Hi, Anna.
Yes, this is the method I used.
Hmm, so iOS doesn't recognize the name change even though the app called
Voice Dream Scanner has been moved to my OCR folder using regular VO
edit functions. To clarify, I've found the app with the new title using
VO and activated it and closed it with no issues.
I'm assuming there's something under the hood that the average VO user
cannot change which will change what VO really sees when you have focus
on an app.
If not than I'm totally confused. Not your fault, it's mostly my
default setting. <grin>

Hi Lisa,
I assume that when you say you changed the name of the app, you did the
two-finger double-tap and hold gesture and typed in a name. Is that right? If
so, that changes the label VoiceOver reads, but I don't think it changes the
name of the app as far as iOS is concerned. I don't think there's a way to
actually rename an app.
Best,
Anna

Hi, all.
I just downloaded the Voice Dream Scanner app and so far I really like it. I
only tried scanning mail free hand, but I'm guessing it will rival Seeing AI
when I use my Stand Scan to do a better job stabilizing the phone.
My issue is that when the app installed the default name was Scanner. I have
another app called Scanner that is an Emergency/Police frequency scanning app.
I renamed the Voice Dream app to Voice Dream Scanner and then moved the newly
named app to my OCR folder on the home screen.
Now when I use handwriting to bring up apps starting with the letter V I get
Voice Dream, which is the Voice Dream Reader, and the Voice memos app that
comes pre-installed on the phone.
The letter S brings up several apps starting with S including Scanner, but this
is the original Scanner radio app.
I tried using handwriting and tested with a lower case and then an upper case V
and got the same results.
I double-checked that the Voice Dream Scanner app was successfully renamed, and
that there were no other punctuation or special characters. I verified that it
did start with the letter V as in Victor and not B as in Bravo.
Still no Joy.
Any thoughts?
Lisa
