When I upgraded our iPad 3 and my iPhone 4S to the final release version of

effort along with consultation with the blind to build a fully accessible

tested their iOS app, everything I've tried has been accessible. Shop
Unfortunitally I cannot try this as it says that the browser (safari 6) is not
supported at this time but those of you using firefox nightly can tell us using
