Oh sure, I understand!

Hi Cheryl. It was more the point that I didn't have to do any messing around
with writing an email addresses or password into the edit fields to sign up. :-)

At least here I so far can't permanently change the focus except by using
explore mode and then pretty quickly double-tapping in another place to make
the action happen at least when voice view is talking. I don't use facebook
but even if I did I wouldn't think it easier to sign in with than the regular
sign-in and in any case I don't have to sign in very often but everybody has
different things they think are easier or harder.

I don't know, but even if you could, it wouldn't work for us over here in the
UK. I did however find out something quite interesting when I was having a
play with the app today. I did manage to get voice for you to stop talking
incessantly, you just have to make sure the focus isn't on a part of the
screen that is changing. I also did a bit of digging around in settings in
the navigation drawer. It is a tick box. When you press this, you can find
the option to either sign in or sign up. I decided to use my Facebook as my
sign in method as that just made things easier. I also discovered a tick box
in here that said pause instead of ducking. If this box is not ticked, the
audio stream will simply duck rather than pausing whenever there is a short
interruption. I have insured that this box is not ticked. Hopefully, that
might help some of you. I haven't played around with it too much, so don't
know if it makes a massive difference, but it certainly seemed better then
when I used the app on Friday.

I’m wondering if you can use Alexa to turn on and off voice view?

Hi. Here’s the response from the developer. Is it me or is this response
just not helpful at all? Not to mention he’s about 8 days ahead of us. Lol.

Hello Kerry,
Thank you for contacting us regarding this issue. I’m sorry to hear that the
VoiceView feature on your Amazon Fire 8HD is continually speaking over a
radio station’s brodcasting content. I’ll be happy to help you.
We suggest you temporarily turn off the VoiceView feature while you’re
listening to a radio station. For this you may use your two fingers and
swipe from top to bottom, like you do when you have to unlock the Kindle.
You will reach to Settings, tap on it, then reach Accessibility, over there
turn off the voice command mode. Double tap again on this voice command mode
to turn it on again.
Alternatively, you may contact Amazon’s customer service at their toll free
phone number 0800 496 1081 if you’re based in the United Kingdom, they may
be able to provide you with further assistance on how to best configure the
VoiceView so it doesn’t interrupt any other apps.
If you have any other questions, do not hesitate to contact us back.
Sincerely,
Vincenth
