Thanks for these tips. I will try them, but it was so simple to use before that it is a shame they felt the need to change.
Alison From: viphone@googlegroups.com <viphone@googlegroups.com> On Behalf Of Debby Sent: 20 September 2021 19:37 To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: RE: new Seven Little Words Hi Alison, Yes indeed this is definitely an update that broke things. I wrote to Blue Ox Family Games, the developer of 7 Little words, and below is the response I received: Hi Debby, The latest version of 7 Little Words does use a slightly different version of Voice Over which allows us to extend this game across both the iOS and Android platforms. As such, there are some modifications and we realize we have done a poor job of communicating them and are rushing a build out to remedy this. First off, here are the touch commands for navigating the game board for each puzzle: * swipe right and left to advance through the screen elements as before, but now you can swipe down and up to jump between the major screen sections (back button, clues, answer/spelling, tiles) * use a two finger tap to switch between reading by word or letter and two finger swipe to advance through each clue * when you select a tile as part of an answer, you remain in the tile section, which should reduce the number of swipes you need To note, the two-finger tap to switch the reading by word or letter will be switched to a three-finger tap in the next build as it sometimes caused confusion with the two-finger swipe. We have hired a blind accessibility contractor to help us make it as accessible as possible but we greatly appreciate your feedback on how we can do this better. Your feedback on the click noise for each move is something I will get addressed in a forthcoming build, so that if you decide to turn off the "sound effects" in the game, it will turn off this clicking sound as you swipe through the board. Please let us know if this is helpful and again appreciate any additional feedback you might have.

The enhancements make it much slower and it also seems to jump about. Is anyone else having better luck than me?
