(Resolved) What In The World Is Wrong With The iTunes Store? Weird VoiceOver Behavior!

**Update: This issue seems to be resolved.**

Hello everyone,

I am quite surprised that no one has posted this issue yet, so here it goes.

When I opened the iTunes Store today, there is some weird behavior with VoiceOver. For example, it usually says "Songs" when you search a song title, but now, it says, "SF6.SearchPage.song."

I have never experienced this before. Has anybody else experienced this possible downgrade in accessibility in the iTunes Store? I am using the latest iOs update, 16.3.1.

Also, I would like to add that it use to tell you the price for an item, but that seems to be broken. It just says, "buy."

Thank you.

How are you performing a song search? The search edit field is currently reading correctly with VoiceOver. Additionally, under the songs heading prices such as $1.29 are read for the price of songs.

I don't know why it is doing this. I turned back on the caption panel in VoiceOver Settings. What is actually Caption Panel? I had it turned off because I didn't know what it was.

After I turned it back on, I went back into the iTunes Store, and it works normally again.

Thank you.

I ust updated to the latest ios, and this isn't showing up. I can still see prices and song titles as normal. Try restarting your device to see if that fixes it, but i'm not getting the described behavior at all over here.
