Hi, thanks to this message and Sieghard's positive results, I've gotten
this app and just booked my next hotel stay. The app is super friendly
to use, and things were straight forward. I highly recommend this app
for your next booking needs. Here I sound like I work for them or
something. <smile>. I know this message was written almost a month ago,
but still. I save messages like this because they are awesome.

Hello,
A while back I posted my very positive experience contacting Booking.com
who offer over 300,000 hotels via their website and app. I wrote to them
and mentioned that the app worked well, but that the search results list
was almost unuseable with Voiceover since it was extremely sluggish, you
couldn’t flick through the list of results and touching the screen in
different places did work, but it was sluggish and often unreliable and
repeated a lot of information.
I initially contacted them about a month ago, in Mid May. I received a
prompt reply that my feedback would be passed on to their development
team. About a week later the same person reported that the development
team would look into this and again a week or 10 days later (about 2
weeks ago) the same person again send me a message without me asking
saying that improvements had been made and would be available in the
upcoming update. The update took a while, but this morning it was in the
app store and I downloaded it right away and did a search for hotels in
Vancouver. I am very happy to say that now the list of search results
works perfectly, it is fast and you can right flick through the list,
Voiceover reads the hotel name and the starting price of the room rates
it found for the date you entered. You can then double tap on a hotel,
often there is more information given and even in the prior version,
once you got to that point actually making a reservation was no problem.
Booking.com does also work with Passbook and I find this very handy
since after I make a booking I can add it to Passbook and when I get to
the hotel I can, if necessary, just pull up the booking confirmation.
This is another example of a large company being very responsive and I
hope everybody who travels on a regular bases for pleasure or business
and who needs to make hotel reservations will give the Booking.com app a
try and hopefully take a few minutes to give them a good rating with a
comment that they are a happy Voiceover user of the app.
Regards,
Sieghard
