Hi all. Has anybody recently tried to buy a Kindle book on Amazon, through Safari or another iOS browser? I did and VoiceOver is not reading the ‘Buy now’ button. It reads the price, and it reads the sample button. It also readsthe button to buy for others. But the all-important button, no.
Has anyone else found this? The button is there because I’ve checked a screenshot with SeeingAI and ChatGPT.

My experience
When I search for an eBook on Amazon, by means of Safari on iOS, I am able to choose between eBook, Hardback or Paperback, and when the checkbox for eBook is checked, I get a, "Deliver to your Kindle Library", button.
Please note this is for a book that is not part of Kindle Unlimited.
Edit:
Apologies, forgot to provide an example link.

I get the same Brian
Thanks for testing this Brian. You get the same thing as me. The button to deliver the book is not the button to buy it. That button is called. ‘Buy now’ and it can only be located with screen recognition and a bit of experimenting. Really grateful for your help.
