Thanks Iain, it is reassuring to know it isn't me. I must try to contact them
because it is so frustrating at the moment.
Kind regards,

Hi Jackie
There seems to be a VoiceOver issue with the app. I can get the app to crash
when i try to access a skill. However, my wife is able to access the skills
with no problems when VoiceOver is switched off. Perhaps the app developers
need to be contacted.

Does anyone know the web page we can use for Alexa in addition to, or

I have got a little further with the app, but gosh it is so hit or miss that
I really don't enjoy the experience. For example, if I go to the Skills tab
and actually manage to activate it, there are items on there like UK Train
Times, the Guardian, and I think Radio Player. But after adding the skill
to a couple, my time is up, and the app stops opening the links, meaning I
have to close it down altogether and start again. So I am wondering,
following a conversation with Shaun this morning when we were recording, if
the website is any better. I have put in several searches, but I don't see
an actual site that lets you add skills, clear searches etc.
I am about to go away for the weekend, but will tackle the Android version
on my return. It would be nice if it worked on the BrailleNote Touch, but
I'll try that too.
Thanks for any suggestions.
Kind Regards,
Jackie Brown
