Accessibility Comments
This is certainly useable though far from perfect. When swiping through the list of shows and movies, there is a weird tag which appears to be a jumble of letters and numbers. when playing content, I found it difficult to consistently bring up the playback controls when double tapping on the video button. Further, when you do manage to get the playback controls to load, swiping all the way to the right should reveal current playback progress which is suppose to be a slider to adjust. However, this doesn't appear to be recognize as such with VO.
Moreover, I can tell that there are status sections for certain things like close captioning, and AD, however these statuses are not being read by VO.
Beyond this, the app is certainly alright if you are willing to put up with these headaches. I am happy to report that the app appears to be much more snappier than the original HBO max app and much less resource intensive.
