Accessibility Comments

You can get past the first screen which encourages you to pay for the in-app upgrade, but after that you will just get a ‘clunk’ from VoiceOver as it fails to find anything in the actual app’s interface which it can interact with. From what I can tell with my residual vision, this is probably because the app utilizes non-standard gestures and doesn’t incorporate any alternative way for VoiceOver users to access these.

VoiceOver Performance

VoiceOver reads no page elements.

Button Labeling

No buttons are clearly labeled.

Usability

The app is totally inaccessible.
