I’ve also noticed, and I’m not sure if this is an app/voiceover issue, or an IOS 12 issue, that the last time I tried to find an item description in within the amazon app, the screen became really jumpy, and it took a lot of playing around with it just to get things back into focus. I haven’t seen that sense the early days when trying to browse the site on my mac, when the same thing would happen and the page would constantly refresh, then about a month later, amazon developed accessibility mode. > On Sep 21, 2018, at 1:27 PM, M.
