Hello Richard, After receiving your post, I downloaded several e-books from Over Drive and attempted to read them via VoiceOver and via my Braille display.
For a host of reasons, including display bleed-through, it is my opinion that, at this time, while the iOS version of Over Drive is accessible for use with audio books, it is not VoiceOver accessible for use with e-books, in terms of convenient page navigation. This is to say, while the actual text of a page can be read via VoiceOver, the page/e-book navigation controls, for all intent and purposes, are inaccessible.

I would like to use over drive as if I choose to find books. so far, if I find sue grafton book such as w is for wasted which is the name of title she wrote, can I find page number in braille display???? reason is that bookshare.org doesn't have page numbers for this book, and it has chapters. that is wonderful. but the problem is if I am reading the chapter, and when I go through in middle or three-fourth of chapter, then phone rings or doorbell rings I have to leave it and go over to answer phone or door. it would take time and come back, the iphone is off and I would turn it back on and I don't know where I am at where I leave. I would use advance button and keep hittingseveral times without knowing which page is and even not knowing where to find where I leave off. it would be wise to locate page number and then it would be easier to save time and cut down stress looking as bookmark is not very helpful. if over drive do provide page numbers, then it would be great deal to be hepful and it would cut down tensions and then can enjoy finishing the book. thank you! sincerely, rich -----Original Message----- From: M.

There is a way to change the location in an audio book by other than the 15-second buttons and the section heading buttons. However, it kind of depends upon how much useable vision, if any, you possess. If you can locate the scrub bar, located just above the controls, described above, you can single-finger, double-tap and hold while moving your finger in order to fast-forward or rewind through the title. As implied, while this feature can be engaged with VoiceOver enabled, actually locating the scrub bar can be a bit of a challenge. So much so that I usually don't bother to use it. I find that jumping by section headings is good enough for me.

However, I am wondering if there is any other method of fast forwarding and rewinding other than the 15 seconds button shown or having to go back a hole chapter at a time. Thanks for any help in this matter. I downloaded the new RS Games app onto my IPhone 6s and am having a couple issues that I’m wondering if it is just me. Firstly, whenever I send a chat message the background music goes away. Secondly, the speech will go away in the middle of a game and I will have to dump the game and go back in. This happens quite often. I tried unloading voiceover and just use the built in speech but does the same thing. This happens with both the Alex voice and any of the others. Is anyone else finding these bugs as well?
