Jerboa is a native-android client for Lemmy, built using the native android framework, Jetpack Compose.

Warning: You can submit issues, but between Lemmy and lemmy-ui, I probably won't have too much time to work on them. Learn jetpack compose like I did if you want to help make this app better.

Dear Jerboa team, I am writing to you today to share some feedback on the accessibility of your app. I am a Talkback user, and I have found that there are a few areas where the app could be improved.

• Full Talkback support for all app features. This would mean that Talkback users would be able to navigate through menus, read text labels, and interact with buttons and other controls using Talkback. • Improved accuracy of Talkback announcements. Currently, Talkback can sometimes announce incorrect or incomplete information. This can make it difficult for Talkback users to use the app. I believe that making Jerboa more accessible would be a valuable addition to the app. It would make it more inclusive and accessible to a wider range of users. Thank you for your time and consideration. Sincerely, Hunterd189

What version are you on? I filed an issue about quite a few accessibility bugs that were fixed in 0.0.34 which was released yesterday afternoon. I am a talkback user myself and xan file issues on github if needed

0.0.33

Yep, try updating. It fixes quite a bit. Not perfect by any stretch but much better

All my apps are up to date according to play store. How would I go about updating

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Hmm. I assume you would have to wait. I havent used play store in like 4 years because i get my stuff from fdroid

I just updated to 0.0.34 through GitHub. It's much better, I noticed the save tab on the bottom bar is labeled as search. I think you can fix that temporarily with a TalkBack custom label.
