Hello, I would like to hear from someone who has used this WeMo application before. Is it truely VoiceOver compatible, or not. I have done some research on my own and I have learned that you can actually send txt messages to the units to turn them on, but I can't find any accessibility reviews for them anywhere or for this application.
