That was a good description of the tabs. The app is called Siriuus XM.
There must be something about the inflection of my voice. I’ve tried various ways of spacing the words, or being careful to enunciate clearly, at least I think I am doing that. I have no trouble opening, say, BARD Mobile or NFB Newsline, or calling from contacts, usually, although I have had trouble with some names. But it’s always this one app I have trouble getting Siri to open, and so I have to find it and open it manually. Admittedly I have a 5S I can’t afford to upgrade right now. I speak pretty well even though I didn’t until I was four due to some developmental issues, and I had to have some speech training in elementary school, but once I did, people couldn’t shut me up. Those developmental issues stemmed from the same source that caused my visual impairments, and eventually total blindness.

If you know the channle that you are looking for, it’s easiest to search for that channel in the search tab. If you want to browse by category, you want the channel tab. They have improved accessibility some recently. The app is pretty good now. Good luck. I love my Sirius/XM. Not sure why it’s not working for Bill, but I can get Siri to open Sirius/XM by saying open XM every time. I wonder if this is working for anyone else?

We have xm radio, and we just signed up on the site to listen to it online, and it sounds really great, better than we thought it would, and we'd like to get the app. Thank you.
