RE: SiriusXM To Update Service And App: How Will This Affect Accessibility?
The nice thing about StarPlayrX is that it shows your favorites, which they call "All Stars" in numeric/alphabetic order. There seems to be some times a bit more momentary pauses while listening through StarPlayrX though. Richard, USA “Grandma always told us, “Be careful when you pray for patience. God stores it on the other side of Hell and you will have to go through Hell to get it.” -- Cedrick Bridgeforth My web site: https://www.turner42.com/ Microsoft Windows 11 Core Version 23H2 (OS Build 22631.2715), JAWS version 2024.2310.70.400 -Original Message- From: viphone@googlegroups.com On Behalf Of Ron Canazzi Sent: Friday, December 8, 2023 10:16 AM To: ViPhone List Subject: Re: SiriusXM To Update Service And App: How Will This Affect Accessibility? Hi Group, Hi Group, Here is a bit of an update on this thread I started last week. I have downloaded the app that is a kind of substitute interface for SiriusXM called starplayrx note the spelling when you search for it on the app store. It is a simpler interface with SiriusXM. It is not free and costs $4.99 a one time purchase. It is somewhat limited in that it does not give access to podcasts or something I am not sure of called XTRA channels. But you can get all the music, sports, talk, news and so on channels you want. You log in to set up the app using your SiriusXM user name and password and you are good to go. If siriusXm app updates break accessibility starplayrx is a good alternative--assuming that this alternative interface does not somehow get broken by the changes.

I agree, I'm always apprehensive when an application "improves" their interface, but since I dislike the SiriusXM interface so much, I'm being kind of optimistic. -- Christopher (AKA CJ) =>÷ Chaltain at Outlook, USA -Original Message- From: viphone@googlegroups.com On Behalf Of Corey Cook Sent: Thursday, November 30, 2023 6:29 PM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: RE: SiriusXM To Update Service And App: How Will This Affect Accessibility?
