Screen Curtain Issues, Chat GPT Accessibility Improvements & Zeitgeist 2 Demo
About this episode
Today on the show Steven and Shaun discuss an issue flagged by one of our listeners concerning the screen curtain on iPhone, and we hear from Michael Babcock on updates to the ChatGPT website, and listener Kyler shares his review of the Zeitgeist 2 talking clock and alarm.
First up the guys discuss the issues raised by an anonymous listener regarding the screen curtain on iPhone - a tool that hides the screen when blind users are using the Voiceover screen reader. The issue seems to temporarily disable the screen curtain in certain situations like when entering text. Steven has now discovered this issue and raises his own concerns.
Also Michael Babcock contributes an audio segment featuring a short demo of the updated website accessibility on www.chatgpt.com which features properly labelled buttons and also better heading navigation options through chats.
Also listener Kyler reports on his new talking watch and alarm that features many other cool apps such as a compass, notetaker and light detector - it's called the Zeitgeist 2.
