Sighhh!I'll say it once AGAIN...There is NO accessibility problem with the 
Amazon Alexa app. There is ONLY a setting within the app that needs changing. 
Change the setting & problem solved! The step by step solution provided has 
been shared here & in another group at least 5 times.sighhh, I can share the 
how to get to the setting once again, I guess if needed.
