Problem solved. That effing screen recognition got turned on somehow.
I just thought to check that. It is off and all is normal again. Sorry for the time waste.

But I too haven't upgraded and am still on 15 point whatever it is so that may be another reason I haven't experienced the problem I don't know. I'm sorry this happened on a weekend when your talking book library won't be open and I don't know if the bard people respond to tech support rrequests on a weekend or not but hopefully they or apple will be able to help.

I had to click on the ok button or whatever it was twice to get rid of the message, but that was it. Everything is working normally. I have not yet upgraded to 16, so maybe that's the difference? This is a Xr, but I haven't tried on my old 7+ yet.

There is no rewind button, there is an unlabeled button that ends up being the jump to next part, chapter, etc. The Fast Forward is labeled FF. There is no Speed control slider. None of the tabs along the bottom work. I cleared the app switcher and rebooted the phone. Nothing changed. I deleted the app. It was a nightmare getting logged back in. I had to toggle VO off a couple of times to proceed. Once signed back in, I was able to go to previous downloads and redownload the book, The Vanishing Half by Brit Bennett, our book club book for October. However, there is no difference. The app is useless. IN this case, I found that Bookshare has the same recording, just added on September 28, 2022. So, I can get back to the book with the same reader in the same lace I was and not having to switch to the synthesized voice since I am used to the reader, and like her very much. I wrote NLS immediately. If you get the warning about their network, I hope you don’t end up in the same mess, but I suspect you may.
