Hello everyone, My husband got hold of Kobo 5.9 from the UK appstore and signed in with my Kobo ID. He then turned VoiceOver on and handed it to me. On the Home screen, I tapped the Library button and on the Library screen, I selected All from the bottom toolbar. I could read the titles and aut

Speaking of which. I found a link on Applevis site regarding the app in question. It is labeled as inaccessible. Those of you who use this app can comment on the site and discuss it there. Here is the link. http://www.applevis.com/ios-app-directory/books/kobo-books On Dec 18, 2012, at 23:38, A

Hello Paula, I'm afraid my version of Kobo may be different from yours as I'm in France and have the Kobo by FNAC version, which is the only one I can get here. You could try having someone sighted look at it with VoiceOver off, but I see that Jane hasn't had much luck with that approach. It se

Hello Orin, When you first open the Kobo app, assuming you've already bought a book from the Kobo website, you'll find the Library button at the bottom left of the screen. The button is just above the label saying Library. Tap this button and you'll be on a screen containing, at the top, the fo

Hello Dónal, I've been using the Kobo app on my iPhone for almost three years now and once set up correctly, it's thoroughly accessible. Kobo books can also be read on the Mac with Adobe Digital Editions. I can't remember the authorisation process on the Mac as it's a long time since I did it.
