Ask Tii - Siri and Voice Over

Hi Rob, 

Congratulations on getting so many predictions correct on the iPhone 4S.

I had a question from a reader on my blog. I hope you can help. He is married to a blind woman who is very excited about Siri on the iPhone 4S. But she uses VoiceOver on the iPhone and wants to make sure that VoiceOver will work with Siri.

For example, if she asks Siri, "What are the best Hungarian restaurants in Tuscaloosa?" and Siri pulls up the results, will VoiceOver read the results to her?

I am planning on testing this when I get the iPhone 4S, but they would like to know this before the launch date if possible.

Any ideas on this?

        Thanks in advance for your help.

Kind regards,

Carolyn M

Hi Carolyn,

In this video about Siri - at about the 57 second mark they show a blind user using Siri.  

 

It sure looks like it will be a great addition for Blind users.

 

More to come on this for sure.
