Accessibility Comments

For the most part it is hard to use in a meaningful way. I use this to tell me of the sports alerts. Unfortunetly, it is a hit and miss in what kind of experience you will find with this app. There are buttons that are label just fine, some have no labels, and others that are just not clear in what they are used for. The News are there. However, flicking to the left and right doesn't work. Scores and such are very hard if they work at all. To look at certain part of the screen. You will hear clicks as there is something to see. So there are quite a few elements that are not being read by VO.

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.

Notifications

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....

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?
