Bright Guide - messenger Reviews

by CaringSpirit

I used to enjoy using BrightGuide, but now I don’t know. I am unable to log in. whereas, before I had no issues at all. Please, I am trying to understand what is going on with BrightGuide . I preferred it to the Telegram app because its not blind friendly. However, it is beginning to feel like your app isn’t blind friendly either. Please, fix the inability to log in register with phone. It won’t allow you pass that window. Plus, it keeps saying, “Error incorrect phone number”. No matter what I do. I uninstalled and reinstalled with the same results. Please, do something.

I’m totally blind and am glad Bright Guide is the answer to making Telegram more accessible for people like me who use VoiceOver. But every time I enter the login code I get from Telegram, I immediately get an error message from Bright Guide saying “Incorrect password.“ And I even double check the code to make sure I entered it right, but no luck. From what I can see, there’s no field that asks you for a password. It just asks you to enter the verification code that was sent.
I also noticed Bright Guide hasn’t been updated in three months, and I tried sending an email to the developers about this problem. But I haven’t heard back from them yet. If anyone else is experiencing the same problem as me, it’d be greatly appreciated for the developers of Bright Guide to get it fixed.

This application does not have any of the newest features like the regular telegram client or even any of the other inaccessible clients have. As far as I can tell, the telegram API hasn’t even been updated to the newest ones. Also, seriously? Charging you for sending voice messages? Literally the most basic feature in every single messaging app? The only reason it was easy for them to add voiceover support it’s because BrightGuide already didn’t have that many features. Some developer responses say that they are working to make it better but I haven’t seen anything since then or even before then. This really just seems like a money grab.

If the ability to download files is added and the ability to share voice mesages you recieve is added it will get 5 stars

So BrightGuide needs an update for the newer os coming out plus just bug improvements like the fact when i tried to contact support it told me to hit the send button twice to activate it all elements have to be done with that method in voiceover. So that is nothing new. The text box with my message still did not clear. Oh and i did not know it had logged me out. So that being said I was not able to use BrightGuide because it looked logged in accept my messages werent updating. Furthermore there is no logout button or status change feature. This has nothing i would want mostly in a messenger. If I could code i would code in swift and code from the ground up and not charge to send voice messages and also dictation is flawed here because it kept writing words i wasn’t even saying. And repeatedly writing them.

this is a nice app for telegram, but you cannot get the in-app purchase for sending voice messages, Every time you try and buy it, BrightGuide crashes. Other than that, I would use it if the voice messages functionality actually worked. I do not mind paying 5 bucks to the dev if you could actually get it. I know some people don't want to pay for this functionality, but hey, A dev has to eat. Think about the time and efforts that have been put into BrightGuide to make an accessible telegram client and put your self in that position. For those who do not want to pay for this, Try making a telegram app your self on iOS and see how far you get.

I love BrightGuide. however, I've noticed that when someone sends me a message with the regular telegram app it cuts off the end of the voice message. and also I can't play video messages as well. I also get photo messages and it would be great to be able to open them. but other than that and not being able to call I have enjoyed BrightGuide so far.

I would like to say that BrightGuide is absolutely accessible! No doubt, BrightGuide is simple and easy to use with VoiceOver. Yes, you do need to pay for the voice message feature, but it’s well worth it.

I discovered BrightGuide just recently and I find it to be accessible and user friendly. It has made my life easier as far as telegram is concerned. Much appreciation and thanks to the developer of BrightGuide and I have to say, the five dollar in app purchase is absolutely worth it. Thank you very much again.
