The answer to that is they don't think of blind people when designing an app made to access TV and movies. Most people don't think we enjoy visual entertainment, so I'm not surprised.

You know, I can never figure that out! Why do companies that want us blinks to spend our money with them, and originally put out a good accessible app, all of a sudden an update comes out and bingo; no more accessibility! I can think of many stores, shops and service providers; with garbage apps, and some with garbage websites!

I just called HuLu customer support and talked to a very nice person who totally understood and agreed with my complaints. I wrote a negative review in the App store. I hope that the complaints from blind and sighted users will make an impact, but in the meantime the app sucks. I will wait for a couple of weeks to see if they update the app and improve it, and if not, I will cancel my account.

Lisa, you're correct. There was a time when it didn't work too well, but I did have some workarounds. This time it appears totally inaccessible as from what I can see. I won't get rid of it today. I will wait maybe for another update. Let me know if they answer your email about making it accessible.

Yes, same here. I guess that's an extra $8.49 I can put toward more accessible apps. ,sigh>

I'm going to try to write to them first to at least see if they're interested in making it work. If I remember correctly, it started working after one of the updates in the 4.X build, but I don't think they put any extra voice over access into it.

Lisa, I am so disappointed. I had updated the app but had not looked at it. It appears to be totally in accessible. instead of having a Watch list you now have my stuff. Anything you tap on you can't read any of the results. I am really thinking about canceling it. I have had it for at least five years and had no problems up until now. I hadn't used it for a while because I mainly use it with the new shows. Everything was re runs so I just was waiting until the new season. Oh well.

Hi, all.

I'm using an iPhone SE with iOS 10.3.3 and the latest version of Hulu issued Wednesday. This is version 5.6. Since updating this app I can't get past the first screen. It tells me to swipe to get started, and then there are four pages which I can move to, but I can't get any additional info about the app or it's programming. I've been a hulu subscriber for a while, and their recent offerings have been fine as far as accessibility goes. I'm wondering if there's a workaround, such as turning VO off and tapping on something to get past this introductory screen. I can't tell if there's something even on the screen, but I'm assuming there is something but VO can only read that small part of it.

TIA for the help/info.

Lisa
