Re: Pandora Music app accessibility with VoiceOver

2020-02-18 Thread Barbara Stahl
I use the free version of pandora, the one with limited skips and all of the 
adds. 
It works just fine for me, no sound quality issues. 
I have noticed that it is a little less accessible with the recent updates. I 
used to be able to scroll through my station list and double tap the station I 
wanted and and pandora would start playing that station. However, with the 
recent update, I can no longer do this. Instead, I have to find the alphebet 
directory thing near the top of the screen do a vertical swipe to the letter my 
desired station is under and then slide my fingers on the screen til I hear the 
station I want and then the double tap works to activate the station.  Other 
than that, the app works great. I use it all the time.

I use Pandora on the Echo devices.  I listen to Mandisa Radio.  I 
think that is the best station on Pandora.  I let it play all day 
and all night.  When I am out, I let it play.

Re: Pandora Music app accessibility with VoiceOver

When I tried the Pandora app on my iPad Mini 4 a while back, it seemed very 
accessible.
I deleted it. I was willing to put up with either a somewhat degraded sound 
quality or ads, but the Pandora app was giving me both, so I dumped it.

Hello list,

So, the three month premium trial I was on with Spotify is ending. I therefore 
grabbed a two month Pandora premium trial. I hadn’t used Pandora in a bit as I 
generally try to rotate among premium offers and after going through Apple 
Music and Spotify, I’m now back to this one.

I remember towards the end of my last using Pandora, VoiceOver accessibility 
got a little more problematic. Not necessarily inaccessible, but rather over

Now that I’m back using Pandora, I’m experiencing these issues again. Another 
thing I’m noticing is that when I skip forward or back or thumbs up/thumbs

Re: Pandora Music app accessibility with VoiceOver

2020-02-17 Thread Joshua Hendrickson
I think its pretty accessible.  I got a one month trial version.  I
think I just might pay $5 per month for the full version as you can
skip as much as you want.  When it comes to skipping tracks, I usually
use a bluetooth speaker, or set of bluetooth headphones.  There is a
back button at the top of the screen and if you double tap that
button, you can then go through a list of your stations.  Sometimes if
I double tap on a station I want it doesn't always work.  Besides from
that annoying issue, it works very well.
