LookTel Releases Update for LookTel VoiceOver Tutorial
— ♣This week, LookTel released a significant update to the free LookTel VoiceOver Tutorial app for iOS. This update adds two new lessons, effectively doubling the apps content.
The new lessons cover such things as exploring the phone keypad and in-call screens, as well as answering and sending messages to incoming callers.
Two new mini-games are included, as well as a fun interactive scenario simulating an in-call phone directory situation so that customers may become familiar with using the iPhone’s keypad when they may need to interact with such in-call directory systems in real-life.
Below is the App Store link and description for the LookTel VoiceOver Tutorial.
