I should comment here that when I asked the company about accessibility, they didn't seem to know their app was accessible. WHen I pointed out I had it on good authority it was and encouraged them to keep this in mind for future versions, I had not heard back. Don't know if they thought I was nuts or what, but hopefully they'll continue to make the app accessible. I haven't looked on their site to see if there is a manual, but might be nice to read it as well. I think I'm going to make the purchase in any event.
