Andrew, Screen recognition is meant to be used with apps & websites that are mostly or completely unaccessible with voiceover. I am not saying that screen recognition will make all unaccessible apps accessible. I think, but don't hold me to this assumption; The coding of apps & websites I think plays a part in whether screen recognition improves the apps or website accessibility. Why screen recognition completely makes accessible apps & websites unusable, I have no clue, unless it has something to do with the feature is coded. Screen recognition is still in its infancy phase & needs a lot of improvement. I hope Apple has made improvements to screen recognition in IOS 15. I use several apps & websites that wouldn't be accessible without screen recognition.
