1Password

[nianiam]

Signal please!

The notifications modal is also not captured:

Microsoft Teams (It worked in the previous version of Homerow by adding it to the list of Electron apps)

[dexterleng]

@tarikkavaz @nianiam added support for both Signal and 1Password. I've tested them as throughly as I could, but I'm not a daily user of these apps. Let me know how well it works!

[tarikkavaz]

tested it on both apps. works like a charm.

[tarikkavaz]

After testing Signal I was wondering if Telegram Desktop & WhatsApp could get the same treatment. Currently on Telegram and WhatsApp we got a few click points like search-bar, window buttons and window header. Signal gets all the links and so on. ✌️

[nianiam]

Signal working excellently. Thanks and fantastic work!

Microsoft Teams (It worked in the previous version of Homerow by adding it to the list of Electron apps)

FYI i was able to get Homerow working in Teams by setting AXManualAccessibility on the application element (I did so with Talon but it's probably not worth installing just for this — if you do use Talon, you should be able to drop this into your config until it's supported natively by Homerow: https://github.com/nriley/knausj_talon/blob/nriley/apps/teams/teams_mac.py)

[dexterleng]

I really wanted to add Microsoft Teams last week but I'm having trouble setting it up on my Mac, the 'Continue' button just doesn't work for me. @nriley any major issues with Homerow and Microsoft Teams with AXManualAccessibility?

[nriley]

@dexterleng Nope, not in casual use, seems to work fine.

[TMTBO]

Does it will work for Feishu(Lark.app)?

[dexterleng]

@TMTBO not sure, this app isn't available in my region (Singapore).

[dexterleng]

Just shipped Teams and Whatsapp support 🚀

[eleanormally]

Discord mostly works, but the server list does not create targets

[dexterleng]

@eleanormally that's because the server list is not accessible. I've already filed a report to the dev team. You should do the same! https://twitter.com/dexterleng/status/1607630600533577730

Hi there! Amazing application, just got it today and I absolutely love it, what a game changer. I have found a few apps to be inaccessible however which I'll now go on to list :)

• https://warp.dev/
• https://todoist.com/
• https://webtorrent.io/
• https://blender.org/
• https://numi.app/
• https://www.logitechg.com/en-au/innovation/g-hub.html/
• https://alfredapp.com/

My final incompatibility/missing option in specific is being able to select spaces at the bottom of the sidebar in https://arc.net/ which is currently not being recognised as an option.

Thank you kindly for your work in this app, appreciate this app very much ^-^

[kelvinst]

The Things app please. It gets the controls but the search does not work.

[noamvokaal]

The BBEdit app. I’d be extremely happy if Homerow worked in the search window in BBEdit.

[dkarter]

Inkdrop (which is my favorite way to take notes). It is an Electron app. https://inkdrop.app

The weird thing about this app is that it worked for me once, but then just stopped. I'm not sure why. When it stops working, Homerow will only label the window controls.

Thank you!

[eleanormally]

Nothing shows up for the Edison email client. It has great keyboard support already, but I'd love to be able to click links in emails.

[DoDoENT]

Tidal music player app.

I created an issue for that before seeing this one. Sorry.

[DoDoENT]

Also, Mac screenshot app. The "garbage can" button is not detected, thus not being able to delete the screenshot:

This is a screenshot of a screenshot app showing screenshot for my previous bug report (yeah, an inception).

Hi @dexterleng! Any chance for support for Kiwi for Gmail?

[dexterleng]

I'll be adding support for all Electron apps soon, with a disable list system, rather than me maintaining an Electron allowlist!

After testing Signal I was wondering if Telegram Desktop & WhatsApp could get the same treatment. Currently on Telegram and WhatsApp we got a few click points like search-bar, window buttons and window header. Signal gets all the links and so on. ✌️

I too would really benefit from Telegram support on homerow.

[eugenesvk]

Please add Sublime Text (it's partially supported) https://github.com/dexterleng/homerow/issues/82

[ruedigerfranke]

Please add support for warp terminal (https://www.warp.dev/)

Apps generated with https://webcatalog.io/en/ don't seem to be working, although at one time they were. It seems as though if chromium/electron apps are upgraded, they loose the accessibility preferences that homerow needs.

Ah, it looks like the first window of an web-based application (including safari) doesn't work outside of the menu bar icons.
