Hi everyone,
I wanted to share a new iOS game we’ve just opened up for public beta testing called Cozy Sort Studio.
This is an iPhone-first, low-pressure sorting and organization game built around restoring small, everyday spaces. The focus is on calm, tactile interactions rather than speed or score-chasing—so it’s meant to feel relaxing and approachable rather than demanding.
In the current beta, the game includes early restoration content across a few themed areas like a breakfast nook, reading nook, and maker corner. The core interaction is tap-to-select and tap-to-place, with some layered organization rules that evolve as you progress.
From an accessibility standpoint, this is something we’re actively working on and improving. Feedback from the AppleVis community is especially valuable to us, particularly around VoiceOver navigation, focus behavior, clarity of interactions, and overall usability without vision.
If you’re interested in trying it out, you can join the TestFlight here:

We’d really appreciate any feedback—what works well, what doesn’t, and where the experience could be improved from an accessibility perspective.
Also, for those following our other project, My Little Friend, we’re continuing to work through feedback and bug fixes there as well, with updates coming soon.
Thanks so much for taking the time to check it out.

my innicial thoughts
so this, harkens bck to a similar game i downloaded. the difference is tyour game is accessible. it has music, which is distracting for VoiceOver users, and i recamend audio ducking be set to always when playing this game. there are no settings i can see, to reduce volume ofn backround music. for the iOS novis, this game would be offputting, as not being aple to here VoiceOver speach, is a quick deletion of this game. i would give VoiceOver uses a message, at the first, when the game is op[ened, worning potentional users to put audio ducking on always for this game. all buttons are clearly labeled, which most developers for VoiceOver do not em[loy. the mviance of the music, gives the air of calm, even before playing for the first time. codos to you for thinking of us!
no settings for music
Honestly every developer should have settings for sounds and music in their games if the music is just gunna be over the top of screen readers to the point of you not hearing the information being spoken and if this app does not, then this is top priority that you add this. Either turn the music down at the core of the file or add settings. Keep in mind I have not tried the game yet and if there is no settings for music and or sounds or if music is gunna be all over the top of VO I may not test until this is fixed. I know, audio ducking, but that lowers everything and I do not like that! I am looking forward for improvements as at the core, I'm a big fan of your work. And before anyone comes at me because some games do not have settings for music and or sounds, Cause sounds and music are already balanced out to the devs liking and you can actually hear screen readers clearly with out everything being drowned out.
