Richard,

I did use this app to download a BookShare title but found no good way to move past the copywrite text. If you tap the editor button, you get a message stating that the document is too large to edit. It's a shame as this could be a really great app for reading but has some major accessibility issues that currently don't make it a great choice for a blind user IMHO. As others have already stated, the real text area where one can interact with the text with various gestures is totally invisible to VO. I do plan to contact the author and give this feedback. It's interface to BookShare is pretty nice and straight forward so I hope the app gets better.

Actually, what i would really like to see is the Read2Go app simply added more supported file formats and it would be perfect. I haven't purchased it for that very reason, only BookShare books are supported and for $20 I would want more formats, at least text, PDF, and epub without DRM of course.



Best,

Rick alfaro

navigate passed the notice?
That is rather easy to do with Read2Go.
Plus, you can have access to the text, which also means you can read with a 
braille display if you use VoiceOver instead of the Acapella voice.
Thanks,
Richard

Hi,
No, unfortunately you can't do that, as voice over doesn't see any text in a 
text box. I have written to the author with suggestions on how to make this 
text Boxmore accessible, so we'll see what happens. I still think for pleasure 
reading this is an awesome app.

Except for the question of how to access a particular word in the text using
VoiceOver.  Or at least, I have not found a way to do that.

Hi kim,

Basically it is another way to read books or documents. there is a Welcome
and a help document in the lite version. reading these will answer all your
questions.

Cheers,
Brett.

How do I use this?  I'm trying the light version and went through the
short set up.  So far I haven't found instructions nor a description
of what the app does.

Thanks for pointing me in the right direction.

Kim
