O TYM ODCINKU
Michael has submitted Earshot to App Review, leading to a tour through App Store Connect’s confusing controls and an expedited-review form that required sighted assistance. He is also stress-testing Start Posting, a Mastodon scheduling tool designed with screen-reader users in mind, while both hosts prepare for ACB in St. Louis and consider an evening meetup.
Damashe previews the A. T. Guys booth lineup, including cane pouches, the Dot Pad, Zoom audio gear, large-print keyboards, and the Shokz OpenFit 2+. From there, the conversation moves to AirPods and Find My, Michael’s missing earbud, filling in on Double Tap, possible cameras in future AirPods, football streaming, over-the-air DVRs, and the NAS Damashe will eventually have to buy.
