Hi,
Thanks for the tips. Actually, I showed it to one of my sighted coworkers
this morning and she got it going for me. Looks like a neat app.

Hi Tom,
I was able to get past the start screens. Turn VoiceOver off and swipe up 3
times to get to page 4 of the 4 introductory screens. Then turn VoiceOver
back on. There's a Get Started button near the bottom of the screen;
double-tap it. I haven't tried to do too much with the app, except poke
around a bit but it looks like it's pretty accessible.
Best,
Anna

Hi,
Quite some time ago I bought the book
"21 iPhone Apps We Can't Live Without"
by Judy Dixon and Doug Wakefield and loaded up on nearly everything listed
in the book. One of the recommended apps was something called Gate Guru,
which tells you about various airports, lets you track flights and so on.
Sounds pretty neat. I'd never had occasion to use the app, but I did
update it from time to time, thinking that accessibility would be
maintained as time went on and new releases were introduced.
Boy, was I wrong. Since I'm getting ready to travel in a few days, I
launched it and immediately slammed into a wall, figuratively speaking.
There's an image of some sort and a page control, neither of which can be
dealt with with VoiceOver.
Has anybody checked this app out recently, and is there a way to get past
the initial screen? The book description said that Gate Guru could be
really helpful, and if so, I'd like to check it out, but that spash
screen, if that's what it is, is really a bummer.
Any thoughts?
Tom
