When you first open the Walgreens app the screen comes up. I don't know what it is. But there is a button on there that you double tap. I don't think you even have to find it. You just double tap it and the app becomes accessible. The app is completely accessible. Although I don't like the layout of it Sometimes. But it does work. Honestly. I don't mean to be mean either. But sometimes you people just need to explore a little bit.
