Over the past 2 days, I have taken considerable time to use this app
and, as a blind/Voiceover user, I have been quite impressed with the
accessibility of this app along with its other great features. First,
the main screen, with the use of Voiceover, allows me to easily read
the latest weather updates, but it also allows me to fully read the
current weather conditions. Further, when I’m switched to the video
screen, I can move through the additional info listed on that screen
while listening to the video feed. However, the video area is not
accessible as Voiceover does not announce the video controls.
Additionally, the RADAR screen is not fully accessible as there is
much difficulty in creating accessibility for that screen. However,
Voiceover does announce the nearby towns that can be highlighted, so
it is better in accessibility than most weather apps for the RADAR
screen. Regarding other screens, I can easily navigate the hourly and
daily forecast pages with no trouble at all which is quite difficult
to do on most other weather apps. Further, the settings screen is
accessible and easy to decipher, and I truly appreciate the variety of
options for choosing locations and notification preferences. I also
appreciate the customizable options for types of weather alerts
received. Finally, I received an accurate notification of heavy rain
entering my area minutes before posting this review. Thanks to
KLFY-TV10 for producing such a quality weather app which is accessible
to Voiceover/blind users. In future upgrades, please continue to keep
this great app accessible to all. Go KLFY!
