Latest version of MLB not working with Voiceover?

By Jim D, 24 June, 2021

Forum
iOS and iPadOS

All:
Earlier this week, MLB released an updated version of its app. Ever since updating, when I go to the Scores tab, I can no longer use the previous and next day buttons to view the games on a particular day. Performing a double tap on these controls with Voiceover yields no changes to the scoreboard. I can read the scores for the current day, but that is it. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling the app, but this issue still persists.
Is anyone else experiencing this? If so, have you found a work around?
Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
Jim

It is not Just You

I am also having that problem. I had not tried it until you mentioned it and I can confirm that the app is indeed not letting you change dates under the Scores tab. If you wanted to see the scores from yesterday, you might try opening the mlb.tv button at the top left and try changing the dates there to see the scores from yesterday.

Schedules also not working!

With the latest update, if I go to my teams tab, then choose schedule, I can no longer view the teams individual schedule. Its really frustrating when apps like this take a giant step backward in terms of accessibility!

I complained about it to MLB, and they tried to pretend that it was Apple's problem. Of course, you can never reach someone who knows the difference between a bit-map image of text and discrete text characters.

MLB is going down hill

MLB accessibility is back on the decline. on a PC you can't change the volume of the game day audio with out turning off the PC curser in Jaws or NVDA's Browse mode. You can tell they did 0 screen reader testing. They use to have a nice volume combo box you pressed enter and it worked wonderfully. This problem also effects fast forwarding and rewinding.

I spent three weeks calling…

I spent three weeks calling major-league baseball approximately every other day to try to get help with their application. They claim that they have an accessibility helpline and right there on their website. They claim that they are working hard on accessibility issues. Both things are lies. Every time I called I was stonewalled by a receptionist and was never even allowed to speak to a technical support individual. What hurts even more is to read major league baseball inclusivity document and find that it basically does not include people with disabilities in any way shape or form. I am at a loss as to how to get change out of a major corporation when our society seems not to give a crap about people who are visually impaired. After all the favorite synonym for stupidity and ignorance is blind.

Latest fixes one issue

In the latest release, which came out about a week ago, the previous and next buttons now work as expected on the scoreboard. It is, however, still not possible to read the individual team schedules.
