Sarah,
I'm perfectly 100% aware of this. Keep in mind that I have some usable
vision. Trust me, the problem I'm experiencing definitely is not me not
knowing how the screen is laid out, nor is it me not knowing what I'm doing.
This definitely is a problem on my end. I even had a sighted person look
earlier just to be sure I wasn't totally crazy, and sure enough.
Chris.

Remember the iPad is devided in to sections so you have to scroll the
screen in order to see what voice over does not.
take care.

OK, I am not sure if this is just me, or not, and I also confess, though
yes, I am a developer, I never installed any of the prereleases of the
build, so if this bug creeped up in one of the betas, I'm not aware
either way. Forgive me.
Anyway, I'm using this update on an IPad 4 with AT&T access. Just to
clarify, this isn't an Air. it's just the standard IPad 4th Gen. So,
the way I have my home screen arranged is very very organized. I
literally speaking do not have even one single app out on the home
screen, aside from my dock at the bottom which has Facetime, Messages,
BardMobile, App Store, and Music. Everything else, I've moved into
folders. So, here's the really odd thing. I'm noticing that some of the
folders I've created have multiple pages of apps. For example, my
Utilities folder currently has somewhere in the ballpark of about 25
apps. Obviously, that isn't going to all fit on one screen. I'm finding
that visually, it's only showing maybe about 16 or so apps per page, yet,
Voiceover is seeing somewhere around 20 per page. In other words, some
of the apps Voiceover is seeing are not actually present on the screen.
it's not even a matter of the folder virtically scrolling on each page.
You can't do that. You get the virtical real estate that the screen
gives, and past that point, you have to move horizontally to the next or
previous page within the folder. It's making it really confusing though,
as when I move apps around from position to position within a folder, or
even more so, if I uninstall an app, it's making the order of the
remaining apps within the folder get all catty wompussed. It's not really
an issue that causes me to not be able to use the device, and honestly,
it's not even all that annoying. It's more just something I observed that
I thought was a little bit strange. I've not tested this out yet on my
IPhone 5S, but I plan to do that later today, and if you all would like,
I'd be happy once I do to let you all know my findings.
I'm just ultimately curious if anyone else has noticed this update since
they pulled down the latest I O S 7 update. It will also be very
interesting to see if this only is effecting IPad users, or is it
globally effective across the entire board.
Chris.
