Hello Jessica,

I can only say that I hope that you provide feedback to them via the App Store, 
Twitter, etc, so they know that there are visually challenged people using 
their product.  Our only real enemy in these matters is silence.

Mark

Subject: Re: My 10 Favorite iOS Apps of 2016

Some of them are, I unfortunately don’t see that with the app for the credit 
union I currently bank with, which is accessible one minute, then in every 
other update they release, the interface changes so much that it has tons of 
unlabeled buttons, or several updates later, it becomes somewhat readable again 
aside from me wanting to transfer money from one account to another.  If I want 
to do that, I have to put my finger in various places on the screen, because 
the app either freezes when I try to scroll through it, or the cursor seems to 
not want to stay focused.  I remember the same thing being an issue with the 
shipt app until about 5 or 6 updates later, and I have no idea what was done to 
fix that.
