OK. To those trying to join the Apple Intelligence waitlist using VoiceOver in iOS 18.1, you may notice that nothing happens when you push the button. This is because Apple wisely coded this as a screen modal, and something does happen, you&#39;re just not notified of it. You must explore on the screen, and towards the bottom you&#39;ll find a button to &quot;join the waitlist&quot; which you need to press again to confirm your choice. You&#39;ll know you have joined because it will say so, that it&#39;ll notify you.

@Tamasg@mindly.social I’m already in on the Mac, just waiting on the download, whatever it is. I can’t see how big it is etc, so I’m just waiting.

@Tamasg@mindly.social @kevinrj@mastodon.social Even as a modal, focus needs to move inside it once the dialog opens, so we all should be sure we report the bug to Apple's #accessibility team.

@Tamasg@mindly.social something I shouldn't even bother trying to sign up for as my 15 plus won't get the AI stuff.

@Tamasg@mindly.social This is one of those rare times when I wish I at least had an IPhone 15 pro. Considering they're not likely to bring back the physical SIM slot, I might be stuck with my 13 pro forever. Good thing iOS isn't my daily driver anymore :) it's great to have choices.
