Hi, We did switch from Time Warner to FIOS in the latter part of February, although I was uncertain about the accessibility of their FIOS Mobile app, which allows users to watch TV on an iDevice. Actually, before we switched, I did write a message to this list, asking if anyone was using the

There seems to be two different apps: I think that the FIOS Mobile app is used for streaming TV and movies. The app for paying bills and other account stuff is the My FIOS app. I've been trying to figure out if the FIOS Mobile app is useable with Voiceover so that we can stream live TV if we

I agree that it has improved; however, my husband and I have been using the TWC app to watch TV on both the iPhone and the iPad for about two years. It hasn't been perfect, but, it has been pretty accessible. When we select the live TV tab, the shows are arranged for us by networks A to Z.
