Poory designed for use by low vision and blind – Bible Audio Review

When I heard about this app, I was excited because as a blind person, many apps that are primarily designed for the sighted such as youversion Bible, online Bible, etc although well labelled and functional for the blind do not allow things like speeding up audio Bibles, et. However, this app is only marginally usable by the blind. And, it requires a LOT of trying things to find what you are doing. About half of the buttons ARE NOT LABELLED!!! None of the buttons which move you places are labelled. The play pause button IS NOT LABELLED! When I did a subscription, it told me that I needed to log in so that I can download the audio Bible onto my other apple devices. But, that screen disappeared and I cannot find any way to “log into faith gateway” on the app after that screen had disappeared. So, who knows what will happen, or how I am supposed to allow my other devices to have the audio Bible versions downloaded onto them. I would have thought that any app designed for audio use would have been set up and tested for use by the blind and low vision. But, that definitely is NOT the case here. In addition to not being able to identify a number of buttons, I found that when I went to try and select a book of the Bible to go to that I had to flick through 9 things that did nothing but click before I got to the book of Genesis. There is nothing that tells you this, but apparently you can only select a book of the Bible an a chaptedr. You cannot tell it to go to a specific verse. But there is nothing to tell you things like that. There is not any help area with a guide that I could find in the app. When it comes to the Bible plans, ther e is nothing to. Tell you how they work nor on the plan for the old/new testaments does it tell you whether it is a year plan or what it is. The same is rue for several other reading plans. Also, regarding reading plans, it does not tell you what book of the Bible it is reading from. It simply tells you a chapter number and starts reading. (Assuming that you found the unlabeled play/pause button) To be truthful, other than the fact that you can adjust the speed of playing the audio, this app is absolutely designed for ONLY the sighted..... VERY DISAPPOINTING!!!!!
