Re: a Reliable Weather App

[Robin Frost]

Hi,

I'm way behind in list mail so if others have mentioned this I beg your pardon in advance.

I have loved Weather Bug for many years but its most recent 2 updates have significantly broken accessibility and I've told them so via feedback within the app itself and via Twitter.

In short the broken accessibility is most noticeable in its "now" summary screen where VoiceOver is now unable to find much of anything to voice and on their cards order screen which is where one could reorder the order in which the elements of the now summary would appear as you swiped through them on screen.

Richard to find the remove ad thing again tap the menu button in the top left corner of the screen and with a bit of moving about it'll appear again near the settings element on the screen. However, sadly even with ads gone the accessibility issues remain.

I did get a response to them acknowledging my submission but not indicating when a fix might appear.

I hope that helps.

Take good care.

Robin

Well, Weather bug has so many ads it is difficult to navigate.

I flicked by something about removing ads, but cannot easily find it again.

This one will take lots of patience and since I already have a couple other apps that work great for my location, I would not recommend this without paying whatever it asks for to remove ads.

"You know," said Arthur, "it's at times like this, when I'm trapped in a Vogon airlock with a man from Betelgeuse, and about to die of asphyxiation in deep space, that I really wish I'd listened to what my mother told me when I was young."

"Why, what did she tell you?"

"I don't know, I didn't listen."
