Hi Shawn, I am in Smithers, BC and also updated not thinking much about it. So I just had a look and while Voiceover said "What search field" or something like that, at first I could not activate edit mode with a double tap, I tried the pass through and nothing worked. I could not even flick left and right, moving my finger around would read some stuff like Banks, Restaurants, Shopping etc.
Anyhow, I also saw something about Location and at some point something did work and the app asked if I wanted to allow Location Services, I did that and suddenly the search box worked, I tried to type in "Safeway" and it pulled up the information. But I must say the app is not as easy to use as before and I'll definitely send an email to the developers and let them know that they should address accessibility. I think I still have the old version on my computer and I may downgrade again since I also used the app quite a bit. There are lots of other apps for finding businesses, but it was nice to have it for people. Of course you could always put a shortcut to www.Canada411.com on the home page, that is also a good site and it's what I use on the computer. By the way, if you have an iPhone 4S and if you upgraded to iOS 6 you can now ask SIRI "Show me electronics stores near me" just as an example. SIRI is now able to do local business searches in Canada.

Hi guys. I was trying to look up electronics businesses to find a cheap Sirius XM receiver so I had a couple of ideas of stores I would look for. So anyway, when I was trying to use the Canadian Yellow Pages app, I was unable to find the search edit box to type in my inquiry. So has anyone from Canada used the Yellow Pages app successfully? It was accessible before so I don't know why they took away accessibility in this update. -- Shawn Sent from my white MacBook using SamNet -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the "VIPhone" Google Group.
