, especially for the iOS platform.

development environment makes it accessible. I saw a post where someone
made the interface builder more accessible so you might want to search the
archive from this list. I just have not had time to mess with Xcode
lately.
I think Susan sent the email so if you search probably for susan and
interface builder you will get the mail.

Hi all,
What is the status of being able to develop iOS apps if one is blind?
Uses Windows instead of MacOS? Thanks.
