When using the latest Sirius XM app 2.20 with IOS 6 both on a 4S and 5, the app automatically shuts down when using the favorites tab in exactly five minutes. This has been reported to Sirius XM twice with no response. Has anyone experienced this, and if so, is there a work around? Note that the app stays open when using any other tab except the Favorites tab.
iPhone and iPad

Hi,
This crosses into iOS and iOS apps and also could cross into mac OS and mac OS apps, but is Sirius Xm more accessible on iOS, or in safari/chrome on Mac OS these days?
I remember several years ago, it wasn't very accessible on iOS, but that was probably a good 4 or 5 years ago now.
Thanks for any pointers.

hello! I am a heavy sirius/xm user and since the end of September, when Sirius xm changed the site so older versions of the app (1.33) stopped working, I have had little success in accessing sirius xm. All versions from 1.4 on, are not accessible. I've written and complained to sirius xm several times and have never received a response. MusicDock does get most channels, but streams poorly, often rebuffering and reconnecting especially when I'm using 3g. Does anyone have any solutions that perhaps I'm not aware of? Thanks!

Is anyone else experiencing Voice Over issues with the SiriusXM app? I am finding that many of the buttons do not have useful labels. For example, the buttons for my favorites are read as “square undescore audio”. Is there a setting that can be adjusted to fix this?

Hello,
the SeriusXM app seems to be relatively accessible, but I seem to be having difficulties accessing my favourites. I have 3 or 4 favourites, but when I go to the favourites tab, the focus is stuck on one channel and I am unable to see any of my other channels. What is the best way to access your favourite channels?

Hi All,
I'm using an iPhone 5s, and since I installed IOS 10 my siriusXM app doesn't seem to be refreshing the way it used to.
I listen to the OTR channel quite a bit, and say I turn it off at 9:30 and turn it back on at 11:00 the content that was playing at 9:30 is still what's playing. Pressing the forward button doesn't help, and the skip button is dimmed out. The only way I can get what's playing currently in the above example is to go to another channel. and then come back.

I apologize if this is an old issue but I usually do native app and now they have me looking at mobile web and hybrid apps. I seem to have an issue with the Skip Link on a mobile web using an iPhone and iPad. I can activate the Skip Link and it sends me to where I want to go. When I swipe to go to the next element it takes me to the next section, region or container on the page. I don't seem to be able to Swype to that next element but I can do it by Explore by Touch. I notice the same issue on this site, is there a work around or bug that I have to live with?
thanks

For some reason the sky plus app on my iPad refuses to open, when I click on it the screen pops up for a second then closes. I did install it on iPhone yesterday but asume that has nothing to do with iPad issue. It works ok on iPhone. Have uninstalled and reinstalled iPad app to no avail. Any ideas?

Hello All,
I've been reading up a little on the Skyfire app here on Applevis, but I was wondering if anyone had anymore tips and tricks they would be willing to share? For example, it seems as though sometimes, the address bar is easy to find, and sometimes its not. I've also noticed that when double tapping on let's say settings, nothing happens the first time or two when tapping on it.
Is there a podcast anywhere that covers VO navigation and Skyfire? I've searched for one, but only found a podcast just talking about Skyfire, but nothing was covered about VO.

I downloaded the latest Skype update today and it had accessibility improvements. I made a voice call and I was able to access all the buttons and put it on speaker phone. Also, I was able to read the text in chat conversations again. So I guess there's no need to downgrade to older versions of Skype anymore.

Skype have just released version 4.0 of their iOS app. Mentioned in the release notes is "Improved accessibility".
I don't use Skype myself, so can somebody who does please let us know how far these improvements go.

Since the IOS6 update came out, I have been having a few problems with the Skype app for the Iphone. First of all, sometimes when I am in a Skype call, I all of a sudden hear a lot of static, and then, the call drops. This happens repeatedly, and I know that I have a good WiFi connection and everything. Also, after I updated the Skype update this past Monday, whenever someone tries to call me, it does not ring. Is there a way to fix these problems? Thanks.

Hi all. First, is it better to combine questions like this, or to post separately? I'm combining to try and reduce spamming the forum, but they are totally unrelated things. Anyway, on to the questions, the joy!
First, Skype. If I'm not in Skype, I get no notifications whatsoever. This is on latest iOS and with the latest Skype, which I just installed today. I have push notifications on, I have push notifications for multiple devices on in both Skype on iOS and Windows. So far as I know, I'm set up correctly, and I should be getting them.

I'm not new to skype, however I am new to skype on iOS, so I was wondering if someone could tell me if 1, it is possible to see the online contacts only?
And 2, is video messaging accessible? When I try to send a video message, voiceover stops speaking altogether.
I exit back to the home screen and speech returns, when I go back to skype, it goes away again.
Am I doing something wrong?
I thought this thing is suppose to be accessible.
It does seem to be, for the most part at least.
Any help would be appreciated.

Hi all,
I want to start using Skype on my iPhone 7 running the latest IOS, and I know how to answer a call but how do I make a call to somebody in my contact list, and how would I read any chat messages that I might receive and how would I send chat messages myself?
Thanks.

Hi,
When using the Skype app, once I have entered a contact's info to see their status or call them etc, it is impossible to get back to the contacts list. There is no back button. The scrub back gesture does not work either. There are no tabs along the bottom to back out of the contact to consult the contacts list again, or do other things in the app.
I am using IOS 5 on an iPad 2 and iPhone 4.
Maybe I am missing something obvious, but is this a know problem?

Hi, what is a good app that allows you to record long skype calls through headphones, for the ipod/iphone/ipad?
