Touch&View

This is an assistive, adaptable application, designed in conjunction with a number of professional OTs and SLTs. It was created as part of the four "Touch&___" Apps, posted under this name.
In essence, the app provides a simplified interface for youtube, which the user can redesign for their own needs.

Features

The app allows a healthcare professional, or the user themselves, to create numerous accounts, with specific settings for the app, which will be saved between uses.

The user may add youtube playlist urls to the app and view the videos within each playlist.
By adding a youtube channel's 'Uploaded videos' playlist, the app can effectively act as a news feed for a specific channel. Suggestions include adding your favourite news, music, comedy, sports or gaming channel's playlists.
Alternatively one could add a playlist consisting of a list of videos relating to a favourite subject etc.

The user may then add various controls to allow interaction with this content, such as buttons to allow navigation between playlists and videos, play/pause options and volume controls.

The user can also resize these controls.

Finally, the app provides for a number of different interaction mechanisms. The user can select to use the app with an assistive switch device, to simply press the buttons as they are present on the screen, to make use of multiple taps anywhere on screen (eg: tap twice to activate the second button), to hold one's touch for a duration specific to each button or to hold one's touch to cause the focus to cycle between buttons.

It is also possible to change the timing options for these various mechanisms.

Please Note:

This App does require an internet connection to function.

This App does also require the user to have the youube application installed upon their phone.

This App was primarily designed for use with tablet devices, although it should function on other mobile devices.

Although switch accessible, to date, it has only been possible to test this with a single switch system.
