Pretty straight forward, though the devs could probably make it better if they knew about voiceover. Assuming they don’t.

VoiceOver reads most page elements.

Most buttons are clearly labeled.

I was in talks with the developer when this app was first released. He assured me that he would be working on getting updates to voiceover released in the next update. This was about a year ago. I removed the app off my phone since back then it was all kinds of trouble to use with voiceover and haven't tried it again since.

I’ve tried using this app, but the accessibility is terrible! It only says tab every time I touch the different options!
