[BlindTlk] Walmart application accessibility

[Ericka]

The fact that iOS isn’t a high priority anymore is depressing since it makes more sense to me. My Walmart app never worked for me accessible anyhow so I deleted it long ago and have never used it. Walgreens never worked either for me anyhow. Now I rarely go because my medications are all Walmart.

You make a really good point about the changes to the System more than the actual app itself being the problem. Every time windows updates my husband‘s work computer goes berserk. You can’t always get in. He’s even tried to stop it from updating and it doesn’t always work.

Had reached out to Apple support to try and see if they could assess but they?d said to me that they do not assist with third-party applications. not able to find the place order button so I used the website on the Safari application and it seem to work fine. not sure if Walmart has an accessibility department or is aware of the voiceover application.
