TapType is out.

@fireborn Yep, I was so excited about it that I sent off that reply before I finished reading it and so I missed your Flicktype reference. Thanks for developing it.
@DavidGoldfield @fireborn For iPhone, there was another similar called Fleksi (or nearly that), around 2011 when I had an iPhone.

@alexchapman Android screen reader in development.
@fireborn Oh interesting. I guess that's also gonna be open sourced eventually?
-
@fireborn Oh interesting. I guess that's also gonna be open sourced eventually?
@alexchapman No. That will have paid features.
-
@alexchapman No. That will have paid features.
@fireborn Um OK, paid features in a screen reader? Jisuo or however its spelled has a paid thing going on, I'm surprised you wanna monitise an accessibility tool.
-
@jonathan859 Talkback passthrough should work fine. Can you explain what issues you're facing?
@fireborn Aha, when I turn off https://github.com/aryanchoudharypro/NVGTBridge it works fine, but when it's enabled in the accessibility settings TalkBack won't focus the keyboard. No idea why, I haven't added the keyboard to NVGT Bridge or anything.

@jonathan859 Interesting. I'll look into this, I have nvgt bridge on.
-
@jonathan859 As for the voice input method, do you have a default IM voice input set?
@fireborn Apparently I hadn't. Thought wisper worked but switched on Googles thing and that works now.

@alexchapman Do keep in mind I don't work full time any more. This is what I do now, as well as teach.

@jonathan859 Yeah, I was going to suggest turning on google voice typing and try that.

@fireborn Yeah, although I do think there's other stuff you could do paid features on, a screen reader just seems kinda... Idk how to describe it, I've seen it all over, Jisuo, Jaws and Supernova on Windows, it just feels off.

@alexchapman The core functionality will be free. The only things that will be paid are anything that cost me money to maintain.
-
@jonathan859 Interesting. I'll look into this, I have nvgt bridge on.
@fireborn @jonathan859 yep, talkback passthrough doesn't work here either. no other accessibility services on, pixel 8 pro, latest android, latest talkback.

@fireborn Right, so things like anything that requires some sort of server to function, that sort of thing. I've thought about doing stuff like that, but I've always said to myself if there's ever gonna be monitisation in any software that I do, I'm gonna do it where its completely optional, where the software is open source, and the only thing that's a paid thing is certain features running on my infrastructure. If people don't wanna pay, they can selfhost the full stack. That's the only way I'd ever do stuff like that.

@freya @jonathan859 Interesting. Tap once and then keep tapping? you have to tap once to focus it.
-

@fireborn @jonathan859 yeah, that just makes the talkback "nothing here" boop
-
@jonathan859 Yeah, I was going to suggest turning on google voice typing and try that.
@fireborn Also added it to the list at androida11y.com/apps.

@fireborn @jonathan859 yeah, that just makes the talkback "nothing here" boop
@freya @jonathan859 interesting, looking into it. I don't have a pixel, so I got it to work on a samsung and figured that would be fine. haha.

@fireborn @jonathan859 I just got an 8 pro and um. wow android has come a long way., talkback is still not as fast as voiceover but.... I presume there's reasons for that?

@freya @jonathan859 Reasons for that can quite simply be boiled down to talkback sucks.
