[Trainer-Talk] Seeking options for remote iOS training

[Greg Aikens]

I don't know if this works on the phone or not, but when using Zoom to train on the computer, I would have my student share their screen including the computer audio. Then I could clearly hear the screen reader speech. 

I have also done what Tom recommends but it does require access to a second phone or computer, which some of our clients do not have.

Why not have the student log in through a computer and not the phone.
Then you can hear what they are doing.

Greetings. As many trainers probably are, the training center I work at is looking at remote training opportunities. Like many, we are using Zoom for our training. We have surfaced a potential problem when training for mobile devices, in that, Zoom cancels any screen reader speech from the other person's phone. For intermediate or advanced users, this may not be as big of a deal. But for beginner users, we are unable to hear what our students are doing on their phones when they are in a Zoom call. We are investigating other options for training. Does anyone have any ideas of apps we can use that are accessible on Android and iOS, which would allow us to hear the other person's speech output?

Respectfully,
Wayne Merritt
