Hi Andy

We are talking of different apps then, (smile).  The one I have, that used
to be very accessible with VoiceOver, but which isn't so good any more, is
called Sky Sports.  It isn't a subscription app, just one where you used to
be able to double tap on the various sports stories, but which is difficult
to navigate since an update.  Instead, for now, I use the BBC Sport app, and
Fotmob of course!


Kind Regards,

Jackie Cairns

Hi Jackie -

If we are talking about the same app, which on my phone is called 'football
sc', then yes, certainly the bits of it I use are still accessible, which is
for the most part the 'news/media tab. So, if it's the same app, which bit
for you isn't behaving as it did?

I can generally get live commentary on my team, [one way or another] but the
problem was when abroad, as FiveLive,  and Talk Sport, are not permitted to
broadcast games [other than champions league] to Europe. this is where
Fotmob comes in, as they can, for some reason -

Andy
