Accessibility Comments

Found it rather complicated to use and there are many barriers such as unlabeled buttons and a complicated UI.

VoiceOver Performance

VoiceOver reads most page elements.

Button Labeling

Few 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.

Other Comments

The Maxthon has been around for many years on the desktop and yet another app to provide an alternative web browser to safari that comes with your device. So upon opening up the app for the first time. I was disappointed to see how badly it was for the Voice Over. There are many unlabeled buttons with a very complicated UI to understand. I suppose if you really wanted to take the time to re-label all of the button so that it would make sense to you. You could. You will need somebody with some sight to help you on this journey. Out of the box I just found it to be unusable. It isn't inaccessible but just darn near it. So I can't recommend this for the fainted heart.
