Hi!
So, the trip to Italy is done, and I have the best memories ever. I’ve spend some time with the Global Avanade Innovation Network, and it was amazing to see again my friends from all around the globe.
I was supposed to continue my series of posts on Face Recognition and Python. Remember, I was down from 5 FPS to 30 FPS with some minor tweaks. But I have in my notes a different post to write.
It all started when my friend Juanjo (@kastwey) kindly asked to everyone in twitter to describe the images we use in each tweet. Juanjo is blind, and he is an amazing developer. Every time I talk to him, he reminds me how we can do some little extra efforts and make his life more easier.
Sometime ago, I was used to share my code samples as images in my blog, and JuanJo shared how difficult was to him to read this code. My code is not very good, but you never know …
So, if you want to help people in Twitter who may not be able to see the graphics content you share, please follow the next steps. This is for Twitter for Android, I’m sure that the iOS app will be similar.
- Open Settings in the Twitter App
- Select [Accessibility]
- Check [Compose image descriptions]
- That’s it!
Now, every time you write a new tweet you will be prompted to add an image description for every photo / picture.
Twitter Android describe image complete 
Twitter Android prompt for describe image
Remember, 5 seconds may help a lot of people!
Happy coding!
Greetings @ Toronto
