Actions router item in iOS 9

Hello,
In iOS 8 in some 3rd party apps, there would sometimes be an item called "actions." As most of you know, you could swipe up and down while focused on an item to do actions like deleting or activating the item in question.
I have noticed that in iOS 9, in some 3rd party apps, this actions router item is no longer present. For example in iOS 8 in the Kik app, you could swipe up and down while focused in the list of conversations to delete or activate as normal. In iOS 9 this is no longer possible to do in the app. I have tried turning my router to see if I could find the actions item, as well as looked at the voiceover roter settings, but I was not able to find it.
Has anyone else noticed this and if so are there any work arounds?
Thanks
