Hey, could someone actually tell me where to go to find that AppleVis accessibility guide page? I'd love to show that to a sighted friend of mine who knows hardly anything about Voiceover, but is a dev, and is working on an app. He's extremely! interested in reading up to be sure from the very beginning release, that his app works flawlessly.

Lol! Love the foot ball reference. I hand no idea megabus had an ios app! Yeah! Cool! this will make a trip I'm planning easier to plan. lol!

Anyway back to the subject. I also suspect that it is a UI thing rather then an all out voice over bug that's global. If some can find out what control is the item picker, then we can perhaps email them the apple vis guide on accessibility and tell them which control is giving the fits.

Take care.

I can confirm Chris's observation while attempting to peruse Magazines via the BARD mobile app, however believe this is more of a function of how the UIPickerViewController in question was coded.

For example, I was trying to bring the international audience into this discussion by locating a scenario that anyone could test. I first attempted to use the MegaBus mobile app while still on IOS6, and the picker loss of focus issue rendered the "search and buy" process unusable. I can confirm that this has not changed in IOS 7.02. I launched Safari, and went to the MegaBus USA site, and observed that the picker worked flawlessly; I.E. flicking up or down never results in the loss of focus.

So, perhaps the question is whether there is indeed a VO bug, or did the Developers of the BARD and MegaBus IOS apps fail to code their UIPicker view controllers correctly. If the latter (which I suspect is most likely), it would be great if we knew what specific modifications we could suggest that affected developers might consider implementing in their ViewControllers so as to fully exploit accessibility features such as VoiceOver.

Best regards, and its a wonderful day in the neighborhood since the RedSox lost!!

Has anyone noticed in I O S 7.02 that Apple in combination with Voiceover, broke the ticker items? Now, when there is one, you can't touch the bottom half of the screen any longer to get to it... you gotta flick to it. It's the only way, case closed. Second of all, once focussed, if you then one finger flick up to the next item, you then will completely! lose focus, then you gotta flick all? the freaking way back down the screen, find? the damn ticker again, then flick again, lose focus, flick down to the ticker again, flick, lose focus, etc. etc? You can't just find the thing, and one finger shook shook shook shook? This is the most aggervating thing I've seen. Good luck with tickers that have over a hundred items in them! Yes they exist. Don't believe me? Go look at the Bard mobile app under magazines by title. Yeah, try navigating that for a while losing focus every time, then tell me you're not fed up after about 2 minutes. LOL! Oh, and by the way, there is no way from the bard web site to add magazines to your wish list, so good luck going there on the pc or mac and just putting it there for
later download.

I might have a work around, but I need to test it before I say what it is.
Still though, is anyone else seeing this?  This isn't just Bard Mobile
either. That was only an example. This is happenning globally across the
whole I O S platform regardless the app.

Chris.
