Hello Louis,


When you say that, iOS does not respond to the button pushes, do you mean that it does not respond when you double tap? Have you tried both using explore by touch, and using the flicking right / left gestures? Are there actions you an perform with the rotor, using the rotor action? That is, if you know what I a refering to?


Also if you search for Duo Lingo on the apple vis web site, you can find a lot of useful comments and postings from other people regarding is accessibility. You may find the answer to your questions there as well, so you don't have to re post it.


Thanks,

Humberto

Hi Louis,

First, I know how you feel. it's really hard to explain how access
technology reads or doesn't read things to those who don't use it.

When you say Dualingo doesn't recognize the button pushes, what do you mean?
I've never used any iOS programs before. If you tell me how JAWS sees it, I
can help you explain it to others on the site.

Subject: [GUI-Talk] Duolingo

Hello,

I am trying to use the Duolingo
"https://www.duolingo.com/"<https://www.duolingo.com/>
web site and iOS application to learn Spanish.  While I can answer the
questions on the web site, using Firefox and Windows 10, with difficulty, it
can be done.

I am unable to answer the questions using the Duolingo iOS application.  For
example, if you must translate the phrase "el hombre" into English, the
answer is "the man".  In the application, you are given several words that
are buttons.  You must hit the "the" button and the "man" button.  The
application does not recognize these two button pushes.

I have not found a way to contact the developers from the web site nor from
the application.

I have not found a clear way to ask the question on the AppleVis
http://www.applevis.com/
web site.

I would appreciate any help people can give on either the iOS or website
Duolingo applications.

Regards
Louis Maher
