New and Noteworthy App Entries


Button by Neatebox (iOS, Free)


18 years working for Guide Dogs for the Blind watching my blind and visually impaired friends struggle to interact with pedestrian crossings prompted me to look for a solution which would make the lives of all disabled people easier in this area.

Many crossings poles are out of reach or too far from the crossing to be useful so I set up Neatebox and looked for a way in which we could press the button at the crossing using our mobile phones.

“Button” by Neatebox is the result of this hard work and gives you a hands-free remote crossing control from your phone. It removes the need for you to make physical contact with the crossing pole and leaves you free to focus on a safe and efficient crossing.

Simply download the free app and input your details and you are ready to go.

At this time there are limited locations in which the system can be used but we are keen to install more. If you feel that a crossing near you could do with an innovative solution such as this please let us know using the ‘request a crossing’ feature within the app’s settings and we will contact the Local Authority on your behalf to ask for our system to be installed.

Game description

Inquisitor’s Heartbeat catapults the player right into the 1300s, the height of the brutal Inquisition.

Accused of heresy for being in possession of a forbidden book, Nicholas Eymerich, the game’s main character is imprisoned in the dungeon of a castle: he must escape from his cell and retrieve the precious book that has been stolen from him, before it is taken to the monastery beyond the forest, and destroyed forever.

In more than 6 hours of gameplay, the player has to find his way through 35 labyrinthine levels divided into 7 different settings, without being spotted by guards and ferocious beasts, trusting only his own ears.

There is also an ‘endless’ game mode, where the mazes are generated one after the other, always with a different map.

Using the iPad as a Laptop Replacement, Part 1


By Lysette Chaproniere | July 22, 2019

In late 2017, I got my first iPad, and started using it as a laptop replacement. I’m sure this would’ve been surprising to my younger self. When Apple launched the iPad, I thought it was pointless. It’s a big phone that doesn’t make phone calls, I thought. But then, I didn’t think I’d ever be able to use a touch screen. Apple can prove me wrong.

So why did I decide to get an iPad? I’d been using Windows for many years, but never liked Windows 10 very much. My Windows laptop was getting slow, and would sometimes get itself into an endless loop on startup which I usually couldn’t exit without sighted assistance, because my screen reader hadn’t launched yet. Meanwhile, my iPhone never had that problem. VoiceOver was always there for me, and if my phone ever crashed, it was up and running again within a few seconds. My phone could do virtually everything my laptop could do and more. Since I had become dissatisfied with Windows, and getting another iOS device would be easier and cheaper than getting a Mac, I decided that an iPad would be a good solution. 

With the upcoming launch of iPad OS, I’m expecting that the iPad will work even better as a main computing device. For more information on what’s coming to the iPad this September, see this Summary of Announcements from WWDC 2019 Keynote <https://www.applevis.com/blog/apple-apple-tv-apple-watch-ios-ipad-ipados-itunes-macos-news/summary-announcements-wwdc-2019>  and this iPad OS preview from Apple <https://www.apple.com/ipados/ipados-preview/> 

In the rest of this post, I’ll discuss some of the features already available on the iPad before the launch of iPad OS. The next article in this series, to be posted in September, will be about the features introduced in the update.
