That's why before I contacted them, I tried it with TalkBack and left
TalkBack enabled for troubleshooting purposes.
The best solution would be a creation of a library that would extend
touch by explore functionality to older devices. This would mean that
to work properly Screen review developers would have to provide minor
updates to allow this feature to be taken advantage of and the
manufactures to do likewise with minor updates to their interfaces to
take advantage of it. Even if they didn't but the screen review
developers implemented it, third party apps that did enable this feature
would then be usable. Not an elegant solution but until all devices run
ICS or later, we will have the need for a bandade approach.in the
meantime, by tapping the screen about half an inch down and to the right
on the screen in landscape orientation seems to work for me most of the
time. The exact position is approximate and requires a little trial and
error.
Good Luck.

i don't have this update, so how do the other screen readers handle
the latest update? if better, then that might be a way to do things
until ma is fixed. not the best thing, but might make things easier.
Original message:
Hello, everyone:
We all know something is going on with the GP.store. But I am
wondering if anyone of you guys have taken notice that mobile
accessibility, US, is NOT LISTED IN YOUR LIST OF APPS. IT’S ALSO NOT
FOUND IF YOU SEARCH FOR IT via THE GP.store on your phone.
I know most of you guys are not able to take notice of this, but if
you get someone sighted to view that list of apps, you have on your
phone, and they would inform you that m.a. is not listed there. Try
to search for it, at the GP.store, via phone, and see if you find
it, and I am sure that you will not.
Remember I am only speaking about mobile accessibility, us.
The crazy thing is that I went to the website on my computer:
https://play.google.com/store <https://play.google.com/store>
and I found the app, but it said, install, this is something that it
normally would not say, it should say, “purchased”. And when I
clicked on install, it would not allow me to do so.
Now, usually, I would quickly assume, that this is a Google update,
problem, but many of us would agree that this problem didn’t take
place until recently… for me this didn’t take place until yesterday
afternoon.
I would like to know what Code Factory thinks of this… and is this a
Code Factory problem, and not with Google itself, or a combination
of the two?
This is a problem that many m.a. users would like to have an answer
direct from code factory. Indicating in dept. what’s the cause of
the lack of accessibility?
In addition, how long would we have to wait until code factory would
be able to fix this problem, if indeed this is a code factory issue,
or if Code factory would release an update to correct this problem
we are all having at this present time.
Warm Regards,
Pedro Martinez
