Re: The Native iOS News App: It's Right There Waiting for You
Yes, for some content providers, the advertisement refreshes cause VoiceOver to hiccup. Usually a two finger swipe down works and if not, then a touch to find article text and then a two finger swipe down starts reading again. Certainly not as easy to read as NFB Newsline, but then Apple tries to give you a fair selection of different views and sources. When I use NFB Newsline, I almost always go to the same 3 sources to read my news.

Re: The Native iOS News App: It's Right There Waiting for You
Hi Mark, How are you getting around the screen refreshes? When I open an article, and have VO start reading, I’ll hear the sound as if a web page finishes loading and VO stops reading. The only way to get VO to start reading again is to start from the beginning of the article. Other than that, I agree with you. Blessings, Brian > On Mar 16, 2017, at 11:20 AM, M.

The Native iOS News App: It's Right There Waiting for You
Hello All, Recently, in addition to my third-party news apps, I have started using the native iOS app on my iPhone. The app has really come a long way in terms of being VoiceOver accessible. With the built-in notifications settings for many of its news channels, and given how easily one can (1) save articles for later viewing and (2) easily share articles to popular social media outlets, I am finding it remarkably convenient and fun to use. So, give it a try if you have not done so. The native iOS news app, it's right there waiting for you. Mark -- The following information is important for all members of the Mac Visionaries list.
