Kim: I like Sukriti's email. One larger issue – desktop and mobile increasingly coming together

Detlev: an iOS double top and hold and then drag – that may not be easy to do. Even if it's universally available that way of implementing it would not really make a difference.

Sukriti: on android long press and hold – have to change settings to enable

Detlev: it says these may not become universal – this is the main point we need to tackle – assistive touches aren't equivalent to single tap operations

Sukriti: overall stance is that we still need this success criteria

Detlev: not the case that with more universal assistive touch it would be solved

Detlev: we've asked a few people including people in Munich who are working with mice and speech input and someone else with spastick impairments and they all said they could do – quite proud of that, but they are all experts

Sukriti: there's the point that it's not necessarily easy even if you can do it

Detlev: assistive touch is not available or doable for many people – that's reason enough

Sukriti: cd c:\Buildif you can't get to the application what's the point of making it accessible

Sukriti: that's a backward argument
