Accessibility Comments

AppleVis Editor Note: this app was submitted before Usability Ratings were introduced, so one has been chosen on the basis of the accessibility comments made by the original poster. If you have used this app, please post a comment to let us know if you agree with the Rating.

Original Comments: This app is fairly accessible, however there are unlabeled buttons that, when double tapped, don't appear to do anything. I have emailed the developer, and they said they will address this for the next version, let's hope this is the case.

This free, "lite" version allows you to try IP Scanner to see if it suits your needs. It is therefore limited to displaying only the first 5 devices it finds. You may upgrade to the full version via in-app-purchase at any time.

IP Scanner for iPhone is a port of our highly acclaimed Macintosh application. Here are a few noteworthy features:

  • extremely fast scan results - we're talking seconds here
  • customizable results - you may assign your own names and icons to discovered devices
  • export scan results
  • save and import custom device lists

VoiceOver Performance

VoiceOver reads most page elements.

Button Labelling

Few buttons are clearly labelled.

Usability

There are some accessibility issues with this app, but it can still be used if you are willing to tolerate these issues and learn how to work around them.
