Otter transcription app from AI Sense

Hi All,
This morning I downloaded the new Otter transcription app from AI Sense as I believed that adding AI to a transcription app would help those of use with sight issues who work in an academic environment would benefit from such an app.
However, after playing with the app for an hour or so, I am disappointed to report that the app is not accessible.
I was able to set-up an account and add my Google calender and contacts but that was as far as I could go.
The test recording process to learn my voice was not accessible at all and the app crashed when I tried to record, although I did have a recording once I got VO working again and opened the app again. Also, there are four tabs at the bottom of the screen which have no descriptors just the word 'tab'. I tried each one and I guess the first one is 'home' the second is 'recordings' but the third and last just crash the app once again.
If this app worked with VO I believ it would be a brilliant addition to the tools we could use as blind researchers but alas, as it stands at the moment, it just sucks.

Steve.

Hi I recently downloaded the Otter app and it was accessible with vo. vo read the tabs on the bottom of the screen; home, conversations, record, groups, and settings.
