Hello,Mark and everyone. With the font text size slider set to 50% and "Reduce Motion" set to "on," I'm still getting skipping. My network is AT&T, and I'm using an iPhone 5 running iOS 8.3. A good example of this is the "report spam" button in the Gmail app. The only way to find this item is by a careful review of the screen. I realize this is not a native app,but I'm wondering if some buttons and functions are programmed differently and are hence not showing up via VoiceOver. Unfortunately, I can't verify the presence of the visual display cursor Mark noted.
