Dear Surya, After the update, the app has become bit inaccessible for persons with blindness. The buttons are not properly labled. I came to know through the conversation on the IndianExpress app's Google Play store profile that there is a specific gesture to read more than five news items within the category, but I myself don't know the gesture. The help page is completely inaccessible.
I wrote them regarding these problems and they assured me that they would incorporate accessibility features in the next update. I request you and all those who read IndianExpress through Android app to mail them the problems that we are facing at: [email protected] Please also comment about the accessibility features and problems that we are facing on the rating page of the app on Google PlayStore. They are active on the page. On 3/18/17, avinash shahi <[email protected]> wrote: > No sir.
