  • blind android users podcast show 4 Android setup part2 &Indoor Navigation With Clew From Paul Ruvolo

    Welcome to Episode 4 of the blind android users podcast.

    In this episode, we continue the "Android setup" process we started last time.

    Warren continued showing you how to setup your android phone from where he left off.

    We next had a chat with a special guest, Professor Paul Ruvolo from Massachusetts, the developer of the "Clew" app.

    "Clew aims to change our world when it comes to indoor navigation.

    For the time being, however, "Clew" is only available for the iPhone at the following URL:

    https://apps.apple.com/us/app/clew/id1268077870

    From the sounds of it, however, seems like Professor Ruvolo is going to look into bringing it to Android and I can't wait!

    We then moved on to the "my Story" segment of the podcast, and our friend, Tony Sohl, takes us on a journey of his android story.

  • Introduction--The Android Journey

    Welcome to our very first episode of the "Blind Android Users" podcast.

    In this episode, we simply introduce ourselves and talk about our Android journeys.

    Both Austin, Denis and myself, Warren, simply reflects on our first experiences with the Android platform and the phones that we started the journey with.

    Denis lays out the case for keyboard accessibility and general accessibility across the board.

    He mentions "Aquamail," an email client used by many blind folks because of its accessibility and ease of use.

    "Aquamail" is found at:

    https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.kman.AquaMail&hl=en_US&gl=US

    Austin takes us back to the days when he got started on his journey, cataloguing the devices on which he had those experiences as he journeyed down the Android lane and recalling the good ole Eyesfree Shell.

    In the "App of the week" section, Warren demonstrates an uber-like app called "Truck It," an app intending for hauling things, started by the vets of the United States.

    The app is located at:

    https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.dttruckit.user&hl=en_US
