I’m giving up on it and have deleted the app. It is such a shame as
it kept me sane during lockdown but I am just finding it too fiddly
and frustrating to use as it is now.
If it reverts to being more useable, please let us know and I’ll
reload it.

Hi Janet,
Yes, a sighted person would need to go to setting, and check the box
for text to speech.
By the way, two friends and I did the same thing Because we didn’t
have working eyes available, we completely deleted the app from our
phones and then downloaded it again. That brought speech back. If
you have purchased any puzzle packs you will need to restore those
purchases.
Take care and stay Safe!

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.

I have always enjoyed this word puzzled game on
my iPhone but the recent changes are really
making it frustrating to play. The enhancements
make it much slower and it also seems to jump
about. Is anyone else having better luck than me?
