Hi Group,
I sent this one to another list, but that is a more general tech list
and not an Apple list.
Hi Group,
I also got the error with the StarplayrX app. It says 'error logging in;
your IP address has been blocked for 24 hours because of too many log-in
errors.' This is odd because I can still log in with my SiriusXM App
and can connect without any issues.
As concerns the SiriusXM app itself, it is a definite decline in
accessibility. I can get to many areas, but the app is much more
graphical and has a huge amount of clutter that VoiceOver just doesn't
handle properly. When I wanted to go to the NFL portion of sports, it
took me five minutes to do this. Now maybe I'll get used to it and it
will take less time over the next weeks and months, but it is bad in
several ways. I am not sure,but I think that the screens are like a
roller item because once I am on a particular page, I never seem to
reach the tabs at the bottom. I see the various tabs, but I used to do a
three finger swipe a few times and get to the bottom where the tabs were
located or I could move slowly with one finger over the screen until I
reach an area near the bottom and I would see the tabs. It is as if the
tabs are moving or in the middle of the page or something I am not sure
of. Using the three finger swipe up and down to turn pages is now
essential, but it is never as accurate as using the single finger
left/right to move item by item. More and more apps seem to be
switching to this method and display more information per screen but
give you less movement with screen reader commands. Spectrum TV app
changed to that kind of interface in September and I am finally getting
somewhat use to it. It is still much more difficult and less accurate to
get to a particular station than it used to be.
I have reported this via the settings/feedback to both the SiriusXM App
and the StarplayrX app developers and hopefully (I doubt it) they may be
able to restore some accessibility. Yes, the items generally speaking
do read and identify, so given enough time, I can find things.
When I first logged onto the SiriusXM app, it asked me to enable Siri
for the app. I thought this might enable me to give a command such as:
Siri, open the NFL portion of the SiriusXM app' but this does not work.
I wonder what you can do with the SiriusXM app and Siri.
