Accessibility Comments

Account creating a little bit sluggish with VO, but doable.
Homescreen, were you can move the world map, not accessible!
Sidebar lables are unlabled.
The Hashtag/category section is ok, here you can read showed articles without any issues and you get a bit of the sense of the App and what type of articles the AI is generating.
The settings part is instead of the other sections almost accessible. Almost everything labled and for VO visible. Except of the watchlist area, not editable with VO.

VoiceOver Performance

VoiceOver reads a few page elements.

Button Labeling

Few buttons are clearly labeled.

Usability

There are some accessibility issues with this app, but it can still be used if you are willing to tolerate these issues and learn how to work around them.

Other Comments

Must-have for news junkies!
Articles/push notifications generated by AI collected on credible news sites and OSINT sources reporting from every corner in the world.
There's massive room for accessibility improvements, but fixeable, if developer is willing to do the necessary work.

Update on SITREP accessibility

Hi everyone,

I wanted to give you a quick update on SITREP, because there's some really good news.

Recently, I contacted the developer, Artorias, and described the main VoiceOver issues: the inaccessible world map, the unlabeled buttons, the watchlist that can't be edited, and the sluggish sign-up. To be honest, I expected a generic "thanks, we'll look into it" reply. Instead, the CEO himself answered within a few days. He agreed with every point and openly admitted that the current version on the App Store was built with almost no accessibility work.

The good news: a completely rebuilt version of SITREP is on the way. According to the developer, it will include:

- A "Countries and regions" page listing every country from A to Z under letter headings, so you can use the rotor to jump between letters. Each country is a single button that reads its latest report and opens its feed.
- Labeled tabs and buttons, such as Watchlist, Global feed, Search and Account.
- An accessible watchlist with an "Add a country" field and labeled alert switches.
- A shorter sign-up with labeled fields and spoken error messages.

The new version hasn't been tested with VoiceOver on a real device yet, so I've offered to beta test it via TestFlight. I'll keep you posted once I've had a chance to try it.

One more thing for the AppleVis admins: when I submitted this app, I accidentally marked it as "Free". It's actually free with in-app purchases. Unfortunately, I can't edit that anymore. Could one of you please correct it? Thanks a lot!
