Accessibility Comments

This app is accessible with VoiceOver.

There are, however, a couple of issues. The first is very minor, and is simply a poorly labelled button - the settings button is labelled "gear 20w".

The second issue does impact upon the usability of the app - your list of feeds is presented as a grid of icons. Any feeds with unread items has a badge beside it that shows the number of unread items. Unfortunately, VoiceOver does not read the badge. This makes it impossible to identify which of your feeds has new content.

VoiceOver Performance

VoiceOver reads most page elements.

Button Labeling

Most buttons are clearly labeled.

Usability

There are some accessibility issues with this app, but it can still be used if you are willing to tolerate these issues and learn how to work around them.
