Accessibility Comments

To use this in a meaningful way I would make this inaccessible. There are so many places that have unlabel items. Many buttons that could be label better and some that are just not label. To even the scores you can't even do at all. However, you can read the news and a few other things.

VoiceOver Performance

VoiceOver reads a few page elements.

Button Labeling

Few buttons are clearly labeled.

Usability

Some parts of the app are accessible with VoiceOver, but not enough to make it usable.

#1 Notifications

Submitted by Tim Schwartz on 13 March, 2012 - 13:10.

The only thing I was able to do with this app is set up notifications for my favorite teams and sports. Honestly though if only one part of this app worked, I'm glad it is the alerts.

You can choose to get breaking news headlines as well as be alerted of the beginning and end of games, as well as be updated on scores. It even plays the little ESPN sound like on TV.

You can not read articles with this app at all. At least in my experience. I use the new USA Today app for that now. If FOX Sports would get rid of auto-refresh, I might use their app instead.

Just my two cents....

#2 help with notifications

Hello,
this app is really difficult to manage, but I'd like to try the notification in tennis. I don't know if it is possible to have update of each game but I think yes, I'd like to set up the notification but I don't know how to do it.
could you explain me?
