Re: Usa Today for iPhone, version 2.0
USAToday Update
Loving this app!
Full Voiceover support is back
VoiceOver Improvements in Version 2.1.0
Version 2.1.0
Can't get complete articles to read with Voiceover
I am also experiencing this issue in v2.1.1
Version 2.1.1
I'm having the same issue and
developer responds!
2.1.2 was released today, and
USA Today still has problems after 2 updates
Version 2.3.0.3
Unfortunetly, the existing problems with the articles sill persist in this new update. In some ways I find it a bit more harder to read. Now when I flick to the left and right to read the article at times I will get a click sound with no results. I have to tap on the screen to continue reading in the article. It is like you have to swipe up to be able to read on.
That is a shame. I can only hope that this issue will be fixed in upcoming releases.
However, at least they are up to IOS 6 and iPhone 5 compatible! ;)
What's New in Version 2.3.0.3
* Full support for iOS 6 and iPhone 5 screen size compatibility
* Bug fixes and stability improvements
Are people contacting the
problem with this app since iOS 7 release
Crashing
Crashing here too on iPhone 4S
Major new update
update May 12 inaccessible?
I updated to the May 12 version on my iPhone last night. When I open an article, it seems that nothing but the title is available to VoiceOver. Anyone else try this?
I agree that USA Today is
I agree that USA Today is totally inacccissible with voiceover now.
Has anyone contacted the publisher? I have sent messages to them in the past and never got a response.
RE: Update May 12 Inaccessible (Yes)
Yes, I can confirm that on my iPhone 5S running IOS 7.1.1 I am unable to use VO to access the body text of most articles in the May 12, 2014 version 2.5.0 of the USA Today App. I've submitted a bug report via email. If you haven't already done so, you can submit a bug report from within the app by going to Section Menu / Article Settings / Email Support / Bug Report.
Version 2.6.0 mentions VO "fix for articles"
What's New in Version 2.6.0:
Apple Watch improvements.
VoiceOver fix for articles.
Improved Facebook sharing stability.
Bug fixes.
