Hi Sherry,
I don't use Venmo but have it on my iPhone because it seems to be the electronic payment app of choice for the younger generations. I signed into it today and can confirm I experienced the same thing you did with the loading of contacts. When it didn't do this process quickly, I skipped the step. I didn't find the app to be totally accessible either and if I had to pay someone electronically on a regular basis and they didn't use an iDevice which supports payments with the Messages app, I would use the Square Cash app instead. I know this is of little help but I wanted to let you know I experienced the same issues with Venmo that you did.

I tried installing it today & have some issues. 1) Some of the privacy info & options were not readable with voice over 2) I clicked on load my contacts & the app was still loading 45 minutes later. I don’t have an excessive number of contacts, a little over 100. I finally skipped this step. 3) I was never prompted to enter any bank info for myself 4) when I went back into Venmo later, I expected to have to enter a password. One of the early steps in the install was to enter a password. The app opened without my entering a password. I have not tried to transfer money yet. Perhaps when I do, I will be prompted for bank info then. I want to wait until the app only opens with a password before I enter any bank info. Or maybe you only get prompted for a password when you try to transfer money? Has anyone else had these kinds of problems? Is there something I can do? Any info would be helpful.
