Hello Richard,

Basically I have just been having hard times activating links while browsing 
BARD in the BARD app.  This has been a problem for me running ios 10 and 11 on 
an iPhone 6, and now running ios 11 on my new iPhone 8.
I just set up my iPhone 8 last night, so the BARD app has just been downloaded 
to the phone.  I did notice an update in the app store this morning, so I 
updated it in hopes it might take care of the problem, but  the problem is 
still there.

Here are a few examples that I have experienced over the past 24 hours.

First Example:

Went to the Get Books tab, Double tapped Browse BARD at the bottom.
Use headings in the rotor to get to Previously Downloaded Books near the bottom.
When I double tap the link the new page does not load.  I just continue to sit 
on the main page.
As I said, I even scrolled down and searched the screen for the actual link and 
double tapped it that way.

Second example:

After going to the Get Books tab and double tapping Browse BARD.
I went to the Search box and typed The hard way, looking for a Jack Reacher 
Novel.
There were tons of results.  The book I was looking for was not on the first 
page of results, so I tried double tapping the next link to go to the next page 
of results, but nothing I did would take me to the next page.
I tried double tapping the next link both at the top and bottom, and using the 
combo box to choose page 2 and double tap the go button, but nothing worked.

Third example:

I did another search from the main page and found a Jack Reacher book.  This 
time when I double tapped the link for the book, it took me to the details page 
for that book.
Now I swiped down to the name of the book series and double tapped trying to 
get the list of books in the series, but nothing happened.
So I tried double tapping the back button to go back to the list of books, but 
I was stuck on the details page of that book.  The only way I could do anything 
was to close the BARD app, take it out of the app switcher, then restart it 
from scratch.

It looks to me like a voice over focus issue.  For some reason, links will just 
not activate for me, and as you can imagine, that makes browsing BARD in the 
app very difficult to almost impossible to do.
If you are not having these problems, then that is hope for me to just find out 
why I am.
I did try doing some google searches to see if I had any problems in Safari, 
but everything worked fine in Safari.

Any ideas or help would be appreciated.

Chris
