Maybe it's the best compromise, but there's something sad about Apple essentially making an entire second set of apps because they couldn't make the main ones accessible enough. It's like siloing people off into their own universe instead of making this one comfortable for them.
- Barbing 1y agoI can’t speak to whether it’s the _best_ compromise but if you see a screenshot of the way they dumb down the Camera app I think it does make it more clear that for example perhaps not a single reader of this website would ever find it remotely acceptable. Like no video if I recall correctly. I mean I’m sure with infinite time someone would find a better compromise.
- heartbreak 1y agoYou can turn on video in assistive access, but it’s off by default.
- Barbing 1y agoForgot about that, yes!
- amelius 1y agoAnd nobody can write an app that helps the user use other apps, because apps are not allowed to do that. Only Apple is allowed. Thank you Apple nanny state.
- worldsayshi 1y agoIt's an understandable limitation because such app permissions seem quite hairy from a security perspective.
- amelius 1y agoYes, and hitting a nail is very hairy from a safety perspective. That doesn't mean there should be 1 single blessed company with a license to carpentry.
