Had you selected contact me by phone rather than by email, there would have
been an option to have someone call you. Yesterday, I went to this form,
filled in my phone number and the nature of the problem, all accessible,
clicked call me, and 10 seconds later, my phone rang and there was a person
to help me.
You can't get much more accessible than that.

Subject: Response from Amazon about Emailing Questions about Kindle for iOS
App

Hello, everyone.

A few users on this list have asked if there is an Amazon.com email address
to which to direct questions about the accessibility of the Kindle for iOS
app.  In an effort to answer this question, I went to the "Manage my Kindle"
page of my Amazon account and then clicked on "Kindle Support."  I then
selected my iPhone device from a list of registered Kindle devices.  From
there, one can choose "Contact Us"
and then choose email as the method of communication.  Once there, the user
may elect to use either the standard form or one designed for screen
readers.  In either case, the user is presented with some combo-boxes which
allow her or him to make choices which will direct the question to the
proper department.  So far, so good.

The trouble is that accessibility is not one of these choices.  I clicked on
the "Other Questions" choice and asked if there was a dedicated email
address to which to send queries about accessibility.
Within the hour, I got a response that my message had been sent to the
product development team.  From this reply, I gather that there is no email
address for accessibility.  The representative went on to say that if a user
has a question, she or he can fill out the form using any of the combo-box
choices, and Amazon will do its best to direct the question to the proper
department.  The representative also suggested that I download Michael
Iams's guide to VoiceOver on the Kindle for iOS app, using the link


http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00CL5NIGU

This guide is a decent summary, but if one knows VoiceOver gestures well,
very little in the way of new information can be gleaned from this little
book.
