Georgiana Brummell<p>I am posting this due to the wonderful enthusiasm of the developer in regards to accessibility. When I asked if this app is accessible with Talkback, this was the response I received.</p><p>"Comment from Hakanft on R/Android</p><p>Thanks for asking — and that's a really important point!</p><p>The app was built using React Native (with Expo), so it should support basic TalkBack functionality out of the box. However, I haven’t fully optimized or tested it for screen reader accessibility yet. 🙁</p><p>Your question made me realize I need to improve this — and I will! If you're open to sharing feedback after trying it, I'd truly appreciate it."</p><p>The app itself is not only a great idea but can be extremely helpful. It is a fun way to gauge your water intake and ensure that you are drinking enough water each day. It also works with twenty-nine languages!

Robert Kingett<p>If any emerging narrators are not afraid of a little edginess, I would love this post to be recorded. I used previous donations to hire a audiobook narrator to record my, the architectural hostility of doorknobs post, I’m unable to pay for this recording at the moment, but if anybody wants to flex their narrator muscle or portfolio, I would be more than happy to shout you out, share your résumé, anything I can do to make pro Bono recordings less wasteful of your time and energy!

Chris C<p>iOS Reminders Tip. A good feature in reminders is that you can create sections within a reminder list. For example, I have a Trip Packing List where I list out everything I need for a trip. Well within that list I have created sections; like bathroom, clothes, electronics, and even a section for things to do before I leave. Having things organized in sections just helps me make sure nothing is forgotten. You can even rearrange the sections in any order you like. Each section is a heading to make it easier to navigate between sections. Sections can be added to any list that you want. It is just a really good way of organizing your reminders within a list. Here is how to create sections, and how to rearrange them within a list. First, creating a section. 1, Open reminders and go to the list you want to add 1 or more sections. 2, Double tap on the more button. 3, In the pop up window, double tap on new section. After a section has been created, new section changes to manage sections, and that is what you would double tap on to create more sections. 4, You will land in an edit box, type the name you want to give the section. 5, Now go back to the top of the screen and double tap on the done button. Now, rearranging sections. 1, Go to the list you want to rearrange the sections. 2, Double tap on the more button, then double tap on manage sections. 3, Double tap on edit sections. 4, All of your sections will be listed with a reorder after each title. Just double tap and hold with one finger on the section you want to move, and slowly moving the finger up or down. Once its where you want it, just release the finger. 5, When finished double tap the done button at the top of the screen. I hope this is helpful, and it helps you organize things better!

Gordon Anthony<p>Any Apple Mail experts out there? Using Voiceover on MacBook, emails are automatically marked as read when focus goes to them.

Does anyone know of a quick way to stop this happening?<br><a href="https://dragonscave.space/tags/Technology" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Technology</span></a> <a href="https://dragonscave.space/tags/Accessibility" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Accessibility</span></a> <a href="https://dragonscave.space/tags/Voiceover" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Voiceover</span></a></p>
