To get to the NFL channels, I was able to go into the search tab, type NFL in 
the search field and then tap the last unlabeled button to get to all of the 
team channels. Of course, I also have some of these channels marked as 
favorites, so they show up in my library.

Subject: My Analysis Of the SiriusXM and StarplayrX Apps

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.

For a nation to claim it has always been great, needs no improvement  and to
