Is anyone else getting really annoyed by the accessibility widget?

That blooming blue Accessibility rectangle stays firmly seated on the answer/reply/post button and makes it hard to contribute (mobile user with Samsung S24).

Anyone else?

I managed to make it disappear previously, but that excellent option isnt there anymore.

Yes.

I was trying earlier today to try and remove it. It’s just getting in the way constantly on my phone

I haven’t had it come back since I clicked 'Hide for indefinitely '. I know a few people missed that part and it kept popping back up :sweat_smile:

@Peitho does mention about it here :blush:

Right flippin pain in the posteria. It is currently stuck over the bit that tells me when i have a reply/response. I cant see anything that would make it disappear.

Oh yes, yes yes yes its a nightmare on the phone …..been looking how to get rid …..

YES, it is so annoying

It hasn’t come back for me since telling it to hide it indefinitely. See the expanded quote in @Stacy2 's reply above.

I managed to hide it but it came back and now I no longer seem to have the hide function

I clicked on the reset bit but it does not show me the screen shown above, it just tells me that accessibility has been reset and i dont get any options.

I had clicked to hide the bloody thing and it disappeared. Now it is back and you can only move it left or right, can’t hide it anymore. It needs to be removed.

Yes, it’s really annoying! I managed to get shot of it last week but now it’s back and I can’t find the ā€˜hide’ option now.

It seems that you can only move it left or right. Frankly wherever it goes it’s in the bloody way of something!

my last posted was written on my phone, but i couldnt press post. luckily all drafts are saved so I could log into desktop and post it.

I turned it off the first time I saw it hasn’t been back since.

I was actually happy to see it, because accessibility is always a plus;
But after seeing where it was, and how it gets in the way (also mobile user but on crapple 12 P—M), it became a nuisance.

I’d reckon it be best situated in the settings section, or that side menu that pops out when pressed / those 3 stacked bars, or just move it somewhere where it doesn’t get in the way because the two places it goes really isn’t it.

Not a fan. Allows us to hide it

Yup, its super annoying. Can’t seem to find this hide function?

I did a check from a different device and there isn’t any options now to hide for any length of time like we had a week ago. You can only move it left or right. Might be something for @Lovehoney_Brenna to look into.

The reply window is a separate popup window on my browser. My solution was to make the browser window wider, and the reply popup stays the same width. This allows you to click on the ā€œReplyā€ button on the reply popup window without having to worry about the ā€œAccessibilityā€ button.

Is that mobile or computer @TruthSeeker12345? I know on mobile (Android/chrome) the reply opens in the same window - So you don’t have the option to resize the window and get stuck.

I’d be interested to know how many people a week ago, clicked just hide and how many clicked hide and then for indefinitely :sweat_smile:

The irony of an accessibility widget making the forum less accessible.
