The issue with several OTR apps is that it is impossible to select a specific 
program episode once you’ve picked the season.  Here’s the scenario:

- open the Gunsmoke app
- select the season (i.e. 1952)
- Now, trying to select a specific episode from 1952 is impossible with 
VoiceOver in play
- shutting down VoiceOver will allow one to select an episode, it’s just that 
if totally blind there’s no way to know which episode you’re activating
- if VoiceOver is left on in the “Select Episode” list it appears the cursor is 
stuck on the status line.
- Shutting off VoiceOver to select just any episode will play a random episode, 
but turning VoiceOver back on while streaming the randomly selected episode 
results in annoying alarm sounds with still no possibility of selected a 
specific episode

This is the case with the OTR apps from Appsstation!

Bill,

I'm sorry you're having issues with the specific OTR program apps and iOS 13.x. 
The app OTR Streamer seems to be working fine in iOS 13.2.3 but I don't know 
how it compares with the specific OTR program apps in terms of content or 
quality.

Subject: OTR Apps Broken in iOS 13.all

With the advent of iOS I�ve become an Old Time Radio fan and have several OTR 
apps (i.e.  , Johnny Dollar, Challenge of the Yukon, etc).

However, since I�ve installed iOS 13 on my iPhone 8, these apps no longer work 
effectively with VoiceOver.  Apparently, a number of these apps are essentially 
the same program - only being named differently to identify the suite of OTR 
episodes to access (eg, the Gunsmoke app accesses Gunsmoke episodes and the 
Johnny Dollar app will likewise access only those specific episodes).  I�m able 
to select the season (eg, Gunsmoke episodes from 1952) but when attempting to 
select a specific episode the app seems to be stuck on the status line.

If I turn VoiceOver off, i can then select one of the episodes for that season, 
but with no idea as to which episode i�m selecting.  This is not a problem if 
one can read the screen visually.

I have written to the developer of this app(s) and have not gotten any feedback.

For this reason, if anybody is still using a pre-13 iOS and uses these apps I 
urge them to not install iOS 13 of any version.
