    Facilitators: Ava and Hershi Topics:  Musician's Corner: A deep dive into accessible guitar tuners for Android. While iOS has the popular "Talking Tuner," Android users are encouraged to explore Guitar-Tuner and use "accessibility" as a primary search keyword to find compatible tools. The Great Message Migration: A critical update for Samsung users—Samsung Messages is going dark in July 2026. The team recommends switching to Google Messages now to take advantage of RCS (Rich Communication Services) and seamless web integration.    Hardware Spotlight: Expert advice for low-vision users looking to upgrade. The consensus? The Samsung Galaxy S-Series and Google Pixel (specifically the Pixel 10a) are the gold standards for high contrast, large font scaling, and long-term OS support. Talk-Back Mastery: A "lightbulb moment" for many: moving app icons has changed! Instead of the old long-press, users should now use the Talk-Back Actions menu (swipe up/down with one finger) to easily "Add to Home Screen." iBUG 15th Anniversary: Celebrating 15 years of community support! Don’t forget to check out the $500 Shopping Spree Raffle at ibugtoday.org to support their mission.
