Description of App

The BuzzFeed iPhone app is best way to stay up to date with the latest viral videos, images, links, and buzz while on the go. Features the BuzzFeed.com front page, most viral content, as well as LOL, WTF, OMG, Cute, Geeky, and Trashy Feeds.

BuzzFeed features the kind of things you'll want to pass along to your friends: an outrageous video that's about to go viral, an obscure subculture breaking into the mainstream, a juicy bit of gossip that everyone at the office will be talking about tomorrow, or an ordinary guy having his glorious 15-minutes of fame. And when you read BuzzFeed, you will always know the movies, music,and products that are on the rise and worth your time.

Accessibility Comments

This appears to be usable with VoiceOver. The only problem that I have encountered so far is with embedded videos. VoiceOver doesn't find the play icon that is overlayed on these videos unless you tap directly on it. However, the page also contains a link to view the video on YouTube, and this does work fine. I've not created a BuzzFeed account yet, so haven't tested the features of the app that are only available once you login (adding comments and giving reactions to articles).
