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.

Okay, want to give some pointers? When I launch the app, VoiceOver reads
absolutely nothing, so how is that accessible?

Hmmm, not to be contrary with anybody else on this list, but I’ve found the
Walgreen’s app sufficiently accessible to enable me to:
- use the “Refill Prescription” feature reasonably effectively – scanning
the bar code is a bit challenging but not impossible by any means
- searching through weekly specials is fine
- locating a “store” is very usable
- the coupon feature is a bit dicey because I suppose it’s only a picture
of coupons
Is it 100% accessible? No.
Does it take some practice to use some of the accessible features
efficiently? Certainly!
Is it an app I enjoy using and can accomplish given tasks? Absolutely!
Is it pricey? Not at all – it is free.
Would I recommend it to other totally blind iPhone users? That is exactly
what I’m doing here!
One pointer on using the “Refill” feature; the bar code is typically on the
right side of the label, but you need to turn the bottle on its’ side to scan
it correctly because that bar code is positioned sideways on the right side of
the script label. And some items – those that come in boxes rather than those
plastic bottles – present a bit more of a challenge. Just remember that the
bar code is positioned sideways on the right of the script label and you should
be able to locate and scan it.
One thing, if you don’t get it right (scanning the bar code that is) the
app immediately informs you of an invalid script number. And if you get some
wrong number, unless it just happens to be a script number belonging to you it
will not process.
Personally, I wouldn’t be without the Walgreen’s app, it’s much more
convenient than having to look up a script number and call it in. And, yes, I
am totally blind so cannot use any residual sight to help me use this app.
