Any examples of apps with good first time experiences for VoiceOver users?

Any apps that have crafted a VoiceOver specific onboarding, rather than just making the visual onboarding accessible?

Apple removed my app from the App Store for an intellectual property violation for using the word Siri in my app description to promote my App Shortcut.

Just got a response from a feedback I filed last September. The Siri logo has been added in the new SF Symbols 7 beta. Would they have done this anyway? Maybe! But I’ll take the mini win.

Please add SF Symbols to represent Siri. I would use this symbol to create my own user ed around utterances users can say as Shortcuts.

Did the Siri AirPods affirmative head nod as I was walking by someone on the street and it was weird.

Working in the KEXP Gathering Space today. Seeing into the studio, I’m feeling inspired that a single human in front of a microphone is reaching people all over the world and helping make their day a little better.

I wish you could share public read-only iCloud links to Freeform boards.

Could a Mac app with Rogue Amoeba esque permissions keep a timeline history of your sonic alerts/notifications? I’ll often hear a sound and have no idea where it came from.

Been making an effort to see more live music and it’s always so nourishing.

no developer story yet, maybe never, but imagine CloudKit offering serverless compute for 3P apps to run private inference jobs on bigger models

I think my recent rental car had “next gen” CarPlay. The main display had the usual driving directions. But a secondary route overview was shown in the driver dashboard. Interesting too based on the screenshot, CarPlay provides a full width asset and the Volvo’s OS blended in a portion of it.
