Improved accessibility on Facebook, WhatsApp Web, and Youtube
Hi everyone,
If you use Firefox and one of the major screen readers (NVDA, Jaws, or
Window Eyes), you will enjoy hearing about this:
* What is F123 Access?
F123 Access (pronounced F 1 2 3 Access), is software that reformats web
pages to make them more accessible and convenient for persons who are
blind and use screen-reading software.
* How can I try F123 Access?
The software is currently available as a Mozilla Firefox extension and
soon as a Google Chrome extension. It improves the accessibility and
usability of WhatsApp on the web, Facebook, and Youtube. To try it, you
can sign-up by filling-out this short form:
https://f123access.com/cgi-bin/signup.cgi
Once you sign-up, you will receive installation instructions, including
the download link.
* How can I use WhatsApp through the web?
After you have registered and installed F123 Access, you can use
WhatsApp with your computer by visiting the WhatsApp website here:
https://Web.WhatsApp.com/
The login process will require your smartphone and we recommend that it
be accessing the web through a WiFi connection. You may find additional
details on the above WhatsApp website.
You may exchange ideas, offer suggestions, and ask questions on our
e-mail list. To join the list, send an e-mail message to:
F123-Access-English+subscribe@...
We also have a WhatsApp group for English speakers. To be added to this
group, please send a WhatsApp message with your name requesting to be
added, to one of the following phone numbers:
+14167272470
+554399170959
If you would like to start a WhatsApp group in any other language,
please let us know and we will include a number to join in this message.
Those who speak Portuguese can join our WhatsApp group by sending name
and a request to join to the following number:
+554399170959
Please note that we are not responsible for the content shared in these
e-mail and WhatsApp groups. Having said that, we will do our best to
block participants that are not polite, constructive, and/or fail to
meet legal or other internationally accepted standards of behavior.
* What commands are available to me after installing this software?
The web version of WhatsApp is not accessible to screen readers. Once
that page is reformatted by F123 Access you will find numerous headers
and button labels placed there for your convenience. For example, level
2 headers, accessible on most screenreaders by pressing 2 or Shift+2,
will show you the names of your contacts and groups.
When inside a conversation, level 4 headers will show you messages you
have received, and level 5 headers the messages you have sent. Of
course, should you wish to read all of them in sequence, you may simply
use H and Shift+H in most screenreaders. Finally, you may use the up and
down arrow keys if you need to hear all the details such as the date and
time of each message.
* I love it! How can I have this level of convenience for other web sites?
F123 Access can fix accessibility problems automatically in a large
number of web pages, and this will be available to everyone in our
future versions of the software. In the meantime, you may suggest a web
site that is important to you, and we will do our best to give priority
to the most requested pages.
Our team will also prioritize accessibility work that helps fund the
continued development of this technology. Organizations, companies,
foundations, and individuals can hire our competitively-priced
accessibility services directly, or by joining a crowdfunding
initiative. Pricing will vary according to the type of web site and so
will the needed time to deliver an accessible and conveniently usable
version of that page. Those interested can email us at:
F123Access@...
We wish you accessible surfing!
Best regards,
The F123 Team

timeline. I press enter on forward it on timeline but I don't know if it

I don't seem to be able to find a source for how to utilize Facebook for the
blind.
I use m.facebook.com and can do some things like find friends, send messages
but I can't seem to access my notifications and am not sure the difference
between a status posting and a post. I realize these are basics but I just
don't get it.
Thanks for any help that is offered or a source to learn this if it is not
here.

facebook
Hi Christie. Have you tried internet explorer 9, think that will work with
xp, vista, 7, see if you can find that, or maybe try another browser, like
firefox, google chrome. And if you have windows 10, well edge only works
with nvda, not jaws.

Facebook accessibility and Facebook messenger
Hello,
I'm new to this group. I'm running Jfw 14 and NVDA 2015.4 as my screen
readers. I've got a Facebook account and I never use it, because I
find the interface well the last time I did use it, clunky. I've tried
the mobile site, but found a lot of missing features.
What I'd like to know is how are others using facebook.
I'm also interested in the messenger applications, I know my friends
message back a nd forth both using computers and their smart phones,
and I'd like to get that functionality going as well.
Thanks.
Dave.
