In this episode of Double Tap, hosts Steven Scott and Shaun Preece dive into an array of topics which lead into an insightful discussion on Tape It, a recorder app designed initially for musicians but has found a niche within the blind and partially sighted community.
The creators of Tape It hadn’t initially focused on accessibility, but after receiving feedback from a Canadian user who is blind, they realized the app’s potential for a broader audience. This led them to learn about and implement VoiceOver features, significantly improving the app’s usability for users.
Steven talks to Thomas Walther, co-founder of the app, to chat about how Tape It harnesses the iPhone microphones to deliver high-quality audio recordings. Thomas also shares the journey of discovering the blind community’s interest in the app and the steps taken to make it more accessible.
