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.
